69.93% Revenge Of The Cannon Fodder Villainess / Chapter 100: Variety Show (2)

Kapitel 100: Variety Show (2)

Once Kaiser left, Valentina quickly ate her breakfast before going upstairs and searching for the room Kaiser mentioned. Spotting a door that had the letters' Valentina's Dressing Room' spelled out in glittering letters, she opened the door with a sense of dread and was immediately blinded.

The room was even larger than the suite she currently stayed in, and It honestly looked like a set from a movie with a large white vanity with gleaming lights, a cozy plush chair, and a large wall covered in floor-to-ceiling shelves full of a variety of purses and shoes. The other sections of the room were filled with built-in shelving and drawers, which were full of clothes of various styles, accessories, and more. 

As she looked through the clothing and accessories, she saw brands like Hermes, Chanel, Gucci, Loro Piana, Valentino, and more she had never heard of before; she immediately wanted to go wash her hands and put on some gloves. 

When she opened some of the drawers, she saw rows and rows of jewelry that blinded her as they shone in the light. Gold, silver, and platinum watches embedded with jewels of all colors, necklaces, rings, bracelets, and anklets of various designs. There were multiple drawers filled with all types of makeup and skin care products. Some of the drawers even had pajamas, underwear, and lingerie in her size.

Seeing everything, she could only blink in shock.

What was going on? This was more than just a few things; this was a whole entire department store in the room!

Knock. Knock.

As she opened the door, she saw Kaiser's smug face.

"Kaiser, what is this?"

"Are you feeling my sincerity yet? I've been having them slowly build it for a while, and Lia just finished stocking it up once you left for your premier. Since you didn't want to spend my money, I decided to spend it for you. None of it is returnable as the tags are ripped off, everything is engraved or monogrammed, and the receipt has been burned, so feel free to wear it, trash it, or donate it as you wish. What do you think? Do you like it?"

Valentina: "..." 

You're a divine waste of money.

Not responding, she quickly shut the door in his face, her face turning red as she heard his laughter. How the hell had he gotten this done? She stayed home all day and hadn't heard a single sound or seen a single person work on it!

Sighing to herself, she quickly changed into an orange shirt, a matching navy jacket with orange paneling, and matching navy leggings. Putting on the closest matching sneakers she could find, she quickly added matching orange clips to hold her wild curls back before putting on a simple gold necklace and bracelet. After adding some lip gloss, she came out, grabbed the medical files given to her by the doctor, and went to Kaiser's office.

The door was open, and she saw Kaiser and Luca fiddling around with a camera and some ring lights hooked to the table. Seeing her enter, Luca quickly abandoned Kaiser, yelling, "Mommy!"

"Luca say Auntie."

"No!"

Seeing the firm refusal on his little face, she turned to look at Kaiser, who only snickered before commenting, "I like your outfit, very sporty. Now come sit. Do you have your phone?"

"Yes, I have it." As she walked over behind the desk, squeezing past Kaiser, she saw him glance from her face to her butt while his hand twitched.

Turning red, she quickly sat down on the office chair before hissing at him, "Don't even try it."

"Too bad. Next time if you let me." He winked at her before continuing to adjust the camera.

"Now, how do I set this up?" Valentina murmured to herself as she was fiddling with her phone camera while trying to figure out the elaborate setup so she could start the live.

"Here. Make sure you're logged onto the laptop and we'll stream from there. You can use your phone to you can read comments as they come or the laptop. The camera is also connected, so as long as you look ahead, you should be fine. Turn on 'Do not Disturb', and you should be good to go."

"Thank you again for letting me use your office, Kaiser, and setting this up. I appreciate it." Valentina gave Kaiser a wide smile before turning to Luca.

"And thank you, my little nugget, for letting me use your laptop."

"Of course, mommy." He ran over with his hands held out to her.

"Say Auntie Luca." Valentina sighed, but seeing his puppy dog eyes, she gave him a hug before glaring at Kaiser behind Luca's back.

"Alright, Luca, come on. Valentina needs to work, so we need to go and be quiet, okay? Wish her good luck, and let's go."

"Okay. Bye, mommy. Good luck." After reluctantly going into Kaiser's arms, the door shut behind the two of them, and she sighed with relief.

She and Luca really needed to talk. She wondered if she could bribe him with snacks so he would revert back to calling her auntie. If not, she really needed to speak with his psychiatrist.

Calming herself down, she hesitantly started the live. Although she had quite a few followers, she was still a bit nervous as to whether any of them would actually bother to join and watch her.

As the camera began streaming, and she saw her face and body appear on the laptop, she gave her brightest smile and began talking.

"Hello, everyone. Thank you for joining my impromptu live today. I'm here to give an update on the situation that happened previously and answer some questions you may have for me."

