Alistair got really jealous when he saw a trending discussion about Audrey and Leila's couple moments. His wife's first couple fan page wasn't even created with him. He was so jealous.
No wonder Sunny was so upset. It would be strange if he wasn't mad.
Alistair took a deep breath, continually telling himself to stay calm and not embarrass himself in front of his son.
He quickly regained his usual calmness, ruffling his son's hair confidently, and said, "Don't worry. Daddy will definitely reclaim my rightful title!"
Sunny watched him calmly for a moment, then grabbed back the tablet PC, throwing in a parting comment, "Useless."
Alistair was speechless. His son had become a little troublemaker.
In reality, it wasn't just Alistair who felt intensely sour; Yelimia did too.
Seeing Leila and Audrey looking so closely, she couldn't care about her pride anymore and walked right over to them.
"Audie..." Yelimia called out to Audrey.
She took a deep breath awkwardly, as if she had made a huge decision, and finally built up the courage to say, "Can I live with you?"
After she spoke, Yelimia clearly saw Audrey's momentary shock.
Being someone who cared about appearances, she felt a bit uncomfortable and quickly made up an excuse, saying, "I'm not that familiar with the others, and I'm not used to living with them. There are only two of you now... just add me in."
Audrey was genuinely surprised that Yelimia would reach out to her. After all, when they lived together before, she had forcefully broken Yelimia's door, and ever since, Yelimia had been quite cold towards her. She hadn't expected Yelimia to change so much this time. However, Audrey could clearly sense that Yelimia wasn't like Paula and Yulia, who seemed to have ulterior motives.
This realization reduced some of her hostility, but her face still showed little reaction.noveldrama
On the other hand, Leila quickly stood up for Audrey, sarcastically saying, "Didn't you say before that you didn't think much of our Audie?
"You think our Audie's just a minor influencer and you're the sophisticated artist, too good to hang out with us. Now you're the one who looks foolish."
Leila, being self-assured, was never afraid to upset anyone. She always said exactly what she shouldn't, striking right at others' hearts.
Yelimia was really upset, but she was too embarrassed to admit it was because she was a bit jealous of Leila and Audrey's close bond.
She snorted, Straightened her neck,
glared at Leila, and said, "I'm not the type of person who doesn't appreciate kindness. Audie helped me before, and I've long changed my opinion of her. Leila, stop trying to cause trouble."
"Me causing trouble? Interesting!" Leila put her hands on her hips and said defiantly. "You're the one who's always putting on airs and giving Audie the cold shoulder."
Yelimia felt wronged and retorted, "I told you I wasn't! It's just that my face naturally looks grumpy, and is that a crime now?"
Leila puffed up her chest and said fiercely, "I don't care. Even if you move in, I'm still Audie's best friend!" Yelimia was speechless.
Seeing Leila and Yelimia competing for Audrey's attention in public, the fans shipping them immediately split into two camps.
[Why do I feel like Yelimia and Audie would make a great couple too? An aloof tsundere with a secretly warm heart versus a seemingly cold but actually sweet girl.]
[No way! Audie and Leila are the perfect pair, and you can't break them up!]
[I'm different. I just want all three of them together...]
[Stop arguing. The four of us being together and living well is what matters most!]
In no time, the comment section was filled with fans discussing their favorite ships.
Alistair couldn't sit still any longer and took the initiative to call the show's producer, Kieran.
Kieran was watching the livestream backstage and jumped when he saw Alistair calling. He quickly moved to a quiet corner to answer the phone politely. "Mr. Hayes, what can I do for you?"
Alistair's expression was slightly tense as he calmly said, "About your suggestion for me to be a mentor for the next series, I've decided to go for it."
Kieran was speechless and he thought, 'What? Is Mr. Hayes really going to come to the show in person?'
