Chapter 17 Can’t Be Serious Simone left a positive impression on Keira, so she decided to change the topic to lighten the mood. She said to Simone, “Hey, weren’t you planning to make some straw hats? Can you teach me? I’d like to see if I can learn it.” Simone nodded. “Sure.” She picked up the straw and patiently taught Keira. Zac and Eric exchanged glances. They each took a chair and sat down, observing the ladies as they made straw hats. The chatroom exploded. “Is something wrong with Simone? She insulted Aero and talked back to Leon? Who does she think she is?” “Yeah. She’s just a C-list nobody. How dare she talk to Aaron and Leon like that?”

“Simone is rude. She doesn’t respect the veterans. I dislike her.” “Aero was just concerned about his sister. Simone is the one lacking intelligence.” “Her head is filled with nonsense too.” “Leon simply wanted her to stop because she went too far. Look at her. She’s not even grateful.” “No wonder Leon wanted to end their friendship. She’s so mean. She’s not a good friend.” “And Leon took care of her a lot too. What an ungrateful person.” “Simone is manipulative. She’s just trying to manipulate Leon and Aero.” “I bet she’s trying to make herself famous.” “I honestly can’t agree with you Leon and Aaron fans.” “Honestly, are you foolish? Aaron ordered Simone around first.” “So, is she guilty just because she said no?” “Do you think your idol is an emperor who can order people around? Simone doesn’t owe him anything.” “Simone never used Leon’s name to promote or market her stuff. She’s not ungrateful if there’s nothing to be grateful for.” “Leon is supposed to be her childhood friend, but he helped someone else instead. No wonder she stopped being friends with him.” “I’m not a fan of any of these guys, but to be honest, I don’t think Simone crossed any line. A certain top actor was being a bully though.” 1/3 “Finally, someone who understands me. Aaron’s a bully. Simone did well.” “Don’t you think something’s wrong?” “What?” “I think Simone, Aaron, Jodie, and Leon have a complicated relationship.” “Jojo hurriedly dragged Aaron back into the kitchen. It’s like she was worried he might say something.” “And from what Aaron said, I think he knows Simone.” “Simone is trying to cut all ties with them.” “I can sense that she can’t be bothered with them.” “It’s true that they started it first.” “Aaron and Leon fans, that’s a double standard. Just because Simone ignored their idols, they call her manipulative. I find it amusing.” “Oh please, it’s not like your idols are perfect. Not everyone loves them.” “Um, do you guys think Aaron and his sister are being a bit too close?” “Not before this, but now it’s a little awkward seeing them hold hands.” “I’m really close to my brother, but I’d never hold hands with him or cuddle like Jodie does with Aaron.” “I did that before, but with my boyfriend.”

endured the pain as she prepared the final two dishes. They divided the food in half, giving one portion to the production team in exchange for bedding supplies, while they kept the rest for themselves. One of the dishes didn’t turn out well, but Jodie spent some time plating the others, so they looked presentable. After Aaron and Leon tasted them, they praised her. Many people in the chatroom referred to Jodic as a kind lady. However, most of them were cybertroopers. Leyla also tasted the food and came to a conclusion. Either my taste buds or

started to get the hang of it, although she wasn’t working very quickly. 2/3 Three hours later, Keira finished her straw hat, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face. She put it on and looked in the mirror. “I’m wearing this tomorrow. It’s satisfying to see something I created.” In the world set in the ancient era, Simone had time to crochet and make items like these every day. Practice made perfect, so she eventually became much faster at creating DIY items. She had already finished making two straw hats and was now weaving a basket. She looked up and smiled. “Hard work pays off. You did well.” Keira smiled. “You’re right. Hard work does pay off.” Since they didn’t have phones to scroll through, the ladies washed up and prepared to sleep, even though it was only nine o’clock. While the ladies were making their
