Chapter 89

The girl hosting the livestream was shocked by the flood of comments. She quickly said, “I swear this isn’t a publicity stunt. This place is really ap Look, the boss has called the security guards to stop us from leaving.

“Where on earth are we supposed to get forty thousand dollars? Have you ever heard of a meal costing that much? There are also a lot of miners here, Look, the security guards are preventing us from leaving.”

The flustered girl accidentally caught Sophia in the frame while filming. Viewers, knowing Howard, instantly recognized her too. Their love–hate relationship was already well–known online.

[Wait a second, did I just see Sophia, or am I seeing things?]

[Same here, I saw her too.]

[What’s Sophia doing over there? She looks totally chill.]

[What’s Sophia doing with Howard’s fans? What a bizarre combo.]

Seeing that the viewers were all talking about Sophia, the girl panicked, afraid they’d leave. She quickly said, “We were tricked into coming here. We didn’t know this restaurant was a scam. And Sophia, she…”

The girl didn’t know what to say. Just moments ago, she’d been scheming a little. Unfortunately for them, just because they were foolish didn’t mean the netizens were either.

[Don’t tell me you’re seriously claiming Sophia tricked you all into coming here? That’s hilarious.]

[If that’s really the case, then you guys are seriously idiots. Hands down the funniest joke I’ve heard all year.]

[I heard Howard’s crazy fans are out for revenge against Sophia. You guys aren’t actually here to get back at her, are you?]

The girl hadn’t expected this turn of events and burst into tears. Sophia, who had been watching the drama unfold, suddenly noticed someone filming her. She stood up with a smile and walked over. “Are you filming me?”

Caught off guard by how sharp Sophia was, the girl felt a pang of guilt and stammered nervously, “N–no. I didn’t…”

“Go ahead,” Sophia said casually. The girl froze, surprised by how easygoing she was.

Joey pointed at the group and told the livestream viewers, “These are all Howard’s delulu fangirls.

“They came here today for their so–called ‘fan meetup‘–ate, drank, had their fun. Now they’re trying to skip out on the bill, thinking they can get away with it just because they’re underage.”

The girl frantically tried to end the livestream, but it was already too late. “Sophia, stop making up lies. Who said we weren’t going to pay? It’s the owner who’s scamming us; he saw we’re young and tried to extort forty thousand dollars.”

Sophia ignored her, waved the owner over, and pointed at the girl with the phone. The owner quickly understood, explained the situation to the livestream viewers, and showed the price list, insisting he hadn’t inflated the prices.

What the girl didn’t expect was to be mocked instead of helped. Soon, it hit trending: [Howard fans dine and dash then threaten owner]. And countless people clicked in just to enjoy the joke.

[That’s hilarious.]

[She is foolish. Blame the boss after being tricked? The boss shows clear prices. If it is too expensive, no one has to come. With so n and drinking, forty thousand is not expensive.]

to the wealthy and those with trust funds anyway.!

[You went there by yourselves and now you’re blaming the owner? I bet you’re crying now. Kaima.)

Every netizen who looked into this topic couldn’t help laughing. Howard’s delusional fangirls once again made it abundantly clear just four lacking sense they really are.

The girl never expected that exposing the dishonest boss in her livestream would make her the target of online ridicule. She couldn’t take it and cred loudly.

After enjoying the show, Sophia spent a night at the country inn before heading back. Upon returning to Chandler residence, a maid told her that a new neighbor had moved next door, and was already paying them a visit.

Sophia raised an eyebrow. A neighbor was dropping by; that was interesting.

“Sophia.” A young boy’s cheerful voice sounded. Sophia halted in her tracks, suddenly feeling a twinge of unease.

Beaming, Dorian dashed over to her and called out, “Sophia, you’re finally back. I’ve been waiting for you forever.”

Sophia didn’t respond. Dorian pressed on, “I sent you so many messages. How come you never replied?”

Sophia lied through her teeth, “I was swamped and didn’t notice.”

The day they returned from the auction, Dorian added her on WhatsApp. However, she found him extremely chatty, bombarding her with endless questions and non–stop chatter. So she simply muted the conversation.

Dorian blinked his big, bright eyes at her for a few seconds, then broke into a grin. “Sophia, you’re always so busy. Am I bothering you?”

Sophia walked straight into the house, settled down on the sofa, and took a sip of the iced drink the maid had brought. “So, what brings you here?” she asked casually.

Dorian sat down beside her, complaining playfully, “You ignored all my messages. That’s why I came over.”

Sophia glanced around and noticed Dorian was alone. “Where’s your bodyguard?” she asked.

He was born with a congenital heart condition. In his previous life, He had an episode and was saved by Yvette. After a few encounters, Yvette became close with the Stone family and eventually turned Evander into her fallback guy.

Whenever Dorian was around, he tripped Yvette up at every turn. To him she was a fickle vixen; seducing Evander was bad enough, but chasing other men as well crossed the line.

And then he was gone. It was raining the day he had a heart attack. Yvette forgot her umbrella and called Evander. Evander went. And in doing so, lost his little brother forever.

Pointing to a villa not far from the Chandler residence, Dorian grinned, “My brother and I just moved in. Now we’re neighbors.”

Dorian glanced at Sophia and teased, “Sophia, why are you giving me that weird look? Wait, do you know something you’re not telling me? Don’t tell me my parents are having an affair and there’s a secret love child or something crazy like that.”

Sophia was speechless. ‘This kid’s imagination is off the charts,‘ she thought. She honestly couldn’t believe Dorian had actually moved next door just to keep up with the gossip. His dedication to drama was almost admirable.

“No, don’t overthink it,” Sophia said, feeling sympathetic toward the Stones. “Your parents are really in love.”
