Chapter 339 The Live Streaming Is Back
Edward began to blink repeatedly with a stab of bitterness that surged through his heart. The tone of this sincere advice was completely like how one would treat a younger brother. After all, Freya’s tone sounded like she was talking to her younger brother. At the same time, the fact that Freya didn’t hesitate to hold his hands didn’t seem to sit well with Edward, who knew she usually kept her distance from other men. Because of that, he became confused, not knowing whether he should be happy or sad with Freya’s reaction.
As the duo went on chatting with each other, Freya proceeded to ask Edward about his studies.
“Do you
have a crush in school, Edward? Don’t hesitate to tell me if you do. After all, it’s normal for you to start dating around your age, so if you have a girlfriend, I could help. survey for the best present you should give her.”
go
Nonetheless, Edward only pursed his lips and said, “It’s time. Freya. We should live now.”
It was then that Freya turned her attention to the clock on her phone. “Oh, gosh. You’re right, man. It is indeed time now.”
Freya then sat at the table while Edward made his way to the camera right beside the lady. At the same time, Freya was able to notice some subtle signs that indicated that Edward wasn’t happy. Thinking Edward might be moody, she became slightly disturbed and began questioning herself whether she had been a busybody for prying into his personal affairs. Nevertheless, before she was able to figure out an answer, her live broadcast channel was already filled with viewers as soon as it was available to join.
‘Freya! Freya!’
‘Clove! Clove!”
“Just call me DiligentFrey, or if you guys don’t mind, Frey will do.” Freya chuckled.
As the live went on, messages could be seen flashing through the screen one by one. It was obvious that almost everyone among her top fans had joined Freya’s live broadcast after learning about Freya’s return.
Upon answering several questions, Freya went on to start off the tutorial.
“Earlier, I received quite a number of messages from you guys asking me about the incense recipe on Twitter. So, I specially prepared these things for that, in order to show you guys exactly what I did during the competition.”
‘Hold on, second. Let me grab a pen and paper.”
‘Oh, come on. This is the champion who is conducting the tutorial. Are we really going to do this already?’
Soon, Freya went on to introduce the ingredients required for the process, one by one. “The ones that I use are a little pricey, but you could always get some affordable ones on those shopping platforms. For example, I bought this incense burner because of how lovely it. looks, but in fact, any similar burner that you can find elsewhere on the internet would do.”
Freya spoke clearly and slowly as she went on to the main subject of her live streaming. At the same time, she placed the list of ingredients somewhere visible on the side and wrote the steps of the process on the whiteboard so that her viewers could take notes. Trying to be at good teacher, Freya believed that there was no way her viewers would go astray unless they lacked the initiative to learn.
As Freya’s live streaming went on for the next two hours, she kept repeating the process for her viewers to observe and learn. At the same time, she also patiently answered every single question her viewers asked her. Meanwhile, HumblePath, SparklingSorceress, MonDa, and MattMajesty, who were among Freya’s top fans, had remained silent all the time, yet they didn’t stop giving her rewards. Nevertheless, Freya was seemingly able to figure out who the people were behind those internet pseudonyms, although she wasn’t planning on revealing
them.
Suddenly, a notification popped up on the screen. ‘DilligentFrey has just received The Cosmic Knight from Strategist.
The Cosmic Knight was actually a new gift that was newly launched by the platform with a price of 5,000 per unit. While the small collection contained 99 units, the larger collection. set consisted of 3 subsets of 9 units each.
Upon seeing the notification, Freya stared at the computer screen in silence. This huge collection set is worth five million! Who is this fella, Strategist? How come this person just gave me a present without saying a word?
“All the donations that we receive during the live stream will be used for charity. So, I hereby express my utmost gratitude to you, Strategist, on behalf of the children in the mountains.” Freya smiled.
Meanwhile, a second-hand Buick was seen parked outside the Kaufmann Residence’s gate. Inside the vehicle sat Jamie, who was watching Freya’s live stream. When he heard her words, he raised his eyebrows and curled his lips upward. “You’re welcome.” He replied to himself. The reason Jamie was there was because he was his brother’s driver who took him to Freya’s place.
