The comment section of the live stream exploded with insults and heated arguments.
Xenia watched the viewer count skyrocket in her stream, which made her heart soar with excitement. She knew drama like this would attract more followers.
On the other hand, Lucas felt humiliated. He hadn't expected SweetNelly to reveal their private conversation so publicly. He was certain that SweetNelly wasn't Noelle.
If it were her, she wouldn't have risked tarnishing the Liddell family's reputation like that.
Since SweetNelly refused to cooperate, Lucas decided he wouldn't hold back.
He logged into the game and opened a Player Kill ranked match. His rank was 90.
Lucas quickly messaged a few others in the 90th ranks and asked them not to join the game. That way, his match would default to SweetNelly. If she wanted to advance, she would have to face him.
Initially, Lucas had planned to sign her to his team and capitalize on the match as a marketing opportunity. But the plan was no longer needed.
James hesitantly said, "Mr. Liddell, she's just a rookie. Are you sure you want to take on her yourself?"
"Yes, I'm going to teach her some respect." Lucas was confident. As a top-tier professional player, there was no way he would lose to a newbie.
SweetNelly indeed had potential. But she still wouldn't stand a chance against a professional player.
The Player Kill match started quickly.
When Noelle saw who her opponent was, her expression turned icy.
"Well, isn't this a coincidence," she said coolly.
Noelle knew Lucas' rank, but these matches were randomized, and Lucas was not the only player who ranked within the 90s. He had clearly rigged the match.
The viewers in her stream noticed, too.
