Chapter 167
“Okay, it’s just as I thought. These people had some mary transactions with the Weiss and
McFarlene Families during the past few days, probably to set me up.”
Looking at these things, Elspeth grew even more suspicious. “But I couldn’t find out who was the one
stirring up the rumors. Is something wrong with my sixth sense?”
Seeing how engrossed she was, Frank assured, “You must have your reasons foring to this
conclusion.”
Noticing the abrupt change in his attitude, she couldn’t help but feel suspicious. “Why did you change
so suddenly? You’re not the kind of person who will assure me.”
He cleared his throat. “That’s because I know you’re capable, and Mr. Winthrop wouldn’t tter you for
no reason. By the way, what are you nning to do, then? You can’t let them think that you’re such a
person, can you?”
“I’ll take care of this, of course.” Despite what she said, she was not the least worried at all.
“What are you going to do?”
Without a word, she found a picture from the folder on herputer and uploaded it simply in a post. A
few minutester, this picture was pushed to the top and became a trending topic with the highest
views.
Also, there were all sorts of surprisedments in thement section.
‘This dress was designed by Elspeth?!’
‘Elspeth is the designer, Jenny? She’s amazing!’
‘Isn’t Elspeth too much of a genius? How could there be such a talented person?’
‘Talented? She’s simply the best!’
Meanwhile, Jordan and Tiffany, who were silently gloating behind the screen at the abusivements
from theizens about Elspeth, suddenly turned pale the second they saw the news.
With a frozen smile on her face, Jordan uttered, “Who the hell is this Elspeth Lynwood? How could she
be Jenny?”
“At this point, there’s no denying that she’s indeed Jenny. Damn it, I thought I could get her good by
saying that she was wearing an imitation so that she won’t have the guts to cross us again, but who
would have thought…”
If it was true that Elspeth was Jenny, then this matter was as good as over. She was Jenny, so it didn’t
matter even if the clothes she wore were imitations. Even if they were imitations, who would have the
nerve to question her if she imed them to be authentic?
Tiffany was so mad that her gastric started to act up. Never in her wildest dreams did she imagine that
Elspeth had this move up her sleeves.
Equally mad, Jordan suddenly had a daring idea when she saw Tiffany was in just as a foul mood as
her.
“Tiffany, I have an even better idea.”
Seeing the mystery on her face, Tiffany couldn’t help but ask curiously, “What is it?”
Jordan leaned close to her and whispered into her ear, and a devilish smirk appeared on Tiffany’s face.
“Let’s do it.”
At the same time, when Elspeth saw that thements were starting to favor her, she rxed and
whisked out her cell phone to y a few rounds of games.
Seeing that she was also ying ‘Conqueror’s Honor,’ Frank said in surprise, “You’re ying this as
well? How are you doing in the game?”
“Seasoned female yer and the representative of ten consecutive losses. Although I constantly curse
when I y, it did nothing for my skill, and I learned nothing,” she replied and grinned. “Thus, I have
given up, and anyone cane and beat me.”
Not able to stifle himself, Frank burst out inughter. “Well done!”

Elspeth rolled her eyes at him and picked her character. “Did you seriously buy that? I’m a tactical and
scheming yer.”
Heughed even harder. “Really? If that’s true, my brother will definitely like you very much.”
“Oh?” she uttered, intrigued.
“You know my elder brother, Keh, don’t you? He’s the esports madman who has been at the top of
the Conqueror’s Pro League for so many years that he’s begging for someone to beat him.”
Finishing the game beautifully, Elspeth then turned to him. “The top of what?”
“Conqueror’s Pro League. Don’t tell me you’ve never participated in that before.”
Then, she recalled she happened to be abroad when ‘Conqueror’s Honor’ was firstunched, and she
had sufficient time to participate in the Conqueror’s Pro League, whipping away the top spot.
However, she stopped ying the game for a few years after that and only yed for fun asionally
when she was back, without any interest in making it into any rankings.
“I’ll give it a shot, then.”
Very quickly, she ended the game with a win of 12-0 and searched for the name of the number one
gamer in Conqueror’s Pro League.
All of a sudden, she was shocked.
‘CrazyKen.’
What the hell? she thought.
“I can bring you to meet my brother if time permits. He’s training in the club every day andes and
goes without a sound. It might be a little tough to meet him.”
“Sure.”
Without hesitation, Elspeth added Keh as a friend along with a one-liner that read, ‘Are you even fit
to be number one?’
Sure enough, her friend request was promptly epted, and she read his reply. In brief, he intended to
have a one-to-one battle with her, and she readily epted his challenge.
After a discussion, they both decided to spar by using the same character—Charlotte.
With this character, it was a battle of the speed of casting the skills. Elspeth was surprisingly quick and
skillful at casting the skills, and she gained the upper hand against Keh. In addition, the types of
equipment she purchased for her character were different from others, making her character inflict
more damage than his.
As she expected, Keh lost the game 2-1.
‘Do you want to continue?’ she typed leisurely.
‘Yes!’
Helplessly, she started another game, and this time, she chose Daphne as her character while he
picked Shirley.
Due to the restraint between characters, Elspeth should be on the losing end, by right, but she
appeared to be undefeatable right after she purchased the second piece of equipment for her character
in the early game. Although she dealt less damage than her opponent, she positioned herself very
cleverly. Using the minions and bushes, she avoided a lot of hits and even caused a chain explosion
with her character’s passive skills, blowing Keh’s character up directly.
His character, Shirley, sprawled on the ground, and words popped up in the chat box.
‘You’re amazing.’
Leaving her character standing on the same spot, Elspeth replied, ‘My passive skill is chain explosion
while your character’s passive skill is turning into a passive state after releasing a set of skills.’
Ha ha. This joke isn’t funny at all, Keh thought, unable tough at it. ‘Who are you anyway?’
Staring at the name ‘Elsie,’ he thought, Why is a grown man giving himself such a girly username?
‘Your sister,’ she replied simply.
‘Are you trying to be funny?’
While Elspeth was speechless, it slowly came to Keh after a while. Staring at the name ‘Elsie’ on
his cell phone, he thought that this name sounded a little familiar. She’s that cousin I’ve never met after
her return!
Suddenly, he exited the game in a rush, and Elspeth was surprised to see the profile picture turning
dark.
Did I give him a scare because this is too sudden? Or did I shatter his confidence because I beat him,
and he’s now crying silently from the emotions?
No matter how she thought about it, it seemed ridiculous to her, and she turned to Frank. After a long
moment of hesitation, she asked, “Is your brother emotionally weak?”
Before he could answer, the door of the ward swung open suddenly.
