A Replacement Bride

Chapter 221

After dinner, Keith continued playing the game with Noah.

When Noah sat down on the couch and picked up her phone, she saw that Katherine and Joaquin seemed bored. Therefore, she smiled sweetly and asked, "Do you want to play with us, Mom?"

Initially, Katherine intended to turn her down, but as she met the girl's expectant gaze, she recalled that she had neglected her for quite some time. After a moment of silence, she went over and fished out her phone. "What game is it?"

Keith's eyes brightened when he realized that Katherine was interested. He took her phone quickly and installed the game on her behalf.

The internet speed in the house was excellent, so it only took him ten minutes to complete the installation. He also created a new account for her. Since she was still a new player, she had to complete the beginner's tasks.

Joaquin watched them for a while. After giving it some thought, he suggested, "Why don't you use Ben's account? From what I remember, he plays this game as well."

Katherine was focused on doing the beginner's tasks and learning how to use the character when she heard that, so she lifted her head and glanced at him. "Huh?"

"Ben has a smurf account that he uses to play this game with the girls," Joaquin explained calmly and sent Ben a message. After getting the username and password, he showed them to Katherine.

She had just completed two beginner's tasks and felt that she had gotten the hang of it, so she logged into Ben's smurf account.

The instant she connected to the game, she saw an invitation. Without hesitation, she accepted it and entered an arena.

Joaquin took a look and realized there were only two people in the arena so far. Random players would gradually join them to deal with the opponents.

It was a new season, and players were eager to gain more points. Just as Joaquin wanted to give Katherine a heads-up, the fight had started.

Meanwhile, Keith was about to send a friend request to Katherine when he realized that she had gotten into a fight, so he gazed at her in shock. "Kathy?"

Katherine turned to him. "Is there a problem?"

"No, not really. Just give it a try." Keith then fell silent as he watched Katherine start the battle. Recalling that his sister was an intelligent person, he set his mind at ease slightly.

Then, he and Noah started a new battle.

Katherine had turned on her speaker, so she could hear her team members and the opponents speak.

After the bottle storted, someone cursed furiously, "Domn it! Do you even know how to ploy the gome, Storkov? Are you out of your mind? Why did you get yourself killed?"
