Love Me Or Leave Me

CHAPTER 20

Rebecca and Charlie had no idea Theodore was watching the livestream. Even if they did, they wouldn’t give a

damn.

At this moment in the car, Charlie was worried that Rebecca might feel sick on the ride. He took out some snacks, ripped open each one, and offered them to his sister. “Here, Becky, try these. They’re seriously delicious.”

Rebecca looked at the snacks and then at Charlie. A warmth spread through her chest. “Thanks…”

She couldn’t be too affectionate, not yet, and they both knew. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Charlie smirked, “Don’t bother. It’s just some snacks. I’ll take care of you!” He was determined not to be any less

protective than Adrian or Bryce. He could protect his sister, too!

He seemed very fixated on the idea of protecting her, and Rebecca couldn’t help but smile. Having a real family

member was wonderful.

Thinking of this, Rebecca picked up a bag of chips, and handed it to Charlie.

“You should eat some too, Chuck,” Rebecca said.

They couldn’t act too close, but calling him Chuck should be fine, right?

Many of Charlie’s fans online often called him that..

Charlie froze, his eyes widening in surprise as he stared at his sister.

But shock quickly gave way to pure joy. Charlie wanted to hug his sister right then and there. “Oh man! She called me Chuck, she called me Chuck in front of hundreds of thousands of live stream viewers! She’s so adorable!‘

Charlie was ecstatic inside, but he remembered they were on a livestream. He took a deep breath, looked at

Rebecca, and managed to nod calmly. “Hmm.”

Rebecca had no idea about the rollercoaster her “Chuck” had sent Charlie on – shock, nerves, excitement, and

finally, a kind of pride. Meanwhile, that one moment sent the viewership for Room Five through the roof.

[Whoa, did Becky just call him Chuck?? I’m dying! I wish I was Becky right now!]

[I’m literally crying! I’m so jealous. Becky is living the dream!]

[Did you guys see Chuck’s face when she said it?! He was shocked, nervous, happy, everything all at once! So cute!]

The live chat was filled with excited screams, with fans unable to contain their excitement.

However, some fans remained rational and noticed something unusual.

[Does anyone else think Charlie’s acting a little weird today?]

[Me too! I think Chuck’s been replaced by a body doublel He is so weird today.

[Not to be a hater, but Charlie’s behavior today was really strange. He never had the ‘warm guy‘ persona before. Since when did he become so considerate of girls?]

[I’ve been a Chuck fan for ten years, and honestly, he’s acting totally out of character today. The Chuck I know would never be this attentive to a girl!]

[Right? The old Chuck was so sarcastic. He roasted every pretentious female celebrity in the industry.]

[I know, right? I didn’t want to say anything earlier for fear of getting attacked, but I agree. Chuck’s never been this nice to an actress before. But now he’s being so considerate to this girl. It’s so weird!]

[Chuck, are you being forced to do this? Is the agency making you? If you are, blink twice!]

Some of the more emotional fans couldn’t handle the thought of their idol fawning over someone else.

[Is Chuck trying to rebrand? What’s wrong with being the sharp–tongued commentator we love? We became fans because you weren’t afraid to call out those pretentious actresses. Don’t change, or we won’t know what to do!]

[Ugh, I can’t stand this Becky. Why doesn’t Chuck just bring his own family on the show instead of some random fan? Is she trying to use him for fame or something?]

[Right? Like, back off! He doesn’t need anyone else to shine.]

Amidst the sea of Charlie’s fans, a few of Janet’s supporters inevitably showed up to stir the pot.

[It’s hilarious. Even Charlie’s own fans don’t buy his act anymore. So fake!]

[Just waiting for someone to break character, lol.]

[Charlie’s gross. I hope he leaves showbiz soon and stops showing up on the same shows as my girl. He’s such a turn–off!]

After having some snacks with his sister, Charlie glanced at the comments. It was quite something.

He chuckled and looked at the live stream camera, explaining, “Break character? Are you kidding? Don’t the people I roast know what they’re like?”

His eyes softened as he turned to Rebecca beside him. “Do I need to fake it when I’m being good to Becky?”

Those few words were enough to silence most of the doubters in the live stream. His loyal fans rallied to his defense

[Exactly! How has Chuck broken character? He always makes fun of those drama queens, but Becky isn’t like that.)

[Been a fan for eight years, and Chuck has never been anything but respectful to decent girls!]

[I’ve got a video of Chuck being a total gentleman, letting the ladies go first!]

[Becky’s adorable, and she’s a fan too. If Chuck doesn’t spoil her, who should he spoil? You haters?]

[LOL, exactly! Chuck is treating Becky well because she’s his fan. If one of my fans came all this way to hang with me on a show, I’d do the same thing. That’s not breaking character!]

[Team Chuck and Becky all the way! We’re rooting for you both on the show. Focus on your careers, make that money, and don’t let the haters get under your skin. Keep shining!]

Rebecca was also watching the comments and got a bit worried seeing everyone roasting Charlie.

Charlie suddenly noticed someone leaning in. He turned and saw his sister. The defiant look he had on his face for

the live stream instantly melted into a warm smile typical of a caring big brother.

“Hey, don’t let those comments get to you, they’re just noise. It’s always like this. Let’s just keep our heads down, focus on the show, and have some fun with it.” Charlie gave her a comforting smile.

As soon as Charlie said this, the comment section erupted. But Charlie, as always, couldn’t care less. He lived on his own terms. Other people’s opinions didn’t matter to him.

Meanwhile, Janet and her mother, Karen, were watching the comments in a different crew car. Janet had always marketed herself as having a gentle and innocent persona in front of fans. She diligently responded to fans‘ questions, maintaining her online persona.

Regarding the comments questioning her child born out of wedlock and asking if the child was Theodore’s and if she would marry Theodore to become a wealthy lady, she pretended not to see them. She ignored those comments and selectively responded to the ones she wanted to answer.
