Chapter 210
True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules
As the first comment zipped across the livestream, it was like a drop of water hitting a scorching hot skillet, and the chat exploded into a frenzy.
âWhat was that? Is it some new kind of special effect? Bagot, you said there was no script.*
âScript? What script? Who needs a script with effects like that?â
âHoly cow⦠is this for real? My dear Newton, was I wrong all along?â
âIf Newton saw this, heâd be rolling in his grave.â
âCan someone confirm that was Winnieâs voice, right? And that she was the one who threw that charm?.â
âWinnie? That was an angel.â
âEven if the Almighty himself showed up, that voice would still belong to Winnie.â
âMom, Iâve seen an angel.â
âWinnieâs got magic powers. Iâm not even joking.â
âSo, do I have to believe in this mysticism now? I believe, okay, I believe.â
âHoly smokes, I declare that the mystical energies have returned.â
âThe mystical energies are back, and Iâve waited for this day for so long.â
âBagot, are we going to learn how to fly next?â
The chat was scrolling so fast as the audience and the crew tried to recover from the shock. The first officer on the scene went straight to check on Lacyâs mother.
Seeing that she was miraculously unharmed, he was shocked but didnât forget to call for an ambulance.
Soon after, the viewerâs dad rushed down with Lacy in his arms.
Lacy was visibly shaken, and now his heart condition was acting up.
The crew didnât waste any time and signaled the audience member with Lacy to get into their van.
They all headed to the nearest hospital with Winnie accompanying them in the vehicle.
On the way, when the cameras werenât looking, Winnie slipped a thin, almost transparent amulet into Lacyâs shirt. Lacy who was turning blue and struggling to breathe, seemed to find relief almost instantly.
The nearby viewer caught sight of the quick gesture, and though the camera missed it, 17.30 she was sitting right across and had seen Winnieâs stealthy move.
Almost instinctively, she understood that Winnie was saving Lacy.
Her eyes welled up with tears. She had only sent a message to Winnie, hoping against hope, but not only had Winnie seen it, but she had also come herself to help.
And Winnieâs timing couldnât have been more perfect, and she had saved her auntâs life and now her cousinâs.
Overwhelmed with gratitude, she silently vowed to be a lifelong fan of Winnie.
Winnie, who had been observing Lacyâs complexion, seemed to feel something and looked up. Had she just felt a surge of belief?
But how could that be?
Before she could contemplate further, the vehicle pulled up to the hospital, and the waiting doctors quickly took the child away.
Soon, Lacyâs mother was also brought in by police after collapsing, and after handing everyone over to the doctors, the officers began making statements about the dayâs events. The perpetrator, Amanda, was already in custody at the police station.
Winnie, as an indirect participant, was supposed to give a statement too, but she had already messaged Michel about the âaccident,â leaving the official explanations to him.
While the crew and Winnie were busy with the case, the internet was in uproar.
The crew had just arrived at the complex when the cameraman, following Winnie, inadvertently captured the falling figure of the mother but missed the shot of Winnie.
So the viewers couldnât confirm if the magic that saved the falling mother was Winnieâs doing.
That was until a clip from Mervinâs camera angle surfaced.
Though the video focused on Mervinâs reaction, it also included Winnie, who was seen throwing a charm and murmuring an incantation.
Some viewers even stitched together both angles, making it clear for all that mysticism had been unveiled in broad daylight.
Watching the online madness and the relentless queries about Winnie in the chat, Bagot knew the live interaction couldnât continue.
âTodayâs Ghostly Guidance community callâout has come to an unexpected close due to some extraordinary circumstances. We thank you all for your support and interest in Ghostly Guidance.â
With that, the stream abruptly ended, leaving the audience in disbelief, almost ready to overrun Ghostly Guidanceâs Twitter with their comments.
12:39 Bagot had no choice, and without an official statement, they wouldnât respond either.
Winnie wasnât surprised by Bagotâs decision and prepared to head back to Emerald Bay. But she was stopped by Mervin.
They stepped aside, and after a long, hard look, Mervin finally asked, âWhatâs your relation to Master Winner?â
Winnie was taken aback.
Mervin continued, âYour Breeze Charm comes from the lineage of the Whispering Wind Charm, a creation of Master Winner. Iâve heard my mentor mention it once. That charm is unique to Master Winner, and nobody else can produce it. You must know the great master if you carry such a charm, right?â
Mervin was usually poised and serious, so his hopeful gaze was rare. Winnie wasnât sure how to explain without revealing too much.
It felt like her cover was being blown from all sides.
She had heard similar questions before. She didnât want to hide her identity, but she also didnât want any trouble that might come with exposure.
Hobson was a walking invitation for trouble, but Mervin seemed much more reliable.
The thought struck Winnie like a flash of lightning. Without a momentâs hesitation, she dug into her purse and pulled out a tiny square of parchment and a miniature pen filled with crimson ink. Resting the parchment on her palm, she crafted a charm before Mervinâs widened eyes, her hand moving with practiced ease. In mere seconds, a mini Breeze Charm took shape.
Mervin watched, transfixed, as his pupils dilated and then contracted, following each precise stroke of Winnieâs pen. He was utterly spellbound until she finally handed him the completed charm.
âSee for yourself,â Winnie said, a playful twinkle in her eye, âIâm what you might call a charm crafter, and yes, Iâm the one youâve been looking for, Master Winner.â
Mervin stood there, dumbfounded.
