Love me or leave me (Rebecca and Theodore)

Chapter 36

The viewers in the livestream were nearly doubled over with laughter.

[Lesley may not be the prettiest, but she's absolutely adorable!]

[Oh no, I think I might be falling for Lesley. How can someone be this endearingly silly?]

In livestream Room Three, countless netizens watched with laughter, commenting that this variety show was just

too entertaining.

Meanwhile, Rebecca and Charlie waited a bit longer after hiding the chickens to ensure no one was coming. Only

then did they feel relieved.

Luckily, they managed to keep some of their chickens.

Rebecca quietly calculated the number of chickens they had. She and Charlie now had twenty-two, while Lesley and Angie had only eighteen. The other guests had even fewer.

It seemed they were poised to win. However, everyone in the circle knew that Janet and Lesley were from the same company. Given their status and relationship, Lesley's participation in this show was likely to support Janet.

If Lesley intentionally lost her chickens to Janet, then Janet would end up with twenty-eight chickens, surpassing

them.

With just over an hour left before the game ended, going outside to catch more chickens seemed unlikely.

Rebecca's mind raced, and after a moment, she glanced at the camera and then turned to look at Charlie. Finally, she whispered a few words into his ear.

Tens of thousands of fans were buzzing in the livestream, curious about what she whispered to Charlie.

A moment later, Charlie stayed in the cave to continue guarding the chickens.

Rebecca quietly slipped out of the cave and walked away alone.

[???]

[Where is Becky going?]

[Isn't Chuck going with Becky?]

Many fans filled the comment section with questions.

Since each group of guests had only one livestream room, the camera could only follow one of them after Rebecca

and Charlie split up, leaving the other's actions a mystery.

Charlie deliberately ensured that the livestream camera followed him. He sat in the cave, smiling and chatting with

the viewers.

Meanwhile, Rebecca slipped away from the camera and ventured outside. After about ten minutes of trekking

the hills, she finally found two people, Phoebe and her grandfather, Tamron.

"Becky!" Phoebe saw Rebecca and ran over to her, beaming with joy.

She looked around for Charlie and, not seeing him, asked curiously, "Where's Charlie?"

"He's busy with something," Rebecca replied with a smile.

"Oh, Becky, how did your chickens get stolen earlier?" Phoebe asked, lowering her voice to a whisper. "I ran into Lesley and her sister, but they wouldn't say anything when I asked them about it. They were so scared we'd take

their chickens."

The viewers in the livestream burst into laughter at Phoebe's candidness.

Rebecca was surprised by this information. "You ran into them?

you see them?" she inquired.

"Where did you

"They were heading south," Tamron answered with a chuckle.

"Thank you, Mr. Hemsworth," Rebecca said, smiling as she expressed her gratitude. After a few more words of farewell, she turned and left.

As Phoebe watched Rebecca's retreating figure, it took her a moment to realize what was happening. "Grandpa, is

chickens?" Becky going to get revenge on the Bretherton sisters? Or, I mean, is she going to take back her

Phoebe, known for her straightforwardness, almost blurted out the wrong words, Fortunately, she caught herself in time and quickly corrected her words.

In Livestream Room Two, Phoebe's fans adored her candid nature. When they heard her genuine thoughts, they burst into laughter again.

Meanwhile, Rebecca, having obtained the direction she needed, quietly headed south, paying no mind to the happenings in Livestream Room Two.

Many viewers, now unable to follow Rebecca in Livestream Room Five due to her split with Charlie, flocked to Livestream Room Two. Once they finally saw Becky, they began flooding the chat with comments, urging Phoebe to follow her so they could see what Rebecca was up to.

Phoebe, who had struggled with interacting with viewers all day, was taken aback by their sudden excitement and

insistence that she follow Becky.

"Isn't that a bit intrusive?" she asked nervously.

[Not at all! You're filming a variety show, and the program didn't say you couldn't follow Becky, right?]

[Please, Phoebe. We're dying to know what she's planning. Help us out!]

Faced with the overwhelming pleas from the viewers, Phoebe hesitated momentarily. Eventually, her curiosity got the better of her. She bit her lip and agreed, "Alright."

Tamron, being older, couldn't run all over the hills, so Phoebe decided to leave their chickens with him to guard.

She then quietly followed the direction Becky had taken.

The mountainous area, though not small, wasn't vast either. Rebecca followed Phoebe's direction and soon spotted some people. However, she found Janet and Karen instead of Lesley and Angie. Since they were filming a variety show, each person had a cameraman following them. Even from a distance, Rebecca could easily spot the commotion.

Noticing that Janet and Karen didn't have many chickens, she surmised that Lesley hadn't handed over her chickens yet, She quietly bypassed them and continued her search for Lesley.

On the other side of the mountain, Lesley and her sister had carried their eighteen chickens quite a distance. Exhausted, they finally sat down to rest.

'This variety show is really tiring!' she thought.

Despite her fatigue, Lesley was excited as she checked the livestream stats. There were over 400,000 viewers in her livestream, making her heart race excitedly.

'Am I about to become famous?' Looking at the viewer number, she wondered, her heart fluttering.

However, her excitement was quickly tempered when she saw the numbers in Janet's livestream. After an earlier incident, the viewers in Room Four had dropped significantly but was now climbing back up, reaching over

500,000.

The most impressive viewership, though, was in Livestream Room Five. The viewers there had swelled to over 900,000, which was truly an impressive feat.

Lesley sat for a while, gradually cooling down.

As she settled, she recalled why her company sent her to participate in this variety show.

Her participation was entirely due to the company's plan to use her to help Janet during the show's recording. The goal was to make Janet the show's centerpiece, ensuring a flawless comeback for her. But as she considered it, Lesley realized she had done little to help Janet so far.

She glanced again at the viewership in Janet's livestream and then at Charlie's. There was a gap of 400,000 viewers. If this gap wasn't narrowed, Janet's comeback through this show would be considered a failure.
