Hiding Behind Her Superficiality

Chapter 215

Elspeth followed Callum to a place that Michael could never have thought about.

In FX Club, Kenneth looked at her cheery face and shrank backward. “So, you decided to come to my place?”

“Kenneth, we’re buddies, aren’t we? You won’t leave me alone, right?” Elspeth blinked her eyes pitifully.

“The thing is, Grandpa will kill me if he finds out.”

Although Kenneth was unwilling to visit home usually, he still feared Michael.

“Don’t worry, I won’t sell you out.”

At the moment, this club was the safest place for them. As long as they escaped Michael’s search, they would be able to solve this matter when the storm subsided after some time.

When Birdy and the others who had played with her previously saw Elspeth, they were elated. “Elspeth, don’t leave now that you’re here and stay in our team. Trust me, you’ll go viral,” Birdy suggested with a grin.

Carrot nodded and took out his phone. “Miss Idol, I’ve been livestreaming recently. After you left, I gained a few thousand more followers. I think I’m close to a million followers!”

Elspeth chortled. “Livestreaming? What for?”

“Well, not only can you interact with your fans through livestreaming, but you can also… earn money!”

Susy gave him a playful slap on the arm. “Don’t listen to him. He doesn’t even earn that much.”

The group was just chatting when Elspeth received a call from Harper all of a sudden.

“Bad news, Elspeth! The company’s in trouble!”

Harper sounded panicked as if he was facing a huge crisis. “The Joneson Corporation is cracking down on our company, and it’s really causing a considerable impact. We’re now facing a shortage of funds.”

“Can’t we take out a loan?”

Harper hesitated before saying, “I did try to take out a loan, but they said that Old Mr. Joneson had issued an order not to lend any money to Azure Corporation.”

Not to lend any money to Azure Corporation… Elspeth’s brows furrowed. She realized that things had become trickier than she expected.

“Take care of things first and appease the staff. As for the money, I’ll come up with a solution.”

After hanging up, she looked at Callum and sighed. He planned for her to go under the radar for some time, but his idea was rejected.

“Why should I hide? I will show myself to everyone as I like.”

Although Callum was taken aback, he could understand. After all, this was Elspeth’s way of dealing with things.

“Then, what are you planning to do?” C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Elspeth didn’t answer immediately but turned her gaze to Carrot instead, her lips curling into a smile.

“Start a livestream.”

Upon hearing the word livestream, Carrot instantly sprung up from his seat. “Elspeth, you’re gonna livestream?”

“Yeah. My company is in debt now, and we can’t take out a loan, so I can only try livestreaming.”

“That’s great! I’ll teach you!”

However, Elspeth shook her head. “No need for that. I have an account.”

Just as Carrot was looking at her in confusion, Elspeth logged into an account with a single word in its name—Mist. However, after he saw the number of followers, Carrot’s eyes nearly bulged out of his skull.

“Eight million?!”

He had a slight recollection of this streamer. She never showed her face, but her voice was exceptionally pleasing to the ear. Her streaming activities included chatting with her audience, playing games, and posting vlogs. Either way, she was engaged in various fields. However, just by relying on the variety of genres she offered, she managed to gain eight million followers in one fell swoop, becoming the most popular internet celebrity at the time, and just her account alone fetched a price of 100 million.

“You’re Mist?” Carrot’s eyes gleamed as he said, “You can make up for your company’s losses just by selling your account, much less livestreaming. You can definitely do this, Miss Idol!”

However, Kenneth became conflicted. “If you start a livestream, won’t you easily expose that you’re at my place?”

Elspeth curled her lips into a smile. “Don’t worry, I don’t show my face in my livestreams, so they won’t be able to find me. Besides, not many people know it’s me.”

A corner of Callum’s lips twitched. “Yes, even I had no idea when I spend day and night with you.”

When she turned around and saw Callum’s conflicted gaze, Elspeth laughed dryly. “I just didn’t have time to tell you. You know how many identities I have.”

After everything he’d been through, Callum had long since gotten used to her multiple identities.

“Okay, since it’s a livestream, let’s make it nine o’clock tonight. Hm… what should we do for the livestream?”

Before Elspeth could come up with an idea, Carrot immediately shot to his feet. “Video games!”

He had a point. Streaming games was a good idea while they were in the club.

Elspeth smiled. “Sure. In that case, I have a plan.”

As soon as she said that, she turned her attention to Kenneth and smiled eerily at him.

“Why are you looking at me?”

“The theme of our livestream tonight is to challenge all the members of FX Club.”

Kenneth’s eyes widened. “Are you seriously going to fight all the members of FX Club?”

Elspeth was picking her ears. “What’s wrong? Is that bad? Right, Kenneth, you’ll be the last one, or I’m afraid that they won’t fight me.”

Kenneth was rendered speechless. However, now that things had come to this, he had no other choice but to helplessly agree to her plan.

He posted it in the club’s public group chat, and as soon as he was done, the club members were abuzz with excitement. The live challenge sounded thrilling just from the thought of it. In particular,

those who were curious about Elspeth’s real skills were rubbing their fists together, wanting to compete with her.

Once the clock struck nine, the livestream started. As Elspeth looked at the rapidly rising number of viewers, she slowly curled her lips into a smile. Within minutes, there were already a hundred thousand viewers.

Once a sizable crowd had gathered, Elspeth’s sweet voice sounded from the livestream.

“Hello, everyone! So nice to meet all of you here! Today, I’m starting this livestream just to host a small little challenge. Enjoy the show and give some gifts if you can.”

The moment she finished speaking, the viewers immediately began buying her gifts.

‘Mist, will you give me your number if I give you thirty Universes?’

Elspeth laughed sultrily. “Sir, if you give me a hundred, I’ll tell you whether I’ll give it to you.”

‘Hahahaha!’

The chat was filled with laughter at her words.

“Okay, let’s cut to the chase and start the challenge.”

Elspeth looked at the first person who challenged her and quietly judged them for being an unranked player.

‘Miss Elspeth, I’m a huge fan of yours. You’re so good at playing Daphne. Can I play a round against you?’

Elspeth laughed. “Of course, you can.”

After decisively selecting Daphne and joining the game, Elspeth was surprised to see that the person had also picked the same character. All of a sudden, the game turned interesting as the two same characters fought against each other.

Soon, the number of concurrent viewers reached three hundred thousand.
