Chapter 95 Faced with the reporter's pointed question about whether Noelle was the streamer SweetNelly, Lucas appeared dazed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOver the past few days, he had been drowning himself in alcohol, hoping to numb his thoughts. He wouldn't have managed to pull himself together if it weren't for this event. Lucas had heard rumors that the streamer SweetNelly would also attend the event, and he wanted to confirm with his own eyes whether the streamer was really Noelle. Before he could respond, Xenia stepped in. "Dear reporters, we've been wondering about this too. Since the streamer has never shown her face, we can't be certain either." The reporter pressed further. "But it's said that her voice is an exact match to Ms. Liddell's. Is that true?" Xenia's expression faltered slightly. "That's correct. But it's not uncommon for people to look and sound alike. Similarities like that don't prove anything." "Ms. Quigley, does this mean that you don't believe that SweetNelly is actually Ms. Liddell?" "That's what I think. If she were truly that talented, why would she choose to stream at Firestorm? If she wanted to sign a contract, it would make more sense for her to join Starlight, just like me." After her remark, she glanced at Lucas. "Right, Lucas? Don't you think so?" Lucas' expression darkened. He couldn't find the words to answer the question. If Noelle were really SweetNelly, would she have signed with his platform? In the past, he would have been sure that she would. But the situation was now different.
Noelle observed the scene before turning toward the check-in area.
Rachel felt indignant. "Why does Xenia act like she has the right to dictate what you can and can't do? You have every right to choose which platform to sign a contract with." "I won't let them manipulatewith their moral superiority," Noelle replied.
As arriving at the check-in area, Xenia's voice suddenly rang out behind her. "Noelle, what are you doing here?" Xenia appeared in her extravagant evening gown adorned with luxurious jewelry. She felt smug that she had dressed like a princess before Noelle.

Just look at how underdressed you are." Noelle's expression remained indifferent. "Why would I need to tell you?" Xenia gritted her teeth. "Because this event is by invitation only. Did you and your class president chere as part-treceptionists?" To Xenia, that seemed like the only explanation for Noelle's presence.
Lucas' brows furrowed at the mention of "receptionists" as he looked at Noelle. "You left the family with such determination, only to take on a menial job like this? If anyone learns about this, you'll be the shof the Liddell family!" Rachel couldn't hold back anymore and retorted, "Noelle played a pivotal role in her team's comeback during the repechage with her 12-hit combo! Do you think she'd stoop to being a receptionist here?" Her statement caught the attention of the people nearby.
"So she's Noelle?" "I heard that she could use the 12-hit combo. That's King's signature move! She's still so young."
The reporters quickly picked up on the buzz and swarmed around m Young Liddell, how did you learn Noelle. "Ms, the 12-hit combo? What's your relationship with King?" Noelle replied calmly, "I'm a fan of King. I pulled off the 12-hit combo purely by luck."
Watching Noelle gain the reporters' attention, Xenia felt jealous. Shem wondered what was so special about allucky 12-hit combo. Was it that rare?
"Ms. Liddell, given your skills, what are your thoughts on Team Luminark's chances in the finals? Do O you think you can lead them to victory?" Noelle was caught off guard by the reporter's question.