As the comments began streaming in, she pulled the laptop closer and began trying to answer them one by one.

 - Julliexxx: How are you doing? I saw the fall. Did you go to the hospital? What did they say?

"Hi Julliexxx I'm doing well thank you. The hospital released me with a clean bill of health and just told me to rest for a couple of days while taking some medicine."

- Bysstander222: did you release the video? Why didn't you speak up?

"Did I have anything to do with the video being released? No, I found out along with everybody else. As for speaking up, I was hospitalized and was on my way home, so I didn't have a chance to say anything yet."

- AaliyahStanForever: Aaliyah is an angel. What did you say to her that caused her to push you?

"Hi AaliyahStanForever. I don't believe I said anything in particular to Aaliyah that warranted her pushing me down the stairs. Even if she was offended, I don't believe that violence is the answer to anything. We're not children and should be able to talk it out."

"Did I have fake blood pills in my mouth? No, I did not. Unfortunately, all the blood was real and manufactured in my body." Valentina replied dryly.

"Did I pay Aaliyah for the dry cleaning of her custom Chanel dress? No, I did not, as she didn't send me a bill. If she would like me to do so, I'm willing as long as she also does the same for my clothes,"

"Did I pay her hospital bill? Of course not. However, if she wants me to, I would recommend we both combine and split our hospital bills as well since we both got injured. I also believe that Black Rock will bear the cost as they are a generous agency who won't penalize their artists for an accident." 

"Are Aaliyah and I enemies? Absolutely not. I am not enemies with anyone and, in fact, would like to ask her if she hates me."

"What were we talking about? It's between Aaliyah and me. I'm willing to share the contents of the conversation as long as she gives her consent. I know the recording had no audio, but I'm willing to follow up with the building if Aaliyah agrees to it." Valentina gave a mischievous smile.

"Do I feel bad since I am causing another film delay? I have spoken to the director and let him know that I am ready to go and in full health. Any delays at this point are at the director's discretion."

As more and more people began joining the live and questioning her about the incident, she saw three names that made her swallow her words temporarily.

Fallen Angels has joined the live.

Shawn has joined the live.

Rio has joined the live.

As those three names appeared, the comments went wild, and the number of people viewing the live instantly quadrupled. The comments were so many that it began scrolling up faster than she could read them. All she could see were heart eyes and confessions of love that disappeared in a moment, quickly replaced by more of the same. 

The names she saw weren't even regular ones anymore; they all had Rio, Shawn, fallen angels, or demonic pillars somehow mixed in them.

"Please slow down in the comments, I can't read so fast." Valentina tried to calm the commenters down in hopes of regaining the previous calm.

It seemed to work for a bit as the comments slowed in response, but then a line appeared that drove the fans into a frenzy.

- Rio: Hey Val, how are you doing? Feeling better?

*Kaiser tryna smack that ass 😂*

Kapitel 101: Variety Show (3)

It seemed to work for a bit as the comments slowed in response, but then a line appeared that drove the fans into a frenzy.

- Rio: Hey Val, how are you doing? Feeling better? That tumble looked pretty bad. What did the hospital say? Do you have the report?

Sighing internally, Valentina put on a fake smile and held the report out, "Hi Rio, I'm good. Feeling much better. I do have the report here that I got from the hospital. Long story short, there are just some bruises and nothing more serious than that. I just need to rest, and I'll be good to go. How have you been, and hello to Senior Shawn as well."

- Shawn: Hey! Why is Rio just Rio, and I'm senior Shawn?! You know he's older than me! Don't be biased, Valentina! 😠

Seeing the angry emoji, Valentina burst out laughing, and seeing the image of a beauty giggling happily, the entire comment section froze before exploding.

- Beautiful

- My god, she's gorgeous

- Lick lick lick

- I see why they made her an angel; even looking at her skin in 4k HD, there are no pores in sight. I want whatever makeup she uses!

- Makeup??? Up above, haven't you seen her wiping her face? Her hands are clear! No makeup in sight!

- AI Editing?

- On a live? Grow up!

Ignoring the argument breaking out in the comment section, Valentina answered Shawn. "My bad, Shawn. How have you been?"

- Shawn: Busy prepping for our new album and doing some promo. Rio and I are so tired we haven't been able to sleep.

"Make sure you get some rest and eat your meals. Taking care of your body is the most important thing!"

- Shawn: Same to you, Valentina. That fall looked dangerous. I'm glad you're doing fine. Sorry that you had to go through that. I hope the conflict gets resolved and you get an apology.

"Aww. Thanks for caring." Valentina smiled at his caring words. As for getting an apology from Aaliyah, she was sure that would never happen.

Shawn's comment spawned a new line of questioning about her and Aaliyah's relationship, but she dutifully ignored them as another question caught her eye.

