A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World (WN)-Chapter 2477: She’s My Elder Sister
Chapter 2477: She’s My Elder Sister
Angelina used her final’s work to point out Fergus as the murderer. It was really the so-called “one stone stirred up waves.”
Hades only shared a related WeTwit before the competition and said something before the competition started.
However, Angelina had done that action in front of a 2,000,000,000 live-stream audience in the actual competition.
The picture with 100 beasts was changed to Fergus’ drawing. This act that resembled a magic trick was definitely premeditated.
The atmosphere in the studio was solemn. All the staff members looked at Johnny. This was already a live-streaming accident and it involved another plutocrat. Should they continue the live-stream or perhaps, how should they continue with it?
Johnny turned his gaze towards Nancy on the judges’ table. He couldn’t decide this matter. He had to ask Miss Nancy.
Even though the McCarthy Family and the Dixon Family were never on good terms, due to their statuses, the two families were still cordial to each other on the surface.
Previously, Hades’ behavior could still be explained as the contestant’s individual actions and had nothing to do with the programming division.
However, Angelina’s actions on the final were equivalent to pushing the programming division into the firing line. They had no way to explain that.

Lucien was also watching the live-stream interface in his WeTwit building’s office with wide eyes and dropped jaws. “Is the McCarthy Family and the Dixon Family going to clash head on? They actually did that in the show?”
The plutocrat families were not all friendly with one another. After tens of thousands of years of development, they had more enmity than friendship.
However, as the plutocrats began to conceal their edges, such clashes on the surface were rarely seen.
It was now all up to Nancy to decide if it was the contestant’s personal action, or the McCarthy Family’s instruction.

“Darn it! How dare that b*tch do that?!”
At the Mala Archipelago’s periphery, an imposing castle was erected on a private island.
On the second floor balcony, Fergus, who was sent here to avoid all the attention, smashed his crystal wine glass on the floor and stared at Angelina on the screen with tightly clenched teeth.
Could the plutocrats be provoked by just anybody now?
However, the heat that was slowly suppressed, was brought back up by these two fellows’ consecutive actions again. It was completely out of control now.
“Third Young Master, the head of the family asked you to stay out of this matter. The family will take care of it,” a middle-aged man came upstairs and calmly said while the robot cleaned up the shards.
“Colin, if this matter can’t be suppressed… what will happen?” Fergus asked that man.
“Don’t worry, Third Young Master. There is nothing that the Dixon Family can’t suppress,” the man replied with a faint expression.

Other than the people who were enjoying the gossip, the different parties with invested interests were also equally concerned about the direction of public opinion that had suddenly changed.
In the course of history, such things had happened before.
However, no matter how furious the people’s opinion was, the plutocrats remained standing. A bunch of angry ordinary people was nothing.
However, this time was different. The extra attention from the military had increased the uncertainty of this matter.
Moreover, what role was the McCarthy Family playing behind all this?
Almost everyone was waiting for Nancy to express her stand. No matter if it was stopping the show, or supporting the contestant, it would be deemed as the McCarthy Family’s stand.
And Nancy was also equally caught unaware by Angelina’s sudden actions.
Hades’ actions in the morning were still within her understanding, but Angelina’s current behavior had indeed puzzled her.
Although Angelina’s performance in this season’s Top Chef Competition wasn’t bad, she didn’t intend to recruit her into the McCarthy Manor.
Without the McCarthy Family’s protection, antagonizing and provoking the Dixon Family like this was equivalent to kicking against the pr*cks.
Nancy looked at the girl with a determined expression and the man with a clear gaze, and suddenly felt like laughing.
Perhaps there were many people who were righteous in this world, but the bravest two seemed to be both standing on the Top Chef Competition’s final stage today.
Then, was she, the organizer of this show, going to hide herself?
Should that pervert who killed an innocent maiden pay for his crimes?
“Clap, clap, clap!”
Nancy got up and clapped as she said to Angelina with appreciation, “Although this face is revolting, if I have to grade this awesome performance, I will give it the second full marks today.
“I think this unexpected performance is indeed a scalp-tingling and shocking performance.”
The studio was quiet for a moment before random claps rang out. Then, it gradually became a loud applause.
Angelina bit her lower lips tightly and tried very hard to hold back the tears in her reddened eyes.
From the moment she threw the flour, she was prepared to be evicted from the studio. She didn’t expect to receive the overwhelming applause.
Other than feeling surprised, Mag had guessed that Nancy most probably wouldn’t evict Angelina on the show. That would be equivalent to bowing down to the Dixon Family, and would completely destroy the Top Chef Competition, the hottest variety show online.
However, he had never expected Nancy to state her stand so clearly and praise Angelina.
Nancy asked Angelina, “Perhaps, you can share with us why you wanted to create this work?”
This question was also in everyone’s heart.
Angelina didn’t just share a WeTwit. The transformation of the picture with 100 beasts to Fergus’ drawing with a bucket of flour was the result of meticulous planning and practice. That would have started before this year’s Top Chef show.
Everyone wanted to know why she did that, including Mag.
“I…” Angelina looked at Nancy. She could sense encouragement from Nancy’s eyes as she said with a low voice, “That girl that was killed by Fergus was my elder sister. She was three years older than me and was my only family. He killed her, and my world.”
The studio was silent once again.
Nancy clenched her fists instinctively as she looked at Angelina, who was trembling, with pity.
All the judges and staff members present were also shocked.
“Oh I see.” Mag finally got it. Angelina was that girl’s younger sister, so her sudden rapid increase in favorability for him was understandable.
That wasn’t love. Instead, it was gratefulness.
All the people were watching a good show. The plutocrats were calculating and trading. Perhaps in this world, only she truly cared about that girl who was murdered by Fergus and buried under the tree.
Only she truly wanted the murderer to pay for his crime with his life.
She was still going to do it even if she was attempting the impossible and would perish in the process.
“Her name is Selena. She had dimples when she smiled. On the day before her 18th birthday, she was invited to Horace’s production team with the excuse of portraying a character. Nobody has ever seen her again after that day.
“Two days ago, Horace admitted that Fergus has murdered her and buried her under the tree.
“I want him to pay for his crime.”
Angelina’s voice was low, but exceptionally convicted.
