Chapter 456\u00a0<\/p>\n
Fans of Field of Lari, having learned that their idol would be revealing herself at the event, had come from all over the country. They gathered outside the restaurant, holding up glowing signs that read, \u201cFIELD OF LARI, YOU\u2019RE THE BEST.\u201d They couldn\u2019t get in, but they were content to stand watch from\u00a0<\/p>\n
the entrance.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Leopold was there too.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He didn\u2019t dare approach Larissa directly, but he couldn\u2019t stay away. Seeing the crowd of fans cheering for his sister filled him with a swell of pride. Her popularity was easily on par with his own.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Suddenly, he overheard a conversation from three men standing nearby.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHonestly, this Field of Lari is just an online author, but she sure acts like a big shot, holding a whole press conference just to sell the rights to one book.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI heard her editor handled the rights for her first three books. She never showed her face, just\u00a0<\/p>\n
collected the checks.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you think Field of Lari is a man or a woman?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cProbably a woman. The protagonist is female.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI bet it\u2019s a man. \u2018Heaven\u2019s Will\u2018 is published on a female\u2013oriented site, but the political intrigue, the military strategy\u2026 only a man could write with that kind of scope. Female authors just write about romance. Their stories are so\u2026 small.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGood point. It\u2019s probably a man writing for a female audience. An easy way to dominate the market.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Leopold, who had been blending in with the fans, couldn\u2019t take it anymore. He turned to the three men, his voice cold. \u201cField of Lari is a woman.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
And she was his sister.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The three men looked at him. He was wearing a baseball cap and a mask, his face obscured. \u201cHow would you know?\u201d one of them challenged. \u201cDo you know her?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI do,\u201d Leopold said, but he didn\u2019t reveal her name.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The men remained unconvinced.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cA female author, huh? She probably hired a ghostwriter.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI just don\u2019t believe a woman could write with that kind of depth.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cExactly. I\u2019ve read countless novels, and female authors just can\u2019t write good political thrillers.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Leopold snorted. \u201cAnd you three, you\u2019re men. Could you write a book like \u2018Heaven\u2019s Will\u2018?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
When they didn\u2019t answer, he pressed on. \u201cYou\u2019re all a bunch of nobodies, with nothing to your names, yet you\u2019re so proud of your own gender. It\u2019s pathetic.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re not writers!\u201d one of them shot back. \u201cDo you have to be a chef to review a restaurant?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cExactly! Who do you think you are, talking down to us like that?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chapter 456\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cJust another brainless fanboy.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The old Leopold would have had them on the ground by now, but things were different. He didn\u2019t want to cause any trouble for Larissa, so he simply dismissed them as the clowns they were and turned\u00a0<\/p>\n
away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A few of Field of Lari\u2019s female fans had witnessed the exchange. \u201cHey,\u201d one of them whispered to her. friend, \u201cdoesn\u2019t his voice sound a lot like that new singer, Leopold?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt kind of does.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Noticing their stares, Leopold pulled the brim of his cap down lower.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Fortunately, their attention was quickly diverted.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWow! Is that Lucius Lincoln of Regal City?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is! He\u2019s so handsome. And the woman with him in the mask, I think that\u2019s the superstar, Livia.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt looks like Mr. Lincoln is determined to get the rights to this book for his fianc\u00e9e.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
