CHAPTER 101: CALLING OUT “BROTHER”

Just as she was about to hang up, the call connected on the other side.

A man’s voice came through the phone, calm, with a hint of warmth: "Hello, what’s up?"

Since Mia Sutton wasn’t holding her phone too far, her shirt’s collar still had a mic attached, and the man’s voice was transmitted clearly to everyone present, including the hundreds of thousands of viewers in the livestream room.

Staff: "..."

Man, warmth—these two words flashed through their minds.

Did they mess up?!!

Could it really be her boyfriend or something?!

The viewers in the livestream room were going crazy: "!!!"

Actually, the number of fans in the livestream room wasn’t particularly high, most of them were just passersby.

Hearing the voice made it feel like they stumbled upon a huge piece of gossip, especially when considering Mia Sutton’s notes, fifty million?!

After piecing things together in their minds, they came to a conclusion: isn’t this her sugar daddy?

No matter how others reacted, Mia Sutton’s fingers holding the phone were already stiff.

He answered?!

How did that happen...

Her brain was rapidly spinning, trying to figure out how to fix the situation.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Jensen Sterling had been busy and went to the study, so he didn’t see the part of Mia Sutton’s livestream.

Seeing that the other side was silent, he asked again: "What’s going on, is the livestream over? I..."

Just as he was about to say something else, Mia Sutton urgently shouted in a low voice, "Brother!"

Jensen Sterling paused for a moment on the stairs, and a few seconds later, Mia Sutton heard the person on the other side chuckle.

In a voice slightly lower than usual, he said, "What’s this sudden ’brother’ about? Do you need something? Normally, you just call me by my name." Jensen said, continuing down the stairs.

Hearing this, Mia Sutton felt a bit relieved and then looked at the staff, giving them a mental reminder. She thought for a moment, then spoke: "Oh, nothing, just chatting with a girlfriend. She said she has a pesky younger brother who only knows how to argue with her all day long, having a brother is better, a brother can protect and care for me, spoil me, I just like that kind of brother."

"Yeah, so?" The person on the other side responded smoothly.

"I just wanted to express my fondness for you." The girl said sweetly.

Mia Sutton squeezed the phone, blinking, and thought, well, since Mr. Jensen is playing along, it means he’s guessed the situation and should know how to respond, right?

But then she heard the other side chuckle lightly and say, "Okay, got it."

Mia Sutton: "..."

That’s it? Did he not get what I meant?

[Hahaha, trying to butter someone up only to find out they didn’t get it.]

[’Got it’ works, huh!]

Seeing this, Mia Sutton thought she needed to be more explicit, so she feigned annoyance and said: "Do you not love me anymore!"

This time, the person on the other side cooperated, slowly saying with a hint of indulgence: "How could that be, you’re my favorite."

Hearing this, Mia Sutton’s ears burned slightly, her thoughts wandered for a moment, and her expression almost fell apart.

Two seconds later, she glanced at the staff, asking with her eyes, is this enough?

Only when the staff nodded did she look away.

[So sweet, suddenly feel the country owes me a brother.]

[Wanted to see an embarrassing moment, but was spoiled instead.]

[Haven’t you considered, why it can’t be another kind of brother?]

Such comments were always being posted, and if Mia Sutton knew about it, she’d definitely give them a thumbs-up.

Just when the viewers in the livestream thought it might end that way, that voice spoke again: "So, did you mess up again and want me to take the blame?"

[...?? Suddenly feels like that sweetness was an illusion.]

[This sounds exactly like my brother.]

Seeing this, Mia Sutton immediately changed her tone, as if the person on the other side was really her brother: "No, just wanted to simply express my... liking for you."

With the word "liking," Mia Sutton hesitated slightly before saying it.

After all, the person on the other side wasn’t her brother!

After saying that, she quickly hung up the phone.

What a hassle.

Then she turned to look at the comments in the livestream.

[Honestly, the moment I first heard that man’s voice, I almost thought the idol I just started following had a scandal, scared me to death.]

[Me too, me too, I even imagined today’s trending topics, but turns out it’s really her brother.]

Mia Sutton: Actually, it’s really not!

[Paparazzi: We thought we would get some scoop, but the scoop was fake, what a waste of excitement.]

[Hahaha, I’m different, while you all were thinking about these messy things, I was thinking, his voice is really nice, my ears are pregnant.]

[I wonder, why fifty million though?]

Seeing this comment, Mia Sutton still had the man’s voice in her mind, and she casually fibbed: "Because my brother wishes to win fifty million in the lottery."
