Contract Marriage: Let's Make It Real, Mrs. Sterling!-Chapter 308 - 307: Another Social Death Moment

Since a few days ago, Cameron mentioned something, so Mia took note of it. Now, seeing Jensen Sterling in front of her, how could Mia not be surprised?

After Jensen Sterling finished drinking his water, he placed the cup on the nearby table: "The event wasn’t finalized anyway, just declined it if we don’t want to go."

Mia opened her mouth: "..." Then why did you come here?

Ultimately, she didn’t ask, lowered her eyes, and just said oh.

If Cameron knew about this, he’d be furious. Sure, it wasn’t finalized yet, but isn’t that just a matter of saying the last word?

You’ve attended so many events recently, and had so many schedules canceled, don’t you have any idea?

Besides, Mia has only attended "Splendid Stage" twice in the neighboring province, and every time you insisted on going.

Cameron even seriously suspects that his artist has a secret romantic obsession.

If Jensen Sterling finds out about this, Cameron would probably be done for.

Jensen Sterling can’t exactly be called love-obsessed; it’s just that he’s already achieved the best in everything he should in his life, whether it’s acting or other areas.

He doesn’t have anything he’s particularly interested in, so now that he’s met Mia, it’s only natural that his thoughts are almost entirely focused on her.

That’s all!

...

Jensen Sterling lifted his feet and wandered around the room; he hadn’t been inside the last time he came, but the hotel’s pretty nice.

Seeing Jensen Sterling casually looking around, Mia quickly slipped into the bathroom, hurriedly tying her messy hair into a ponytail.

She checked herself in the mirror, making sure everything was fine before slowly stepping out.

As a result, just as she stepped out and saw the scene outside, Mia’s feet immediately felt glued to the spot.

Her mind went blank for an instant.

What’s Jensen Sterling holding on his phone??

Looks like it’s her tablet.

What was the last page she left open on the tablet?

Looks like it was yesterday’s rumors about him.

Mia’s tablet wasn’t set to auto-lock; she hadn’t turned it off, just tossed it on the bed when she went to open the door.

Oh crap!

Mia rarely swears, but just did internally.

Just at this moment, Jensen Sterling lifted his gaze, slowly meeting hers.

Mia: "..."

Mia: "......"

If she could just dig a hole now and bury herself, would she make it in time?

Jensen Sterling saw her standing motionless not far away, reached out a hand to beckon her over: "Come here."

Though Mia wanted to disappear from this room right now, she had no choice. She dragged her heavy feet and slowly walked over.

Jensen Sterling patted the bed next to him: "Come, sit down."

Mia walked over and sat down, but she kept a bit of distance from Jensen Sterling, carefully shifting a little farther away.

Don’t ask why; she didn’t want to face such a socially awkward situation.

Jensen Sterling didn’t miss her small actions, but he was in a good mood now, even curling his lips up in a teasing manner: "Sitting so far, do I have spikes on me?"

Mia quickly shook her head: "No."

"Then come sit a bit closer."

Mia took a deep breath, closing her eyes tightly, accepting her blunder.

But she felt she should explain a bit.

Mia saw Jensen Sterling still scrolling through the comments, then said: "Mr. Sterling, I accidentally stumbled upon this."

"When I saw those comments, I got angry that some were insulting you. I couldn’t stand it, so... I responded a bit."

Jensen Sterling: "What are they saying about me?"

Mia: "..." Alright, most of them were Jensen Sterling’s fans retaliating against others, since his fans are quite fierce.

As Mia was thinking about how to phrase her words, Jensen Sterling spoke up.

"They’re fake."

Mia lifted her eyes, looking into Jensen Sterling’s eyes.

Jensen Sterling chuckled and said: "Those drafts are fake; no rumored girlfriends..."

His tone paused slightly, and then he continued calmly: "But there is a wife."

At his words, Mia’s expression froze a bit, looking at him, momentarily unsure if his last words were intentional or casual.

Jensen Sterling didn’t explain, as if it were just a casual remark, then continued: "Yesterday there was a party, I just happened to bump into her, barely exchanged a few words, that outside photo was of me stepping out to take a call, then she called me over to discuss some business matters between our families. Once the news was out, Cameron handled it, don’t overthink."

Mia bit her lip lightly: "I didn’t overthink. Plus, our agreement states not to interfere with each other’s personal affairs." Her last words were almost a whisper.

Jensen Sterling: "Mm."

"Also, it mentioned no rumors should be exposed," he added faintly.

Mia: ...

Jensen Sterling: "This time it was my fault, thinking since Cameron handled it I didn’t bother further, sorry, but... if I deal with it now, is it still in time?"

Mia opened her mouth: "...Huh?"

Jensen Sterling already took out his phone, logged into his major Weibo account, his long, slender fingers tapping away as he said: "I’ll post a Weibo."

Mia: "...??" That wasn’t what she meant.

Jensen Sterling was quick with editing, finished it in no time, barely half a minute.

Then he handed the phone to Mia: "Here."

Mia blinked, confusedly asking: "For me to check?"

Jensen Sterling: "Help me take a look, in case I post wrongly, Cameron will call to yell."

Mia hesitated a bit, knowing Cameron wouldn’t dare scold Jensen Sterling, but still reached out and took his phone.

Mia lowered her eyes, her thick eyelashes gently fluttered with her movement, casting a shadow as her gaze fell on Jensen Sterling’s phone.

The top Weibo post was very simple, so simple one could count the words at a glance.

It said: "Fake, not acquainted."

Even a forwarded statement from the studio.

Mia stared at those words, her eyes flickering slightly. It was... concise, but her lips curled into a faint smile, eyes sparkling with amusement.

Beside her, Jensen Sterling noticed the young lady’s expression and his lips curled slightly upward.

Previously, he’d never explained himself to anyone, indifferent to what others thought.

But now he wanted to explain to the young lady.

Seeing the young lady had replied to many comments, all about his rumor, with a slightly angry yet adorable tone.

Jensen Sterling felt a part of his heart soften.

By doing this, doesn’t it show her liking for him has grown a bit?

After Jensen Sterling posted the Weibo, the comment section immediately exploded.

[Haha, what did I say? This is definitely some people’s hype, my hubby wouldn’t be involved with Chloe Young.]

[Seeing this Weibo suddenly made me feel relieved.]

[This is Jensen Sterling’s first clarification post, so for a certain Chloe, you’re really lucky.]

[Those who said maybe there’s something between them just not public, I wonder if your face hurts.]

[You know, some people’s fame isn’t easy to latch onto.]
