My Dreamy Old Husband
Chapter 375

Sophia's face flushed red and her heart was thumping fast.

Sitting next to her, Scary Phoenix was logging into his account.

Sophia glanced at him surreptitiously as he deftly entered his user ID and password, looking like thereal deal.

No way! She must be having a dream!

But the truth was, she wasn't dreaming and Michael was really Scary Phoenix.

Was there anything in the world he couldn't do?

Sophia kept her eyes glued to him as though she was trying to see through his body and reach hissoul.

Michael, who seemed to be able to sense her gaze, cast a glance in her direction.

She immediately averted her gaze back to the screen of her computer.

When Michael stopped looking at her, she continued peeking at him immediately.

Suddenly, she noticed that she received a private message from Scary Phoenix.

Scary Phoenix: “Be at your best in the game later. If you can defeat the blue team, I'll reward youwith costumes in bed tonight.’

Sophia's face turned crimson in an instant when she saw the blatantly dirty message. Out of instinct,she gave a scan to her surroundings and typed furiously: “Delete the message right now or it will bespotted by the audience later!"

Scary Phoenix replied: “Don't worry, they won't be able to read the message.’

Sirius233: "You shouldn't be sending inappropriate things now even though they won't be able toread it!’

They were participating in a top-notch global championship held at Bayside National Stadium whichwas broadcasted live all over the world; she couldnt believe he was still in the mood to flirt with herat this hour!

Lord, could you take this more seriously?!

Michael finally stopped flirting with her and adopted his combat status when the game started. Asfor Sophia, she first took a deep breath before she was ready to start the group battle.

Several seconds before the game started, she sneaked a look at Michael again.

From her angle, all she could see was his side-profile that looked stern and serious. Exuding a totallydifferent aura now, it seemed like he had transformed from a hopeless flirt into a prolific swordsmanjust like his character in the game

Before the game began, Sophia was still feeling somewhat jittery but now, she suddenly had afeeling that they would be able to defeat anyone as long as Michael was around.

The game officially started.

The battle started off intensely as all the players first went around to look for their opponentsaccording to their strategy. As Sophia's character was relatively weaker in the team, her opponentwas also the weaker player in the opposing team.

Joint attacks was the main strategy of the opposing team as Scary Phoenix was besieged by threeplayers at one time as soon as the game started. Meanwhile, the remaining five players of the teamwere tasked with stopping the players of the red team from going to Scary Phoenix's rescue.

The blue team believed that once they managed to kill Scary Phoenix, his death would be a fatalblow to the red team!

Players of the red team immediately tried to break their defence to help Scary Phoenix. Theaudiences, some wearing red and some wearing blue, were cheering and clapping ecstaticallybecause the game had started off in a very exciting manner.

Harry and Daniel were watching the game that was projected on the big screen on the VIP platform.Harry sounded anxiety-ridden as he rambled on, “Daddy, hang in there! Gosh, Sirius is about to befinished off by the blue team too! Stanley, you stupid dog! Why don’t you go and help them outnow?!"

Contrary to Harry, Daniel appeared much more collected because he wasn't a gamer and he had noidea what he was talking about. He was of the opinion that Michael and Harry had been rude byleaving Natasha's piano concert to be here.

"How will Natasha feel when she realizes you guys left her piano concert halfway?”

Harry and Michael, who had both received invitations from Natasha, were watching the pianoconcert at the concert hall opposite the stadium just now. However, they realized that Michael, whowas the special guest of the concert, had actually left halfway through to play in the tournament atthe stadium.

No one knew what sort of a scene Natasha would make if she found out about his departure.

Harry couldn't be bothered about Natasha's reaction because what concerned him the most at themoment was the fact that both his Daddies were struggling to fend off their opponents.

Nathan was also watching the big screen nervously at his two Daddies who looked invincible andpowerful in the game.

