With that, the entertainment company changes its ownership.


Since some third-class celebrities from the live broadcast platform had been poached away, the company was facing severe cash flow problems.


With Casper taking over at this critical timing, all the finance problems were solved overnight.


However, to thoroughly fix the situation, they needed a higher rating for the broadcast. Not only they had to find an experienced online streamer in no time, but they also got to attract lots of users.


There was no other way to attract users than to advertise as much as possible.


As for finding a famous online streamer, of course, the company needed to have a lot of money. Money was also the exact reason why those celebrities quit in the first place.


And it was also because of that, Tiana wanted to get a loan.


Casper intended to solve the root cause of the problem once and for all.


With that, he announced an offer that all celebrities who joined would get a base salary. The more popularity they had, the higher the pay would be.


Besides, they would be entitled to get forty percent of the gift they received during broadcasting.


Such a rare offer was indeed a jackpot to all online streamers.


Casper knew better that it was necessary to burn some cash at the starting period. As long as the move was right, it was just a matter of time to earn back all those money.


After explaining his plan, Casper left the whole matter in Tiana’s hands.


He had no doubt she could pull it off successfully.


With that, he went back to college right after.


The following morning, Felix was staring at Casper, who was lying on his bed, having no idea what time the latter got back the previous night.


Casper had got all dressed up by that time.


Meanwhile, Remy did not say a word the entire time, supposedly still mad about the stuff with Jessica.


He got freshened up abruptly and headed out alone.


At that moment, the other three guys exchanged eyes with each other with a rather helpless expression.


Felix furrowed his brows as he spoke, “Remy has gotten truly obsessed this time. What should we do?”


What was in his mind was also troubling Casper and Colton. After all, they had been close roommates for quite a long time.


Yet, none of them knew how to deal with such a situation.


“Casper, what do you think? How can we stop him from losing himself?”


Felix shifted his gaze towards Casper, and Colton followed.


As in their eyes, Casper had always been the brain of the group. And most importantly, Jessica was after Casper.


Looking at their anticipating eyes, Casper let out a long sigh.


What else can I do? Remy does not trust us anymore, and all his mind has belonged to Jessica. At this point, we can only take a step at a time.


He shook his head wryly.


Upon seeing that, disappointment loomed over Felix and Colton’s faces.


After the morning classes ended, they returned to the dorm, but Remy still had not appeared. It looked like he was determined to keep his distance from them.


“Come on. Let’s go to the cafeteria.”


Colton nodded at Casper’s suggestion, but Felix lowered his head, looking dispirited.


“You guys go on. I’ll pass. I’m not hungry.”


Casper and Colton could not wrap their heads around his behavior.


No matter how hard they questioned him, he refused to answer. Hence, they had no choice but to go without him.


Arriving at the cafeteria, Casper planned to buy two sets of meals and find Amelia. But a couple caught his eyes the moment he walked in. A man and a woman were eating together at a corner and chatting happily.


To his startle, he realized the woman was Wendy, Felix’s girlfriend.


The next second, Casper walked towards them recklessly.


“Wendy, how could you do this to Felix?”


He was pissed to discover his friend’s girlfriend’s betrayal.


At that instant, there was panic in Wendy’s eyes.


“We’ve broken up. Didn’t he tell you?”


Upon listening to that, Casper and Colton were left in shock.


Meanwhile, The man sitting right next to Wendy was staring at them mockingly.


“Who are these two clowns?” He sounded utterly arrogant.


Wendy immediately responded.


“Silas, don’t overthink. They’re roommates of my ex.”


Upon saying that, she threw a glance towards Casper and Colton.


“Felix and I have no relationship already. Please leave now.”


Casper refused to let go easily, but words choked on his throat.


With a whole body of branded wear, Silas was without doubt from a family of wealth. Never did Casper expect that Wendy would end up chasing after money.


That seemed a little out of character for her!


At the moment, Casper’s heart was filled with confusion, as well as anger.


However, he knew it was not his place to do anything. The best thing he could do was to ask Felix for the truth.


Back to the dorm, they saw Felix numbing himself in the world of computer games.


“Felix, we saw your girlfriend eating with another man!”


Colton was beyond exasperated, and he expected Felix to have an equal reaction.


To their befuddlement, Felix nodded calmly without turning his head while continuing to play his computer game.


Casper was left speechless with that. It seemed like Felix had truly broken up with Wendy, only that he did not tell anyone.


“What’s happened? I thought you guys had a great relationship. And she wasn’t a gold digger, was she?”


Casper could not hold back his concerns.


With Felix still reluctant to speak, Casper started to lose his patience. “Do you still treat us as your friends? Please tell us if you have any trouble!”


Casper’s loud tone got Felix’s attention as he finally turned his face away from the computer screen to face them.`


His face was devoid of expression, while there was a deep sorrow disguised within those eyes.


“Could you stop asking? We’ve broken up.”


At that moment, a decadent aura exuding from him.


How could I stop asking? How could I let my friend being betrayed without doing anything? That’s not possible!


“Tell me what the h*ll happened? Wasn’t everything fine not long ago?”


Right then, Felix’s eyes began to redden.


“I… I don’t know either. She just asked for a breakup out of a sudden, and she dissed me for being poor.”


It was extremely difficult for Felix to finish his sentence.


“Forget it. I guess this is all fate. A penniless idiot does not deserve to be loved. That’s a game for the rich.”


Casper felt utterly displeased with his statement.


“Please think again carefully! From what I knew Wendy was never that kind of woman. Let’s go to the cafeteria right now and sort everything out!”


Felix was stunned by Casper’s persistence. Indeed, Wendy was never really interested in money. Why did she change so quickly?


Maybe women are all ever-changing.


“Casper, could you please let this go this time? Would you mind sparing me some pride of a man? She had said that with her mouth. What else can I say?”


“Shut up.”


Casper grabbed Felix’s arm forcefully and pulled the latter in the direction of the cafeteria.


Even though Felix was hesitating, he could not resist Casper’s strong persistence.


As they got to the cafeteria, Wendy was still there with Silas. Looking at that scene, Felix’s body started shaking uncontrollably.


Looking at the woman he loved behaving so intimately with another man, he felt as though a thousand needles were stabbing through his heart.