- Will the Fallen Angel's new album be a continuation of the old one? The ending of 'Bring Me to Life' was so sad! I want my Demon Rio and Angel Valentina to have a happy ending!

"Uhm, I can't speak on any details about their album since I truly don't know, but I'm sure you can ask Rio or Shawn on their socials about it." Valentina tried to deflect the question, but it seemed to invite a swarm of questions and comments as the 72 demonic pillars made their presence known.

- Stay away from Rio, you social climbing hussy!

- Is it bad that I want to see them together? The vibe between them is so cute.

- Rio, I love you!!!!

- Marry me.

- 🚂 🚂 🚂 

- Why are you so close? It's my first time seeing my baby Rio joining someone else's live.

- Are you and Rio dating?

- Are you and Shawn dating?

"No! Absolutely not! We are not dating! We are simply friends." Valentina vehemently denied it while shaking her head rapidly.

- Is that a lie?

- Sounds sus.

- Why are you so close and friendly?

- Why was she giggling?

- Smile is looking a bit too bright there, Val.

- Did you notice she only called Shawn Senior and not Rio? Suspicious. I have to investigate.

 - +1

 - +1

 - +1

"I assure you it's the truth. I am currently not dating anyone. As for Rio and Shawn, please ask them that yourself." She wasn't lying. It was technically true since she and Kaiser weren't dating.

- Rio: We're not dating. Please be kind. Next topic.

As Rio's message came across, the comments seemed to calm down a little, and Valentina couldn't help but wish for him to hurry up and leave. Her original topic had been derailed, and now it was just all about the Fallen Angels.

- Are there any bloopers from the MV? Or bts? Especially between Valentina and Rio and Shawn and Yuri? We want to see them!

- +1. I want to see more romantic scenes.

- Are there any scenes with Rio taking his shirt off?

- Valentina, how did you not fall in those heels?

Seeing the last one, Valentina hid a smile. She had fallen and had to be carried, but they would never see it if she had her way. As for the other questions?

"I'm not sure. You'll have to ask Rio or Shawn about that." Valentina calmly replied. 

The next couple rounds of questions continued to be about The Fallen Angel's music videos and hidden scenes and easter eggs, and just as she wanted to end her life after repeating for the thousandth time that she had no idea, someone made a suggestion.

- Rather than asking Valentina, why don't all four of them be on a variety show together to answer some questions? We want to see you all interact since the chemistry seemed so good on camera.

- The chemistry was so good; I've never seen my dark Prince Rio vibe with another woman so nicely. And dark Shawn? My heartttt

- +1

- Up above, although my heart hurts because he is my husband, I'm willing to allow concubines if I can see his sweet face become emotional once again

- He's actually married to me, but I guess I can share because the chemistry between you two was too good to be true. If you told me you were in a relationship, I would believe it.

- +1

- +1

- Evil Shawn was sexy ngl. He can betray me any day

- Am I sick for enjoying Rio's tortured look?

- No. I also want to be the star-crossed angel to his demon and cause him emotional damage.

Valentina: "..."

Chemistry? Relationship? What were these crazy fans talking about??

"Uhm, I don't know about that. I was only a small-time actress in the music video, and it's very nontraditional to do something like that once our contract is over. I'm sure Rio and Shawn are quite busy as well…" As Valentina started to deflect again, comments rapidly filled up, encouraging her to join the two in a variety show of some kind, and she had to control her expression to maintain her smile.

Although she had a task to complete, she was already mentally exhausted from dealing with Rio's fans and their delusions. She could only imagine how much worse it would be if she went on the show.

Unfortunately, she was destined to be disappointed.

Rio: Good idea. I'm looking forward to reuniting with such a great cast. We can treat it like a promo since it's submitted as a short film to awards.

Shawn: I'm down; let's bring the gang back together.

Fallen Angels: Let's set it up. My people will contact your people, Valentina. See you soon.

Rio has left the live.

Shawn has left the live.

Fallen Angels has left the live.

Seeing the stream of heart eyes as they left, Valentina blinked before laughing with joy as they were finally gone.

"Well, thank you to the Fallen Angels for joining. Any other questions before I leave?"

 Thankfully, the questions took on a normal tone with Rio and Shawn's departure.

"My favorite junk food for dinner? I really enjoy chicken wings. The spicier, the better."

"What do I do during the day? Usually, I read scripts to practice acting; I try to take a walk daily, I play video games every now and then, and I read novels occasionally to pass the time."

As she got comfortable on the chair, propping her feet up as she answered questions, the tone of the comments began to change.

- Hey, wait, that chair looks familiar. Isn't that the Aresline Xten chair?

- Up above. I looked it up, and you're absolutely correct. That chair is worth 1.6 million dollars. Crazy!

- Valentina, where did you get the chair from?

- Valentina, are you from a rich family? 

