Emma felt like she was just going through the motions during her shopping trip.
When she got home, Peyton immediately noticed something was off and rushed to help her inside.
"Emma, what's going on? You look terrible."
Emma shook her head, feeling like her brain was about to burst. She tossed her shopping bags aside and jumped online to search, "What happens to streamers who secretly have babies?"
The search results were pretty mortifying. It seemed others had faced this before, and once it came out, they disappeared from the scene, leaving their reputations in tatters.
Emma's headache worsened. She wanted to quit streaming right then and there. The money she was making only just covered her expenses anyway.
Sure, it'd be a letdown, but it seemed better than facing cyberbullying down the line.
Yet, she’d signed a five-year contract with Stellar Stage Entertainment, and breaking it would mean coughing up a hefty penalty.
She hadn’t really thought it through before. Now, as it weighed on her, she let out a small sigh.
Her streaming time was coming up fast, so she pushed her thoughts aside and started her live stream.
As soon as she went live, she noticed Mr. 0000, a major supporter, was online. Since her debut, he hadn’t shown up, despite fans leaving messages asking where he'd gone, without any replies.
Seeing him, Emma realized she hadn’t thanked him yet. Her debut owed a lot to him, after all.
While chatting with her fans, she clicked on his profile.
"Hey, I never got to say this, but I've signed with a company. Thanks a bunch for your support. How about dinner sometime?"
Dustin, reading her message, raised an eyebrow.
Earlier, she'd claimed she was carrying Mr. 0000's child, which was a total lie. Now, she was reaching out for a chat and even suggesting meeting up. What was on her mind?
A streamer meeting her top donor could sure spin a tale.
But Emma didn’t seem to realize this.
She seemed off today. Was she just in a bad mood?
Emma used her real name as her username, and she felt a bit flustered when he called her by it.
Dustin's words had gotten to her, which was why she was off her game today. But not wanting to let her fans down, she tried her best to engage and chat, unaware he had seen right through her.
"Yeah, a bit, Mr. 0000. When are you coming to Beaconsfield? I'd love to treat you to dinner."
