True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 202

Gentry and Sean weren’t whispering at all. Everyone, from guests and villagers to the folks watching the live–stream, caught their every word.

Some, like Gentry, just figured Sean was being modest.

But Winnie knew better. Humility wasn’t Sean’s style, so if he said something, it had to be the truth.

However, when she had rushed to the pond’s edge last night, she did feel an elusive trace of mystical energy.

At that time, she had assumed it was Sean’s. But it seems like that’s not the case now.

So where did that subtle force come from?

Winnie pondered, her gaze drifting towards Gentry, a hunch quietly forming in the back of her mind.

Before long, the group made their way down the hill and back to the village.

The Chief had to inform the villagers about the werewolf sighting, discuss building a shrine, and propose to honor the legend in the town hall. After a quick exchange with the television crew, he led a procession of villagers to prepare for a grand assembly.

Bagot was about to suggest the guests take a break when Joseph, trailed by his cameraman, approached them.

He had skipped the morning hike due to feeling under the weather, but after following their adventure on the live feed, he hurried over as soon as he knew they were back.

Determined to stick with the “Ghostly Guidance” crew for the next few episodes, he didn’t want his fans to think he couldn’t make it past one.

Looking refreshed from a good night’s sleep and this morning’s rest, his youthful vigor was unmistakable as he greeted everyone with enthusiasm and concern, his worry landing deliberately on Winnie’s face.

Then his gaze shifted to Sean standing beside Winnie. The strikingly handsome teenager had an air of awe about him that was hard to miss.
