Fred tensed because he hadn't known either. Not until now. Not until Zoella had crushed them all.The captain of Trinity Quasar stepped forward, looking Zoella in the eye. "But I'll admit it—I lost fair and square. You're incredible."The Twelve-Hit Combo wasn't something just anyone could master. S
Zoella stood there, expressionless, watching them.Did they really think she was still the same Zoella as before?They never even asked for her opinion—just brushed everything aside with a single sentence, as if it were some kind of grand favor to her.She didn't need it anymore.Fred, looking guilt
Fred frowned. He knew Jasmine's actions were over the top, but… as long as Zoella agreed to join the team, this wouldn't have to escalate. That was the simple solution.Zoella's voice was calm and indifferent. "I think you're all mistaken about something."Bobby hesitated. "What do you mean?""I've
The sharp crack of the slap sent a sting through Zoella's palm, leaving it faintly numb. She stared at Zach in shock. He stood tall and strong.She hadn't expected him to take her hand and slap Fred.The room fell into dead silence.Jasmine, watching from the side, felt a fleeting satisfaction. Fred
Zach lowered his gaze and met Zoella's eyes—calm, unwavering. Somehow, that steadiness grounded Zoella, making her feel a little less adrift.Fred, on the other hand, was furious. "What the hell is this supposed to mean? We're her guardians. Who gave you the right to do this?"The lawyer stepped in
Right now, Zoella was sitting in the car with Zach.As she watched the traffic outside, a knot formed in her stomach. "Bobby will definitely send people to look for me. He'll probably go to school too to cause trouble for you."This was, after all, the Finchman family's territory.It was the reason
Anyone who played this game admired King. How could they not?Zach watched the video replay of Zoella pulling off a twelve-hit combo. His expression softened. After all these years, she was the only one who had managed to do it.They logged in to the game together. Their teamwork was seamless as the
Zoella lay against Zach's chest, dazed and still.Zach lowered his gaze. All he could see was her smooth forehead, her damp hair sticking to her skin, the moisture seeping between them, even making her shirt slightly translucent.His Adam's apple bobbed as he gulped. Then he let go of her. "Here. Th
When Zoella saw Fred and Bobby appear, her expression didn't change.Calmly, she looked at Henry. "Let's set a time later, then."Henry nodded, then turned toward Fred. "What? I didn't say anything wrong. If she were my sister—with this kind of talent—I'd be treating her like gold, putting her on a
Zoella didn't answer the question. She simply turned and walked toward the main hall.Her steps were steady and purposeful as she lifted the hem of her dress to keep it from dragging. Not once did she look back at Fred or Bobby. It was as if they were strangers.Fred remained rooted in place, quickl
Carrie didn't hesitate to expose Zoella's identity.The words landed like a bomb.For a moment, Fred's mind buzzed with static. He felt as if the ground beneath him tilted. His body wavered slightly. He stared at Zoella, eyes wide with disbelief and rage.She really was SweetLemon.So from the very
Zoella hadn't expected the question from the reporters.Did they really think she was part of Ace Cap?Her gaze remained calm and distant as she answered, "I wouldn't know. I'm not with Ace Cap anymore."The moment those words left her mouth, the reporters froze.The Finchman heiress said she wasn't
When the reporter asked whether Zoella was SweetLemon, Fred froze for a moment.These past few days, he'd been drinking himself into oblivion, trying to numb everything with alcohol.If it weren't for this event, he probably wouldn't have pulled himself together at all.He'd heard that SweetLemon wo
Zach tried—really tried—to keep his cool. But the next second, his leg shot out in a sharp kick.Scott had already predicted it and leapt out of reach just in time. He continued talking. "Didn't you say Zoella's into someone? Maybe it's a classmate. Once they're in university, they might start dati
Zoella saw that people online were speculating about her identity. Most likely, it was someone from her class.In any case, she was attending the influencer event tonight—her identity would be exposed sooner or later. Whether it happened now or later didn't really matter.[I’m the Finchman heiress’s
Zoella felt her way down from the sofa. Zach's hands reached out beside her.She glanced over.Above her, Zach said gently through the darkness. "You'd better hold on tight."Zoella gave a small cough. "No need, seriously."The moment her foot hit the ground, it slammed into the corner of the coffee
Zoella was carried out of the area littered with broken glass and placed gently onto the couch.Zach looked down at her. "Next time I tell you not to move, don't move. If your brain's not working, stay put."She had just gotten scolded.Zoella lowered her head. "I didn't think I'd bump into the vase