- Valentina, are you a nepo baby?

"I am not a nepo baby." She didn't realize that the things in Kaiser's office were of such high quality, although she should have expected it.

- Lies. Look at the background behind her. That's not a backdrop; that's an estate. Look at the garden and the fountain! It's crazy!

- Valentina, who's house is that? I thought you were a poor artist.

"I am a poor artist," she chuckled before continuing, "I came to visit a friend. This is their house and the stuff I'm using. Look, this is my personal phone. It's an older model." She held her cell phone up for them to see.

- Pfft. Don't believe her, look at the clothes she's wearing. That's a limited-edition ad*das x P*kémon collab. If you're not a big fashion brand or influencer, you couldn't even sniff of getting it. And those shoes are the Jordan 1 Retro Knicks. It is still sold out to this day.

- Up above correct. Also, look at the clips in her hair. Those are high-quality Swarovski crystals, and the centerpiece is an actual diamond. Source - I'm a jeweler

- And I'm your mom. Stop lying.

- You're talking about crystals; I'm still stuck on the 1.6-MILLION-dollar chair!!

- Has anyone looked at the laptop? That's the MSI GT77. It starts at 12k! And she has it there covered in kiddy stickers!

- Nepo baby unlocked

- Nepo baby confirmed

-Nepo baby revealed.

Valentina couldn't help but laugh as she read the comments.

Nepo baby?

She wasn't a nepo baby. If she was, would she have to be working this hard? Laughing to herself, she didn't bother denying it anymore and skipped past and continued reading comments.

- Where did you get the stickers? I see a*imal cr*ssing, p*kemon, minecrafft, splat**n, mar*o. Valentina, are you secretly a gamer?

- no way she's this pretty, an actress, and secretly a gamer. What a bot

- bot confirmed

- NPC

- She's an NPC fr

I bet she put those up to look cool and bought them of T*mu

"The laptop is owned by my friend Kid, who is like a little nephew to me. I wouldn't say I'm a gamer, but I do play video games every now and then. Look, I even have calluses on my hands." She wiggled her fingers.

More correctly, she accompanied Luca in playing games throughout her stay when he came to her. Throughout her time here, she had played so many games her fingers had actually developed calluses from pressing the controllers made to fit Luca's small hands. 

Thankfully, she had gotten decent and could win one out of every 2 or 3 games, which would sound impressive if she wasn't playing against a literal four-year-old. Still, she was proud of her improvement, especially when the little nugget laughed happily.

- What do you play, Valentina?

- What's your favorite game and system?

"My favorite game? My little nephew is partial to n*ntendo when I play with him, so I really like animal cr*ssing and s*per sm*sh br*s. I'm not too bad at M*rio K*rt either."

- Who do you main in Smash Valentina?

"Main?" she titled her head and asked in confusion at the term.

- See. She's a bot. She doesn't even know the terms.

-Maybe she's a casual.

- Main is your main character. Who's your favorite character to use?

"Favorite character in Smash? Zero-Suit Samus, Ness, and Lucas, of course. Back throws for the world. Oh, I also like Princess Peach and Isabelle. I like their character design and move sets quite a lot, especially Isabelle. Who knew throwing somebody with a butterfly net or fishing rod and smashing them with a radish or a stop sign could be so fun." Valentina responded with a laugh, her green eyes sparkling as she imagined the scene.

The comments momentarily paused as if people were stunned by the sight, and then they began streaming in rapidly.

- How do you know that Valentina? Did you look it up?

- Yo. Do you actually play?

- Bffr!

- Be honest. You play fr?

- Aint no way!!

- Fraud!

- You looked it up, didn't you? Show me your hands! Where's your phone?

"I did not look it up."

- Fake. She's a nepo baby.

- She definitely looked it up, there's no way she plays

- Nah, she plays for real.

- She's calling out moves irl. Bro, she plays. Ask her another question.

As the comments began grilling her about the details of the game stickers on Luca's laptop, she laughingly answered each one while wondering how she had gotten on this topic. As the time she had been on the live slowly approached two hours, she decided to end it.

"Thank you all so much for chatting with me today. I'll talk to my team about possible streaming gameplay, and please tune in when I join the Fallen Angels on a variety show. Thanks again. I love you all. Bye!"

After making sure the camera was off, she logged off, and everything was disconnected. She sighed in relief.

What an interesting live. Apart from the few people who asked about her injuries in the beginning, most of the questions were about the Fallen Angels and then gaming, which was an odd turn of events. 

Not a single one about her acting and her roles. Still, as long as people were happy, she supposed it was fine. 

After creating a post thanking people for joining and photos of her medical report, she decided to go back to her room to call Rio and Director Loewe. She needed to figure out the filming schedule and plan for the variety show she had been roped into doing.
