The Secret Successor CHAPTER 496
At Lynn Trills, an open restaurant owned by the Lynn family.Teresa was waiting at the table, observing the birds that were put in cages for display. Their chirping noises made the atmosphere pleasant to her ears.“Did I keep you waiting for long?” Kyra came and sat across the table.“This is a good place, so I don’t mind it,” Teresa said. “How are you doing?”This sort of friendly attitude was not what Kyra expected from this old lady. She understood that Teresa must want something from her. “I’m doing fine. Do you need some sort of help from me?”Teresa smiled a little. “Actually, it’s the opposite.”“Opposite?”Teresa took a file out of her handbag and put it before Kyra. After seeing the pictures in that file, Kyra couldn’t help but frown. Those were pictures of Amelie and Roddick meeting in some animal park. What was even more shocking was that Natasha also seemed to be somewhere in the picture.“It’s not a quality image because these people were in the background,” Teresa said.

In a beauty parlor in the evening.“Have you seen this?” Skarlett showed her sister the new video that Russell uploaded.“He doesn’t even have 50,000 subscribers,” Natasha snorted. “I have 250,000 now. My makeup tutorial video was seen by over 42 million people. What’s his highest viewed video? I doubt it even has a million views. He’s not even my competition, sis. I utterly crushed him without even really trying. Even if he makes a thousand videos, he’ll not get a hundredth of the attention that I received. That’s just how useless he is.”“Haha, you’re right. You have a lot of male as well as female subscribers, but his content is so bad that he’s struggling to have subscribers,” Skarlett remarked. “I thought he was going to succeed when he started making videos with Kyra with her face hidden, but that didn’t last long. So, now, I’m sure his subscribers will demand videos with her, or at least ask him the reason behind divorce. ”“Even if he doesn’t tell them, I’ll leak some informat

After checking his weight in the weighing machine, Russell used the foot massager mat for a minute and found it very stimulating as well as relaxing.He left the car there and began to explore the place on foot. He came across a tripartite shop where one could choose to shoot in three ways: Bows, guns, and darts.Russell chose the bows because the quality of the bows were quite good, and he never held a bow before. The arrows had blunt tips, which was expected. He only had to pay only one dollar for every attempt. A deer hologram was made to run around in the square room right before his eyes, and he had to shoot it.Russell quickly shot at the deer when it briefly stopped and looked at him, but the arrow grazed past its back. “Ah! Just missed it!”“You can try again, sir,” the worker, who was a pretty young lady, said. “You can use the VR goggles if you want.”“VR goggles?” Russell looked at her a bit confusedly. But then she gave him a pair of goggles.“It helps you focus on the dee

In a huge hangar-like tent, many professional gamers were test-playing the game in their zones. At one end, there was a big table where twenty people could sit around it, but only Charlotte and Regan were sitting there. The others were busy observing the professional gamers use the VR gear to play the game. “This neural gear is working much better than I expected,” Charlotte was smiling very much. “The professional gamers who played the game for 20 hours yesterday had their brain functions checked, and their vitals were better than those who work at a desk for eight hours.” “That’s because we fed them all a proper diet in the morning,” Regan said. “A glass of lemon water which helps create white blood cells, a banana for energy and improving cholesterol, a guava for fiber and for keeping hunger in check. These three must be included in breakfast. On top of those three, we’ll then allow them to eat the fourth item of their choice. This is the rule I put for all the gamers. I’ve used i

Russell carried four flasks and some biscuits and chocolates along with some small plates in his bag. When he entered Regan’s view, his expression froze for a second. As Russell served every person sitting at the table, he kept staring a bit speechlessly.Charlotte, on the other hand, found herself smiling through her eyes after seeing Russell serving coffee. She waited until he came to her and said, “I don’t eat biscuits and chocolates, so just coffee is fine.”Russell poured coffee in a paper cup and put it on the table.“Do you want me to pick it up with my own hands?” Charlotte snorted.For a second, Russell didn’t understand what she said.“Who taught you work?” Charlotte blurted. “You should always do 200 percent in everything you do. Pick it up and give it to my hand.”Russell now understood what she was saying. His jaw hardened, but he picked the cup up and gave it to her. Some part of him wanted to throw the hot coffee in her face, but he controlled himself.“What are you sti

Russell came out of the hangar-like tent quickly. The old server wasn’t even around, so Russell checked his mobile and only realized now that the live stream was still on.There were only 47 viewers the last time he checked, but there were 17,230 viewers now. Russell’s eyes popped out for a second. He had to rub his eyes and check again. “Is this some sort of a malfunction, or are there really so many viewers watching right now?”Russell checked the chat, and there were so many comments talking about what they saw inside the tent. Some talked about the game, and some talked about Charlotte and Regan. The comments were scrolling so fast he couldn’t even read them clearly.Some viewers donated money and told him to go back into the tent once more.“No!” Russell quickly denied. “I don’t have any reason to go back in.”But many donations kept on coming.“Stop it,” Russell said, but they weren’t listening to him. He got frustrated. “I won’t say it again and again. If you don’t behave yours
The Secret Successor CHAPTER 503
“Who’s that shrimp?”Russell’s mouth hardened a little. For some reason, he did not like that some random man was sitting right next to Jessica and was talking with her in a friendly manner. After all, he felt like it was his place that Marlon had occupied.It was Russell who always sat next to Jessica, as they grew up together.Seeing another man sitting next to her now didn’t sit well with Russell. He wanted to approach them, but he just observed them for the time being.“How could you say such harsh words to her, Mr. Marlon?” Jessica coldly told him. “How could you comment on her private parts? Isn’t that crossing the limits?”“I just did what I was told to do,” Marlon replied.“You’re telling me that they TOLD you to comment about women’s private parts?” Jessica frowned at him.“They did not give me specific details, but in the document I was given, they told me I’m free to grill and demoralize the interviewees without any limits, except touching physically,” Marlon explained hims
