Chapter 37 Live Stream Drama
Finished
Amelia tried not to put pressure on Nemi. “You can just sit here and answer questions. We have several days left. If you aren’t able to sell them, we’ll continue after I wake up.”
Nemi was so moved that her eyes welled up with tears. She would stand up to whoever talked badly about Amelia in the future.
“Okay. You should get some sleep.”
Amelia’s eyelids kept drooping; she was exhausted, so she fell asleep leaning against the side.

knees. It looked a bit frightening, but since the camera was still
on, Nemi didn’t say anything. She just admired Amelia even more.
Four hours later, Amelia woke up when she heard the driver and Nemi talking.
Nemi sounded worried. “Let her sleep a little more. It’s disgusting that they’re spreading rumors about us!”
The driver, a middle–aged man who had always driven for Hale Corporation, replied, “We should wake Ms. Summers, Nemi. If we wait any longer, all the customers will leave.”
“But she was up all night, let’s give her another hour of rest,”
Amelia woke up, even though they were talking quietly. She rubbed her temples, and her voice was hoarse. “What’s wrong?”
Nemi’s eyes lit up. “Amelia, you’re awake! It’s Milly, she joined the Agricultural Aid project and is also selling apples. Now everyone thinks you’re only here to chase after a man after she mentioned you in her live stream!
“Lots of people are canceling their orders, the system is about to crash, and the platform is putting pressure on us. What should we do? The platform will get reported, resulting in everyone getting dragged into this mess.”
Nemi was really worried. They had sold a lot of orders overnight, but by afternoon, she was about to cry, not only because she hadn’t sold anything, but a lot of orders were getting canceled.
Amelia took a sip of water, soothing her sore throat. This was precisely the kind of stunt that Milly would pull.
“Nemi, show me Milly’s livestream.”
Nemi pulled up Milly’s livestream.
Compared to Amelia’s shabby setup, Milly’s stream was well–decorated. She appeared to be a capable professional woman.
Milly might be manipulative, but she had some skills. At least her livestream looked the part.
The most important thing was that her prices were affordable. They only cost 50 cents per kg, so 10 kg of apples cost only five dollars.
Amelia was selling 10 kg for 9,90. In comparison, Milly’s offer was much more attractive.
Milly also “accidentally” brought up Amelia, saying that she had run away from home to prove herself and

So, people started to think that Amelia was only in Sienna Valley pretending to help out so she could get her fiancé back. Then she was raising prices on purpose to earn a commission!
Once those rumors started, things started spiraling out of control.

Nemi rubbed her eyes, which were red from crying. “The chat was full of insults at noon, so I ended the stream. I was so sad. Milly’s stream is very popular right now. She has more than 200,000 people watching her. I heard she has recently sold 10 thousand dollars‘ worth of apples.”
Amelia took a deep breath and patted Nemis’s shoulder. “Don’t worry, let’s start our livestream.”
Nemi shook her head. “No, you have no idea how vile the comments were.”
But Amelia started the stream herself, her tone calm. “It’s fine. I can use Milly’s name for attention too.”
Amelia’s stream had been popular since last night, so Milly took the opportunity to talk about Amelia on purpose to get people to watch. Amelia wasn’t going to let that go.
Nemi glanced at Amelia’s knees, worry in her eyes. “Amelia, you should take care of your inflamed wound
problem.” first. If you get an infection, it’ll be a bi
But Amelia was already smiling at the camera. As expected, the chat was full of insults.
“You’re awful! Fruit farmers work so hard, and you treat their produce like it’s for show. You should be ashamed. We placed so many orders last night for nothing.”
“Looks like the other streamer was right. You are here to sell apples just to attract a man.”
“She must be thrilled to hear everyone praise her looks. Let’s all report this stream and cancel our orders. If the cancellation rate is high enough, the platform will close this account down.”
“Disgusting. Just seeing your face makes me sick.”
Amelia ignored the hate and instead opened Milly’s stream to challenge her to an online battle.
The chat went silent for a moment, then exploded even more. Was Amelia going to confront Milly directly?
Milly hadn’t expected Amelia to challenge her. She didn’t want to accept it, but the viewers were asking if she was scared.
Milly would never be scared of Amelia, so she accepted the battle, and the two streams merged together.
The difference between them was obvious. Despite her flawless makeup, Milly couldn’t beat Amelia’s natural beauty.
