Chapter 751 What Does It Have to Do with Me?

"What's up? Did I catch you off guard by showing up? Thought I was here to give you a good talking to?" The manager chuckled at Simon's reaction and couldn't resist cracking a joke. He had a good understanding of the players on the team. He understood that each of them had their quirks. After all, they weren't saints, and no one was perfect. Fortunately, the players on their team didn't have any major personal issues, so there wouldn't be significant damage to their reputation. Conversely, as he browsed through social media and observed streamers or players from other esports clubs dealing with their tumultuous personal lives, the mere thought of it gave him a headache. These young individuals appeared to be more unrestrained than the middle-aged ones, and they didn't seem to fear the consequences either. However, as long as they weren't breaking the law, he saw no reason to comment on their affairs. His only concern was that his players stayed out of trouble. Having alre

Chapter 752 Nightmare   

Back when they were in cahoots, BlueMushroom had thrown all sorts of threats at Simon to ensure he carried out his assigned task. But now, all Simon received was a nonchalant "What does it have to do with me?" How could it have nothing to do with him? Simon's fingers trembled as he swiped across his phone screen. The response time between messages wasn't slow; it was almost instantaneous. This meant BlueMushroom had seen all of Simon's earlier messages and was merely playing dead. With trembling fingers, Simon fired off a rapid stream of profanities, threats, and even curses. In contrast, BlueMushroom's response appeared much more composed. BlueMushroom: "Saying these things to me here won't help. You need evidence for your accusations. Do you have any evidence? As fellow league players, I won't mind the insults you threw at me today. "But if you keep insulting me, I'll screenshot the insults and send them to my club's legal department. At that point, you'll be facing t

Chapter 753 Absurdity

Rebecca was recalling the nightmare she had just experienced. Even though there were no visible images from the dream, vivid scenes unfolded in her mind at that moment. The crashing waves at the pier echoed loudly, and the lighthouse beam pierced through the darkness as it swung around. What was most terrifying was the boundless deep sea and the fear of sinking as her feet could not reach the bottom. Rebecca furrowed her brows involuntarily, but her curiosity quickly waned. She was reluctant to dwell on the past. Taking another sip of her latte, Rebecca pretended as if she hadn't been lost in thought earlier. She turned to Daniel with a smile and remarked, "Being able to control one's curiosity is a sign of greater intelligence. No wonder you’ve achieved so much, Mr. Winston." Her playful smile dispelled any lingering concern in Daniel's heart. He chuckled lightly and expressed a hint of helplessness. "You flatter me, Becca." Daniel suddenly realized that the formal a

Chapter 754 Sure

Rebecca wasn't particularly surprised about the reversal of public opinion. After all, the truth remained true, and falsehood remained false. Even if someone created a seemingly reasonable fake story to exploit information gaps, it couldn't alter the underlying reality. What truly caught Rebecca off guard was the rapid emergence of netizens fervently shipping Alex and Carissa. She was taken aback and couldn't believe how quickly everyone seemed to pick up on the scent of romance. As she marveled at this, she clicked into the fan club. It was only at this moment that Rebecca realized there were not only the new fans shipping them, but many existing fans had been secretly shipping them for a while. Yet, these fans adhered to unwritten rules like avoiding the use of real names in the fan club. Even the in-game IDs of the players were kept undisclosed. This precaution was taken to prevent any potential embarrassment if the subjects of the ship stumbled upon the fan club. It

Chapter 755 No Surprises

Rebecca's eyes widened as she gazed at the message. Swiftly bringing her phone closer, she carefully read the message from Alex. Instead of a period or ellipsis, it was a clear and straightforward "Sure." Rebecca blinked and copied the message. After confirming that Alex had indeed sent the message and ensuring he hadn't retracted it, she enthusiastically replied with a question. Becca: "Alex, am I understanding this correctly? Are you really confessing? You're not joking, right? You're not just fooling around with me?" AlmightyAlex: "....." A long string of ellipses conveyed Alex's frustration. He followed it up with a voice message, and he sounded somewhat annoyed. "You little troublemaker, do I look like someone who would joke about my lifelong decision? I'm confessing to Carissa, not to you. What do you mean by fooling around with you? It has nothing to do with you. Stop messing around." Despite the scolding, Rebecca continued to laugh cheekily. Becca: "Of cou

