Yatesy isn’t that just a nickname for Yates? Why is he denying it?
Though puzzled, Cordelia didn’t pry further. She simply nodded in agreement, “Yeah”
Once the game loaded, it was time to pick heroes. The others hesitated to make a move, waiting for Everard to choose first. That’s when Cordelia spoke up, “You can play a support role, don’t worry, just stick with me and you’ll be fine.”
potential?
The crowd was left scratching their heads

. How could this girl seem so clueless about her own boyfriend’s true pote
And in the game, Calvert and Floyd were also stunned.
Floyd chuckled. “Lia, are you seriously making Everard play support?”
Before he could continue, Yates snapped, “What’s wrong with him playing support?”
Floyd was speechless.
Everard ignored their quarrel, selected a support character, and obediently said, “Okay”
The crowd went silent.
In the end, Cordelia chose the jungler role, Calvert went top lane, and Yates confidently picked the AD carry for bot lane. Cordelia learned her jungling from none other than Jungler himself, after all the time they’d spent playing together. As she played, she directed Everard, Support, go ward the bush.”
“Okay.”
Once a dominating force in the game, X now seemed like a dutiful spouse, obediently following orders, much to everyone’s Surprise!
Jungler, on the other hand, had his hands full.
When the support changed, facing such a plethora of formidable opponents, he realized just how skilled Cordelia’s support play
was.
Moreover, Cordelia’s jungling skill was impressively similar to his, yet with even more finesse and flair!
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, that it was indeed her playing, they never would have believed it!
Noticing the tide turning against them, Jungler decisively called out a strategy. Target the bot lane, don’t let him snowball us!”
“Got it.”
The team charged towards Yates‘ bot lane. With a teleport, four players arrived, ready to dive the turret and take him down! Floyd, in the mid lane, instinctively rushed to help, but before he got close, he heard Yates roar in the game, “Back off, I don’t need your help.”
Floyd had to stop at a distance, silently watching Yates take on a 1v4. After taking one down, Yates was also slain.
Cordelia and Everard said nothing, but Calvert from top lane couldn’t help commenting. “Man, you got beef with Floyd? With his help, you could’ve lived.”
Hearing this, Yates scoffed, “I don’t know him. Don’t lump me in with him.”
Floyd had been chatty, going back and forth with Calvert, but now he fell silent, no longer speaking.
Afterwards, the enemy continued to focus on Yates. Floyd repeatedly tried to assist and was rebuffed each time. Yates shouldered the pressure, and with so many experts on their side, they naturally won the game.
As the in–game announcement of “Victory” sounded, Yates quickly logged off.
Through Cordelia’s game interface, Floyd’s rich voice came through, “Yatesy, I…”
“Lia, I’ve got to go. If you need anything, just holler for the waiter.”
Yates cut him off, got up, and walked out. Pausing at the door, he added, “This round’s on the house” With a “Bang!” Yates closed the door behind him and left.

Chapter 195
in the game, Calvert kept teasing, “Floyd, what did you do to the kid that he’s got it in for you like this?”
Floyd sighed. “You don’t understand. It’s a classic case of love and hate ”
Without further explanation, he simply said, “Lia, if we’re not gaming, fim gonna log off Call me if you need to rank up. I’m at your beck and call
With those words, Floyd also signed off.
Cordelia put down her phone, lifted her head, and looked at Jungler and Sweetheart, “Now, don’t you two owe me an apology?”
At those words, Sweetheart clenched her lips tight. She glanced at her own streaming room,
In the chat, people were already educating each other.
–“Let me enlighten you. I just checked out Greenmeadow International School. It’s an elite institution with annual tuition fees of $300,000, meant for kids from noble and wealthy families So, Learner’s family is at least minor aristocracy!”
–“Learner, real name Cordelia, is not just great at games, but also an amazing planist. When she quest–starred as Bland, there was this one–take scene that was just so cool!”
–“Ah, I don’t care much about the gaming community, I’m only interested in the fact that X and the Demon King were just gaming with Learner, and that the Demon King said he’s available for duo– ranking anytime! Can you believe that’s the same unapproachable Demon King we know?”
–“Why do I suddenly feel like it’s an honor for Jungler to rank up with her? Keep in mind, the Demon King himself is waiting in line for a duo!”
–“You should really watch the videos of Jungler and Learner’s duo games. Her support skills are seriously top–notch!”
The crowd went back and forth, quickly elevating Cordelia to a celestial status, and no one spoke of Sweetheart being hard done by anymore.
Sweetheart watched, fuming. She couldn’t swallow her pride, much less apologize.
Just as she was about to retort, Jungler suddenly spoke up, “Tm sorry”
Sweetheart was stunned.
Jungler didn’t mince words, “A bet’s a bet, and I lost this game fair and square?”
He glanced at Sweetheart’s phone, addressing the audience with a raw honesty, “I’ve never been seduced by Learner; it was me who wanted to date her. When she wouldn’t send pictures, I assumed she must be unattractive, so I ended up with Sweetheart Instead. There’s no ‘other woman‘ drama, and there was no deception for gaming ranks. From this moment on, any hit list Sweetheart has announced is hereby retracted!”
Sweetheart, upon hearing these words, felt like her world was crumbling.
The chat erupted in mockery.
“You thought you had a catch with that Jungler, but Learner’s got someone else, a boyfriend no less, and he’s a total hunk! She doesn’t give two hoots about your Jungler, Sweetheart.” From NôvelDrama.Org.
–“Reflecting now, Sweetheart is the real piece of work.”
–“Can I just say, am I the only one super curious about what’s going on between that ADC in the game and Demon King? There seems to be more drama!”
A flush of anger turned Sweetheart’s cheeks scarlet, her hands trembling with rage.
Cordelia, seeing the situation resolved, had nothing more to add. She stood up and walked out, her exit as smooth and decisive
as a clean break.
Suddenly, Sweetheart found her voice, “Learner.”
Cordelia paused, looking back to see Sweetheart, malice laced with a veneer of righteousness, saying, “Just a sisterly reminder, you’re still in high school. School should be your priority. Aren’t SATs coming up? Juggling acting and gaming seems a bit irresponsible, don’t you think?”
