Chapter 123 Give Jonathan a Good Fright!
Jonathan’s demeanour swiftly turned gloomy.
Did Oliver not understand the concept of “personal space” or “boundaries“? As a celebrity, he should know better than to invade someone else’s space, especially under the spotlight.
He’s so shameless!
At that instant, he had entirely overlooked his original intent to back Stephanie and stir up problems for Milly.
Sensing that the live chat teetered on the brink of another argument, Milly deftly shifted focus by gently nudging Oliver aside and altering the topic.
“Good day, everyone. I am Milly Burnett, playing the role of Giselle in ‘Silent Sea. It brings me great joy to meet you all today. Kindly extend your support to ‘Silent Sea‘ and join me in extending birthday wishes to Jonathan.”
Her manner was elegant, and her words were impeccably chosen. Even Oliver’s fans, who felt a hint of envy seeing him near her, couldn’t criticise her for a moment.
Jonathan’s fans were even more impressed. Seeing that she didn’t forget to wish Jonathan a happy birthday, their fondness for her skyrocketed instantly.
It might have seemed like a coincidence, but after she finished her birthday wish, Jonathan, who had looked sullen and ready to explode, suddenly cheered up. Even the corners of his lips turned upwards slightly.
When Neal and Michelle had their moment, they introduced themselves and the crew briefly while also wishing a happy birthday. As supporting cast members, they were mindful not to take up too mu
However, the atmosphere shifted noticeably when it was Stephanie’s turn.
time.
With a sweet smile, she playfully commented. “I’m thrilled to have my brother come to our set. I had. planned to bake him a birthday cake, but we lack the necessary ingredients here. Plus, my cooking might scare him away, as everyone knows I’m prone to kitchen mishaps. Hehe. Still, I want to wish my charming brother a very happy birthday. I will always adore you.”
She even made a heart gesture towards Jonathan.
When the fans in the livestream heard the continuous “brother“, at first, they didn’t quite catch on. However, once they understood she was talking about their idol, they became furious.
around.”
Who does this impostor think she is? Was she a chicken in her past life? Always clucking are
“The nerve of this woman stretches across the ocean, unbelievable.”
“So disgusting. She’s not even good–looking, not as pretty as Milly earlier. Seriously, who gave her the confidence?
“How could she dare to flirt with our idol in such a bold manner? Is she attempting to stir up trouble?

Not only were they passionately condemning her actions, but even the main star, Jonathan, paused briefly after hearing her words, appearing surprised by her eagerness to make their relationship known to the public.
Ace had known about this relationship even before he arrived, smiling as he jestingly remarked, “Ms. Stephanie, you must clarify your words. What exactly do you mean by calling him brother? If you can’t explain clearly, the audience might just assume they’re cursing at you through the screen.”
Stephanie flashed a sweet smile at the camera, displaying the innocent grin she had practised numerous times before her reflection, and declared, “Let me introduce myself. I am Jonathan’s sister, Stephanie Burnett. I look forward to getting to know you all better in the future.”
In an instant, the lively, previously cursing big screen seemed frozen in time.
Seeing this scene, Stephanie couldn’t help but burst into laughter inside. This was exactly the effect she had wanted!
She began by ambiguously cosying up to Jonathan, biding her time. When his fans started feeling jealous or hurling insults at her, she would then suddenly reveal her true identity. The enormous contrast would etch her into their memories in an instant.
ago would
Moreover, with Jonathan’s popularity backing her, she believed her sweet smile from moments surely spread across the entire internet in an instant, perhaps even making it to the top trending searches.
She could almost envision her overnight fame unfolding before her eyes, a radiant glow gracing her face.
However, her smile faltered as she realised what was coming next.
‘Ha, let’s not even delve into whether this sister is blood–related or not. Even if she is, relying on her brother’s popularity to gain attention is quite cunning
“Precisely, we admire Jonathan himself, not the individuals latching onto his fame!”
Jonathan earned his place through hard work and talent. Why should he allow parasites like you to effortlessly snatch a portion of what he’s rightfully earned?
‘Do you really think we’re fools? Women understand women best, and let me tell you, we see right through you!‘
Stephanie hadn’t anticipated that even after the fans discovered she was Jonathan’s sister, they would still harbour ill intentions. She stood there, momentarily stunned and at a loss for words.
This was completely different from what she had expected.
Milly, who observed the entire scenario unfold, grinned subtly, a glint of sarcasm flickering in her gaze.
Stephanie was undeniably innocent, perhaps presuming that simply because everyone adored Jonathan, they would naturally extend the same affection to his sister.
Ridiculous!
She had severely underestimated the rivalry among women.
Chapter 123 Give Jonathan a Good Fright!
In her past life, she had witnessed numerous individuals in the entertainment industry trying to achieve fame by linking themselves as someone’s siblings, only to be swiftly eclipsed. The explanation was simple
fans were not garbage collections, they were selective.
Today’s fans differed greatly from those of a few years back, who were easily swayed by the entertainment industry. They now possessed remarkable clarity, discerning their desires and dislikes, and notably recognising that they shouldn’t support unnecessary figures.
Had she simply kept a modest presence, it would have sufficed, but she opted for such prominence. Fans could only endure so much. Whom else would they criticise if not her?
Thankfully, Ace reacted promptly, sensing the unfavourable turn of events. He promptly proceeded with the agenda.
“Okay, everyone has introduced themselves, and I trust the fans in the live chat now have a basic grasp of them. Next up, let’s engage in a game to determine our next activity.”
He displayed a whiteboard featuring three options: an amusement park, a water park, and a haunted house.
Ace explained, “Now, each person will jot down the activity they like the least in the notebook they’re holding, display it to everyone for reference, and then note down their preferred activity. Those who come regularly get one point, but our birthday star, Jonathan, gets two. The activity with the highest points will be our pick for today.”
While writing down their least preferred activity and showing the notebook, the only person who wrote ‘water park‘ as her least favourite was Milly.
She explained, “I’m a bit obsessive–compulsive, and I feel the water there isn’t clean.”
Meanwhile, everyone else, including Jonathan, wrote ‘haunted house.
Ace grinned and remarked, “Okay, now that everyone’s aware of each other’s least preferred activity, you can proceed to write down your favourite one, the place you’re most excited about visiting today.”
After five seconds, they revealed the notebook.
Jonathan and Oliver wrote haunted house.
Stephanie and Neal wrote water park.
Michelle and Milly wrote amusement park.
Ultimately, the haunted house escape room garnered three points, securing its selection as the final destination.
Milly glanced at the conspicuous haunted house‘ penned by Oliver and frowned, gently inquiring, “Aren’t you scared to go there? Why did you still opt for it?”
Oliver snorted and shot a glare at Jonathan before turning to Milly and retorting, “Whether I’m afraid or not isn’t the point. What matters is that I want to give that rascal Jonathan a good fright!”
At that instant. Jonathan also locked eyes with Oliver, his gaze brimming with a competitive spirit.
