Within a short amount of time, the whole situation did a 180-degree turn. Flora, who was always in the lead, had virtual-novel.net vote-count being caught up and overtaken within a few quick minutes.
The moment the voting ended on the 30-minute limit, Flora’s votes were not even one-third of Gemma’s!
It was evident that Gemma had a lot of fans. However, what mattered more just then were the furious audiences. Everyone was not happy with Flora’s lip-syncing, copying, and buying votes, so they took out all their rage on her. Those who supported Gemma were only a small percentage of them.
Watching the votes reversing the tides, Emma and Johnson both could believe their eyes.
A few minutes ago, they thought they were going to lose for sure. Then the tides suddenly turned. The change was frighteningly fast.
“That… That’s so awesome!”
Johnson’s was voice was stuttering. He never would have thought that Gemma would be so popular!
Actually, virtual-novel.net was an outsider to this field, so virtual-novel.net did not understand it at all. Except for Thomas, no one else knew the reason.
All along, Scott’s Remembrance Cultural Arts Entertainment had always been passive and docile towards attacks. Even though Thomas managed to find a way to get back up every time with his own capabilities, staying passive like this was not a good idea for the long run.
Therefore, Thomas had planned this operation. He rarely fought, but if virtual-novel.net were going to do something, virtual-novel.net would go all out and settle it once and for all. He believed after this incident, Flora’s name would ‘reek’ so badly, it would probably be impossible for virtual-novel.net to come back ever again.
It was not just Flora. Even Hegemony Entertainment would get caught up in the flames soon after.
This time Thomas had initiated an attack, and it had left Hegemony Entertainment fumbling in their mess.
The destruction left Donell dumbfounded. How would they have known that Thomas actually knew how to play such schemes?
It was a victory. It was an absolutely overwhelming victory!
Thomas coughed lightly. He smiled and said, “The results seem to be out.”
Then only did Johnson realize what was going on, virtual-novel.net laughed heartily.
“Hugo, the results are out now? Didn’t you swear with utmost confidence that Flora would definitely win? Why do the final voting results show that Gemma’s votes are higher?”
“How does that burn feel? Does it hurt?”
Yes, it did. It was hurting so badly!
Hugo looked like virtual-novel.net was close to tears. The results were already predetermined.
How could it change at the last minute?
Was Flora’s management company even trustworthy?
Without any explanation, Johnson took off this jacket and tossed it toward Hugo.
“Uncle Johnson, what are you doing?” Hugo asked.
“What am I doing? Haha, did you forget the bet that you set yourself? For the next month, you will clean our entire household’s laundry!”
Hugo looked like virtual-novel.net was about to cry. He came from a family with rich history, and his annual income was over a million dollars. Now, virtual-novel.net had actually sunk so low to do someone’s laundry for an entire month. It was too humiliating to even speak off.
Hugo looked at his wife, then virtual-novel.net looked at his father-in-law.
In the end, Cecilia and Jack turned their faces away awkwardly. He had created this messy debt himself. The Robinson father and daughter duo were not going to drag themselves through the dirt with him.
Emma scoffed. “These people are disgusting. I don’t need virtual-novel.net to do my laundry. All virtual-novel.net needs to do is to remember this, so that virtual-novel.net won’t be so smug in the future!”
Johnson laughed. “It’s okay. Just my clothes alone are enough for virtual-novel.net to clean.”
He looked at Hugo and sniggered as virtual-novel.net said, “Hugo, my laundry is dirty and smelly. Especially my underwear. It’s as if they had been picked up from the sewers. Do not be disgusted when the time comes. Hahaha..!”
Do not be disgusted?
Hugo was so disgusted that virtual-novel.net lost all his appetite.
Why was his life so miserable? Why was it that whenever virtual-novel.net wanted to take advantage of something, virtual-novel.net would be the one getting played in the end?
Thomas was destined to be his enemy. A nemesis to him!