Chapter 756 I Don’t Know

While Rebecca and Caleb exchanged voice messages, she kept the speaker at a low volume. The surrounding tables couldn't hear, and there was no one nearby. However, as he was sitting next to her, Daniel did overhear quite a bit. Hearing Rebecca's quiet and puzzled complaint, he chuckled and said, "It might not necessarily be that he's not right in his mind. People often have a gambler's mentality. He might be betting on a situation where everyone loses, but it's advantageous for him." As previously analyzed, if CalX won the championship, following the club's policy of not deducting a share of the prize money, Simon's earnings would match the illicit gains proposed by the opponent if he secured a starting lineup position. However, the condition was that CalX must emerge victorious. Success in the competitive gaming world demanded equal effort; there was no room for a one-sided victory without exertion. Simon understood this principle well. Perhaps, after watching the semi-f

Chapter 757 I Have No Idea

"You don't know? You're telling me you've got no idea where that money in your account came from?" Before the police or Alex could react, the rest of the team couldn't contain themselves and bombarded Simon with questions. They stared in disbelief at Simon, their teammate with whom they had shared countless moments. It was tough for them to accept that Simon was involved in fixing matches for money. Shock and astonishment played out on everyone's face except Terry. No one could believe it. When they signed up with CalX, they went through a thorough background check. Throughout the league, it was common knowledge that CalX had the most stringent entry standards. It wasn't just about skills and game awareness; personal integrity had to be assured. Unlike other teams where one could get in as long as they had the skills and passed the training, CalX was strict in their selection process. Yet, here they were, faced with a teammate who had become a disgrace to the entire lea

Chapter 758 Believe Me   

At this point, any further argument would be futile. The money was in his account, and his performance in the grand finals was evident to everyone. Insisting on a poor condition? That was just an attempt at deceiving others, not oneself. Having lived together and trained almost every day, even when nervousness led to mistakes, they were well aware of the kind of performance Simon was capable of delivering. Yet, there he was, sticking to his story. Even if it was a false accusation and if the money had been intentionally deposited by someone else, what about his subpar performance in the match? Attempting to brush off everyone by attributing it to his poor condition—did he genuinely believe everyone was as naive as a three-year-old child? As the crowd turned away and left, Simon suddenly felt a sense of abandonment. "None of you believes me?" Simon uttered a final question. His voice was tinged with a tremor. No one responded. Alex, who was observing from the sid

Chapter 759 Eat Before Heading Home

Upon hearing Carissa's words, Alex let out a light chuckle, and his demeanor became lazy. "Ms. Stevens, I've already reached out to you online with my inquiry. If I were to face rejection, it would be a topic of embarrassment all over the internet. So, why should I be concerned about a bit of embarrassment in front of my family?" Carissa glanced at his smile. A spontaneous smile appeared on her lips too. "And what if I were to agree?" Rising from his chair, Alex adopted a respectful tone. "If you agree, Ms. Stevens, it would be my honor. And as for them ..." His gaze shifted toward the curious Rebecca, and a smile broke across his face. "They would be just as happy as I am." Indeed, Rebecca's smile was almost stretching to her ears. Who would have thought that the rumored couple would become a reality? In the past, she couldn't comprehend those who shipped couples, especially considering that many so-called 'sweet moments' seemed forced. It was often just regular friends

Chapter 760 Ex-Husband

Rebecca's words struck a chord with Carissa.Even if she had decided to go back, she should at least wait until they finished eating.Just as she was hesitating whether to give Rebecca a response, Alex, who was sitting beside Carissa, casually said, "Why are you two all being so considerate to each other? It seems like I have a competitor now."Carissa was still lost in her thoughts when she heard Alex's words. She couldn’t help but start blushing.Rebecca, sitting across from her, said, "What can you do about it? We take care of each other. You should step up your game."Alex squinted and looked back at Rebecca, "Oh, look who's talking! Should I watch out for you?"Caleb, standing beside Rebecca, chuckled and added, "I agree with Becca."Alright, the whole family had become united.Caleb didn’t say anything.Coincidentally, the dishes started to be served, and they were ready to eat. Alex was the first to reach for the dishes. He picked up some food and put it on Carissa’s pl
