Chapter 6


    Aaron stepped out of the car wearing a suit, followed by Jodie in an exquisite white dress, who took his


    hand as they both got out. Their fans screamed in excitement as they watched the live stream. One of


    themmented, ‘What a wonderful pair of siblings! They are incredibly good-looking.’ Another fan


    remarked, ‘It’s rare to see Aero in a suit! He must have dressed up to match his sister’s outfit this time.


    He’s such a caring brother.’ Another fan chimed in, ‘Jodie looks like a little fairy.’ Simone nced at the


    siblings. Jodie was already good-looking, and her sweet and gentle appearance today perfectly


    matched the image of a little fairy she was trying to portray.


    They were dressed so elegantly that it seemed like they were attending a party rather than participating


    in a show at a mountain vige. This is going to be interesting. As the siblings approached, Le took


    the initiative to greet them with a smile, even linking her arm affectionately with Jodie’s. Simone noticed


    that Le’s gaze, although discreetly, shifted towards Aaron from time to time. So, she’s warm and


    friendly towards Jodie because she has her eye on Sc*mbag No. 5. Keira and Eric also greeted the


    siblings, although not as warmly as Le did. Simone simply smiled in greeting. Jodie insists on


    contrast to me. I guess she’ll probably use Aaron and Leon to provoke me into losing control of my


    emotions and doing something irrational on air because of them. This will not only make these two


    sc*mbags dislike me but also make the viewers detest me, ultimately humiliating me. It was easy for


    one’s public image to be destroyed on a live show, so she had no ns to adopt a particr public


    persona. She was even more unwilling topromise herself and wanted to stay true to who she was.


    Therefore, she had no intention of pretending to be friendly with Aaron and Jodie.


    On the other hand, he felt ufortable seeing her indifference towards him. Ever since she left the


    Gray Family with such confidence, he and the rest of the family had been struggling to adjust. However,


    he wouldn’t help her unless she took the initiative to reconcile with him. Aaron’s fans were surprised by


    Simone’s attitude as they watched the live stream. One of themmented, ‘I thought Simone would


    enthusiastically greet Aero and try to get on his good side.’ Another fan spected, ‘Maybe she knows


    Aero won’t pay her any attention. Perhaps she’s backing off to avoid looking bad on air.’ ‘She’s quite


    self-aware, huh?’ ‘Who knows? Maybe she’s just ying hard to get. After all, the live stream has just


    started. Let’s wait and see what happens next.’ Several minutester, two more cars arrived. Leon was


    the first to step out of his car with a cold and serious demeanor. As soon as he emerged from the


    vehicle, everyone, including Eric, showed looks of surprise. Simone noticed that Jodie’s eyes showed


    no surprise, only delight. That meant she already knew he was one of the surprise guests, confirming


    Simone’s suspicions that these two had been in touch beforehand. Everyone went up to greet Leon,


    while Simone stood where she was without approaching him or speaking to him. On the other hand, as


    he got out of the car, his gaze fell upon the brightly dressed Simone. Deep down, he wondered how


    she would greet him. To his dismay, however, she simply stood there, unmoving, with a cold attitude.


    Le disliked Simone for being prettier than her. Seeing Simone’s aloof attitude, she deliberately


    asked, “Simone, aren’t you going to say hello to Mr. Foster?” She added meaningfully, “I heard you two


    used to be childhood ymates.” Simone replied in a businesslike tone, “We’ve already cut ties with


    each other, so we don’t keep in touch anymore.” She did not want any involvement or association with


    Leon in the show. If she was going to sever ties with him, she should do sopletely. Therefore, by


    answering Le’s question, she made it clear that their rtionship was over, giving everyone a heads-


    up. Everyone present was stunned by her reply. They couldn’t believe how bold and candid she was,


    especially considering that the show was being live-streamed! Le asked in surprise,


