Chapter 80
Sweet Subterfuge
Larissa locked up frantically at Zero, who gave her a reassuring look in return. Bracing herself against the table with one hand, Zero bent down to look at the camera.
âI wonât be streaming games today,â she said seriously. âI just want to take up a little bit of your time, to borrow a bit of your power to seek justice for my Lady Luck.â
The phrase âLady Luckâ was always something Zero said whenever she played tournaments back then.
âI called my Lady Luck last night; we will definitely win this tournament!â
âIf my Lady Luck said we can get the championship, we WILL get the championship!â
The fans who had followed Zero from the beginning knew that this Lady Luck was someone she saw as someone more important than her own teammates, and Larissa made quite a deep impression on them when she spent a thousand dollars on 100 Tier 2 Gift Subs on Zeroâs first stream.
The comments went a little wild.
âWoah man! We finally get to meet Lady Luck today!â
âSheâs Lady Luck indeed!â
âBro Zeroâs Lady Luck is mine too!â
âWhere Lady Luck says we go, we will go!â
Surprisingly, there were no complaining comments at all.
Zero had been prepared to have abuse hurled at her, but her fansâ reaction was really unexpected.
âThank you for your understanding and support.â She actually felt like crying. âNext, Iâll leave the stream to my Lady Luck.â
Larissa figured things out pretty quickly, and she composed herself while Zero was speaking.
âHi, everyone.â She looked into the camera naturally. âIâm Larissa Seymour. If anyone has seen last Thursdayâs episode of âThe Mediators Roomâ, then you should know my other identityâyes, I am the one Ms. Levange calls her traitorous and selfish daughterâinâlaw.â
A wave of âHoly shit!â immediately flooded the comments section.
âMy refusal to go on to the show was not because of guilt, as many may think. I just didnât want to be treated as a joke by others. But I didnât think that Ms. Levange would team up with the production crew and slander 1. me.
âAs for the things Ms. Levange has said, I will clarity each and every one of them. But first, Iâd like to make it clear that I have prepared to take legal action and sue Ms. Levange and the production crew of âThe Mediators Room for defamation. The attorneyâs letter has already been drafted-â Larissa removed said document from her bag and showed it to the camera. âIt will be sent out tomorrow.â Outside, Dylan puffed up angrily. âWhen did she find a lawyer?! Why didnât she come to me?! Is she looking down on me?! Doesnât she know that I handle more than just divorce cases?!â
