His Heiress Wife (Retika)

Chapter 101: Do Things with the Brain 

On the weekend, Lance was idle and could only boredly play games at home.

Ata critical moment, his phone suddenly rang.

He took a glance and saw that it was Clifford who was calling him.

However, Lance just looked away after.

In his opinion, Clifford was only calling him to ask him to play games with him for free.

As much as Lance wanted to ignore it, his phone didn't stop ringing, distracting him from playing.

Unable to focus, the enemy in-game managed to shoot him down, his avatar instantly fell to the ground.

As his teammates went to save him, he reached out for his phone and his thumb pressed the answer button.

Before he could curse at Clifford before asking what the hell he wanted from him, Clifford's excited voice could be heard from the other side of the line.

"Lance, big news, big news!"

Lance pressed his tongue against his cheek and gritted his teeth.

His deep voice was lowered further, filled with a strong and threatening sense of warning.

"Kid, you better make sure that your news is really worth it or I'll personally hit your head until you faint!"

Upon hearing Lance's threat, Clifford who was nowhere near Lance subconsciously shrank his neck from fear.

Despite that, he was confident because he was sure that the news he would tell Lance was absolutely big.

"Lance, I saw Melody on TV!"

Hearing this, Lance's eyes were indifferent, and his voice was a little lazy.

He replied, "It's not the first time Boss is on TV.What news does Sullivan Company have this time?"

Realizing that Lance had misunderstood him, Clifford was instantly anxious.

He hurriedly corrected Lance's misunderstanding, "It's not news from Sullivan Company, it's a variety show.Melody went to a variety show as a guest.Is she going to enter the entertainment industry?"

Lance was stunned for a moment.

Variety show? Entertainment Industry? His first thought was, ‘What the hell?’

In the computer in front of him, his character had just been revived by his teammates.

But because he was so shocked, he was AFK and was later shot down by another shot.

His teammate's curse sounded from his headphones, "Lance, what are you doing? Are you AFK? You should at least hide.Why are you simply standing there like a wooden target?"

Lance didn't respond, not caring about the other party's cursing at all.

He quickly made up his mind, directly turning his computer off.

He picked up his phone and walked to the corner of his room, his face showing a rare serious expression.

"Clifford, tell me clearly, what exactly is going on?"

On the site of the variety show.

The competition part of the show had just ended.The other three groups brought their spoils of war, their fishes, to the display platform.The Clark brothers saw the Sullivan sisters taking a rest again.

Secretly, they approached Sarah and discussed with her.

"Sarah, we caught quite a lot.How about you secretly take some of our fish?"

Upon hearing the boys, Sarah slowly raised her head and gently smiled.

Her smile gave off the same vibe as a blooming flower under the sun.

"You don't have to.I think we caught a lot.It should be enough so we don't end up in last place."

When Avery passed by, she happened to hear their conversation.

She sneered.

"Inigo, you and your brother should stop sticking your nose to things that aren't your business.They don't even care about your kind gesture!"

The moment Avery said that, everyone who heard her words felt embarrassed.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became awkward.

The Clark brothers were well-aware that Avery had a lot of fans so they didn't bother to go against her, even if it was to defend themselves.

Fortunately, the director had announced the location for the next meeting, resolving the awkwardness Avery had caused with her words in an instant.

When everyone had arrived in the meeting area the director had set, Avery couldn't hide the smugness in her face.

As early as half an hour ago, her manager had secretly told her that her live stream room was very active.

After the broadcast, her fans had collectively tipped more than a hundred thousand.

So this time, just based on the popularity ranking alone, Avery was very confident that she could win first place.

Not to mention the small internet celebrities, even the movie queen, Rachel, wouldn't win against her.

The director's team started counting the number of fish each pair had in public, starting from the group that arrived last.

Rachel's team was the first one.

The movie queen's son was an outdoor sports enthusiast so he had done a decent job catching fish.His bamboo basket had a total of 18 pounds of live fish.

Next were the Clark brothers.

As the two of them worked together, although they were individually weaker than the movie queen's son, they did a little better than Rachel's team.

The fish they caught collectively weighed 20 pounds, just a little bit higher than the first team.

Next were Avery and Noah, who only had a total of 12 pounds of live fish.Although they had the lowest fish count, Avery wasn't worried at all.

There was still a pair who had done worse than them.

She inwardly thought that, no matter what, that small celebrity was definitely at the bottom.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, Sarah's group had fish.

After they were done weighing the fish, everyone was dumbfounded.

Who could've expected that Sarah's group would actually catch 40 pounds worth of fish? Avery was so surprised, she forgot to be stunned.

Disbelief written all over her face, she commented.

"How is this possible? They cheated, right?"

Noah quickly grabbed Avery.

He took off his earphones and spoke in a low voice.

"Be careful of what you say, this is a live broadcast!"

Only then did Avery realize her mistake.She quickly reacted, adjusting her expression. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

The surprise on her face was instantly replaced by a teasing look.She chuckled and said in a joking tone.

"This is too unbelievable.Don't you think so?"

It wasn't just Avery, the other two groups of guests also thought that it was strange.

The Clark brothers got along well with Sarah, so they directly asked, "Sarah, how did you guys do it? Amazing! You caught twice as much as ours!"

With a proud look on her face, Sarah happily explained to everyone, "l didn't any them.My sister did all the work.Isn't she amazing?"

As the champions, Sarah's group had to go on stage to give a speech.

It was supposed to be the audience interviewing them, but the director's team did it instead.

The assistant asked, "Sarah's and her little sister, how do you feel about winning the title ‘Fishing Master?"

Sarah smiled faintly and responded with a soft voice, "I'm very happy, but this title should not belong to me.After all, I'm not the one who caught the fish!"

After she finished speaking, the director immediately had the crew shift the camera to Melody.

A face that looked like it was exquisitely sculpted by a fine craftsman instantly appeared on the screen.

The viewers were instantly stunned.

The chat room was once again boiling.

[OMG OMG OMG her skin is so good, I don't see a single frickin pore and it's a close close shot]

[ she's bare-faced wOAH ]

[I am soocooo gonna look for the skincare product she's using I want it I want it I want it where is ittt]

The assistant who was interviewing Melody was also attracted to Melody’s cool and glamorous vibe.

It took her a while to gain her senses back.

She slowly said, "Miss Melody, can I ask how you managed to catch a lot of fish to win first place? What can you say about it?"

After asking, the whole scene fell silent for about three seconds.

The assistant felt awkward from Melody's lack of response.

She felt like this young lady was too cold.

But for the sake of her job and the program, she could only bite her tongue and ask again, "Missy Melody, maybe you can tell us about your experience? How did you manage to catch a lot of fish?"

Melody lifted her eyes lazily, looking at the camera with cold eyes.Her pink lips opened as she spoke, her voice cold as ever.

"You just need to use your brain when you do things!"

This simple sentence, which sounded so handsome and domineering, shocked the assistant, who was just doing her job.

The assistant thought to herself, 'How can she dare say something like that? Isn't she afraid that she'll offend other people?’

Sarah's hands were covered in cold sweat upon hearing Melody’s reply.She hurriedly stepped forward to help Melody cover up her blunder.

After all, there were so many viewers and it was not good to offend too many people.

"Sorry, Mellie isn't just good at expressing herself.She just meant that it will be faster to use strategies to reach your goals!"

Unfortunately, no matter how much Sarah tried to explain, it was futile.Avery and the others, including the viewers were already fuming.
