Yearning for Her Return Chapter 738 Refused to Go Home
Carissa inevitably felt sad about it. Yet, pleasant surprises soon came one after another.Alex recommended her to other clubs willing to take in female players. Because of that, she didn't need to join the youth training camp and could advance straight to the clubs' tryouts.Still, Carissa ended up going to the youth training camp. She wasn't refusing to use her connections with Alex out of pride. Instead, she wanted to experience life in the training camp after conversing about it with Alex. Besides, she couldn't join competitions regardless of whether a club would sign her. That was because the competition season only started after the youth training camp ended. So, her wish to experience the camo wouldn't affect anything.She could also familiarize herself with a competitive environment. She'd train with the youth training camp's players.Carissa had also asked for Alex's opinion before she signed with the Flashfocus Esports Club. She wasn't trying to trouble Alex. Carissa si
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 739 That Would Be Terrifying
Carissa continued planning for her life after having a big cry.Apart from her original practice schedule and finding a partner to train one-on-one, she added an hour of live streams to earn more money. A career in the gaming industry was indeed unstable. Carissa had also experienced days when no one would watch her live streams in the early days of doing it. The worst part was she had to pay for her electricity usage.No matter what, Carissa made it through to today. So, she seized the chance to earn as much money as possible. Otherwise, things would be less stable once she retired, and society would lose its buzz for her. Without earning enough money, she could only obey her parents' wish to marry someone and have children.That would be terrifying for her. Although Carissa wasn't against marrying, she still feared it because she wasn't prepared and hadn't met the right person.She could only earn as much money as possible while she was young. That way, she could give herse
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 740 A Role Model
"It's Gina Jackman. I used to live in the apartment unit below your parents, but I guess you don't know me since we seldom saw each other, huh?" The woman wiped her hands on her apron. Her hands were oily because of the dishes she cooked at her food stand. Her hands would still appear unclean even if she rinsed them. So, she wiped them against her apron while flustered.Carissa had finally remembered who this woman was. "I remember you. It's just that we haven't seen each other in a while, so I couldn't recall at first glance. Please don't take it to heart, Ms. Gina."One couldn't blame Carissa for not remembering. In truth, most neighbors seldom saw each other despite living in the same apartment. Carissa's memories of Gina were from her days as a junior in high school. She would go downstairs to the activity area, where Gina's child would play in the sandbox.Carissa never interfered with the child and would only watch from afar. She couldn't help reflecting on her childhood n

Carissa felt like confetti had burst in her chest when she heard Gina's words. She never thought she'd become someone else's role model. After all, not winning first place was pointless in her parent's eyes. In high school, Carissa only had average grades in her class, so her parents didn't treat her any better. Even if people called her an elite student after learning she attended the top middle school in the area, she didn't feel like she was one.That was because there were exceptional students around her, many of whom had better grades than her. Carissa just refused to fall too far behind. So, she could only spend more time working hard to get a middle rank in her class.Yet, Gina stood before her and said a younger girl now saw her as a role model.Carissa found the situation bizarre as she felt wasn't worthy of such a role. At the same time, she was giddy with joy that someone saw her as an inspiring figure.Gina didn't hold back any information. Since it was late, ther
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 742 Match-Fixing
"Should I go home?" Carissa wondered as she balled her fists, which were hidden in her long sleeves. She was hesitant. On the one hand, she felt conflicted after learning from Gina that her parents watched her competitions. It made her want to go home at once and confront her parents. She wanted their approval.On the other hand, Carissa felt terrified. She feared her parents would react coldly toward her like always. She was worried that Gina had only said those things out of politeness and to flatter her since they were neighbors.Yet, it had already been two, almost three years since she went home.Carissa also seldom answered their calls.Deep down, she wanted to go and see them.Carissa pursed her lips, inhaled deeply, and snapped out of her thoughts. Then, she looked at Rebecca to say, "Thanks, Rebecca, but it's too late. My parents usually sleep around this time. It'll be inconvenient if I go home now. I'll visit tomorrow instead. Can I hitch a ride back to the hotel with
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 743 Ridiculous
Both clubs only learned about the situation online the following afternoon.Their celebratory dinner yesterday lasted till late at night. Plus, they had split up to do their own things after leaving the restaurant. They later returned to their hotel rooms, hosted individual live streams, and had a midnight snack. They ended up sleeping at their usual bedtime when everything ended. Naturally, they awoke in the afternoon the next day.Alex instantly saw the countless missed calls and messages on his phone once he awoke.He thought he was dreaming, so he rubbed his eyes and went back to sleep. In the next second, he sprang up from the bed with a frosty expression as he dealt with the various text messages.As for the post that just appeared online, Alex merely found it ridiculous. Anyone who had seen yesterday's competition would intuitively know the players on the other team were in worse condition.If anyone was match-fixing, it should be a famous player from his club, not Flashf
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 744 What Logic Is This?
