Sweet Sorrow

Chapter 191 I Do Need An Explanation

After attending the annual meeting of the Internet celebrity, Nicole's popularity soared sharply. The number of her fans directly increased from ten thousands to hundred thousands, and her payment also rose, making a lot.

Of course, Nicole was happy to have such a good result. She immediately pressed down on the new plan made by the company, taking shape photos and Livestream, so she had almost no free time.

However, there were worries and joy in her heart. Judy called her and asked her to go back as soon as possible.

When Nicole received this call, she thought her mother was sick again, or something happened to Jim. After careful questioning, she knew that her neighbor had seen her news, which spread twenty to a hundred. Now the whole community knew that she was the so-called Internet celebrity.

Judy was a traditional housewife. She didn't know much about the Internet, nor did she know how to make money on the Internet. Of course she was proud that her daughter could be reported on TV, but she couldn't bear it that she didn't know about it. Her daughter was famous, but she was told by others.

Therefore, she asked Nicole to come home to have a talk with her daughter.

"Are you leaving now?" Jacob was reading the new plan submitted by the operations department in his office. Unexpectedly, he received a call from Nicole, who said that she would go home.

"Yes." Nicole said anxiously, "my mother is in poor health after the operation and she can't bear the stimulation. I'd better go back as soon as possible."

Jacob closed the plan and said lightly, "I'll go with you."

"No, thanks! Go ahead with your business. I'll come back tonight or come back tomorrow at the latest. "

"…… Okay. " Jacob's eyes fell on the plan again. "Then I'll ask the driver to wait for you downstairs and send you back directly."

"Thank you."

Nicole set the time for sending the video regularly, hurriedly packed up a few necessities, and specially packed a cake she had just made. When she went downstairs, the driver sent by Jacob happened to come.

After getting in the car, Nicole called Judy and reported the schedule to her, saying that she would go back right away.

"It's okay. Don't worry. Take care on the road." Although Judy was angry, she still cared about her daughter's safety.

"I know."

Two hours later, Nicole returned home.

She took a few deep breaths, as she was ready to be scolded, she knocked on the door. The door was opened quickly and Judy appeared behind it.

"Mom I'm back... " Nicole greeted Judy obediently.

Judy nodded, "come in."

Nicole changed her shoes and handed the cake to Judy, "Mom, I made it just now. Have a taste."

"……" Judy took the cake and shook her head. "You know I won't blame you, so you are getting bolder, aren't you?"

"No."

"Well, come and sit down. I have a lot to ask you."

Nicole nodded and followed Judy to sit on the sofa. She put her hands on her knees like a primary school student, waiting for Judy's order.

Judy looked at her daughter and didn't know whether to cry or to laugh. She opened her mouth, but finally said helplessly, "forget it. Tell me by yourself. I don't know where to ask."

"Well, mom, you just want to ask me about being an Internet celebrity, right?"

"Yes, or you are hiding anything from me. Does everyone know except me?" Judy asked in return.

With a guilty conscience, Nicole shook her head, "no, no more."

"Well, let's talk about it. I know you are making some videos and having Livestream stuff online. But when did you become so famous? Why are you so famous all of a sudden? "

"Well... It's a long story. " Taking a deep breath, Nicole briefly told the whole story: her experiments, her learning to edit videos, the video being watched by the agency, signing contracts and so on.

Except for Jacob.

It took Judy a long time to understand what was going on. She murmured, "I really don't understand the world of young people. You, the Internet celebrity, sound like the head of the world, but will you be cheated?"

"No, mom. Our company is a regular company and we have signed the contract." Explained Nicole.

"Oh, but don't you work in another company? Can you sign the contract on both sides?" Judy was still confused.

Hearing her mother's question, Nicole made up her mind and told her the answer she had prepared in advance.

"Mom, I resigned."

"What?"

"Mom, I'm doing a great job in making cake videos. My salary is several times higher than that of the previous company, and it's much easier than that company. I have free time to work."

Judy was a very simple minded person. In her opinion, only by doing more work could she get more money, which was more reliable. Therefore, when she heard what Nicole said, she was not very happy. Instead, she was worried about Nicole. "Is that okay? Will you be fired if you do light job with so much money? "

Nicole couldn't help laughing, "of course not. What I'm doing now is not hard work, but to share ideas and attitudes."

"…… I don't understand. "

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. Mom, just trust me. I'm your daughter. You know what kind of person I am, don't you? "

Judy touched Nicole's hair and sighed, "of course I know what kind of girl you are. I'm just worried about that your poor family condition forced you to take the wrong path and made you live a life you don't like."

"Mom..." Hearing this, Nicole felt a lump in her throat.

"Really. I don't ask you to make much money. I just hope you can be happy and don't burden too much. "

Nicole felt moved in her heart. She held her mother's hand with a smile and said seriously, "Mom, I like to do this job now. I did it very happily, really."

"That's good. If you like it, that's good."

After a moment of silence, Judy seemed to think of something and asked, "I saw the online saying that the necklace you were wearing is very valuable?"

"Ah That necklace... " Nicole didn't expect her mother to see the news about that necklace. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

"Yes. What about the necklace?"

Nicole told a lie without being noticed, "the necklace was given by the company. I returned it after wearing it. I won the prize. The company tried a lot to make me look better when I was on the stage."

Judy doubted, "really?"

"Of course it's true. Otherwise, how could I get such a precious thing?" Putting her arm around her mother's shoulder, Nicole smiled playfully, "well, do you have any questions about my new job? I've answered all of your questions before."

"Well..." Judy was speechless.

Nicole stood up with a smile, "then you can keep thinking. Let's eat cake first! Mom, I'm telling you, this cake is sold for money now. "

Judy said on purpose, "so you mean you are going to sell it to me?"

"Of course not. How dare I am. It's for you."

"You are becoming more and more sweet." Judy took the cake cut by Nicole and began to eat it. She had never bought cakes herself before, but now she ate the cake that Nicole was good at, showing no

disguise of shock and excitement.

Satisfied with her mother's performance, Nicole raised her eyebrows and smiled, "not bad, right?"

"You are right." Judy quickly finished a piece of cake. When Nicole was about to cut another piece for her, she stopped Nicole. "Keep the rest for Jim. That guy likes eating these things. "

"There are so much left. Jim can't eat them all."

Judy shook her head, "let's eat together when he comes back."

Hearing her mother's words, Nicole put down her hand, which was about to continue cutting the cake, and nodded. "Well, let's eat together after Jim comes back."

"Or Why don't you... " Judy peeked at Nicole's face and made sure that Nicole was in a good mood, so she boldly suggested, "how about you send a piece of cake to Ron? I forgot to ask you just now. Does Ron know what you are doing? "
