Chapter 393

The two grown men bickered over the phone like children. After several heated exchanges, Nathaniel finally declared, "Stay out of my business with that woman from now on, and this recording won't reach Cassandra."

"Fine, you win. No more meddling or gossip about your affairs." Oliver sounded thoroughly defeated.

"Good boy." Nathaniel nodded in satisfaction.

As always, the mere threat of involving Cassandra was enough to silence even the most persistent gossip like Oliver.

Oliver tried one last desperate attempt before retreating. "You're still coming to tomorrow's dinner, right?"

Seeing Nathaniel unlock his phone with a threatening gesture, Oliver immediately backtracked. "Never mind! Forget I asked."

Though secretly, Oliver thought, 'Keep playing hard to get, Nathaniel. You'll regret this!'

Emily remained in stunned silence after ending the livestream.

Her eyes widened in disbelief as she checked the account balance.

"Holy shit! Even after platform fees, we're looking at millions... They weren't kidding when they said even a blind squirrel finds a nut sometimes."

Vivian couldn't help but laugh. "Who are you calling a blind squirrel now?"

"Me! I'm the squirrel. You're the golden goose. I'm never letting you go, Viv. Till death do us part!" Emily showered Vivian with enthusiastic kisses.

"Okay, okay! You're getting saliva everywhere..." Vivian finally managed to push her away with a sigh. "I never expected that kind of response. If I'd known my face alone could make this much money, I wouldn't have wasted years on R&D."

"Wait, what? You've been doing research? What kind? That's amazing!"

"Not that amazing. Just slightly above average intelligence." Vivian flashed a smug smile before adding mysteriously, "You'll find out soon enough what I've been working on."

Emily changed the subject. "Thanks to you, I got us spots on that dating show. I promised the top bidder a candlelit dinner with you. You okay with that?"

Vivian shrugged with mild interest. "I am curious to see what this mystery man looks like."

"Then let's make it Skyview Restaurant. I'll send the invitation." Emily opened the app and messaged ShadowWalker.

[ShadowWalker, your goddess awaits tomorrow at 8pm, Skyview Restaurant. Don't be late!]

The reply took forever to come through.

When it finally arrived, both girls read it and immediately saw red.

"What kind of idiot is this?"
