Chapter 147
Rebecca thought her chess game unbeatable, and no one could take her down!
Rebecca didn’t even consider this upstart worth her attention.
At the sight of Rebecca’s nonchalance, Carey let out a sigh of relief, “Then, Ms. Morris, I’ll be heading back.”
“Go ahead,” Rebecca nodded.
Sticking to the plan, Rebecca paid a visit to the Black family.
An hour later.
Rebecca stood by her car, under the blazing sun, but she was overcome with chills, her palms slick with layer upon layer of cold sweat.
“Ms. Luna suddenly passed away from a severe illness half a month ago…” The words of the Black family’s butler echoed in her mind.
How could Luna be dead? Wasn’t it Tammie who was supposed to be the one facing death?
But now, Luna was gone, and Tammie, who deserved to be dead, was alive and well, back
to her normal self.
What in the world had happened?
In her past life, Luna had dominated the business world, monopolizing the entire Cloudcrest industry chain with her ruthless tactics, a true powerhouse of a woman.
But in this life, Luna had died so inexplicably!
“System, can you find out the cause of Luna’s death? And who is this Dr. Yeager who cured Tammie?” The Black family had only announced that Dr. Yeager was the one who cured Tammie without revealing any further details about him.
Was it Anthea? It had to be said that Anthea had changed a lot.
Ever since she left the Morris family, she seemed like a completely different person.
Rebecca frowned. But if Anthea was the legendary miracle doctor, would she still need to work as a waitress in a diner?
And how could someone who was once considered useless suddenly become a miracle healer? That was just a fairy tale!
Just then, the system provided the specifics of Luna’s situation.
Luna’s cause of death was a heart attack. She died a natural death.
Rebecca deepened her frown and then she asked, “Who is Dr. Yeager?”
Dr. Yeager’s identity is a mystery, the system hasn’t found any information yet…”
The system sounded frustrated, ‘But don’t worry. Luna can’t really affect you. Your most important task now is to marry Mr. Christensen and reach the pinnacle of your life!”
With those words, Rebecca felt her frustration dissipate a bit.
After all, the system was infallible in her eyes. If the system said there was nothing to worry about, then these matters had no impact on her.
Besides, she and Luna had never been close. Rebecca had only reached out to her because she thought Luna would achieve great things in the future and wanted to get in her good graces early.
In the evening, Rebecca arrived at the office.
Jack lit up his eyes when he saw her, “Oh, my dear, you’re finally here! The live–streaming room is all set up for you. The 8 o’clock broadcast is waiting, get ready.”
“Got it.” Rebecca put down her bag and sat in front of the makeup mirror, letting the makeup artist work their magic on her already flawless face. With the addition of cosmetics, she looked even more stunning.
Rebecca curled her lips into a slight smile.
Be it in the live streaming world or the world of chess, she was the unquestionable number one! Who could surpass her?
Jack then said, “Oh, have Carey told you about that newcomer, right? Remember to do a live match with her later. That newbie has been gaining too much momentum lately. It’s time for you to quash her spirit and show her who’s the boss in this industry!”
Jack had full faith in Rebecca’s chess skills. She was the only one who could crush that
newbie at this point.
“I do a match with that newbie?” Rebecca turned around in surprise, “Jack, did I hear you right?”
Was she, the queen of the net, competing with a nobody?
Could that rookie win against her? Wasn’t this an insult to her dignity?
