SIGNING IN: BEING SHOWERED BY HEAVENLY BLESSINGS FOR FIVE YEARS-Chapter 829 - 827: SPORTS EVENT 3

A young woman seated a few seats away from the boys rolled her eyes inwardly as she listened to that unbelievable conversation before whispering in the ears of the sister sitting next to her. "Do you think that what the cousins are saying is true?"

The female cousin chuckled mockingly as she looked at the boys and responded, "They are just jealous. They can’t even surpass a woman who popped out of nowhere. And now they dare to speak something like that! Unbelievable!"

She was envious of Diamond. After all, they were all women, and yet Diamond’s luck was better than hers. A year ago, she didn’t even know that such a person existed and yet from nowhere, Diamond made a shocking appearance and ever since then, her popularity has never diminished.

Unlike other females who rise to the top because of the fame brought by men, Diamond is different. She simply slapped money on people and she had never stopped.

She was loaded, her sources of money very mysterious, and yet none of the law enforcement agencies were after her. What did that mean to them?

Either her businesses were very legal or her backer was not that simple. However, just looking at how confident Diamond was, she didn’t seem to have a backer. And that was something that gnawed on people. Even herself included. After all, without the name Mainley, those people who fawn over her. Wouldn’t they even give her a look if she wasn’t named that?

These family members all had different thoughts and during that process, Diamond and Tiana also arrived.

Upon arrival, Tiana took Diamond to her grandfather and Diamond was honored to meet such a man. After all, unlike her, who had a cheat when she entered the industry, this man struggled hard to be where he was. How could she not be in awe?

As soon as the old man saw Diamond, he finally understood all the noise that the others had been making. She was a beautiful girl and something about her truly was exceptional.

"Grandpa, meet Diamond. A friend of mine," Tiana introduced Diamond smilingly, her heart racing wondering how he would react now that he had seen the person he had been itching to see for a while now.

Chairman Mainley’s eyes wrinkled as he looked at Diamond with a smile and upon seeing the smile on Diamond’s face, he found her pleasing to the eye. There was no sign of fear, flattery or the kind that he was used to seeing. Instead, the other party was very calm and looked at him as if she were facing a relative.

How long had it been since he had been looked at that way?

"Diamond, it’s a pleasure to meet you," he said smilingly as he stretched his hand towards her.

Diamond shook hands with him as she responded, "The pleasure is all mine, Chairman Mainley."

Chairman Mainley smiled as he pulled his hand away and said to her, "Just call me Grandpa like Tiana does!" softening his stance.

Diamond’s smile widened when she heard that and found the old man very pleasant to look at.

While the two were getting very acquainted, the relatives were in shock upon seeing how they were interacting.

The chairman even had Diamond sit next to him and they began to indulge in a merry chat revolving around business. It was a sight to see.

While the sports event was ongoing, online, Andrea didn’t forget the assignment that he was given.

Those who followed Diamond received notification of a broadcast and upon clicking on the broadcasts, Diamond did not welcome them. However, there were interesting programs playing which kept everyone smiling and provided a channel for the fans to interact on a global scale.

For example, Andrea compiled a lot of content. From the moment Diamond became popular online, snippets of her popular broadcasts, her singing, dancing and the like.

During breaks, her songs would play, providing subtitles for those who didn’t understand.

The fans who hadn’t seen Diamond in a long time were very much entertained. Which was the main goal that Diamond wanted to achieve.

At the same time, the programs once discussed previously were also promoted and the time set. That way, the fans would know when to check the account if they wanted to watch it LIVE.

With that happening online, back to the sports event. Diamond didn’t stop enjoying herself simply because she was having a chat with the old man.

Before the sports started, Diamond excused herself briefly as she went to change. She was going to participate later. So, she decided to change in advance.

As soon as she returned from changing, all eyes were simply on her, but that couldn’t be helped. Knowing that there would be people, she deliberately wore a tracksuit that could be taken off later.

After returning to the tent, she resumed her conversation with the old man.

"So, what events have you signed for? Won’t you be tired?" Chairman Mainley asked worriedly.

After knowing Diamond for a while, he liked her so much. He didn’t want to see her tiring herself when she could just spend that time talking to him.

Diamond chuckled heartily when she heard that and responded to him, "Grandpa, I am very strong. You know I run every morning without fail. Moreover, I broke the marathon record and even received calls from the national team. How can I be tired?" her tone filled with bragging, which made the grandchildren very sour.

But who made Diamond capable?

When Chairman Mainley heard that, he looked at Diamond with amazement, obviously surprised by this piece of news. He turned his head to look at Tiana, who was listening to the conversation, and asked for confirmation, "Child, is that true?"

Tiana chuckled helplessly when she heard that. How come the way her grandpa talked to them was so different? However, she could only think about that in her mind but didn’t dare utter a single word.

Nonetheless, she responded to his question. "Yes, that’s true, Grandpa. This will be nothing to her."

When he heard that, he sighed relievedly before he started nagging.

Diamond entertained the old man, understanding that he was worried and probably also wanted to bring them closer. Which she didn’t mind. Moreover, the old man didn’t show any malicious intentions towards her as of now, so she didn’t mind enjoying this moment.

Diamond had registered for short-distance running and cycling. So, whenever it was time for her to participate, she would leave the main tent and participate sincerely. Of course, she wasn’t one to accept defeat easily. Moreover, the thrill of competition was simply too alluring for her. She failed to hold herself back.

As a result, whenever she was participating, Tiana was at a loss as she watched her grandfather literally on his feet cheering for Diamond with a grin on his face.

Her grandfather was truly genuine and wasn’t faking it. She felt complicated, to be honest. However, she also understood that there was something about Diamond that made the old man feel comfortable.

Or was it because Diamond was fearless, which made the way she approached the old man different from them who grew up under his guidance?

Anyway, it was great that Diamond wasn’t part of her family. There was no need to fear her taking what belonged to them.

Diamond didn’t disappoint as she came out on the top every single time she went to participate.

Diamond herself was over the moon, filled with a sense of excitement she couldn’t control. Especially after she finished cycling.

As she joined Tiana and the others, she clicked her tongue in excitement as she said, "I might have fallen in love with cycling. I will buy my own bicycle. Which company made those bicycles?" before asking curiously Tiana, who was by her side.

Tiana nearly choked when she heard that, but thinking that the person who was talking was Diamond, she accepted that pretty quickly.

"If you like the bicycle, then you don’t have to look far. It’s a brand of ours," she happily promoted the family’s brand.

Diamond’s eyes brightened as she looked at Tiana, finding her glowing at the moment. The bicycle was very good. It was light and easy to cycle. On top of that, she felt very balanced when she was sitting on top of it. It reminded her of her cars. Very stable and fast to use.

"If you like it, how about I send you one? No need to buy it!" Tiana suggested after she finished her promotion, but before Diamond could respond, her grandfather spoke first.

"Let’s make her an ambassador if she wants. After all, I believe that once she is seen using our bikes, the sales would spike." The old man didn’t forget the reports on PACE sportswear when he said that.

If they were to just give her a bike for free and leave it at that, it would look more like taking advantage. So, it was better to keep business and pleasure separate.

Diamond nodded to that. After all, she has a large family to feed now with the money she earns from endorsement and the like. So, the idea of getting another endorsement did not repulse her.

With that matter brought up, the discussions began and since Ivy wasn’t with her at the moment, Diamond couldn’t just agree to anything. So, she waived for the matter to be discussed further with the brand representatives and Ivy.

No one objected to that, and the matter of the endorsement ended on a beautiful note.
