The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon!-Chapter 327: Clashing with Someone’s Persona
Chapter 327: Chapter 327: Clashing with Someone’s Persona
North City, right during the summit.
Scarlett Jennings had just come off the airport’s expressway, and due to traffic control, she arrived at the hotel much later than originally scheduled.
No sooner had she stepped out of the car than Director Clark, along with his crew’s cameraman, personally came over to greet her.
"Scarlett, you finally made it!"
As he spoke, he peered curiously into the nanny van behind her.
The sixth episode of the show had already started nearly half an hour ago.
Because Scarlett Jennings and the sixth guest had not yet appeared, the audience had started to complain in the live chat for quite a while.
[Without Scarlett, ’Inspiration’ just isn’t complete, wuuu, why hasn’t Scarlett come yet??]
[Scarlett has been so busy after starting school, if it weren’t for this variety show, I wouldn’t know when we could see her again.]
[Fun fact, Scarlett’s last Weibo post was half a month ago.]
[It was just a casual shot of a sea of clouds, still the kind without showing her face!]
[She really doesn’t seem to realize how popular she is.]
[Waiting with bated breath ing]
[Heh, that sounds so nice, the showcrew even delayed the broadcast by a day for her, and now she’s the last to arrive, she’s putting on airs even bigger than Sebastian Carew!]
[Don’t cue my brother, back off back off back off!]
[Is Scarlett Jennings getting too carried away??]
Even now, there were still one or two who didn’t like Scarlett popping up occasionally, and just as her fans were about to engage in a verbal spat, they were suddenly distracted by a barrage comment.
[Ahhh! Here she comes! I see Scarlett!!! ...Huh??]
[Huh?]
[Huh?]
The live chat was uniformly filled with many curious "huh"s from people wondering what they were about, only to see another figure slowly stepping out from behind Scarlett’s nanny van.
Huh??
This person looks somewhat familiar??
The figure also looks a bit familiar.
Who is it again??
Before the onlookers could ask, the chat had already erupted with exclamations,
[Ahh! Nathan White! It’s the junior fellow Nathan White!!!]
[No way?! Could Nathan White actually be the sixth guest that Director Clark mentioned??]
The audience’s speculations were soon confirmed.
When William Zeller caught sight of Nathan White, he quickly greeted him with a warm smile,
"Welcome Nathan White! Let me introduce our new sixth guest for this episode. I believe everyone still remembers him."
After the last episode ended, Ianthe Lawson had taken the initiative to tell the crew that she wanted to drop out of shooting.
After all, she was still in her period of bad luck, and aside from shooting for ’Prosperous Age,’ she had declined all her subsequent engagements. Well-informed insiders revealed that Ianthe Lawson was planning to go to various remote areas to do charitable work. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
The showcrew had already released this news last week, and how did the audience react?
Baffled, yet it felt expected.
On the previous episode, Ianthe Lawson, to some extent, had indeed collapsed.
Collapsed from bad luck.
It seemed the audience had grown accustomed to this, and quickly expressed their acceptance, then started a new round of voting on Weibo for the sixth guest.
No one knows who the smart one was that added Nathan White’s name to the list.
After all, as a guide for the show in its fourth episode, Nathan White had also gained a small measure of fame.
As a result, Nathan White received a surprisingly high number of votes in the poll.
Although he didn’t make the top three, it gave Director Clark a new idea.
Yeah, all the celebrities they had invited before had collapsed.
So this time, he thought, why not invite someone from the Mystical Sect? Surely the curse of the sixth guest couldn’t persist, right?!
No sooner said than done.
Director Clark went to the academy leaders again, sweet-talked and cajoled them until Nathan White was finally lent out.
It just so happened that the academy leaders also saw it as a good "courage training" opportunity and, with a female junior from the academy accompanying him, they grandly sent him down the mountain.
Now Nathan White, with his somewhat round figure, got out of the car and immediately tried to hide behind Scarlett Jennings, attempting to use her petite frame to shield himself.
"H-hello everyone."
His voice was still quiet as a mosquito’s whine, yet unexpectedly, the live stream audience wasn’t critical and warmly responded in the comments.
William Zeller knew about his social anxiety, so after a simple welcome, he didn’t keep asking questions. Instead, he turned to Scarlett Jennings and told her about today’s summit meeting in North City, indirectly explaining to the live stream audience why she and Nathan White were late.
Scarlett Jennings, hearing about the summit, wasn’t too surprised and only asked, "Is it on the north side of the city?"
William Zeller was taken aback, "You know?"
He explained that it was an industry summit and that most of the attendees were big shots, with very little known about it online.
Scarlett Jennings vaguely acknowledged and did not elaborate.
The reason for mentioning North City was because there was a wealth aura above it.
And it was a gathering of a considerable amount of wealth aura.
It was a kind of golden splendor different from Samuel Chalmers’ Golden Light.
She had seen it while in the car.
But that was not the focus for today.
Soon, William Zeller led Scarlett Jennings and Nathan White upstairs, where the other four guests had already arrived and were casually live streaming while resting.
As soon as they heard that Scarlett Jennings and Nathan White had come, they immediately welcomed them.
Amber Livingston saw Nathan White and, knowing of his social anxiety, took the initiative to greet him.
Oddly enough, though Nathan White was shy around others, he seemed much less constrained with Amber Livingston and was even willing to get close to talk with her.
Ariel Zimmerman watched this with amazement and couldn’t help but curiously asked Scarlett Jennings why Director Clark had chosen Nathan White as the sixth guest.
Scarlett thought she was worried about Nathan White not doing well in the live stream due to his social anxiety, just about to speak up, when Ariel Zimmerman seriously said,
"Nathan White and Amber Livingston, this feels like an overlap of character setups."
This time, Nathan White introduced himself as the out-of-body fairy’s younger brother, the difference being that he worshipped Immortal White the hedgehog.
With his physique resembling Amber Livingston, it was no wonder Ariel Zimmerman commented on the overlap in their character setups.
The audience hadn’t thought much of it at first, but after hearing Ariel Zimmerman’s comment and taking a closer look, they realized it was indeed the case.
Immediately, they started an animated discussion in the comment section.
Amber Livingston, hearing about the overlap in character setups, was not upset but rather pleased.
He knew Ariel Zimmerman was helping him.
The worst fear of a show participant is lacking topicality.
Having discussions about him and Nathan White’s character setup overlap is better than not being discussed at all.
Topicality brings popularity.
Thinking of this, Amber Livingston immediately started a conversation with Nathan White, even deliberately choosing a topic related to their character setups.
"That cloth bag you gave me last time, I’ve looked at it, those thorns are from a hedgehog, right? I did as you said, placed the thorns under my pillow, and had nightmares for many days."
Amber Livingston was talking about the cloth bag given to him just for him at the end of the fourth episode, which indeed contained Nathan’s thorns, and those thorns carried the essence of Immortal White, meant to help Amber sense the whereabouts of the Immortal Fox.
Hearing him mention many days of nightmares, Nathan White felt somewhat anxious,
"What... what did you dream about?"
That shouldn’t be, right?
His thorns could cure illnesses; how could they cause nightmares?
Then he heard Amber Livingston say, "I keep dreaming about the same old lady who constantly chases me, trying to strangle me."
Amber Livingston talked about it as if he still had lingering fears.
It was clearly a suspicion that he might have been haunted by something.
Nathan White and Scarlett Jennings: ...
Is it possible,
that the old lady,
is from your Immortal Family?
