Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel Chapter 1297

After Peyton and Emma got back to their room, Emma remembered Brielle's advice about growing her fan base. Without wasting any time, she jumped back on her live stream.

Her chat room was buzzing. Everyone was eager to know how she handled the donation issue. Among them were plenty of Leona's fans, just waiting to see Emma mess up.

Leona was still live, chatting about the hot news with her followers. The top trending story was about a kid who donated a huge sum to a streamer who didn't give it back. Rumors were flying that the streamer was none other than Stellar Stage Entertainment's Emma.

As the drama grew, Emma got hit with a wave of insults the moment she went live.

Seeing Leona's fans in her chat, Emma scoffed. "Leona's fans again? Can't she just stick to her own stream? Am I really that much of a threat to her, even with my low ranking? She must be seriously insecure."

"Did she spew more gossip? That's all she's good at."

"And remember, a snake's always a snake."

After dealing with Leona's fans, Emma turned to her own supporters, who had genuine questions.

"Emma, I saw a lot of hate on social media. Tell me it wasn't you. If a kid really donated, especially if their family's struggling, you should give the money back."

"Yeah, we know times are tough, but you can't keep that money."

Emma smiled. "I just got back from the company. They confirmed the donation came from an overseas account. It's not from a local kid, so I can relax."

"Why did the company call me in? Remember when Leona sent her fans to bully me online? The higher-ups found out and said they'd clear things up. Turns out, the colleague who helped my mom works for Stellar Stage Entertainment, and we got in touch with her."

"Thanks for all the concern, everyone. I've been trying to reach the owner of the 0000 account, but no luck so far."

Emma's relaxed demeanor was a far cry from her earlier anxiety. But many in the chat still thought she was faking it.

Leona, who was watching Emma's stream, couldn't help but chime in. "What a joke. If she's so innocent, why hasn't the company reached out to me, the top-ranked streamer? They must've sent the police to her, not company reps."
