Chapter 189 Sign with Jonathan’s Agency

Finished

Jonathan looked down, his voice filled with desperation. “I just got too excited seeing Milly. I didn’t know someone was recording me.

“Besides, Milly and I both have the last name Bernett, and they still can’t figure out we’re siblings. It’s like they’re stupid or something. I’m innocent.”

Both Milly and Jordan were dumbfounded.

He’s quite good at making excuses, but nothing else.

Milly smiled wryly. “Jonathan, the last name Bernett is pretty common, and we haven’t publicly disclosed our relationship, so it’s normal that they don’t know we’re related.”

Unexpectedly, Jonathan insisted on his innocence, pouting and looking slightly haughty. “Even if it’s a common last name, what about our physical resemblance? We’re like two peas in a pod; they’re obviously too blind to see it, and yet they’re still accusing me!”

Milly was speechless.

Two peas in a pod?

The two of us may share a certain resemblance, but we’re not even remotely similar, let alone identical. In the entertainment industry, where there are countless handsome and beautiful people, having a few lookalikes is perfectly normal. Otherwise, they wouldn’t call people a version of others.

Jonathan naturally caught the eye of the two of them and subtly tensed up. I’ve been trying my best too. I’ve even had the agency issued a statement….

Milly took a glance at the online trends and saw that most of Jonathan’s fans had calmed down after the statement was released, so it didn’t cause much loss.

However, there were still many netizens, especially Oliver’s fans, who clung to this hot topic like their lives. depended on it. They launched scathing attacks and snarky comments.

Jonathan was fine–his fans weren’t going to back down when someone insulted their idol. They rallied together to retaliate with vicious comeback

But Milly was in a world of trouble. She had no fans, no Twitter account, and Oliver’s fans were scolding her online. Jonathan’s female fans were cursing her out, and some even dug up her exam results, which got her trending the last time.