In the meantime, the piano concert came to a perfect ending and Natasha received a standingovation with numerous bouquets of flowers from the audience. Looking just like a princess who hadall eyes on her, she held the flowers in one hand and the microphone in the other as she gave asincere speech, “Holding a piano concert like this has always been my dream and it finally came truetoday. Firstly, I'd like to express my gratitude...”

She glanced at Taylor's seat but found it was still empty. In fact, Taylor had only watched her concertfor several minutes before he left and never came back.

He was the reason why she had the piano concert today. She had dressed up to the nines for theoccasion and performed the most beautiful songs in an attempt to move his soul. Yet, her grandpiano concert turned out to be meaningless because it was missed by its most important audience.Amending her speech on the spot, Natasha said instead, “I'd like to express my gratitude to myteacher...”

After the piano concert ended, Natasha went to take a rest backstage where she fished out herphone to make a call to Taylor.

At the national stadium, a phone in Nathan's pocket suddenly rang with an unknown numbershown on the screen. After he picked up, he heard a sweet and pleasant voice say, “Taylor, where areyou now? My piano concert has just ended. How about we have dinner together tonight?”

Nathan answered her icily, “My Dad will be having dinner with Mom at home tonight and he has notime for you. Get lost.”

Click.

He hung up on her.

Natasha stared blankly at her phone

She couldn't believe what she just heard.

Did he just ask her to get lost?!

Was the boy Taylor's son? She was surprised to learn that Taylor actually had a son this big.

No, it couldn't be the case. Taylor must have lost his phone and a random kid must have found it.He even had the guts to speak so rudely to her.

She couldn't believe there existed someone in the world who dared to speak to her that way.Immediately, she dialed the number and it was picked up by that boy again.

Trying hard to make herself sound friendly, she said, “Hi darling, can you please ask your father toget this? Tell him I'm Natasha.”

Nathan glanced at the screen where his two Daddies were working together to battle it out withtheir opponents in the game.

“My Dad is very busy now,” he answered.

Click!

He hung up on her again.

On the other end of the phone call, Natasha was so pissed off by the little boy that her entire bodywas shaking.

Immediately, she summoned her assistant over and seethed, “Where have Taylor and Harry gone?Find out where they are now!”

Her assistant knew the answer without the need to check. “Taylor has gone to the National Stadiumto participate in the Esports World Championship. It has gone viral all over the internet now and youmay check the news articles written about him.”

Natasha quickly checked her phone and found that news articles with the title “Taylor Murray is thechampion of the Esports World Championship’ had mushroomed all over the internet.

She clicked into one of those and found pictures of Taylor gaming in the stadium.

She checked the timestamp and found that the tournament started at two thirty, which meant Taylormust have made his way to the stadium before that time. So, did he only stay at the concert hall fora few minutes just now?

Scrolling the article, she spotted Sophia in one of the pictures too. Was she referring to the EsportsWorld Championship when she told her she was going to take part in a global competition lastnight?

Was an online gaming competition a legitimate global competition?

In her perception, playing online games was only something done by poor people who had nothingbetter to do in their lives, and she couldn't understand why a competition was even held forsomething like that.

She was even more puzzled when she saw Taylor taking part in such a competition.

Abruptly, she stood bolt upright and thrusted her phone to the floor angrily. “I'm going there to seewhat it is all about!”

As her piano concert had ended, the audience were leaving the concert hall. Those who were invitedto the concert were all big shots who were either extremely wealthy or enjoyed respectable socialstatuses. On top of that, all of them were very accomplished in the artistic world.

The audience left in an orderly manner as luxurious cars came and went one by one at the entranceof the concert hall.

Seeing this, Natasha was proud of herself because they had all come here to watch herperformance.

Then, she made her way to the National Stadium. Although the game had already started, there wasstill a throng of people lingering outside the stadium as many of those who didn’t manage to get aticket or couldn't afford one were watching the livestream of the competition there.

There were at least thousands of them outside the stadium, which was way more than the numberof people who attended her concert. There was even a troop of security officers watching over thearea to maintain order.
