Chapter 1144:

The production team had clearly said that to encourage Milly and Watkins to interact, much to the audience’s delight. Everyone, except Howard, seemed eager to watch Milly help Watkins next.

Milly, upon hearing the director’s words, immediately shifted into “work mode.” She nodded seriously, surveyed the progress of the others, and then headed over to Watkins’s side.

Evie, having helped Milly put the ingredients in the kitchen, didn’t hear the conversation between Milly and the director. When she emerged, she saw that Milly had already gone to Watkins.

“Oh no, why is she with Watkins now?” Evie muttered to herself, quickly closing the distance between her and Milly.

“Evie, are you here to help me too? Thank you so much!”

At that moment, Watkins looked at Milly and Evie with gratitude, as if they were his saviors. His heart swelled with appreciation.

“You guys have really saved my bacon. I thought everyone was going to go hungry tonight because of me.”

Evie couldn’t bear to listen to Watkins’s pitiful words, and in that instant, she forgot her original purpose of keeping Milly apart from him. She responded without hesitation, “Well, there’s still half an hour left. Let’s work together. We can totally finish this.”

Without missing a beat, she plopped down onto the grass, immediately starting to search for usable materials alongside Milly.

The production crew had only given Watkins part of the materials, leaving them with the task of crafting the gnomon for the sundial themselves.

Milly grabbed a carving knife, scanning the area for a suitable branch.

Then, she began carefully shaping a straight willow branch.

“Use this. We just need to carve the markings, and it’ll be good to go.”

With their combined efforts, the sundial was finally complete.

Meanwhile, the production team was counting down the last three minutes.

“Let’s hurry and take the sundial to the director.”

“Okay.”

Watkins grabbed the sundial and rushed to the director. He held his breath, waiting for the verdict, praying the sundial would tell the right time according to the sun’s shadow.

“Is it accurate?” Watkins asked anxiously, his eyes fixed on the director. The director glanced at the sundial, then at his digital watch, and finally announced, “Congratulations, Watkins, your task is complete! Here’s your reward for completing it.”

“Great!”

Watkins beamed, accepting the ingredients. He exchanged a triumphant glance with Milly and Evie, feeling the sweet satisfaction of their shared accomplishment.

In the live broadcast room, fans who witnessed the scene capturing their camaraderie were quick to share screenshots.

“Finally, I can breathe a sigh of relief.”
