Chapter 344: Worried Old Father (1)
"Who said I’m leaving? What is wrong with you people on this crew? Aren’t you afraid I’ll expose you? How dare you treat a guest this way!" Eileen Scott demanded.
"We’re not," Felix Hughes replied bluntly.
Eileen Scott was so angry she was speechless, her face turning pale with rage.
Then Felix Hughes added, "Miss Scott, what exactly do you plan on exposing us for?"
Eileen Scott stammered, unable to get a word out.
"Since you don’t want to leave, that must mean you want to participate in this show properly. But appearing on camera like this will definitely create a PR problem for the crew. If you leave, it’s a PR problem. If you stay, it’s also a PR problem. Since it’s the same either way, we’d rather you just left," Felix Hughes continued.
Hearing this, Eileen Scott raised a hand to touch her face.
"Eileen, your makeup is a little smudged. Why don’t you go for a touch-up?" a teammate gently suggested.
"Yeah, yeah, the makeup artist is right over there. A touch-up will be quick," another teammate added anxiously.
’They were still hoping to gain some popularity from this show!’
’From the looks of it, the show was doing pretty well. Just yesterday, a few topics were trending on social media, and the full guest list was being promoted everywhere.’
’They’d never normally get this kind of exposure. They had to fight for every chance to get more screen time.’
’Now they were kicking themselves for not taking the initiative to team up with Melody Monroe!’
Everyone had a phone and could see what was happening on the other teams’ livestreams.
At the moment, Melody Monroe’s group was by far the most popular. In just a short amount of time, they already had over thirty thousand people watching their stream.
In contrast, their own livestream hadn’t even officially started yet because of Eileen Scott.
Felix Hughes stood there the whole time, only nodding to the person beside him after he saw Eileen Scott had finished her makeup. A staff member immediately came forward to help their group start the livestream.
...
The car drove on, bumping along a winding mountain road. The surrounding scenery, however, was breathtakingly beautiful.
On camera, Shaun Owen was enthusiastically interacting with the fans.
It was clear he was a multi-talented guy and the comedic relief of the group.
He not only had the fans roaring with laughter, but his teammates in the car were also doubled over in hysterics.
In contrast to the scheming and infighting in the other groups, the atmosphere in this one was lighthearted and fun.
Some fans who had been channel-surfing found themselves coming back to this livestream.
"Shaun, the fans are asking if there’s anything you can’t do," said Young, the staff member assisting with the livestream, relaying the question on their behalf.
"Does not knowing how to give birth count?"
Melody Monroe let out a "PFFT" of laughter. "If you could give birth, you’d be the strongest man on Earth!"
The fans recognized Melody Monroe’s voice, and the comments section instantly blew up.
"Goddess! It’s my goddess! That’s Melody’s voice!"
"Shaun, get out of the way! Point the camera at my goddess!"
"I want to see Melody."
The camera operator adjusted the shot to focus on Melody Monroe, who immediately waved at the lens.
Instantly, the screen lit up with activity!

The gifts kept pouring in, completely drowning out the regular comments.
Each user only got one free Support Stick, but now people were sending them by the tens, hundreds, and even thousands!
"Thank you, everyone. Thank you," Melody Monroe said, quickly thanking them all.
