True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules (Winnie and Suzan) novel Chapter 124

Chapter 124 

Although Winnie saw through Gentry’s facade, she didn’t feel the need to call them out. 

For one thing, everyone has their own way of getting by, and she wasn’t about to play the “justice warrior” just to expose someone’s tricks. 

After all, poking your nose into such matters often brings more trouble than it’s worth. 

Plus, they were on a reality TV show, and if reality TV can have scripts, why can’t influencers curate their own personas? 

If he could maintain his act, then more power to him. 

Secondly, the Gentry she had researched online was mostly known for helping fans with love troubles. And if someone was in dire need of medical help, they wouldn’t just peddle some quack remedy but would encourage them to visit a hospital. 

All in all, Gentry was a scam artist with principles. 

In the world of online streaming, it’s hard to tell who’s genuine and who’s a fraud. 

The last reason was that she actually appreciated the excuse he had given as “the spirit.” 

Wasn’t it just that the Hendersons had brought this misfortune on themselves through their 

own misdeeds> 

When the Hendersons saw the spirit leave, their expressions changed dramatically. 

Now, as Gentry returned to his normal, simple self, they couldn’t help but approach again, their attitude no longer dismissive, and their tone now tinged with a plea, “Gentry, could you help us out and talk to the spirit again… My family really needs her assistance.” 

Even though Quincy lowered his pride, Gentry remained steadfast and shook his head honestly. “If the spirit doesn’t want to do something, I can’t force her. Another plea isn’t going to change. her mind.” 

As he spoke, he glanced at the Hendersons and earnestly advised them to reflect on their own issues instead of begging the Fox Spirit for help. 

He saw right through them, the Hendersons were up to no good. 

Coupled with Winnie’s earlier demeanor and the implications of her words, it was clear that the Hendersons were in their current predicament due to some misdeeds. 

Not to mention, Gentry didn’t really have the power to summon spirits, especially in front of a live audience; he had to protect his reputation first and foremost. 

He had done his best, and if help was not forthcoming, it wasn’t his fault. 

Gentry was at peace with that. 

Chapter 124 

The production team was in a bind. With three people unable to assist and the remaining two, Candace and Kane, there mainly for their popularity, it was clear they didn’t have the means to solve the Hendersons‘ problem either. 

Quincy, realizing this, thankfully had a backup plan. Although he had briefly hoped for the Fox. Spirit’s help, he quickly shifted his attention back to Winnie. 

“Winnie… could you possibly…” 

“I can’t.” Winnie cut him off without hesitation. 

Some viewers in the live stream thought Winnie was being cold, but others felt it was a satisfying slap in the face. 

“Why should this lady be morally pressured? Winnie’s obviously not getting along with that family, so why should she help?” 

The viewers were curious about the nature of the grievance between Winnie and the Hendersons and were eager for some juicy details. 

Following another rejection, Suzan, who had been holding back, couldn’t contain herself any longer. 

Unlike Quincy, Suzan had fewer reservations; seeing Winnie’s clear desire to distance herself from the Hendersons only made her more determined to not let her get her way. 

With that thought, Suzan put on a heartbroken expression and looked at Winnie with disappointment, “Winnie, are you really going to let our family die? I didn’t want to bring this up on camera, but you’re being too much! Quincy treated you like a sister since you were little, the Hendersons raised you for eighteen years, and our entire family has loved you like our own. Even if you forget all that, can’t you help in memory of the care and upbringing you received from us? Are you really going to leave us to our fate?!” 

Suzan’s outburst stunned everyone, both in front of the cameras and in the live stream audience. 

No one expected that Winnie and the Hendersons had such a relationship! 

Winnie was a foster daughter of the Hendersons, and they had raised her for eighteen years! 

Viewers who initially thought Winnie was playing a satisfying role in a scripted drama couldn’t help but feel she was now being too heartless. 

“It’s one thing not to be able to help, but quite another to refuse to help, especially your own foster family who raised you for eighteen years. Winnie was indeed going too far!” 

“This plot twist shocked me. Although Winnie is impressive, this time, I’m on the Hendersons” side!” 

“It’s about family. Even without blood ties, they raised you, and to such a high standard at that! Now I understand why she was previously called ungrateful. Isn’t this the definition of

ingratitude?” 

“Wait a minute, she said from the start that she couldn’t help. Why are you all trying to guilt–trip. her?” 

“The Hendersons‘ problem seems like no small matter. They dismissed Winnie as a fraud. before, but now everyone’s acting like she’s omnipotent?” 

“Even if she truly can’t help, that’s no excuse for her attitude! That’s her foster mother! Don’t you understand that the debt of upbringing is greater than the debt of birth?!” 

“I was starting to like Winnie, but now I’m totally turned off!”
