Chapter 211
Many had sent messages to Anthea, privately reaching out to apologize for the hate they'd spewed before.
Anthea was slightly taken aback by the apologies, but quickly brushed it off and started her live stream.
She had gotten used to not showing her face, so this time was no different.
[Caught Ann's gala live stream. So cool, so gorgeous!]
[Ann, show your face, please!]
[Love Ann for eternity!]
[User: ThorHammerStriker has sent ten sports cars!]
[User: Pupper has sent a sports car!]
[Why are you hiding your face again, Ann?]
"I'm afraid if you guys see my face, you won't pay any attention to my chess skills!"
[Ann, you're so vain! But I love it!]
[You could live off your looks, but our Ann insists on talent!]
Anthea streamed for an hour before signing off.
Rebecca was glued to her screen until Anthea ended her stream, seething with envy.
Why could Anthea continue streaming when all she could do was secretly watch behind a screen? It wasn't fair! This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Right at that moment, Rebecca's phone buzzed. The caller ID flashed - it was her agent, Jack.
"Hey, Jack," Rebecca answered.
"Rebecca, after everything that's happened, don't you think you should go live and explain yourself? Do you realize you've lost twenty million followers?" Jack's tone was stern. "Look, life throws you curve balls, and none of this mess started with you! You're a victim too!"
"I'm sorry, Jack, I'm just not in the right headspace for streaming right now." Without the adoration, the filters, or the chess prowess, what did she have to offer? How could she win back her fans?
"But hiding away isn't solving anything, Rebecca. Silence is admission! Do you have any idea how many followers Griffin has gained?" Jack pressed on.
Now, Anthea had managed to amass more followers than Rebecca.
Rebecca bit her lip and said in determination, "One month, Jack! Give me one month! I'll come back with a response that will satisfy everyone!"
In a month's time, Kendrick would surely be back in good health! Then he would publicly thank her at Cloudcrest.
With Kendrick's gratitude, she'd gain trust points and level up her system.
With that system boost, she'd outshine her current self!
And with the Wright family's support, her family would rise higher.
Jack sighed, "Alright, as long as you have a plan."
Time flew by quickly.
A month had passed, just as Rebecca had anticipated. Kendrick, who was far away in Capital City, had made a remarkable recovery.
So, Kendrick decided to visit Cloudcrest to properly thank Anthea.
Kendrick had lost the number Anthea had given him and only knew that a Miss Yeager lived in Cloudcrest, without any specific address.
During this time, Rebecca had Daly keep an eye on the situation in Capital City.
On the evening of the 25th, Daly brought good news, "Rebecca! A big shot came from Capital City today, looking to repay a life-saving debt to some miracle healer! But..."
He hesitated, "They're looking for a healer with the last name Yeager."
Everything matched except for the last name.
Rebecca's eyes lit up, "Dad, do you forget? My last name used to be Yeager! They're looking for Miss Yeager, and that's me!"
It was understandable for Kendrick to get the last name wrong, given his age and her complicated background!
Besides, without her medicine, Kendrick had no cure.
So, the visit was undoubtedly to thank her for saving his life!
