Love or Die CEO’s Daily Dose of Swoon Chapter 191

When the door swung open a stepped through, Sweetheart was taken aback. She had heard Jungler and Learner online; the voice had been cool but , and she had been sure it belonged to a girl. A guy? This was a surprise.

But as she processed the twist, Sweetheart couldn’t help but allow a playful smile to lighten her features.

What a scammer!

Still, if scammer was a guy, and such a looker at that, maybe she could let it slide. A little flutter of her lashes, a pout of her lips, and all would be forgiven.

Her train of thought was interrupted by his next words, and that’s when it clicked – he wasn’t Learner. So, who was Learner really?

The whole chat room was buzzing with curiosity about who could possibly have such a dashing boyfriend, when Cordelia strolled in wearing her high school uniform.

She slung her backpack over one shoulder, her wide eyes sweeping the room before fixing on Jungler and Sweetheart. Her face was framed by a ponytail and topped with a baseball cap, her complexion porcelain and flawless. She was tall and lean, her oversize jacket swaying with her every move.

Every guy in the live chat held their breath as they laid eyes on her. What a knockout!

Logan was completely dumbfounded. He shot to his feet, incredulity etched across his face, “Are you Learner?”

Cordelia nodded, “Yeah.” Her voice was cool, her responses succinct. Logan almost couldn’t believe it – Learner was stunning. Why hadn’t she shared a photo?

He just stood there, gobsmacked. Sweetheart was equally stunned.

As streamer, Sweetheart knew her audience there for her gaming skills – most were guys who came for her looks. But now, seeing Cordelia, the chat room exploded in surprise.

–“Holy smokes, she’s gorgeous!”

–“I’m all in for this girl!”

–“She’s a student, right? And she’s this pretty without makeup? Natural beauty!”

–“It’s a blurry cam, but even that can’t hide her good looks!”

In the silent room, Everard rose and pulled out a chair for Cordelia. She hung her backpack on the back of

her chair and sat down, and Everard took the seat next to her.

Now both in frame, the comments were all praise:

“What a visual feast! She’s beautiful, and he’s so handsome!”

–“I can’t even, they’re too perfect!”

–“Wait, does she look familiar to anyone else?”

-Probably because all pretty girls look familiar to you?

–“No, for real, I’ve seen her in a TV show recently… That’s it! She acted alongside Bland!”

“I just googled it, she does look like that actress!”

Looking at Sweetheart now, and then at her… I’m reminded of what someone said about the difference between streamers and actresses…

–“She’s an actress? No wonder she’s so stunning!”

After regaining her composure, Sweetheart started reading the comments and caught that made her up. “So you really are Learner,”

Cordelia glanced at her, uninterested in responding.

Logan, however, asked, “And how should we address you?”

Cordelia thought for a moment, Just call me Learner.”

Her distant demeanor left no room for confusion. She was here for one reason only to clean up a mess, and certainly not to buddy up with the likes of Jungler and Sweetheart.

Logan looked embarrassed at the rebuff and turned back to Sweetheart. He had thought Sweetheart was pretty with a great , but next to Cordelia’s radiant beauty, Sweetheart suddenly seemed dull by

comparison.

Logan cleared his throat to speak, but Sweetheart beat him to it, “Learner, so you’re actress? How old are you? Are you still in school?”

Actress? Logan froze, along with the rest of the streamers. They all turned to look at Cordella.

Sweetheart’s words were loaded with skepticism about Cordelia’s student status, especially since Jungler had been told she was a student.

As the room filled with tension, Everard let out a scoff. His laugh was laced with scorn, drawing everyone’s

attention.

Logan asked, “What’s so funny?”

Everard leaned back in his chair, oozing confidence. Even with his presence toned down, he seemed untouchable. He glanced at Sweetheart and clicked his tongue, “Not only lacking in looks but in perception, too?”

The room was filled with confusion.

Sweetheart’s face turned beet red, “Why are you insulting me?”

“Did I say anything untrue?” Everard’s chin tilted up slightly, “Didn’t you see her uniform?”

Everyone turned to look, and that’s when they noticed the embroidery on Cordelia’s jacket: Greenmeadow

International School.

Sweetheart’s expression faltered again. After several comebacks and the unexpected revelation of Cordelia’s beauty, Sweetheart was losing her composure.

She blurted out, “How do we know that’s real? She’s an actress; how could she still be in school?”

At that moment, Logan looked up, his face somber. He had found online articles about Cordelia… Actress Cordelia, who had in a TV series with Bland, playing his unattainable love interest to widespread acclaim. And this actress had been scouted right from her school.

So, Cordelia was indeed a student.

He fixed his on Sweetheart and spoke up, “She’s just a student, drop it.”

Sweetheart took a deep breath, feeling even more stifled. She wanted to retort, but Logan had already called out, “Excuse me, bring out the food!”

One by one, the servers entered, bringing out the meticulously prepared dishes.

This silenced Sweetheart.

The Sapphire Sojourn Hotel was a top–tier establishment, where the dishes were as appealing to the eye as they were to the palate, albeit pricey and served in modest portions.

Cordelia was indeed famished, thinking she’d eat first and tackle the issues later, and so she eagerly eyed the food being served.

Everard couldn’t help but smirk at her anticipation.

As the steaks were placed on the table, he promptly served her, and Cordelia began to eat with demure gratitude.

Observing their interaction, Sweetheart’s gaze darkened. She then put on a smile and chimed in, “Right, Learner, eat up. It’s not every day you get to dine at a place like this, right? Bet you’ve never been here before?”

Without pausing, she continued with a smile, “I just ordered some bisque of lobster. Want some?”

Upon hearing this, Cordelia slowly raised her head.
