Chapter 400: Chapter 398: GAMES

Diamond was kindly escorted inside by the station’s staff and she kindly chatted with the other until she was taken to the table where she would be sitting during the whole event.

The show was going to last four to five hours, a very excruciating moment to watch people singing and dancing, but what could she do?

She got paid already and she can’t back out.

When she arrived, a lot of heads turned and she maintained a smile on her face, even when she saw the person who would be sitting next to her in the several hours.

Looking at the neighbor of hers with a friendly smile that didn’t expose anything, Diamond couldn’t help but curse inwardly as she felt her heart pang with sadness and reluctance.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t expose herself.

’How could I lose to such a person?’ she found it unbelievable.

Diamond sat down on her seat, with her name tag placed neatly on the table.

After sitting down, she turned her head towards the three other people who she was sharing the table with and greeted them politely without any signs of flattery in her words. "Hello, everyone. I am Diamond from Frin," revealing the basic information that she was willing to part with.

When the other three heard that, they all looked at her smilingly before exchanging their names.

Her neighbor, the one she didn’t like, was named Izzy and she was from Dielas, an international socialite, so she introduced herself as.

The other two were locals, with one being a comedian and the other a magician.

Knowing that there was a magician at the table, Diamond’s interest focused more on her ignoring Izzy, who kept on trying to start a conversation with her whenever she found a gap.

Unfortunately, Diamond couldn’t ignore Izzy forever, so once in a while, she would return and chat with a smile on her face.

The music show finally started, which was a relief. She didn’t need to be forced to continue talking with anyone now.

With her phone in hand, Diamond kept a closer watch on what fans were talking about in her Ioniq livestream, mostly since it was the major accounts she loved dearly.

Her ears were listening to the songs while her eyes were busy on the screen.

Izzy, sitting next to Diamond, could see what the other was doing. She couldn’t help but ball her fists, furious at how carefree this person was.

"What are you watching?" Izzy suddenly asked, her voice considered to be low and yet not that low as those people sitting at the next tables heard it.

Diamond cursed inwardly Izzy’s several generations as she raised her head, a smile pasted on her face and answered, "I am chatting with my fans!" not bothered to conceal what she was doing at all.

Upon hearing that, Izzy’s eyes sparkled as interest flashed in them, making Diamond feel like pummeling the other right there for the umpteenth time.

"What do you do? You must have a lot of fans?" Izzy asked curiously, her tone very sincere. It made those who were watching find no wrong in her words.

Diamond, seeing the other’s interest in her, beamed as she had been looking forward to this moment for a very long time. Or rather for hours, ever since Andrea told her that she would be sitting next to Izzy.

How could she not be happy to play a game when she was this furious?

"Me?" she asked with a chuckle before continuing, "I am a lady of many trades, but those who love me call me an influencer, a socialite or an e-celeb. I am not even sure which is which, but as long as they are happy, I am happy as well!"

Upon hearing that, Izzy felt that Diamond was a boastful person. Otherwise, how could she say something that shameless when broadcasting the whole thing?

Unfortunately, just like Diamond, she didn’t show her true emotions but simply smiled as she responded, "Then it must be good. You should be earning a lot from it!" her gaze scanning Diamond a bit.

Honestly, she was furious and envious just looking at Diamond right now. She wasn’t a nobody, and she knew a lot of things, especially brands.

What Diamond was wearing right now was from VERTAH, that mysterious brand which sells its clothes at an exaggerated price.

Owning one piece of clothing from VERTAH could grant you entry to a lot of places, and yet if she wasn’t mistaken, this person owns several pieces from VERTAH and never once was she seen wearing them again.

The gown was expensive and if she added the diamonds and rubies, Izzy felt like tearing the other apart. However, haste makes waste, and she didn’t dare waste the chance she got to come this close to Diamond without the other suspecting a single thing.

Diamond in response to Izzy’s remarks chuckled, a sly smile forming on her face before answering, "If only this side hustle of mine really paid as everyone said, I would be rolling in money right now," shaking her head as she recalled the measly amount of money she had earned ever since she had started.

Upon hearing that, Izzy felt that she had received an opening. She couldn’t help but probe, "Aren’t you monetized?"

Diamond sighed dejectedly when she heard that, and her fans seeing that, couldn’t help but send several comments, [ROFL!], [The drama queen is here!], and many others, knowing that their idol was about to rant nonsense again.

"I am monetized, but I barely get enough money to pay for fuel. Tell me, how can this be lucrative?" sounding a bit wronged and dissatisfied with the whole scenario.

Izzy smiled smugly inwardly, cheering at how heartbroken those fans might be hearing such remarks from Diamond. However, her happiness was cut short when Diamond added, "With all the money I have, why should I steal from my fans? It wasn’t like I started all this to get their money!" clicking her tongue, her expression very dramatic.

Upon hearing that, even the two tablemates just listening couldn’t help but chuckle, surprised by how sharp-tongued Diamond could be at times.

"You ...."
