As they stood by the river's edge, Mike approached, his expression filled with regret. "Janette, I'm sorry for not believing you earlier. I see now that something is off with Smartland, and I vow to find out the truth."

Janette turned to face him, her eyes softening as she saw the sincerity in his gaze. "Thank you, Mike," she replied, her voice wavering. "It means a lot to me."

Mike nodded, his determination resolute. "Let's work together, as a team, to uncover the truth about Smartland. And remember, Jade isn't a bad person. She accepted me when no one else would, just like she did for you."

Janette took a deep breath, her anger beginning to subside. She realized that her frustration had clouded her judgment, and she had let her emotions get the better of her. Emma's unwavering support and Mike's understanding reminded her that they were all in this together, and unity was the key to their success.

As they rejoined the crew, Janette's heart felt lighter, and she embraced the sense of camaraderie she had missed. Together, they vowed to investigate Smartland thoroughly and expose any darkness that lay within.

In the days that followed, the crew worked tirelessly, piecing together clues and delving into Smartland's background. As they uncovered more and more unsettling information, they realized that Janette's dream might not be as unfounded as they had initially thought.

With renewed determination and a united front, they approached Jade, who, despite their previous disagreement, welcomed them with open arms. Together, they set out to confront Mr. Omar and uncover the truth behind Smartland's facade of innocence.

In the face of uncertainty and doubt, their bond grew stronger, and they leaned on each other for support. Emma, Janette, Jade, Karl, and Mike were more than just a team—they were a family, bound together by their shared purpose and the strength of their friendship.
