<b>Chapter </b><b>99 </b>


    Roy had gone all out for his apology: A grand, extravagant lead paired with a rather expansive gif. Sure, it paled next to the sports cars gaan, batz at least this present was still perfectly respectable.


    But what he was looking forward to most tonight was the arrival of Mdy His gaming rig we all set up, now all he had to do was wait for her to show <b>up </b>and have a showdown with him.


    As the time drew near, he couldn’t help but feel nervous


    Joshua sat quietly in the shadows as Heney took a ss, added some ice cubes, and then poured in the fuor before handing it over.


    Joshua took the ss. He was smoking more than usual today. Normally, he strictly limited himself to two cigarettes a day, no exceptions. Yet now, he picked up his lighter again and this fifth ciganelle.


    Finally, it was 9 p.m.


    Roy nced toward the door.


    The door was open.


    Then, he heard footsteps approaching


    Roy held his breath, only to see a waiter walk in. All his excitement instantly fizzled out.


    “Seriously? A waiter? What terrible timing, he thought, feelingpletely deted.


    But then, the waiter nodded slightly toward someone behind him and announced, “Miss, <b>this </b>is Room 001”


    Roy’s eyes lit up again.


    Finally, Mdy arrived, and he became overly excited. He had no idea what she looked like, but no matter. <b>Even </b>if she wasn’t pretty, he wouldn’t mind at


    ???


    But the person who <b>entered </b>was actually Shermaine.


    His excitement instantly froze.


    Not Mdy? No matter. He knew Sharmaine would arrive sooner <b>or </bter.


    Now, he could take the chance to formally apologize to Shermaine and maybe salvage his image


    Even Roy had to admit that Shermaine was drop–dead gorgeous. Her skin <b>was </b>wless, her features were <b>striking</b>, and she had an amazing gure. He h been so blind before, letting his own prejudice keep him from seeing it.


    Now, Roy was <b>absolutely </b><b>floored</b>. He could barely even remember what Wendelyn looked like anymore.


    But Joshua had always been so emotionally detached. Even with a beauty like Shermaine, Roy doubted he’d have any interest in that way,


    Suddenly, he found myself feeling indignant on Shermaine’s behall


    <b>Just </b>as he was about to greet them, Shermaine peered inside. She didn’t spot Joshua hiding in the shadows, <b>but </b>Roy did. After a brief pause, she asked “<b>Who’s </b><b>FilthShay</b>?”


    <b>What</b>?


    What did she just say?


    14:05 Mon, 9Jun ? GG)


    Did she ask which of them was FithShay?


    That… That was.


    Boy Moodfrozen like an for sodipture, his mind inplete tamail.


    Shermaine was Mdy?!


    So all this time, he had been shamelessly chasing after her while running his stupid mouth behind her back!


    Rey swayed unsteadily, on the verge of copse


    “Have you ever been dying of thist in the desert, only to spot an oasis–then realize it’s just a mirage? Have you ever truly tasted despair God, why are you doing this to me?‘ he wailed inwardly


    All the color drained from his face. Roy just wanted to copse to the ground and sob


    Shermaine couldn’t understand Roy’s mood. When no owe replied, she pressed, “So, which one of you is Fifthshay?”


    With his head down, Roy slowly raised his hand. “That would be me…”


    Shermine took one look at him and fell silent. Wow, he must be mortified, she thought.


    Inside, Henry choked on his drink and quickly <b>grabbed </b><b>a </b>tissue to wipe his clothes. He was dying <b>to </bugh but decided to give Roy some for and held it


    in for now.


    He thought. Gotta hand it to Joshua. What a ruthless move. He really went all out this time


    No wonder Joshua said that hacker was working for him. He already knew the legendary Mdy Roy had been chasing was actually Shermaine. Now, Roy had no choice but to give up.


    Poor guy. Absolutely brutal.


    Joshua swirled the ss in his hand, the ice clinking crisply against the ss. He took a leisurely, deliberate sip, then stubbed out his cigarette.


    Shermaine walked in, calm and collected, and went straight to the point. “Warmasolo?


    The hacker who had been pestering her was actually Roy, which was quite <b>a </b><b>surprise</b>. Still, a solo match wouldn’t hurt,


    Roy’s face fell. “Just… <b>give </b>me a moment to process this,” he mumbled before shuffling to theer.
