Chapter 79

As usual, Zachary parked the car in a less crowded spot some distance from the school.

The moment the car stopped, Aubree snatched her backpack and scrambled out. “Zachary, skip the pickup tonight, I’ve got stuff to do.”

Aubree usually didn’t arrive at school early, so at this hour, the front gate was typically quiet. But today was different, the entrance was completely blocked by an unexpected crowd.

She also saw a few camera crews in the crowd.

‘What’s going on here?’ Aubree wondered, frowning at the unexpected crowd.

As Aubree approached with her backpack, a sharp-eyed reporter suddenly shouted, “Hey, that’s Aubree! She’s here!”

All at once, the crowd surged forward. Several reporters blocked her path while gawking students closed in from all sides, leaving her trapped with no way to escape.

Aubree was completely baffled. ‘Since when did winning an esports tournament warrant this kind of media frenzy?’ she wondered.

The moment the reporters started asking questions, Aubree realized just how dead wrong she was.