Rebecca lost interest after looking at it for a while.Under the comments, there were several pages and accounts piping up about the competition. They clarified that CalX Esports Club was very strong overall and was always in first place during the regular season events. The contestant in the video just wasn't in good condition that day, and he usually did very well in the regular season. They explained that they had already done their best in the competition with Flashfocus Esports Club, and there was no need for them to accept money and rig the competition. It was just a pity that no one was reading those accounts. In addition, the issue had died down, and the top comments were all sarcastic. The comments trying to clarify would just be seen as trying to whitewash and would be buried quickly. They would be labeled as those who were accepting money or be humiliated as saying they were just the club's bitches. Rebecca scanned a few comments and suddenly felt that there was n
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 745 What Is the Matter?
Rebecca was stunned when she saw the man in the doorway. She had woken up late and had just been scrolling on her phone after washing up. She still hadn't gotten dressed or put on her makeup and was in her pajamas with her hair loose. When she saw the huge figure of the man in front of her, she had no choice but to hide behind the door and ask in a low voice, "Mr. Winston? Is … anything the matter?"Daniel lowered his head, and his vision was filled with the bare face of a young lady who looked rather guarded. She was guarded against him. When he realized this, Daniel pressed his thin lips together, and his fingers curled slightly. He did not retreat. He maintained his usual expression. After a moment, he asked gently, "There isn't anything urgent. I just wanted to come over and ask if you've had lunch yet, Becca."He was smiling gently and looked harmless.After a pause, he added, "I saw that it was almost lunchtime, and you know that I don't really know anyone here.

Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1065 Final
Penny didn't have much free time over the past three years.As she had envisioned, during the first year, she honed her acting skills amidst criticism while also working as a translator.Later on, she felt that acting didn't hold much appeal anymore. Moreover, realizing that there weren't any roles left for her, she gradually gave up and moved toward working behind the scenes.She had some work during this period.It seemed that a daring reality show, not caring about potential risks, decided to capitalize on her controversial popularity and invited her to participate in one of their programs.The reason Penny agreed to participate was because the show's first season had a good reputation, and the payment offered was reasonable.Continuously doing translations could be quite tiring. After discussing with Cecilia and weighing the pros and cons, she eventually signed up for this TV show.Unfortunately, she had underestimated the darker side of human nature.The show's production
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1064 End It
"Really?" Zane blurted out, staring incredulously at Sam, who nodded calmly. His unruly and carefree demeanor was restrained, and his composed attitude showed that he wasn't joking.Zane fell silent again, furrowing his brow as he intently observed Sam.It was as if he thought everything through in an instant, giving up without hesitation. He didn't even remind Zane of the request from years ago to take care of Penny. Instead, he said this would be the last time he would help out.Logically speaking, this should be a satisfactory outcome for Zane. After all, from any perspective, the Lowe family's scion would only be a burden to Sam.Looking again at Sam's attitude, it seemed he didn't want Penny to know he was the one quietly spending money to handle things behind the scenes.Since there was no plan to meet her, he didn't need to worry about anything after that. If that was the case, it would be better to just end it early.That way, if Sam saw Penny falling in love, getting mar
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1063 No Need to Bother
All those old scoundrels from the Lowe family undoubtedly ranked the highest. Then there was Jessica, the entertainment industry's national goddess, who also played a significant role.Besides them, there were a few minor celebrities who didn't really make the cut.However, as Sam's partner and someone who watched him grow up, Zane privately hoped Sam could find a better girl.So, he advised, "There are plenty of socialites in Riverwood, and Amdale has no shortage of beautiful young ladies, either, and Rookfort isn't much different."You and the Lowe family's daughter haven't even officially met…""Who said I haven't met her?" Sam interrupted him without a second thought.He had even seen her twice. How could Zane say they hadn't even met yet?The first time, she gave him all the money she had. The second time, he spoke up to help her get that role.After these interactions, they could be considered acquaintances.Zane choked up and couldn't find the words to refute.He was s
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1062 Enough
