Semua Bab Yearning for Her Return : Bab 741 - Bab 750

"Should I go home?" Carissa wondered as she balled her fists, which were hidden in her long sleeves. She was hesitant. On the one hand, she felt conflicted after learning from Gina that her parents watched her competitions. It made her want to go home at once and confront her parents. She wanted their approval.On the other hand, Carissa felt terrified. She feared her parents would react coldly toward her like always. She was worried that Gina had only said those things out of politeness and to flatter her since they were neighbors.Yet, it had already been two, almost three years since she went home.Carissa also seldom answered their calls.Deep down, she wanted to go and see them.Carissa pursed her lips, inhaled deeply, and snapped out of her thoughts. Then, she looked at Rebecca to say, "Thanks, Rebecca, but it's too late. My parents usually sleep around this time. It'll be inconvenient if I go home now. I'll visit tomorrow instead. Can I hitch a ride back to the hotel with

Rebecca lost interest after looking at it for a while.Under the comments, there were several pages and accounts piping up about the competition. They clarified that CalX Esports Club was very strong overall and was always in first place during the regular season events. The contestant in the video just wasn't in good condition that day, and he usually did very well in the regular season. They explained that they had already done their best in the competition with Flashfocus Esports Club, and there was no need for them to accept money and rig the competition. It was just a pity that no one was reading those accounts. In addition, the issue had died down, and the top comments were all sarcastic. The comments trying to clarify would just be seen as trying to whitewash and would be buried quickly. They would be labeled as those who were accepting money or be humiliated as saying they were just the club's bitches. Rebecca scanned a few comments and suddenly felt that there was n

Everyone ate lunch very quickly. The reason was simple. There were still many things that they had to take care of. The storm of public opinion did not just involve one player, it also affected both clubs and the corporations behind them. Time would not wait for them, and they had to make use of every second they had. Even Rebecca, who had nothing to do, finished lunch at the same time as they did. But she didn't follow them. Rebecca knew that there wasn't much that she could help with, and if she went with them then Alex and Caleb might have to spend time taking care of her. After they ate, she ambled over to the buffet area to get some fruits and told them that she had plans for the afternoon. She told them not to worry about her. Alex did not have any objections about this. After all, they'd already let Rebecca go from one city to another. She was a grown-up, and it wasn't as if she would get lost. Only Caleb was still a little worried. He thought about the pre

"Is it that bad?"At that moment, the players from both clubs were gathered in the administrative corridor. There were a lot of people, but it was a big space. Everyone huddled together in groups, and their voices carried over the crowd. The young player approached the teammate who had spoken earlier and began listening keenly. "This kind of thing won't have anything to do with us. We're just trying to compete well, and we haven't done anything. “Besides, yesterday's competition was pretty exciting. CalX club was as strong as they always are in season, and how could they have rigged the match? There's no reason for them to do that.""Yeah, and the CalX team hasn't won the championship for years. If they really wanted one, then they should have spent the money before AlmightyAlex retired. Think about it. He peaked when he debuted. If he went out in glory with a World Championship before he retired, wouldn't he become the dream esports athlete of tens of thousands of girls? He'd al

His cold words plunged the hall into a heavy silence. The Flashfocus Club members looked at each other, unsure if it would be unethical of them to enjoy the show. They were the ones who had been accused of taking money and rigging the match, but they hadn't gotten emotional about it. Now it seemed that the other side had started arguing instead. Was it because … their people had accepted money, and then … won?What was all this about?They didn't dare to speak either and could only look at each other and watch in silence. On the other hand, the CalX club was also confused. The atmosphere had been pretty good due to the playful bickering between Philip and Alexia.They'd been teasing each other about who would buy dinner and what they would have. After all, winning the competition and thinking about everyone getting a large sum of prize money made them all happy. Even if that silly online issue had occurred, they were frank about not having done it. They had won the mat
