Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 244

“Come on, come on, leave a comment, leave a comment in the official Twitter!” One of the girls said excitedly while taking photos of Daphne and pulling another girl

along.

Looking at the two excited girls, Daphne glanced at Mrs. Flores and then looked at them, “What official Twitter?”

Both girls didn’t pay attention to her question and continued their excited discussion on their phones.

From their sporadic conversation, it appeared they were discussing a variety show called Seasons of Love, which seemed to be a treat for fans.

The show was pretty hot at the moment and had already aired three seasons, all of which were well received.

The last season featured actress Katie and international male model Victor, both of whom had a large fan base. One was a film queen, the other an internationally renowned model, with three big stars each season.

The fan Katie picked was a male fan who later served as Katie’s assistant for a week. The show aired many backstage hardships of celebrities, which gained Katie a lot of fans.

Victor’s fan got to shoot a magazine spread and cover with him, which ignited Victor’s popularity in the entertainment industry as well.

He even made a film with Mr. Farrell later, which became a hit.

Daphne had even interviewed guests from Seasons of Love!

Listening to the girls’ heated discussion, Daphne figured that they recognized her because she had interviewed guests from Seasons of Love.

So she didn’t pay much attention to them and opened Twitter.

The first trending topic she saw was Lionel confirming his participation in the third season of Seasons of Love. Daphne had a bad feeling about this and couldn’t help but click on the trending topic.

The official Twitter of Seasons of Love read, “The third season of Seasons of Love will adopt a new mode, adding a ‘crossing mountains and seas for you’ segment. The show will send a lucky fan to a famous tourist spot as a surprise. In order to capture the true details, the show will be broadcast live. Lionel has confirmed to participate in the third season of Seasons of Love as the first star to set off. Who will be the lucky fan? Please stay tuned to our Twitter account. Tomorrow morning at 10 o’clock, Mr. Lionel will meet you live.”

The tweet was sent yesterday afternoon. That is to say, Lionel’s live broadcast would start at 10 o’clock this morning.

Daphne’s bad feeling grew stronger. She turned to look at Mrs. Flores, who was showing off her love with Alaric, shook her head helplessly, and opened the live link. Just as she saw Lionel’s face, the video froze.

“Mom, do you need to change your phone? Why did it freeze?” Daphne glanced at Mrs. Flores.

Mrs. Flores snatched her phone, checked it from front to back, and then the phone vibrated.

She slapped Daphne on the head, “My phone got cut off!!”

Daphne was speechless.

“Dad… can you lend me your phone?” Daphne asked Alaric with a smile.

Alaric grinned, “My phone got cut off too. Why don’t you turn on your own phone? Are you still afraid that Lionel will come looking for you? If he dares to come, I’ll make sure to give him some trouble!” Alaric said.

To pacify Alaric, Daphne quickly calmed him down, “I didn’t think it was necessary to turn it on, so I forgot to charge it after turning it off last night…”

“The driver just told me that we’ll be in Cuzco in about ten minutes. We can charge the phones at a hotel then.” Mrs. Flores said.

Daphne nodded at Mrs. Flores and smiled, “It’s okay, I’ll ask the girls in front for help.”

With that, Daphne leaned over the seat to the two excited girls and said with a smile, “Are you guys watching the live broadcast of Seasons of Love?”

“Yes!” The girls held their phones.

With a chuckle, Daphne looked at them and said, “Can I watch it with you?”

“Sure, can you take a picture with us?” The girl asked.

Daphne happily agreed, not expecting that she would have such a day.

She squeezed into the middle of the two girls, let them take a selfie, and then couldn’t wait to stare at the phone in the girl’s hand.

Instead of playing the video, the girl was looking at the photo she had just taken and asked Daphne, “Ma’am, are you really friends with Mr. Lionel?”

The interview had already been released, so Daphne could only nod.

“Oh my god, is Mr. Lionel even more handsome in person than on TV?”

With her eyes glued to the girl’s phone, Daphne asked, “Aren’t you watching the live broadcast anymore?”

The girl finally came back to her senses and quickly opened the live video.