    “Huh? You did? Why?” Just as Simone was about to respond, Leon shot a look at Le and said, “I


    don’t think this is any of your concern, right?” He didn’t want Simone to say anything more about their


    severed rtionship, not because he was afraid of embarrassment, but because he resisted the idea


    deep down. Le didn’t expect him to step in and speak in Simone’s defense. With a sheepish smile,


    she replied, “I was just curious.” A viewermented, ‘I’m curious too. Why did Simone and Mr. Foster


    cut ties with each other?’ ‘Maybe Simone tried to seduce him and got warned not to make any


    advances on him anymore?’ ‘But judging by Simone’s frank demeanor, it doesn’t seem like Mr. Foster

    was the one who cut ties with her.’ ‘It feels like there’s some juicy gossip here, but unfortunately, Mr.


    Foster intervened in time.’ Meanwhile, Leon’s fans were particrly displeased at that moment. One of


    them criticized, ‘Why does Simone have such a big ego? She even ended her friendship with my


    hubby. Who wants to be friends with her?’ Another chimed in, ‘That’s right! Stop trying to glorify


    yourself, Simone. Mr. Foster has long wanted to get rid of you, you bloodsucking parasite.’ Another fan


    show.’ ‘Since she publicly dered that she’s cut ties with my hubby, she better not actively pursue him


    afterward.’


    ‘Can’t wait to see her eat her own words.’ Just then, a young man wearing sunsses stepped out of


    the car behind. He was big and tall, exuding rebelliousness and assertiveness. Despite the sunsses


    covering most of his face, one could tell from his fair skin, prominent nose, and sharp features that he


    was undeniably handsome. Having watched part of the opening of this variety show in her previous life,


    Simone already knew who this surprise guest was. Zac Turner was born into one of the most prominent


    families in Cebros society, surpassing even wealthy families like the Grays. Additionally, he was the


    reigning esports champion from the previous year and a highly popr gaming streamer, earning him


    the nickname Zeus among the esports fanmunity, in reference to the mythical king of Greek gods.


    After winning the world championship, he retired from the esports scene due to a hand injury and


    ventured into the entertainment industry as a side pursuit. Apart from having millions of fans within the


    esportsmunity and his attractive appearance, he possessed exceptional singing and dancing


    skills, as well as abundant resources in the entertainment industry. Consequently, he achieved A-list


    status within just over a year in show business. Since entering the entertainment industry, he had


    amassed a massive following of devoted fans, earning him the affectionate nickname Zachy. His


    participation in this variety show was likely an attempt by his talent agent to expand his fan base.


    Simone had a particrly strong impression of Zac because he was the only man who didn’t take a


    liking to Jodie and had even ridiculed her before.


    The others were unaware that Zac was the second surprise guest, and their expressions were filled


    with even greater astonishment than when they saw Leon. They had all heard of his reputation in the


    industry, where he was known for his assertive and carefree style, not hesitating to express his


    displeasure. Furthermore, he had a sharp and biting tongue. However, due to his influential


    background, people dared not offend him even if they had issues with him. Nevertheless, it was said


    that as long as one didn’t provoke him, he usually wouldn’t abuse his power or seek trouble. Moreover,


    this guy had numerous devoted fans who were not only rational but also equally sharp-tongued and


    fiercely protective of him. Everyone internally sighed in distress. How did they end up with such a guest


    this time? They didn’t dare to offend him, even if he might prove to be difficult to get along with during


    the uing live stream. Aaron’s face couldn’t help but darken when he saw Zac step out of the car.


    He and Zac had never gotten along, finding each other intolerable. What was even more infuriating was


    that Jodie had approached him at a previous party, but this individual had not only ignored her but also


    treated her as if she were an easy woman who went around hooking up with men. He had even made


    sarcastic remarks towards her, disying apleteck of gentlemanly behavior. Jodie’s eyes also


    flickered with surprise when she saw Zac. The show’s director and production team had kept this a


    secret, so she hadn’t known that he was the other surprise guest. Recalling his obvious disdain for her


    and his incredibly powerful background, she couldn’t help but tighten her grip on her dress. Well, it’s


    good that he’s participating in this show. I’ll make him realize my worth and make him fall for me.
