True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 132

The chat in the live stream went silent for a moment.

Just moments ago, the camera crew had broadcast a chilling scene right before the viewers‘

eyes.

Everyone held their breath, too scared to send a message, fearing that even the slightest noise might draw the attention of “her” on the screen.

It wasn’t until Winnie spoke up that the chat seemed to come back to life.

“OMG, that was terrifying! Was “she” there the whole time?!”

“So scary! I can’t believe something straight out of a horror flick just happened IRL!”

“It’s all scripted, guys, special effects, okay? Look how scared you all got.”

“Come on, this is live, not pre–recorded!”

“I still think it’s special effects, no clue how they pulled it off, but it’s got to be fake!”

“What show plays these kinds of tricks, live ghost sightings? Isn’t the crew scared of getting marked by her?”

“If the stream isn’t banned by now, it means it’s all staged!”

“Can someone tell me this is just part of the show’s script?”

“Props to the showrunners, but can we stick to less spooky stuff next time?”

Despite the whining and whimpering in the chat, it was clear that most people preferred to believe this was all part of the show’s script.
