A Second Life, A New Power novel Chapter 53

Matt smiled as he said, "Your punishment is that you won't be able to choose the same teammate as you did last time. In other words, you can't choose Maria as your teammate."

In truth, Matt had hoped that there would be more male-female pairing as they would be able to spark more chemistry for the show.

It would also give the production team some material to edit and turn them into some sweet and ambiguous moments, potentially creating a few ships to increase the show's popularity.

"Yes!" George immediately cheered out loud as he raised his fists and pumped them in the air twice.

The comments from the livestream had a riot.

"Hahaha! I think George just really loves to eat. Look how happy he is!"

"George isn't even trying to hide his excitement."

"No wonder there's a saying that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach! I've got it, and I'll be signing up for a cooking class tomorrow!"

"Wait a minute, did George ever consider that there's a possibility that Demi won't choose him?"

"George sure is confident!"

"Well, George has the capabilities to back up his confidence!"

"It seems like Chad and Thomas are also secretly looking at Demi."

"Demi is quite high up the hierarchy it seems! I really don't know who Demi would choose. I'm curious to find out!"

"I'm curious too!"

"I'm curious three!"

There were also some viewers who were confused.

"Aren't you afraid that the vicious gal would just leech off of George's fame?"

"I'm sure that the vicious gal has found herself a sugar daddy now. The whole production crew is just focused on making her shine! Otherwise, why would everyone act like they really do like her? It must be all for show!"

"I'm sure that George really does like Demi. He's not the type who would do something just because the production team wants him to do so!"

"Is George being used by the production team without his knowledge?"

"It seems like the haters are out and about again! All of you should just mind your own business! This has nothing to do with you."

"If George is willing to let Demi "leech" off of his fame, then it has nothing to do with you all!"

"All we care about is that George gets to eat some good food! Could the haters stop trying to start something between the fans?"

"Fuck off, haters!"

…

Maria said in exasperation, "Matt, it seems like you're the one who is trying to punish me here."

In truth, Maria had already decided not to team up with Demi in the next round.

"I was praying that she'd choose Chad. I can't stand watching him eat 'charcoal,' but I never thought my prayers would be answered!"

It was without a doubt that those comments were from Chad's fans. Following those comments, Chad's fans quickly turn the comment section into a full-blown celebration party.

"It's such a good day today! May everything you wish for come true!"

"The manifesting energy is so strong!"

"May all of you be lucky for the rest of the day!"

"What a good day to be alive!"

The other viewers were left speechless.

"Is there a need for you all to be so happy?"

"Don't forget what type of a person Demi is! Be careful, or she might chew one into Chad!"

"All this for a bite of food? At the expense of his own life?"

Haters jumped in with sarcastic remarks, but Chad's fans ignored them and continued their celebration.

A commenter fired back as he wrote, "Fuck off, haters!"

"Why didn't you pick me?" George asked with a frown.
