Possessed No More: The True Star Returns to Claim Her Throne Chapter 89: ’Go on an Adventure Together’ Starts Recording

"She won’t? Then how did she fall for that pretty boy, Vernon Jacobs, in the first place? Besides, haven’t you heard the saying? When an ex returns, the current partner is certain to lose.

If that Jacobs guy pulls a few tricks, you might just get kicked to the curb."

Cole Sinclair: "...Get lost."

Riley Perry had said she had a thing about cleanliness and wouldn’t accept a man who had been "soiled."

Even though he knew Riley wouldn’t go back to her ex, he still felt a sense of unease.

He couldn’t quite put his finger on why.

Cole Sinclair had originally planned to spend the night with Riley Perry at her small apartnt. The show wasn’t set to air until eight, so leaving early wouldn’t affect the filming.

But at the last minute, he changed his mind and went back to his own place at The Imperial Crest Apartnts.

As for his three friends, he simply ditched them halfway there. He was just that ruthless!

...

When lanie Chenning got ho, she had a long face. The servants, familiar with their young mistress’s temper, saw her foul mood and kept their distance, afraid of becoming collateral damage.

Back in her room, lanie Chenning first tried calling Clent Lee, but he didn’t pick up.

She had no choice but to keep calling. Clent Lee had left first after losing the money, and though she had hurried after him, she couldn’t catch up. She knew he must be furious—after all, it was over a hundred million. Anyone would be upset.

Therefore, she had to coax him back quickly. ’Otherwise, where else would she find such a perfect tool?’

The call finally connected on the third try. lanie Chenning pulled out all the stops to appease him, even offering to cover the money Clent Lee had lost. Only then was he placated.

After hanging up, she let out a long sigh of relief and waited for the private investigator to deliver what she had requested.

But she waited and waited, and he never showed. What’s more, his phone was off. She had a bad feeling. ’Could sothing have happened to the private investigator?’

Then again, she composed herself. ’So what if he was caught? It’s just taking a few pictures. That isn’t against the law.’

Things were indeed as she’d thought. Julian Fuller released the man quickly. Of course, before letting him go, the man got a beating—nothing serious, but he’d be sore for a week or so. His phone was smashed, which was why lanie Chenning couldn’t reach him.

But a certain petty man didn’t see it that way.

When Cole Sinclair returned to his apartnt, the empty rooms felt strangely unfamiliar. That woman had only been back for a few days, yet he was already unused to her absence.

Thinking of that lanie Chenning woman, Cole found Clent Lee’s number and called him.

He wouldn’t allow anyone to constantly sche against him, much less ddle in his life. He wouldn’t tolerate it from an outsider like lanie Chenning, and he wouldn’t even tolerate it from his own parents.

...

「At 8 a.m. the next day」, the crew from *Go on an adventure together* knocked on the door of Riley Perry’s apartnt right on ti.

This variety show was rather unusual. So far, all Riley Perry knew was that it was an adventure-thed show and that the director was Director Warren, who had several hit movies and TV shows under his belt. As for a script, there was none.

The show was broadcast live in its entirety. Six guests had been invited in total, but she still had no idea who the other five were.

"Good morning, Miss Perry. We’re the crew from *Go on an adventure together*. The live stream has already started. Would you like to say hello to the audience?"

"Of course." Riley Perry let the crew in and then stood confidently in front of the cara.

Soon, Riley Perry appeared before the live stream audience, dressed in a loose-fitting white shirt with its hem reaching the tops of her thighs, light green skinny pants, and white sneakers. "Hello everyone, I’m Riley Perry. Welco to *Go on an adventure together*."

Since it was Director Warren’s show and there had been so online promotion beforehand, quite a few viewers were in the live stream, even though it was a Monday.

Bullet Comnts: [OMG! A critical hit of beauty, a critical hit! Can soone tell why Riley Perry got so gorgeous? I admit she was pretty before, but not *this* pretty!]

[First ti seeing soone wear such simple clothes with so much style. Drop the link!]

[Sa!]

[And she looks like she’s bare-faced! She’s this beautiful with no makeup? Why did she used to wear that awful makeup?]

[Her voice is so nice to listen to, too! Quick, quick, say more!]

Inside the apartnt, a crew mber holding a cara asked, "Miss Perry, can we look around?"

"Of course, you can. But there’s not much to see. It’s a small, single-person apartnt provided by my company. It’s just right for one person. Feel free to look around."

The crew mber panned the cara around the room. Because Riley Perry had deliberately decorated it beforehand, the apartnt, though small, looked especially warm and cozy. "Riley’s place is decorated so beautifully."

Riley Perry, who was in the middle of wheeling her suitcase out, was taken aback for a mont. She looked up and t the young assistant’s gaze. Claire Lee’s face instantly flushed red. "I—I’m a fan of yours. Is it okay if I call you Riley?"

In fact, her fans who were there for her looks secretly called her Sweetie.

Riley Perry smiled. "Of course, you can. I didn’t expect to have a fan on the crew. I’m very happy."

The caraman cleverly zood in, and the live stream audience got a clear view of the book titles.

Anti-fans are always the first to arrive. As soon as Riley Perry appeared, so anti-fans got the news and rallied their troops. By now, so were already flaming in the bullet comnts: [Isn’t this book collection a bit all over the place? Computer science, economics, math, dicine, botany, acting... and there are a few history books over there. Doesn’t this look a little pretentious?]

[Don’t tell she’s trying to create a brainiac persona too?]

[Could be. But I heard her grades in college were terrible. She had to retake exams all the ti.]

[I’m gonna puke! This woman is probably about to stir up so drama again. What a waste of a pretty face!]

Claire Lee, who was also watching the bullet comnts on her phone, was furious. She took the initiative to address Riley: "Riley, you have so many books at ho! Have you read all of them?"

Riley Perry: "Nope. Those are all newly bought, just for decoration. I’m usually too busy to have ti to read." ’If I said I’d read them all, soone would definitely use it to attack . It’s easier just to say I haven’t.’

Bullet Comnts: [...]

Seriously, the bullet comnts went blank for a full minute. Honesty truly is the ultimate weapon. Riley Perry’s words had left the haters completely speechless.

After a long pause, a single bullet comnt finally appeared: [I’m just sayin’, you don’t have to be *that* honest...]

Riley Perry’s fans were delighted: [Hahaha, I’m dying! Did you hear that, haters? Our Riley said the books are just for show!]

Neutral Viewers: ...So speechless. Are we supposed to be happy about soone buying books just for decoration?

Her luggage was already packed, so Riley Perry grabbed her suitcase and set off. She still had to et up with the other guests before heading to the filming location together.

Just then, a few comnts popped up in the stream: [The second guest has been revealed! It’s the popular young actress Roxanne Fulton! Everyone, go check it out!]
