My Dreamy Old Husband
Chapter 377

Toward the end of the game, both teams were left with three players and for the red team, theywere Snow Fox, Scary Phoenix and Sirius233, who was incredible and had performed exceptionallywell by using the move “Turbo Tornado’ to her advantage. The three players had great rapport asthey worked seamlessly together to defend round after round of attacks from the blue team andfinish off their opponents one by one.

Sirius233 was no doubt the most outstanding player of the game today. She started off as theweakest player of the team but surprisingly, she managed to fight her way to the very end and sheseemed invincible despite only having a dangerously little amount left in her health points.

In the end, Sirius slaughtered the captain and also the strongest player of the blue team with hersword. After squealing miserably, the character died and the entire blue team was wiped out whilethe red team still had three players standing.

“Ladies and gentlemen, the champion of the Esports World Championship this year is—the DragonFox Team!"

All eight players of the team leapt to their feet in excitement as they waved at the audience to thanktheir support. Stanley was so thrilled that he jumped from the spot he stood and swept Sophia offher feet.

"Sophia, we won! We won! We're the world champions!”

Sophia felt exhilarated for the victory too.

Winning the world championship would give her five points in credit hours!

Amidst the excitement, Stanley suddenly felt a chill down his spine as though he was targeted by apredator. Trembling in fear, he immediately let Sophia down.

As soon as Stanley loosened his hold on her, Sophia turned round to throw her arms aroundMichael excitedly. She nearly went on to give him a smooch just like how they usually did at homebut fortunately, her mind was pulled back to reality by the thunderous clapping and rapturous cheerfrom the audience. In the end, she only gave him a courteous hug.

Her action revved up the audience at once because not everyone had the honor to hug TaylorMurray, the hottest movie star at the moment!

After hugging Michael, Sophia immediately gave Sean a hug too to distract the audience'sattention.

Stanley was so ecstatic that he lunged forward to Michael and clung to him.

“Uncle Michael, I won! I won!"

Michael caressed his head and urged, “Be calm.”

As he had won the championship once before, Michael looked more composed at the moment butstill, he was delighted.

In the midst of cheers and applause, the representative of the International e-Sports Federationpresented the medals to the champion team. A gigantic trophy was then lifted up to the air by theeight players of the team!

The inside of the stadium which contained almost a hundred thousand spectators were immersed ina lively and heated atmosphere. Looking at the sea of red flags fluttering and waving vigorously inthe audience, Sophia's heart was thumping fast with an excitement which was beyond words.Never in her wildest dreams had she thought that she would one day be able to receive an award atBayside National Stadium!

Her eyes then moved away from the glittering trophy to the man standing next to her.

This man was just like an angel that had fallen from his pedestal in the sky and came to brighten upevery aspect in her life. He was so talented and strong in a way that was beyond her imaginationbecause every time she thought she knew him well enough, he could immediately surprise her.

He was her husband, her “dom top’ in the game!

As the cameramen were constantly snapping photos of them, Sophia tried to tone down theadmiration in her eyes and she tried to stop herself from constantly staring at him.

When it was time for a team photo, they placed the trophy on the floor in the middle and the eightof them stood horizontally in a line.

As the strongest player of the team, Scary Phoenix was urged to stand in the middle just in front ofthe trophy on which he placed his slender fingers. Although he would be awarded prize moneyfrom winning the championship, which was actually an amount that he would be able to earn byworking for only a few days, what really gave him the joy was winning it together with the players inhis team.

While Michael stood in front of the trophy, Stanley the captain stood to his left and beside him wasSean the vice captain.

Needless to say, Sophia stood next to Michael. At first, she planned to stand further away from himwith the intention to avert suspicion but everyone was egging her on to stand beside him becauseher character was Scary Phoenix's “bottom’ in the game.

Their characters were a famous couple in it.

The tournament came to a successful conclusion.

As the news of Taylor's sudden appearance at the game soon spread around, the area outside thestadium was now crowded with not only esports enthusiasts, but also tons of Taylor's fans whohoped to get a glimpse of their idol.

After the tournament ended, players of both teams walked down the stage and went backstage.Some of the players from the blue team who recognized Michael as Taylor Murray startedapproaching him to take pictures with him. Taylor was not only a popular figure in Cethos, but theentire world as well because he had acted in movies produced in both Cethos and in Europe. In fact,he was the first Cethos actor who was able to make a name in Europe.

Earlier this year, he had just finished shooting the movie “Doctor Invincible’ which was a sci-fiblockbuster much-anticipated by both local and foreign fans. The movie was currently in the editingphase and it would be shown during the next New Year.

However, Michael was besieged by a bunch of reporters who materialized out of nowhere as soonas he walked down from the stage.

“Mr. Murray, may I know when did you start playing online games?”

“Mr. Murray, I heard that Sirius233 and you are a couple in the game. Did the two of you meet eachother before in real life?”

“Mr. Murray, can you comment on the performance of your partner?”

Usually, Michael would ignore the reporters because he couldn't be bothered to answer theirpointless questions.

But when he saw Sophia who was having an interview with a reporter together with Stanley fromthe corner of his eyes, he decided to answer the reporters.

"I started when I was just a kid and it has been over ten years since I started playing online games.In fact, I've been participating in esports tournaments even before I debuted as an actor and playinggames is my lifelong passion which I will never give up. I hope no one reads too much into myrelationship with Sirius233 because we shouldn't confuse what happens in the virtual world withthose in reality. In fact, the two of us only play as a couple to accomplish the missions in the game.As for Sirius233, I must say she is a very excellent esports player who has great potential in thefuture.”

With that, he ignored them and walked away under the escort of the security officers.

While Sophia was doing interviews with the reporters together with the rest of the team, her eyeshad been tracking Michael's slender and lanky body until the moment he vanished out of her sight.The Esports World Championship came to an end and Taylor Murray's surprise appearancesuccessfully attracted everyone's attention.

No one had expected that Taylor Murray, the winner of multiple Best Actor Awards, would also be aprominent esports player. On top of that, he had started participating in esports tournaments evenbefore he started his acting career.

Once again, his popularity soared to an all-time high.

The tournament which had been a global sensation for around half a year finally ended. The factthat the tournament was won by a young team made up of Asians who had an average age of onlytwenty five caused a great stir in the esports world, and the surprise appearance of Taylor Murraygave the event a perfect ending.

After that, the crowd inside the stadium filed out in an orderly manner.

It was only then did Natasha get released from the locked room. She was green with envy when shesaw the sea of people wearing a mixture of red and blue outside the stadium.

As she had been watching the livestream of the game just now, she spotted Sophia and Taylortogether.

She was not a gamer but she could see that they actually had even more fans than her.

What was so special about that b*tch that made so many people love her?

Why did she get to take part in the same competition with her crush?

She was not worthy of having all those!

Taylor was supposed to date her, not that b*tch!

Natasha then spotted Joel somewhere outside the stadium and she threatened him menacingly,"You'd better be careful because I'll remember you!"
