"Don't you have any other suggestions?" Melly asked Ruby.
The latter thought but it seemed there was no such thing as a good suggestion.
She finally shook her head. "That is the best way. There can't be anything safer than when many people are looking at you."
Melly rolled her eyes, wondering if she needed to use that method.
'It might be fine for a while, and I'll do something when that guy isn't in the city. Right, he'll probably move to another city during university.'
Having no other choice, Melly was forced to make that ridiculous decision.
She took her phone out of her pocket, opening one of the social media apps where she happened to have over 7K followers.
'I'll start,' she said to herself, pressing the button for the live stream.
"Mm, why did you start live streaming?" Ruby asked in confusion and began to suspect something was wrong but Melly's words earlier also made sense.
Melly didn't respond, she continued to stare at her phone, surprised when she found a live audience of more than 20 right after she started live streaming.
Some even commented right away.
(Hi miss, are you in school?)
(You look young, what grade are you in?)
(Miss, study hard!)
"..."
Because of these comments, social media algorithms quickly expanded the reach of Melly's live stream.
The audience continued to increase rapidly.
"Wow!" Ruby was even more surprised.
"Like I said, there must be a lot of people watching if you're live streaming," she said.
The audience who heard her voice became curious as to who was speaking.
Melly tilted the camera slightly to the side so that Ruby's figure also entered the camera.
(Wow, your friend is so pretty too!) Someone commented.
"Guys!" Melly, whose smile was getting wider, finally spoke.
She suddenly enjoyed this.

Arthur really didn't know what the girl was doing as he was busy eating.
He only stopped when he received a call, which was actually from Rose.
Given that they had just parted ways and now she was suddenly calling him, Arthur couldn't help but suspect something was up.
"What is it?" he asked directly.
"Boss, that girl, Melly, did something," Rose replied.
"What do you mean?" Arthur was confused because he was now in front of her school. If Rose could trace the whereabouts of his cell phone, he should know that.
"Look at the link I sent!" Rose immediately sent a link to Arthur.
The latter opened it and immediately saw Melly who was talking to herself in front of her cell phone, occasionally answering questions from her live streaming audience of over 200.
"Boss, earlier she said that she would live stream 24 hours non-stop," Rose said as Arthur was looking at Melly's video.
"Although she didn't say why, I'm sure it was to avoid you."
"She went that far." Arthur tapped the table, wondering if there was something wrong with the girl's head.
"Boss, even if she uses that trick, it doesn't mean she can escape us. You know, when she's asleep, we can use the same thing we did when we stole the gold." Rose said.
"Okay, tonight we'll do that," Arthur replied.
In the end, he would still stay at Anna's house.
After finishing his meal, he texted Anna to pick him up in the afternoon.
Anna, who was having a meeting with her company's higher-ups, immediately smiled happily when she received Arthur's message, confusing the higher-ups while Amy took a deep breath.
'Baby oh baby, it seems you're still not satisfied with my charms, yeah, may you never be satisfied,' Anna thought.
Melly was reprimanded by the teacher for live streaming while studying, but she insisted on doing so, promising that she would not talk while studying.
There are always privileges for the rich.
Because Melly had promised, the teacher chose to remain silent.
Together with Ruby, Melly left the school.
The former looked around, waiting for the arrival of Arthur who didn't come at all.
"Where is he?" Ruby wondered.
Melly also looked around and finally smiled happily, similar to her mother's smile.
'He seems to know,' she thought.
"Well, forget about him! Let's go to the newly opened mall," Melly said to Ruby.
She was starting to enjoy being this internet celebrity, so she wanted to do more things to increase her popularity.
She even thought she might be able to do something without acting if she could then build power through her fans.
Arthur did leave, he went to a street, waiting for Amanda who wanted to meet him.
Not long after arriving there, a Black Mercedes appeared.
As the windows rolled down, Arthur saw Lin and Kaiya in the front while Amanda sat alone in the back.
Today the woman was wearing long pants and a black shirt.
"Dear!" She said as she opened the door for Arthur to enter.
Arthur walked right in, sitting next to her.
As the car moved, the woman shifted her butt until her body was pressed against his.
"Where did you go last night?" She asked.
She knew that Arthur hadn't come home because Bella had gone to Carla's house for a sleepover but didn't find Arthur there.
"Yeah, doing some stuff," Arthur replied, stroking her white hair, something that made Lin and Kaiya glance back.
"By the way, how's the coffee factory going?" Arthur asked Amanda.
The reason the woman had called him was to bring him to the coffee factory, but she hadn't explained anything yet.
"Basically everything is ready, now we are in the process of recruiting workers," Amanda replied.
"That should be finished today! Although most Europeans are no longer willing to do that kind of work, luckily we have a lot of willing immigrants.
"By the way, the factory will be using AI as its controller, it can make us keep the recipe secret from anyone. And I want you to come there so that you can personally explain the recipe to the AI."
"Oh!" Arthur was quite interested in the AI.
"Did you buy it?" he asked.
"Yes, and very expensive," Amanda replied with a faint smile.
"How much?" Arthur was curious.
"About 2 Million Euros, we bought it from a company in Japan, but it's not just for the coffee factory, but also my other businesses. It can be customized with many things and we will still get every version update."