Because Penny declined his offer, Zane didn't insist. After a bit of small talk, he ended the call.He politely mentioned that if she needed any help, she could call this number again. If he could assist in any way, he certainly would.However, Zanw knew very well that, given Penny's temperament, she would rather give up what she had than actively seek help from a stranger.Yes, to Penny, Zane was just a stranger. He was a person she had met once but didn't really know.This time, Penny didn't respond as coldly as she did when she was 18. Instead, she exchanged a couple of polite pleasantries, mentioned that she would reach out if needed, and then hung up the phone.After that, she let out a long sigh of relief and lay on the lounge chair on the balcony, gazing at the view outside the window.There were fluffy white clouds in the azure sky and the greenery visible in the neighborhood. Sparrows were chirping persistently as they darted through the forest, and the cicadas loudly bu

Although the other person said only one word, Penny could still tell he didn't have any ill intentions.Because of that faint sense of familiarity, Penny didn't hang up the phone immediately. "Hello? May I ask what this is about?"The unfamiliar and distant tone probably made the man on the other end of the phone pause for a moment. It was only after a brief silence that he responded."Young lady, don't you remember me? It's Zane Moran."His voice carried a laugh, with a hint of teasing.Only then did Penny remember who he was, but she wasn't happy at all.Zane meant no harm when that incident happened back then. But despite that, over the years that had passed, he became one of the people and things Penny would rather not recall.Whether it was the exam she missed, the incident where Spencer took her to the hotel against her will, or Zane, who gave her 30 dollars for a taxi ride.She just wanted to hide all of them deep in her memories.The recent events had particularly made

"I'm fine. You all don't have to look so worried. You're making it seem as if something bad is going to happen to me."Penny looked at the two people at the door who were showing a range of expressions, feeling speechless.Cecilia was provoked by her words, and her eyes turned red."We're worried about you. You have no idea what you look like right now. You're almost like one of those disheartened protagonists in novels who hated the world."Penny clicked her tongue twice and said, "Aren't you exaggerating?"She didn't believe it. She was just worried about money. It wasn't like she had become disillusioned with life.Besides, she didn't dislike this world at all. On the contrary, she really liked it.Whenever Penny came across posts online suggesting that all humans should just die, she always felt like rolling her eyes. If they wanted to die, they shouldn't drag others with them.When searching for her own role in movies, TV dramas, and novels, Penny particularly preferred re
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1059 Helpless
Penny's way of clarifying things was to simply tell the truth.Sometimes, trying to cover things up would just lead to needing 100 more lies to continue the cover-up. That would often end up making things worse and more ridiculous.It was better to tell the truth about the situation.To answer the question of why she lashed out at the Lowe family, she briefly explained her experiences over the years.Why didn't she attend the final paper of the college entrance examinations? She personally reopened that old wound.As for that man in the hotel, Penny didn't have much of an impression of him anymore. She only remembered not taking his business card and accepting 30 dollars from him.Why did she show up at that man's hotel room? She wrote it down truthfully—it was her father who personally took her and left her at the hotel, wanting to trade her like a commodity.Every single word was carefully considered and written by Penny.She didn't share much of these things with Cecilia. Th
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1058 Excuses
Once the official statements were released, Penny's career being ruined became a certainty.The only surprising thing was probably that after the film crew issued their statement, the largest investor also requested to withdraw.The film crew was completely shocked, but there was nothing they could do. The scion was willing to lose money just to withdraw his investment, so what could they do?The amount of money in the compensation was nothing compared to the amount that the scion planned to invest. The production team would incur a significant loss.With one less investor, the project's status was essentially downgraded. They had much less room to manipulate their gains now, too.One would understand why the scion was doing this if they used their brain a little.However, the protests from the audience couldn't be ignored, and compared to the investors, it was clearly more important to keep the show going.After all, they could always attract more sponsors, even if the amount o
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1057 Despised
In addition to the widespread backlash caused by the phone recording, Penny's academic credentials were also scrutinized and exposed.Before the college entrance exam, she had always been the top student in her school and had never ranked anything else.However, in the college entrance exam, she barely passed the minimum mark for key institutions, far below her usual performance.Some people speculated that she had been cheating during regular exams and that her actual abilities were much worse.However, the exam results could be checked online, and the fact that Penny scored zero on the last exam was surprising.It was even more shocking that she was admitted to a top-tier university despite missing an exam. It was truly exceptional.But few people paid attention to this information.After all, the achievements attained through hard work couldn't be faked. Even if the results weren't as expected, it was undeniable that she was stronger than many others.Regarding this topic, t
