"There's always a bigger fish in the sea, so losing is no big deal," Rebecca continued with a shrug. "Miss Griffin invited me to a rematch tonight. Maybe she'll take the win again."
Daniel just watched Rebecca, his eyes brimming with admiration. She was even kinder than he had imagined. At a time like this, she was still speaking up for someone who had cheated.
A girl with that kind of heart was a rare find these days.
A smug twinkle flashed in Rebecca's eyes. By looking at Daniel, she could tell she had him wrapped around her finger.
It was pity though, because Daniel was no match for Sherman.
A stepping stone could never be more than just that.
Daniel said, "Ms. Morris, you're too modest. Griffin wouldn't dare show her face, let alone challenge you to a match."
The live stream was about to start, and Griffin was still nowhere to be seen. If that wasn't a sign of guilt, what was?
"Maybe she's just been delayed?" Rebecca suggested. "I don't think Miss Griffin is the type to chicken out."
Just then, Dahlia glanced at her watch and said, "Rebecca, let's head over. The red carpet event is about to begin."
Rebecca nodded and said goodbye to Daniel.
There were over three hundred female hosts lining up for the red carpet walk.
As Rebecca arrived, a buzz of conversation erupted around her.
After all, the cheating scandal between her and Griffin had blown up, and Griffin had even issued a statement saying she would attend the event and had challenged Rebecca to a duel.
With the red carpet event about to start, and Griffin still a no-show, she probably didn't dare to come, did she?
Ugly and a cheater, showing up would only bring her shame.
Staying away was the smart move.
The live streaming platform was buzzing with anticipation.
[Has Griffin shown up yet?]
[Can't wait for the drama!]
[I've been watching for ages and haven't seen anyone that looks like Griffin on the scene. Even if she did show up, there’s no way she could hold a candle to Rebecca's pinky finger.]
[Haha, the cheat is too scared to show!]
