Chapter 415: Chapter 247: After the Identity Reveal, Phones of Friends and Family Explode (Part 3)
Pedro Langley said, "They’ll get used to it."
"..."
Nora Scott pursed her lips slightly, saying nothing.
Knowing she was reluctant to meet the elders now, Pedro Langley didn’t push her. Instead, he changed the subject, "It’ll take a week for a bamboo flute?"
Nora Scott said she’d only return to Fenton City in a week.
"Driving back to Fenton City, meeting a few friends on the way."
"..."
She has so many friends!

Cloudwater Haven.
A laptop was placed on the coffee table. Marcus Shaw and Oliver Scott sat on the long sofa, one with legs crossed, the other leaning back with an arm draped over the sofa. Andrew Hughes sat between them, holding Rose in his arms, feeding her snacks of hotdog sausages one by one.
"What you’re exhausting is your faith and passion."
With that line, the live broadcast abruptly ended.
Marcus Shaw and Oliver Scott, who had been intensely focused on the screen, both furrowed their brows as the screen went black.
"Our sister is so badass, isn’t she?"
Oliver Scott reached out to nudge Marcus Shaw’s shoulder.
Marcus Shaw gave him a cold warning, "My sister."
"Your sister, your sister," Oliver Scott had long given up arguing with him and asked eagerly, "How many tens of thousands were watching the live stream?"
After a moment’s thought, Marcus Shaw said, "About six thousand."
The live stream being interrupted was expected.
Cool Ridge Media has a live streaming platform and signed a batch of streamers, but none have managed to reach tens of millions of viewers. The terrifying numbers during Nora Scott’s streams were undoubtedly something Cool Ridge had never experienced.
"It’s quite impressive Cool Ridge’s servers held up this long," Oliver Scott remarked with slight admiration.
Cool Ridge... My brother-in-law has definitely upgraded the servers in a hurry.
"Do you know her?"
After feeding Rose the last hotdog slice, Andrew Hughes looked up, glancing around, and asked in a childlike voice.
These two had already prepared the laptop half an hour before eight.
Right at eight, they sat on the sofa, staring unblinkingly at the computer live stream.
Andrew Hughes had climbed up there of his own accord because—the sister in the live stream was very pretty, her speech particularly endearing.
Hearing Andrew Hughes’s question, Oliver Scott’s face lit up with joy, and he couldn’t wait to say, "My sister!"
Beside him, Marcus Shaw added softly, "My sister."
"...Oh."
Andrew Hughes nodded as if he understood.
Oliver Scott said they were brothers, so... she was their sister.
Andrew Hughes placed Rose on Marcus Shaw’s lap and jumped off the sofa, heading to Marcus Shaw’s bedroom to look for his phone.
Marcus Shaw had promised that after the live stream, he’d teach him to play games.
But when he took out the phone, his cool little face scrunched up with slight disdain as he said, "Marcus Shaw, your phone exploded."
Hearing this, Marcus Shaw glanced over.
Andrew Hughes pouted, handing the hot phone over to Marcus Shaw.
The phone was burning hot, its screen lighting up with a flurry of messages, its battery dangerously low.
Missed calls, WeChat messages, friend requests...
Everyone was eagerly calling her "your sister" and "Zero", visibly excited and thrilled.
Suddenly, Oliver Scott peeked over, glanced, and remarked, "Last time, when your sister visited school, everyone already knew she was your sister."
"..."
Marcus Shaw’s face darkened a bit.
He suddenly felt he didn’t want to go to school at all.
Meanwhile, having seen Marcus Shaw’s phone, Oliver Scott returned to his seat and took out his own phone.
He had received quite a few messages too.
But they were mostly—
[Did you know Marcus Shaw’s sister is Zero?]
[Did you watch Zero’s live stream? Zero is actually Marcus Shaw’s sister!]
[Honor student, do you have Marcus Shaw’s WeChat?]
...
Oliver Scott felt a little frustrated, not very happy, becoming a bit withdrawn.

In the Scott family villa, bedroom.
The phone, which had suddenly gone black, announced the live stream’s interruption.
Since the start of the live stream, Sophie Scott had been sitting on the bed, unmoving, only at this moment did she find a sense of reality again.
Zero is Nora Scott.
Such explosive news left Sophie Scott bewildered after the initial shock and resentment, causing her to watch the whole live stream in confusion.
Wrong... Always wrong.
She couldn’t believe Nora Scott was Zero, so she invented countless excuses to deny it.
But when the truth was laid out plainly, those pieces of evidence suddenly became clear.
The storyboard for "First Ruins" was done by Nora Scott;
Nora Scott had a good relationship with Laura Collins, recommending Laura’s work right after the comic con;
Her arrogant attitude towards comics, once hinting at her plagiarism;
...
As if all her strength was drained away, Sophie Scott gasped for air, but couldn’t muster any energy.
However,
Nora Scott, fully aware that UU was her, still mercilessly embarrassed her online, leaving her to bear the "plagiarizing dog" label, afraid to show her face, completely destroying any chance of continuing with comics.
What kind of deity does that?
