True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 164
Winnie glanced back at the young man following not too far behind. His attempts
to appease his girlfriend were obvious offering her water, handing her a tissue.
But after being deliberately ignored twice, his patience seemed to wear thin.
Resigned, he lagged behind, eventually mingling with Mae's group.
Despite his irritation, he struck up a conversation with the bed and breakfast
owner, his tone casual. “I've watched your stream online; you must've walked this
trail loads of times, huh?”
The boy had been drawn to the B&B because of the owner’s streams. Carter, the
host, was no stranger to such talks. His expressions seemed rehearsed from
countless similar interactions. “Yeah, my late wife and I were all about hiking
adventures. We were thrilled when we stumbled upon this route. Sometimes, I
trek it again to reminisce. Eventually, I figured why not share it live? Never
imagined it would catch on like it did,” Carter said, a wistful note in his voice that
never failed to garner sympathy from his online audience.
The young man didn’t miss a beat. “You really loved your wife.”
He glanced at his girlfriend, his voice laced with frustration. “My girlfriend always
wanted that kind of love.”
Faithfulness, being one of a kind.
How many men these days are as devoted as Carter? Most move on quickly
after their spouse
passes away.
He knew what bothered his girlfriend, but he found her pettiness exasperating. It
was one thing. in private, but in front of a camera? Couldn't she hide it a bit?
The more he dwelled on it, the more he tallied his girlfriend's flaws — the more
she seemed to pale in comparison to Carter's perfect wife.
Lost in thought, he didn’t notice Winnie had stopped and turned to look at him.
Kane followed her gaze, puzzled. “Did you notice something again?”
Kane couldn't fathom Winnie taking an interest in someone else’s boyfriend. Her
analytical gaze reminded him of the wife she had ominously marked earlier.
The young girl beside them was equally curious. Winnie, studying the scene, said
flatly, “His resentment has grown.”
The girl was stunned. Resentment? Kane was equally confused. What
resentment?
The live stream audience was just as baffled.
“Resentment? Is there a ghost?”
“Resentment on the guy?”
Chapter 164
“Suddenly talking about this in broad daylight? Ghosts?”
“Not ghosts! Resentment! Just like what Mervin said!"
“What does this have to do with Mervin?”
“I was in Mervin's stream earlier, and right when he entered the area, he
mentioned a sense of resentment. This could be why couples come here and
break up!”
“Oh man, if both say it's true, then it's got to be!”
“Or maybe it's just part of the show's script?”
“No way, right? No one believes there's a script for this, right?”
“Who would write a script like that? Bring in the police and serial killers? Is the
writer a god?”
“Rather than the writer, I'd say our Winnie is the divine one!”
Meanwhile, the boyfriend noticed Winnie's pause and asked, “What's up?”
“Were you just talking about me? Saying nasty things behind my back?” His
girlfriend asked, her tone accusatory. She didn't understand the talk of
resentment, but her instinct told her it was about her boyfriend. His growing
resentment that meant he was blaming her?
The boyfriend frowned at her tone. “Who's talking about you? Can't you keep
your imagination in check? When have I said anything bad about you?"
Her boyfriend's harsh words took her aback, and she retorted, “Why are you
yelling at me? If you've got a problem with me, just say it!"
-You're crazy! Did I yell at you?"
Now the boyfriend was thoroughly annoyed, his patience worn thin by her
constant sulking. “You've been giving me the cold shoulder since we started this
trip. You are being such a baby. I'm fed up with it!”
With that, her eyes reddened instantly. “You're fed up with me? I haven't even
complained about you, and now you're disgusted with me? Don't you know what
you did wrong?!”
“Be reasonable! What did I do wrong now? You act like a princess every day; do I
have to keep pampering you?”
“Look at yourself, thinking you're so charming. Who cares about you?”
Their argument escalated quickly, in full view of the production crew. The viewers
were stunned by the sudden fight.
“What just happened? Why the conflict?”
“I'm confused, but I think they're heading for a breakup.”
“I've never been in a relationship, can someone experienced tell me if this is
normal?”
“From experience, couples argue like this, it's all normal.”

“It's scary. I'm getting cold feet about relationships.”
“I've been in a relationship, and argued, but this seems off.”
“Did they forget they're live? If it were me, I'd be embarrassed to argue like this
on air.”
“Their argument has me speechless.”
Suddenly, the escalating quarrel prompted some of the guests to belatedly try to
mediate.
They were here to uncover the secret behind the B&B curse, not to witness a
breakup.
