Noelle noticed the ongoing speculation about her identity in the forum and figured it was likely one of her classmates stirring things up.
Considering she was attending the influencer event that evening, where her identity would inevitably be revealed, she felt no need to keep it a secret any longer.
A commenter wrote, "I'm a classmate of the Liddell family's eldest daughter and can confirm that the streamer's voice matches hers exactly."
Soon, anti-fans started commenting.
"If she's really the Liddell family's daughter, why would she stream on Firestorm instead of Starlight? Stop making things up!"
"She could use King's 12-hit combo. With her talent, there's no way the Liddell family would let her go rogue like this!"
"Nelly is clearly trying to use Ms. Liddell's name for fame. She should consider whether that's even realistic. The 12-hit combo is not something just anyone can do."
As the anti-fans stirred the pot, most people leaned toward believing that SweetNelly couldn't possibly be Noelle.
Noelle's head started to ache as she read the arguments in the post's comments.
Just then, she received a text from Rachel. "Queen, those anti-fans are so nasty. They're probably Xenia's die-hard supporters. Why not come out and shut them up yourself?"
Noelle smiled slightly and replied, "The truth will be clear tonight after the event. There's no need to waste time arguing with them." Even if she tried to explain, some people would still refuse to believe her.
Noelle glanced at the clock and realized it was nearly noon. She headed to the apartment unit next door and saw Alfred emerging with a head of messy hair, yawning. "Morning, Nelly."
"It's already noon. Is the bar that much fun?" Noelle asked curiously.
Alfred's eyes lit up. "It's fun! If you're curious, I can take you next time."
"Don't corrupt her." Cedric walked out of the study. His gaze filled with warning as it landed on Alfred.
Alfred replied lazily, "Nelly's about to start college, and she can freely date now. So, she's practically an adult already. Going to a bar isn't a big deal."
