Chapter 177: Chantelle, You Shouldn’t Be So Cold Anymore

Chapter 177: Chapter 177: Chantelle, You Shouldn’t Be So Cold Anymore

"You’re acting weird, Mommy. Did you sleepwalk to Daddy’s room last night?" Kane asked, looking curious.

Oh my. Kane is too smart.

Chantelle quickly thought of a way to distract him.

"Well, Kane, you’ve been wanting a playmate. Should we invite Steph over for a few days?" she asked with a sweet smile.

"Oh, Steph is always busy. We shouldn’t bother her," Kane replied right away. "Oh no! I have to go to check Rai now!"

The moment he heard Steph’s name, he ran off in a hurry.

Chantelle smiled broadly as she watched Kane run away.

Ha! He better not ask for a baby sister again. If he does, I’ll invite Steph over to play with him, Chantelle thought as she walked back to her room.

Daniel had overheard their conversation. He narrowed his eyes and smirked.

He glanced at his phone. Steph’s information had just been sent to him. He downloaded it instantly.

Meanwhile, Roman had finished editing the video of him beating up James.

He told Kingsley to come with him and bring the equipment needed for a live broadcast.

They headed to the Bently Residence.

The mansion was now a pile of rubble. Roman didn’t have the money to rebuild it.

Everything was in ruins. Broken bricks and ashes were scattered everywhere.

Roman pushed open the gate and looked around. He found the perfect spot.

Then, he started his livestream.

To make himself look pitiful, Roman wore an old, worn-out padded jacket. He didn’t use any heating equipment.

Before the live stream started, Kingsley posted the edited video online to draw attention.

The video gained views quickly.

People were curious and wanted to know everything.

As soon as Roman went live, the number of viewers shot up.

Roman was pleased with the reaction.

He began answering questions right away.

"What you see behind me is the Bently Residence. This used to be our home. Sadly, my wife cheated on me with James. He burned down my house out of revenge. But I couldn’t prove it."

He added, "I didn’t want to speak up until James tried to hurt my daughter."

To make himself look like the victim, he blamed James for the fire.

People online hated betrayal.

The video made them angry at James.

Many viewers apologized to Roman for judging him too soon.

Some viewers even suggested canceling their refunds.

Roman was excited when he saw that.

He knew playing the victim would work in his favor.

That’s why, before the live stream, he had already made a deal with the manufacturer.

He planned to keep selling the product during the stream.

By working directly with the manufacturer, he could earn more money without needing Leon Network.

"I hope you won’t ask for refunds," Roman said with a sincere look. "I’m really sorry for all the trouble. That’s why the manufacturers and I have agreed to give a big discount for all new and existing orders."

"Wow, that’s very kind of you, Mr. Bently."

"Yeah, it’s touching to see how much you care about your customers."

"Mr. Bently, you’re not just a great father—you’re a responsible streamer. I’ll tell all my friends to support your business."

"Mr. Bently, does your daughter know about your sacrifice?" someone asked in the comments.

"Isn’t it time for Chantelle to realize her mistake?"

"Chantelle, you shouldn’t be so cold anymore!"

Soon, the viewers shifted their focus to Chantelle’s actions.

"I know Chantelle has her reasons," Roman said with a gentle tone, "but I believe she’ll come back to me one day."

After hearing his explanation, the viewers felt even more sorry for Mr. Bently.

If I keep getting this much attention, I’ll become the richest streamer in no time, Roman thought proudly.

"Dad!" a familiar voice suddenly rang out.

Roman quickly turned his head and fell off his chair in shock.

"Dad, what happened? Are you okay? Did you get hurt?" Chantelle asked in a voice full of worry. She quickly rushed over and grabbed his arm to help him up.

Roman’s camera recorded everything. The livestream viewers were stunned.

"Wait... that’s Chantelle, right? I’m not seeing things, am I?"

"Mr. Bently’s dream finally came true. Chantelle came to see him. This is so touching."

"She really looks worried about him. They don’t seem to be fighting at all."

"I agree with that last comment!"

Everyone watching Roman’s livestream started speculating and chatting about how sweet the moment was between him and his daughter.

Roman had finally calmed down a bit. With the help of Chantelle and Kingsley, he got up and slowly sat back down in his chair.

"C-Chantelle? Why are you here?" Roman asked, clearly surprised. He couldn’t help but wonder if she had another reason for showing up.

But since the livestream was getting more attention, he decided to keep it going.

"I just came to check on you. I didn’t know you were live streaming," Chantelle said simply.

"But it’s fine. I’ll join you." She pulled up a chair and sat down beside him.

"Huh?" Roman was about to stop her, but before he could say anything, she had already taken a seat and was smiling at the viewers.

"Hello, everyone. I’m Chantelle Bently. Thanks so much for watching my dad’s livestream! I hope you’ll keep supporting him," she said warmly.

In just a moment, she came across as a shy but caring daughter who wanted to help her father succeed.

"Yes, yes, that’s right," Roman quickly added. "I’m so grateful for all your support. I’m really touched that Chantelle came today. I’m sure it was all your kind wishes that brought her here..." He noticed his viewer count was rising fast, so he stopped worrying about why she showed up and just went along with it.

He thought people would start rushing to buy his products after that.

But sadly, no one was paying attention to him anymore.

"Ms. Bently, is it true that you’re now Mrs. Daniel Wilson? What’s it like living such a luxurious life?"

"Did you try the eye cream your dad mentioned earlier? He said he picked it just for you. Does it really work?"

"Yes, and how about the shampoo? Your hair looks amazing! If that’s the secret, I’m buying ten bottles right now!"

"Make that ten for me too!"

Chantelle looked stunning on camera. Her skin was smooth and fair like porcelain.

Even with the wind messing up her hair, it still looked soft and shiny like silk. It was impossible not to notice her.

Roman started to panic when he saw that the viewers were no longer paying attention to him.
