Contract Marriage: Let's Make It Real, Mrs. Sterling!-Chapter 321 - 319: Thinking About Responsibility

[Whoa, is Mia feeling shy? Her whole ear is red.]

The host immediately noticed this comment, paused for a moment, then turned to Mia Sutton with a smile and said, "Ms. Sutton, there’s an interesting comment here."

Mia Sutton looked puzzled, "Huh?"

"It asks if you’re feeling shy, even your ears are red,"

Mia Sutton: "..."

With a slightly bewildered look, she unconsciously reached up to touch her ear. Is it red?

Comment: [Hahaha, Mia touching her own ear is just too cute.]

[Can’t help it, who can resist Mr. Sterling?]

[Thank you, I’m shipping this again, I’m so happy.]

[Ladies, after the host mentioned it, our Mr. Sterling also glanced at Mia Sutton’s earlobe, those who know, know~]

[Got it!]

[Got it...]

[Got it...!!!]

......

After this segment ended, it was time for their duet, singing the theme song from the show, and that concluded the entire after-sales event.

But even after the event ended, the enthusiasm of the netizens did not fade, especially the CP fans of Mia Sutton and Jensen Sterling, who were utterly ecstatic by now.

A huge batch of videos and fanfics appeared in the super topics, the speed of content creation was astonishing, and everyone was delightfully immersed in their shipping.

Afterwards, Mia Sutton returned to her car, just about to message Jensen Sterling to ask where he was, when the car door was opened from the outside, and the man bent down to sit inside.

Mia Sutton quietly closed the chat window and put down her phone.

The car that brought Mia over today was from the company; the space wasn’t large, but it was certainly enough for two people in the back seat.

But...

Despite there being enough space, the two of them sat very close, their shoulders together, leaving a large open space on the other side.

Needless to say about legroom, Mia was only occupying a narrow space, while Jensen sat there, his legs slightly apart, almost touching hers.

Mia blinked repeatedly, softly licked her lips.

The heat that had faded from her face seemed to be making a comeback.

Just as she was about to speak.

A deep voice slowly emerged, Jensen Sterling: "How are your parents?"

Mia Sutton’s brain momentarily didn’t catch up, her mouth opened: "Ah...?"

Once she realized, she nodded: "Oh, they’re well. My dad’s at the company every day, my mom’s at home, and occasionally they go traveling together..." Mia trailed off, having said quite a few things intermittently.

Until Jensen Sterling spoke again, "Then you’ll be coming back?"

Mia paused, the topic changed too quickly, she hadn’t caught up.

"Now you don’t feel uncomfortable anymore?"

Mia stopped talking, her eyes flashed slightly, feeling a bit guilty: "I never felt uncomfortable in the first place, I just missed them, so I went back to visit."

Then explained, "I was originally planning to come back yesterday, but someone came home unexpectedly."

While she talked, Mia reached up to rub her own hair.

She definitely could not admit it was because she had bitten someone’s lip and felt embarrassed to run away.

Did she have no pride?

Fortunately, Jensen Sterling didn’t continue to ask, just sat there, thinking about something unknown.

Mia tilted her head to look at Jensen, pressed her lips together, and after a moment, slowly curved her eyes.

Since coming to terms with it, Mia had always wanted to see Jensen; as it turns out, the feeling others described of not seeing someone for a day is like three years really does exist.

Jensen Sterling noticed her gaze, turned his head to look at Mia Sutton: "What are you looking at?" 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Mia smiled brightly, a hint of mischief gleaming in her eyes, and answered very honestly: "Looking at you, you look handsome."

"If you like it, look a little longer." Jensen had a faint, barely noticeable smile.

Mia Sutton: "..."

Is this being flirted back after trying to flirt?

Mia Sutton: Her face probably can’t match someone else’s.

...

Leo, who was driving in the front: "..."

Experienced yet another hit from the unbearable sweetness of this couple’s antics.

He’s been enduring these lovebirds for a while, yet he’s still single himself, so tragic.

...

Soon, the car drove into the residential complex, and after the two of them got out of the car, Leo drove off.

Mia Sutton and Jensen Sterling entered the house together.

Jensen noticed that as Mia got out of the car, her eyes were darting around, thinking about something else.

Jensen thought she was about to say something, but she didn’t.

Mia Sutton lowered her gaze slightly, continually pondering whether to ask Jensen if the person he liked was her.

This question had been on her mind since that night, but she hadn’t figured out the right way to ask.

She rehearsed it in her mind countless times, only to dismiss each version one after another.

Although her heart told her the answer should be yes, she still felt a tinge of uncertainty.

Mia suddenly reached up and rubbed her hair, feeling frustrated.

After a while, Jensen Sterling sat on the sofa, reached out, and gently held her wrist, making Mia instantly feel a warmth in her wrist as she looked up at him.

Jensen Sterling quietly gazed at Mia, his voice deep and soft: "Mia..."

Mia instinctively responded, "Hmm?"

"On stage, when the host mentioned your ears were red, what were you thinking about?"

Mia Sutton: "..." She remained silent for two seconds, her gaze wandering.

What was she thinking about back then?

Raising her eyes, her gaze cautiously moved once again to the spot on Jensen’s lip, where she had bitten, almost healed now, only faint traces visible upon close inspection.

Jensen’s gaze darkened significantly, his voice turned hoarse: "Mia, isn’t there something we haven’t discussed?"

Mia Sutton: "What... what thing?"

Jensen’s thumb lightly caressed her slender wrist: "Responsibility."

Mia Sutton: "...??"

Responsibility? Is it the meaning she thinks it is?

She, a literature major, is starting to doubt her own translation skills now.

Jensen gestured to the spot on his lips and slowly said, "Don’t you want to take responsibility?"

Mia followed his motion and once again her eyes fell on the spot she had bitten.

Enlightenment!

"I’ll take responsibility, Mr. Sterling."

At this moment, her mind was running swiftly, words flowing out like beans, but her tone was very serious.

She now believed she hadn’t misunderstood Jensen’s meaning, and his implication of being like other couples was in line with her thoughts.

At this thought, Mia promptly smiled, didn’t even need Jensen to pull her over, she obediently moved next to him, snuggled up beside him.

Her beautiful eyes seemed to flash with a radiant gleam, and she grinned mischievously, "Mr. Sterling, since I’m going to take responsibility, shouldn’t you answer a question for me too?"

Jensen Sterling let out a small laugh: "Hmm, go ahead."

Mia Sutton: "Mr. Sterling, do you like me?"
