CHAPTER 53: TRENDING TOPIC: FILM EMPEROR XI SPOTTED AT TALENT SHOW VENUE

Right after the stage performance ended, before Jensen Sterling even decided whether to go find Mia Sutton, Cameron Grant’s phone call came through.

"Bro, Jensen, are you unaware of your own hype, or do you underestimate your fame so much that you think you won’t be recognized, and so you openly appear on such a big show?"

God knows Cameron nearly had a heart attack when he saw the trending news.

These days, since there was no schedule, the studio staff were basically on vacation. He was just planning to take it easy, but as soon as he opened his phone, a news alert popped up: [Actor Sterling spotted at the talent show location].

Although recording during the production was not allowed to prevent leaks that could affect the show, some people still secretly filmed.

When Jensen Sterling was spotted, the scene got slightly chaotic, and someone discreetly recorded a video.

But they were cautious enough not to leak the performance content, knowing that doing so would change the matter significantly, and the production team would hold them accountable.

Cameron still held an ice cream in his hand, looking at his phone, wondering which media account was spreading rumors, since Mr. Sterling was clearly off work, how could he be on such a dull talent show.

He leisurely clicked into it, thinking he’d just watch it for laughs.

But once he watched it, he was almost floored.

There were mainly two videos, one capturing Jensen Sterling being noticed while drinking water, and the other of him on stage.

In the first video, the man is tall, dressed in casual wear, seated in the audience holding a bottle of mineral water, partially removing his mask, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes when discovered.

In the second video, he was holding a microphone, standing on stage, right next to him was Mia Sutton!

Cameron: "..."

His eyes widened as he started scrolling through the comments, feeling more like he’d age prematurely as he went.

With a plop, because of the hot weather, the ice cream melted, dripping onto his fingers. Cameron snapped back to reality, hurriedly tossed the ice cream into the nearby trash can, and wiped his fingers clean with a tissue.

Then he started dialing on his phone, regardless of what exactly was going on, he had to keep an eye on the public opinion, making sure it stayed within their control.

He proceeded to call to cool down the trending search, couldn’t have it removed directly, needed to watch the situation first.

After doing all this, Cameron quickly called his assistant to drive to the show recording site. Luckily, because Mia Sutton participated in that show, he was familiar with it, otherwise he wouldn’t have been able to react so quickly.

After wrapping all of it up, he picked up the phone and dialed Jensen Sterling.

...

Jensen Sterling’s elegant fingers gripped the phone, long and slender, like fine white porcelain jade, glimmering with a cold light, then said, "Hmm."

Just as he finished speaking, he caught sight of a group of people walking by in his peripheral vision. Mia Sutton was surrounded in the middle, with the group chatting about something that made the young girl laugh, her eyes curved like they were twinkling with stars.

Only after they walked away did Jensen retract his gaze, holding the phone, he asked, "What did you just say?"

Cameron: "..."

And then reminded himself to stay calm, stay calm!

"I said, Mr. Sterling, there are many people outside right now, please don’t come out through the front entrance directly. I’ve already asked the production team, there’s a backdoor, you can exit from there, the car is waiting at the back."

Jensen Sterling calmly replied, "Alright, understood."

After hanging up, he looked again towards where Mia Sutton had just left, hesitated once more, then turned and left.

This kind of situation is not suitable for approaching her!
