True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 197

Yesterday’s late night grind had the whole crew working until the wee hours, so today’s show didn’t hit the

yee until two hours behind schedule.

Winnie, a creature of habit, was up with the roosters, despite the delay.

As the crew and the day’s guests scrambled to prep for the broadcast, the local chief, along with a group of villagers made their way over.

Aware that the crew planned to trek Into the woods, the chief decided to bring along a few sturdy young villagers for backup.

After all, it was a matter of local concern. Plus, they were itching to find out why the wolves in the woods had it out for the village.

It wasn’t like their ancestors hadn’t coexisted with those creatures, planting apple orchards and berry bushes without issue.

Realizing everyone was keyed up about the wolf situation, Winnie didn’t dawdle after breakfast. She led the crew and villagers into the forest.

Joseph, still rattled from last night’s scare, and another cameraman were no–shows.

Gentry, though shaken too, insisted on joining the mountain foray.

The procession marched into the mountain, with Winnie and her crew in the lead. Sean walked beside her, holding a rope with six wolves tethered to it.

Somehow, he’d managed to keep them docile, and they trooped along, leading the way without a hint of rebellion.

Viewers had camped out in the live stream chat, eager for a glimpse of the so–called werewolves.

The chat exploded with excitement.

“Finally, the legendary werewolves? Can’t wait..”

“Be careful up there, guys. Don’t get hurt.”

“Hope no danger comes their way.”

“Hopefully, these wolves are as chill as the ones up front.”
