Convenience Store Loser Ends a Livestream Queen Chapter 10
Three months later, Joanna's account disappeared from the internet. It wasn't the platforms that banned her—she had deleted it herself.Before she did, she posted one final video in which she spoke to the camera for 20 minutes. There were no beauty filters, no edits, no clickbait title, and it was still the same white wall behind her.She admitted that for the past two years, she'd paraded around under the banner of "exposing the working-class reality", but what she'd really been doing was something much simpler and much uglier—exploiting working people's suffering for content and views.The delivery driver's desperation, the sanitation worker's silence, and the convenience store clerk who made 1,800 dollars a month—they weren't just content. They were real human beings with dignity.She'd put herself in the position of a judge and used other people's pain to build her own following. But she had never really been judging the "failures". She'd been judging the thing inside herself

A week later, Joanna showed up outside the convenience store. This time, there were no cameras, no assistants, and no ring lights.She wore a faded, washed-out hoodie and sweatpants. She had minimal makeup on, and dark circles bruised the skin beneath her eyes. Her hair was pulled back into a messy low ponytail, with a few stray strands sticking to her forehead.She stood outside the glass door, looking in.George was stocking shelves behind the register. When he looked up and saw her, his hand holding the scanner froze in midair. He held her gaze through the glass for a few seconds before putting the scanner down. Then he walked over to the door, pushed it open halfway, and planted himself in the doorway."What do you want?""I'm looking for Louis.""He doesn't work at this store anymore.""Where did he go?""I don't know," George answered, his voice as hard as ice.He had been with Nexus Mart for eight years, working his way up from an ordinary store clerk to a manager

After Joanna posted her apology video, the public backlash didn't die down. In fact, it got even worse.That was because people started digging deeper into her past.An anonymous user went through all her "Street Unfiltered" videos from the last two years, made a compilation, and uploaded it online.It was a long video, running 43 minutes, and every segment followed the same formula.In one of the most recent clips, she stopped a middle-aged delivery driver working late at night. The man hadn't even taken off his helmet, and his face was drenched in sweat.Joanna asked him, "You're still delivering food at your age? Is this just it for the rest of your life?"The man stood helplessly in front of the camera and explained that he had two children to support and a mortgage to pay off."Oh," she simply replied. "So life basically crushed you, huh?"The chat exploded with laughter.Going a little further back, there was one where she stopped a sanitation worker who was sweeping the

Over the next 48 hours, Joanna did three things.The first thing she did was delete the videos. She took down the replays from both nights' live streams and wiped every clip involving me. She even deleted that smug "VIP guest" teaser she'd posted.After deleting everything, she refreshed the page, only to find that clips of the video had already been reposted across at least 30 platforms.For every clip she deleted, ten more appeared. With no choice left, she reached out to the platforms to file copyright infringement complaints.The customer service responses were very polite."Please provide proof that you are the rights holder for this content."She stared at the message for a long time. The person featured in those videos was me, not her. What right did she have to file a complaint?The second thing she did was post an apology video. There was no team, no , and no beauty filters. She set up her phone herself and sat in front of the white wall in her office.She was bare-fac

After Joanna ended the live stream, she didn't go back to the agency. She kicked Jessica out of the car and drove off by herself.Jessica later told me that Joanna had made two phone calls from the car.The first was to Tim Talwalker, the owner of the MCN that managed her channel.She'd barely managed to say "Tim, something happened" when he started yelling."Are you out of your damn mind? Do you know who he is? He's the sole heir to Nexus Group! They have four thousand stores nationwide!""I thought he was just a store clerk—""You thought? You thought! You've been doing street interviews for two years, and you tell me you don't know there are certain people you just can't mess with? I just got three fucking calls! Two were from brands wanting to terminate their contracts with you, and the other was the platform asking if we wanted to take your account down ourselves!""Tim, could you please help me—""Help you? How am I supposed to help you? You want me to go to Nexus Group's

Joanna didn't answer me. Her hand holding the selfie stick was trembling, and her knuckles had gone white.The comments weren't just scrolling past anymore. The live chat was blowing up. 4.3 million people were watching simultaneously.Some were looking up the phone, and others were searching "Nexus Group", while another group had screenshotted my screen and were zooming in on the text.Then, a comment appeared.[Nexus Group has four thousand convenience stores nationwide, with ten billion dollars in revenue last year.]Immediately, a second followed.[He said he's initiating legal proceedings.]Then a third.[He said, "For infringing upon my rights and those of my mother."]And another.[He's not just a store clerk? Who on earth is he?]In under 30 seconds, the chat went from a wall of "unworthy" to a screen flooded with question marks."You…" Joanna finally spoke, her voice airy and weak. "Who on earth are you?"I ignored her. I helped Mom to her feet, and we walked out
