CHAPTER 114: MV LEADING LADY

Mia Sutton’s fair fingers held the phone and she spoke, "Um... may I ask what this is about?"

The person on the other side of the call calmly said, "Miss Sutton, it’s like this, I’m Nolan Sinclair’s manager. He has a new single coming out soon, but we haven’t found a female lead for the music video. I’ve reviewed your profile and feel your image fits perfectly. Would you be interested in collaborating?"

Ryan Ross held the phone while Nolan Sinclair sat beside him, legs crossed, chin slightly tucked, absentmindedly twirling his phone.

Nolan Sinclair indeed had a new release coming, and they had tried several female leads for the MV, but none were satisfactory until they remembered Mia Sutton.

Her image aligned well with the song, so Nolan casually mentioned her to Ryan.

After having looked into it, Ryan felt she was a good match. Her recent stage style was also quite similar to the song’s style, so he decided to call her.

In the spirit of giving it a try, it was tough to find anyone suitable.

After listening, Mia Sutton lowered her gaze to think for a moment and then asked, "Can I listen to the song first?"

The person hesitated a little, "...this..."

Then slightly moved the phone away to ask Nolan Sinclair, who lifted his gaze, and after a few seconds, said, "Sure."

After hanging up, they added each other on WeChat, and Ryan quickly sent the song to Mia Sutton.

Mia plugged in her earphones, tapped to play the song, and the intro began, a very soothing tune, calming to the soul.

The man’s voice was very pleasant, singing slowly as if a lover were whispering intimately in your ear, or as if a friend were sharing something with you.

After Mia quietly listened to the entire song, she responded to Ryan without much hesitation.

She accepted, as she really liked the song.

After taking on the MV, Mia discussed the basic process with Ryan, along with some important details to note.

Since it was a private endeavor, it needed to be discussed with the program team.

The team didn’t restrict participants from taking private engagements during this time, as long as it didn’t affect their rehearsal or performances, they wouldn’t interfere much with the participants.

Two rounds of performances had already taken place, eliminating two-thirds of the participants; the remaining time was quite tight.

But Mia genuinely loved the song, so she could only make time for it. She practiced performance pieces during the day and whenever she had any free time at night, she would listen to the song, aiming to merge herself with it and experience its emotions.

She also carefully reviewed the shooting details Ryan had sent over.

With a tight schedule, Mia asked the program team for a day off to go for the shoot.

Mia followed the location Ryan had sent her via her phone, and shortly after she arrived, a staff member came out to meet her.

"Hello, are you Ms. Sutton?"

Mia nodded, "Yes."

"Please come with me." With that, he turned to lead Mia, explaining as they walked, "Mr. Sinclair is already here. Our shoot isn’t particularly hard, though not overly simple either. The overall process..."

Mia followed quietly, occasionally asking one or two questions as they went along.
