The Billionaire's Cursed Heiress

Chapter 87: Chapter 87: RESULTS 6

Sitting inside a medium-sized bedroom was a middle-aged woman, roughly in her forties and in her hands was a phone with a cracked screen.

With a glance, anyone could tell that the phone had experienced so much and it must have been purchased a very long time ago. But what did that matter?

As long as the phone was functioning properly, the woman didn’t need so much.

Despite being in her forties, the woman was someone who recently learned to chase stars.

She wasn’t like that before, but when her daughter, who was in university, returned home one day from school, her life changed.

One day, her daughter came home, excitement coursing through her veins that she couldn’t hide.

Wondering what her only child was so happy about, the woman learnt that her daughter came across a local sickly princess who was broadcasting on Teltivity, a famous online streaming platform and this streamer because of her illness whenever she couldn’t talk, would use sign language.

The woman being mute was someone who learnt Dynalis Sign Language (DSL) to talk with those who could understand, but for others, either write on a notepad or use the phone.

Although she could hear, talking was another matter. So, knowing that there was someone who knew even the international sign language and was communicating with people from all over the globe, how could she remain ignorant?

So, the woman with her daughter’s persuasion downloaded Teltivity and bought her monthly data. So, for a while now, she had been following PRINCESS, whom she finally knew was named Zara, a beautiful name.

And Zara, just last week, announced a competition and it was on knitting. One of the crafts she was good at. Being disabled in any manner is somehow a disadvantage that always constrains an individual.

Being mute caused too much loss and damage in her life. She couldn’t get a regular job or one that required her to use her voice to earn a living, for example, selling goods or services.

How could she convince people when not even a single word could come out of her mouth?

So, she could only find some menial jobs which didn’t require her to communicate a lot. Some of them were housekeeping jobs, which she did nearly half of her adult job. Even now, she was working as a housekeeper in a rich woman’s house.

She didn’t loathe the job at all, as it didn’t require her to sell her job. All she needed to do was clean the house, take care of the house and the kids, and get paid.

Despite doing that job, there were other things she did part-time, and one of them was knitting. Her mistress’s kids loved her knits a lot. So, every year she would knit something for them as well as her beloved daughter.

But who would have known that from nowhere an internet celebrity would come up with such a strange competition and one that garnered a lot of attention like that?

Persuaded by her daughter to join, the woman also registered and in the following week, she used her speed and experience to knit a beautiful jersey for her daughter. Winter was coming and since she hadn’t knitted anything for her daughter, she decided to do it.

The kids of her mistress, knowing that she had joined the competition, were so happy that they shared the news with the parents and the news gradually spread to everyone.

Just like that, everyone’s attention was on the competition and today, being the day of the results, they were all nervous.

Her mistress was loaded and with her canvasing votes from everyone since the maid participating was the same as her participating, the number of votes the woman received was overwhelming.

And yet, after all the hustle that they went through, she became number four. How could that be?

As she looked at her piece stuck on number four, she was dispirited and didn’t know what to actually do.

But when the voice on the screen suddenly said playfully, [We aren’t done yet. Starting the final voting session, which will last as long as the other sessions, we will decide our top three. So, everyone, get your phones ready and start voting.]

Upon hearing that, the woman’s lost hope suddenly got reignited and as she held the phone with trembling hands, the door to the bedroom suddenly opened and three teenagers appeared with smiles on their faces.

"Auntie, let’s get you all the way to the top!"

....

"Damn, are they kidding me? I won this game. So, where is this new session coming from?"

In another place, a young woman was busy crying dejectedly upon hearing the sudden twist from Zara.

....

"Haha, this princess is truly talented. Just look what she had done! With such a great talent, she will become a sensation if she pursues this career. What do you think, Shea?"

Ashely looked at the screen, which was filled with crying emoticons as people shed tears for those who thought had won automatically while those who had not were rejoicing.

To think that after letting people think that the final results had been achieved and then drop such a bomb, since when did her fifth sister become so black-bellied like that?

"Haha, she is quite a talent, and this is very refreshing. We should use it as well!" Ashely couldn’t help but say with a smile.

"Indeed. Since she has been supporting you, how about you share the live broadcast? We have gained so much attention because of her. Who knows what will happen after today?"

Ashely looked at the slightly chubby man with a thoughtful look.

"You really think positive about her?" she couldn’t help but ask.

"Um. She is good, so far everything she has done is not considered being good, but it isn’t bad as well. Her content isn’t the best, but her fans are loyal and they love her. That shows her character. If she was a bad person, these people wouldn’t be wasting their data to watch her."

Upon hearing that, Ashely felt that it somehow made sense.

"Okay then. I will share it. You also share with the official account," Ashely agreed with the assistant director.

The slightly chubby man smiled brightly, happy that he had completed the mission the director had given him.

Ashely soon ignored the man who had achieved what he wanted as she shared the broadcast with her official account, which unfortunately didn’t have as many followers as hers.

Ashely soon found out that she wasn’t alone who thinking of doing so. In Zara’s followers list, a lot of influential celebrities could be found there and the majority of them were those who received major help from her on Teltivity.

So as if everyone had telepathy, on different social platforms, these big Vs were sharing the broadcast.

However, the noise that this caused didn’t amount to anything when suddenly a big V, one no one was expecting, suddenly did the unexpected.
