Chapter 290: Chapter 289: Caught on Camera in the Library

In the next few days, Mia Sutton went to the school library to study.

Jensen Sterling specifically asked someone to save a seat for her.

Mia Sutton chose a spot that was quite secluded, just to avoid being discovered by others.

Earlier, she was lucky not to be recognized since she was wearing a mask, and the guy sitting opposite her was very quiet and reserved.

He just gave Mia Sutton a surprised look when he first saw her with a mask, and then quietly started reading his book.

Except for drinking water, he didn’t even lift his head once.

For several days in a row, Mia Sutton sat at that spot, and it was indeed very safe, and the guy also sat there quietly, as if nothing but books could catch his attention.

He only once asked if Mia Sutton was wearing a mask because of a cold.

Mia Sutton hesitated for a moment, quickly caught on, and nodded pretendingly.

The guy had an "I knew it" expression, casually took out a pack of cold medicine from his bag, and placed it on the table for her, after which there was no further interaction.

Mia Sutton was very satisfied with this situation, but today she wasn’t as lucky.

Mia had only been reading for a little while when she heard someone not far away mentioning her name.

Because the library was very quiet, with nothing but the sound of pages turning every now and then.

And they were not far from her, so when they whispered, Mia Sutton heard it very clearly.

Mia Sutton thought to herself, could she have been found?

She slowly lifted her gaze and instantly locked eyes with two girls across from her.

Those two girls, upon seeing Mia looking at them, suddenly had their eyes light up and quickly put away their phones.

The girl hesitated for a moment, but still got up and walked over to Mia Sutton’s side, holding a small notebook in her hand.

Mia Sutton quickly made a shushing gesture, and the girl nodded quickly, indicating she understood.

Then she whispered a very quiet ’hello’.

She then raised her phone to show Mia Sutton. On it was a line of text: ’It’s like this, we just saw you and got too excited, so we took a picture and posted it on Weibo. We’re really sorry, will this affect you? If it’s not good, I’ll delete it immediately.’

Mia Sutton looked down at the lines on the phone and then shook her head, softly saying, "It’s okay."

The girl sighed in relief; she was really too excited.

She was somewhat of a casual fan of Mia Sutton and quite liked her performances. She had also heard about the recent happenings.

She heard that many people were now paying attention to Aethelgard’s final exams.

Especially since just yesterday she said to someone that it was the time for final exam preparation, and she wondered if she might encounter Mia Sutton at the university.

But it was just a passing thought, after all, Mia Sutton was a celebrity, and how could she possibly come to campus to study.

To her utter surprise, after saying it yesterday, she actually met her today, it was almost miraculous.

So she excitedly took a photo and posted it.

Now hearing Mia Sutton say it was okay made her feel relieved.

"Could you give me an autograph?" she asked timidly, holding out her notebook.

Mia Sutton nodded, took the notebook, and signed it, also adding a line of well wishes that she hoped she would score high in her final exams.

The girl took it back happily, thanked her, and returned to her seat.

At this time, Mia Sutton saw the boy across from her looking up with a rather surprised expression.

It seemed he hadn’t expected the person sitting across from him would be a celebrity.

Since their seats were quite close, he naturally heard their conversation just now.

Mia Sutton: "Sorry, it wasn’t intentional to lie about having a cold, it was just too inconvenient otherwise."

The boy nodded, indicating he understood.

Mia Sutton felt relieved, ready to continue reading, when suddenly she remembered something.

She took out her phone, and was immediately startled!

Then she quickly packed up her things and returned the book back to its place. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

She left the library in great haste.

When she left, there were already some people outside the library, not many, but from their conversation, she could scatterly hear that they came here because of the news online.

Mia Sutton wrapped herself tightly and then quickly slipped away through places where others might not notice.

Only after getting back to her car did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.

She almost forgot, with that photo posted online, people would surely come to Aethelgard’s library to look for her.

Luckily, she slipped away quickly.

Because Mia Sutton had to go to Aethelgard every day in recent days and it was early, she didn’t ask Leo to drive her, but drove a car herself.

As she drove out of the school gate, she saw there were already a lot of people outside, including paparazzi lurking around.

Mia clicked her tongue twice, "They came really fast, but too bad, you’re bound to catch nothing this time."

Then, feeling very cheerful, she drove off, the car’s tail end swaying elegantly as she disappeared from Aethelgard.

However, in her current situation, she couldn’t continue going to the library to study, but it didn’t matter too much, as she had nearly finished reading what she needed.

...

Since Aethelgard doesn’t usually allow outsiders to enter, the school wasn’t chaotic.

People continued doing their own things, just occasionally someone curiously checked around the library.

And those paparazzi, who failed several times to sneak into Aethelgard’s gates, could only camp outside.

"Is it true that Mia Sutton is at Aethelgard?"

Another person rubbed his hands, huffed out a breath, and said, "Definitely, the location of that photo was Aethelgard’s library, probably cramming before the exams because of the online hoopla."

"We can’t get in, so we have to stay here and keep watch, who knows if we’ll capture something, better focus now, if we miss it, we’ve staked out for nothing."

They didn’t know that Mia Sutton had long left the school grounds, they were just staking out air there.

...

The internet was also buzzing at this time.

"I actually saw Mia Sutton at Aethelgard, once again reflecting on myself why I didn’t work harder to get into Aethelgard."

"Putting everything else aside, I’m really looking forward to Aethelgard’s exams, not for anything else, just to see the results of all the hard work my celebrity put in."

"Fans, stop defending, if the actual scores turn out bad, it’ll be really embarrassing."

"Oh, you are so amazing, did you get into Aethelgard then?"

"After knowing Mia Sutton’s college entrance exam scores, I just think this woman is freaking amazing, even if her college grades aren’t great, so what? It’s a height I can’t reach."

"Exactly, I really don’t get how some people think, are you so great that the country can’t contain you, that you even look down on Aethelgard, has it gone to your head?"

"My apologies, Aethelgard is ultimately out of my league."