After the live stream ended, Freya still received money from her viewers and fans, who wanted her happy because of her return after such a long hiatus. Furthermore, they became

more active in donating when they learned that the fund would be used on the children in the mountains without any commission being taken by the livestream platform.
As Freya’s revenue nearly amounted to 20 million, MattMajesty refused to let Strategist steal the limelight and decided to do something about it. At the same time, MonDa also felt unhappy to let Matt Majesty have all the attention and credit, which led to a battle of vanity
between them.
Eager to prove himself, Matthew went on donating to Freya but unknowingly got annoyed. Thus, he was kicked out of the live stream broadcast the next moment.
Seriously?! How childish!
her
When the live stream finished, Freya went on to put away the incense on the table. In the meantime, Edward was busy checking the devices and filming equipment. When he was carefully wiping the lens, his watch accidentally scratched the camera.
Stunned, Edward immediately took off his watch and put it in his pocket. After tidying up the place, he took out his watch again and put it back on. Then, when his eyes fell upon the watch buckle, he couldn’t help but frown and wonder whether its lifespan would reduce if he repeatedly did and undid the buckle.
Meanwhile, Freya had no idea what Edward was thinking in his mind as she only saw him. looking at the watch without blinking. “What’s wrong? Is the time wrong or something?” Freya took a closer look at the watch. “Oh yeah, I haven’t adjusted the time yet.”
“No, I specifically checked the time, and it’s correct,” Edward answered, looking up with a smile on his face.
“It’s almost ten now, by the way. Let me take you home.” Freya nodded.
“No need for that, Freya. Jamie took me here today. He’s actually waiting for me at the
entrance now.”
Freya frowned. “Why didn’t you tell him to come in and wait in the living room instead? He could have waited for you comfortably here instead of waiting for you in the car for 2 hours
Edward pursed his lips when he heard Freya’s words. Deep down, he didn’t want Jamie to enter the Kaufmann Residence because it seemed to him that his brother was deliberately trying to get in touch with people from the Kaufmann family and their company. After all, Jamie had already become Braxton’s assistant, but nonetheless, Edward had no idea how to tell Freya about that. Thus, he came up with a story to brush it off.
“No, Jamie had his own business to take care of while waiting for me,” Edward answered.
Soon, Freya saw Edward out by walking him to the exit. When she saw the car parked there she was relieved to see that there was indeed someone waiting for Edward. Not long after

that, the car window rolled down as Jamie’s handsome face came into view with a tender expression on it.
“Miss Kaufmann.”
Freya, who noticed the old Buick, squinted and looked closer at it while wondering where Jamie got it. Oh, come on! Look at that paint. It’s falling off from the car’s body, and I can even see the
rust.
“Mr. Fraser.” Freya chuckled. “It seems that my brother hasn’t been paying you enough. Don’t you have your own car? Why don’t you drive it instead?”
“That’s the company’s car. I only get to drive it when giving Mr. Kaufmann a ride.” Jamie
smiled.
“Seriously? That’s kind of ridiculous.” Freya sighed. “You should drive that car more often. because it seems dangerous for you to be driving this thing.”
“Well, unfortunately, rules are rules, and as Mr. Kaufmann’s assistant, I can’t afford to set a bad example, Jamie responded with a gentle tone. He then took a look at his brother, Edward, and said, “Come on, Edward. Get in the car.”
As soon as Edward entered the car, Jamie immediately stepped on the gas pedal and drove off. After traveling for some distance, Jamie looked in the rear mirror and caught a glimpse of Freya, who was standing at the entrance and watching them leave the rear mirror. Then, he gently moved his hands along the steering wheel before reaching for the buttons next to
Deep down, only Jamie himself knew that he never drove a stranger’s car because he was always worried for his safety as he was afraid there could be bugs or spy cameras in it. Furthermore, he was also scared that the brakes could be tampered with, or worse the vehicle was rigged with bombs, which would put him in danger should he be unlucky enough to drive one of those cars.
Come on! What’s wrong with me? Why am I scaring myself now? Is it because I always travel at night? Jamie chuckled to himself at the thought of that.
