True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules ( Winnie and Suzan ) -

Chapter 149
Mae initially draped in feigned sincerity and shifted upon hearing Winnie’s words.
Simultaneously, the live stream’s chat froze for a moment.
Was this some kind of joke?
‘Mae just found a ruby bracelet, no need to freak her out, right?”
‘It’s a paranormal reality show, so a bit of eerie talk doesn’t hurt.”
‘But this old saying really exists. If you pick it up, you might just be handing over years of your life to someone else.”
‘No way, right?! Mae, throw that bracelet away!‘
*But honestly, who could resist picking up a ruby bracelet if they found one?”
‘Not me…”
“But if it is a life–trade, what’s the point if you’re not around to enjoy it?”
*Winnie must be stirring the pot for ratings, everyone chills.‘
‘Mae can’t be in trouble.”
The chat erupted into a frenzy when, out of the blue, Winnie received a flurry of gifts and donations in her livestream.
The dazzling effects lit up the screen once more, accompanied by a message from the generous patron, “Heed Master Bryant’s advice. There’s wisdom there. The crew should handle that bracelet as soon as possible.”
The warning with the same tone was now laced with a hint of seriousness.
The online crowd couldn’t help but wonder, ‘Where does Winnie get these rich and devoted
fans?”
At the other end of the broadcast, Malcolm worried the showrunners weren’t taking Winnie’s words to heart and sent ten more donations.
After seeing the Bryant family and others shower Winnie with donations, she had made it clear to her inner circle to stop sending gifts her way. After all, she’d only get half the cash from these in–show presents.
He’d better send her a direct PayPal transfer.
Winnie had made her preferences clear to everyone but Malcolm.
In the first episode, although Malcolm had also contributed, his donations were overshadowed by the more prominent members of the Bryant family.
Malcolm himself preferred to keep a low profile. But Winnie’s words triggered a memory of

something that happened to Lucy who had nearly lost her entire lifespan to a scam!
At the sight of a similar ploy and noticing the fan’s nonchalance, Malcolm couldn’t help but urge the showrunners to take action.
Malcolm’s generosity caught the attention of the crew, prompting a staff member to inform the director.
Bagot pondered for a moment before instructing Ned through the headset to keep the situation under control.
The host, upon receiving the cue, Khew Mae’s thoughts but genuinely believed in Winnie’s insights, especially after the previous episode. Coupled with Bagot’s prompt, Ned swiftly took charge. “I’ve heard of this superstition, but I don’t know the details like Winnie does. Maybe you can explain to the audience, Winnie. Is there a way to tell if there’s something off with this item?”
Since the issue had been brought up on camera, it was important to provide convincing evidence, for the sake of Winnie’s credibility.
Winnie, acknowledging the host’s intentions, didn’t beat around the bush. She stepped forward, hand outstretched. “May I take a look?” she asked.
Mae, in front of the camera, handed it over without a moment of hesitation.
Mervin, who hadn’t spotted the problem with the bracelet himself but suspected it was as Winnie described, pulled out a knife from his backpack and offered it.
“Try this.”
Winnie glanced at the obviously whittled bamboo, thanked him, and took it. She then sliced open the bag, revealing its inner lining.
The cameraman zoomed in on Winnie and the object in her hands.
Suddenly, she pulled a strand of hair from the lining of the bag. The sight sent a shiver through. everyone, but they were still reluctant to believe that this single strand could be used in a life–trading spell.
Then, without warning, Winnie placed the bracelet on the ground, picked up a rock, and smashed it without hesitation.
“Ah!” Mae couldn’t help but gasp. Realizing no one else had reacted, she clenched her teeth and stayed silent.
The live stream chat exploded.
“Isn’t Winnie going too far? What if the bracelet belongs to someone else? This will be
intentional property damage!”
The craftsmanship on the bracelet was unique. Her smashing it meant the owner couldn’t even get proper compensation.

“I refuse to believe a bracelet carries such danger!”
“If there is something wrong with that bracelet, I will be crazy!”
The last comment was cut short when Winnie pried into the bracelet with the bamboo,
revealing a mix of flaky and greyish powder. The chat took a sharp turn.
The camera captured the powder–filled interior with crystal clarity. The guests felt uneasy, and Mae turned pale, her disgust evident as she looked at the powder.
“What what is this stuff?” Candace genuinely frightened, asked, “How can a ruby bracelet contain something like this?”
Winnie turned to Mervin with a look of scholarly inquiry and asked, “Can you tell what it is?”
Mervin had been looking increasingly pale since the moment he laid eyes on the powder. Even without touching it, he knew what it was.
“It’s cremains,” he said with a solemn tone.
The word seemed to cast a shadow over the room the moment it left his lips. The staff and guests on set shifted uncomfortably, and the live streaming audience erupted into chaos.
“Oh my gosh, is it what I think it is? Jesus, that’s so creepy!”
“Dude, is this another plot twist from the showrunners? They’re really upping their game, straight up dropping bombshells!”
“I don’t think it’s scripted. Mae said she found it herself…”
“A bracelet with cremains inside is just spine–chilling, poor Mae must’ve hit a streak of bad luck. to find something like that!”