As soon as Daphne saw it, her eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. Lionel was sitting in a car,

He was wearing a black suit, a pure white shirt, no tie, leaning back in his seat, casual and lázy.

The camera panned up from below, with comments from the onlooking crowd on the side, all praising Mr. Lionel’s appearance, with countless people calling him “dear” keeping cropping up.

There were also people guessing who the lucky fan could be, who had the honor.

Holding his phone towards the camera, Lionel looked at his fans and smirked.

He shook his phone in his hand, “I’ve got the phone number of the lucky fan, but it seems that this fan’s phone is off!”

Daphne’s bad feeling grew stronger. She subconsciously covered her phone in her pocket, then took the girl’s phone and left a comment asking Lionel, “Are you waiting for that fan now?”

Lionel was just reading comments when he saw Daphne’s question. Surprisingly, he was in a great mood and replied, “I’m currently at the Cuzco bus station, waiting for a bus from Machu Picchu. Apparently, a fan who wants to meet me is on that bus. I have no idea who this lovely fan is, but my crew has already set up the cameras at the bus station. In a few minutes, I’ll be getting off. Are you guys curious about who it is?”

“My god!” Daphne jumped up from her seat, “Stop the bus, I need to get off. Sir, stop the bus!!”

“You scared me!” Edda pulled Daphne back to her seat, “Buckle up right now!”

“My kid’s about to be kidnapped!” Daphne quickly headed towards the driver.

Edda’s heart almost burst out, “You child, what are you doing in the car? Be careful with your stomach…”

Mid-sentence, Edda realized there were Lionel’s fans on the bus, so she quickly shut up, got up, and grabbed Daphne.

Daphne pleaded with the driver, “Sir, can you please stop the bus?”

“That’s not possible, we’re already in a controlled zone, we’d get fined for stopping here.” The driver said.

“How much is the fine? I’ll pay it!” Daphne looked at the driver with pitiful eyes.

The driver shook his head, “No can do, this life is not a joke, not to mention points will be deducted for stopping randomly. It’s not just about money. Go back to your seat and buckle up.”

Mrs. Flores looked at Daphne, puzzled, “Why are you in such a hurry all of a sudden, what’s wrong?”

With no other choice, Daphne whispered into Mrs. Flores’ ear, “Lionel’s at the Cuzco bus station. If we run into him, what am I going to do…”

She mumbled, “I haven’t figured out what to do yet…”

“How did he know you were going to the Cuzco bus station?”

“He’s filming a show.” Daphne felt something was off. No media had leaked Lionel was joining Seasons of Love, but he did, and coincidentally a fan was at the Cuzco bus station. Could this get any more

suspicious?

Mrs. Flores said, “Let him film his show, you do your thing, what are you afraid of? I don’t believe he’d dare to mess with you again! If he dares to, your father and I won’t let him off!”

With that, Mrs. Flores pulled Daphne back to their seats, then turned to Alaric and said, “Lionel’s filming at the Cuzco bus station. If he doesn’t provoke us, you stay calm. But if he dares to mess with our daughter, you punch him!”

Daphne shrank back, her dad was a judo coach after all. It would be unimaginable if he really punched Lionel.

Daphne tugged at Alaric’s sleeve, “Dad… I think we should keep a low profile. After all, he’s filming a show. As long as we sneak away, it’s fine. Celebrities’ faces are insured, we can’t afford to pay. Please don’t lose your temper, don’t get physical…”

“Don’t worry, I won’t hit his face!” Alaric reassured his daughter by patting her face.

Daphne was speechless.

She quickly took out a scarf from her bag, wrapped it around her face, put on a mask and sunglasses, then asked Mrs. Flores, “You can’t recognize me now, right?”

“You look hideous!”

Daphne took out two hats, put them on Mrs. Flores and Alaric’s heads.

The bus came to a smooth stop, Daphne repeatedly told Alaric, “Dad, they’ll definitely be at the bus station entrance. We need to keep a low profile and just miss them. Don’t lose your temper…”

Before Daphne could finish, the driver’s voice came from the front, “We’ve arrived at the final stop, please get off!”NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
