From the day they got married, Mila had already thought it through. Her marriage with Chaucer was a formality, and they were only roommates. As for how far they would go in the future, she would have to wait and see. She just had to live in the present.

After Mila finished trying on her makeup, Rosy bought dinner. She had only taken a few bites when she was informed to immediately enter the live-stream venue and prepare to start the live-stream.

The filming of the new show had to be promoted. This time, Director Zager had spent a lot of money to draw attention to the live-stream. Not long after the production team started the live-stream, they immediately occupied the top spot of the platform’s popularity ranking.

When the fans heard it was Director Zager’s new production, they entered the live-stream channel one after another. At this moment, Mila and the two protagonists had already entered the live-stream venue and were in position. The emcee was telling them what to take note of.

Mila listened attentively and memorized every word.

Ten minutes later, the live-stream officially began. The emcee said, “Welcome to the live-stream of ‘Painful Love’. The three people standing beside me are the male and female leads and the second female lead of the drama.”

Then, George started to greet the audience. “Hello, everyone. I’m George. I’m playing Matthew, the main character in ‘Painful Love’.”

“Hello everyone, I am Natalie. I’m playing the female lead, Brittany.” After Natalie said that, she winked at the camera and revealed a charming smile.

The netizens in the live-stream showered her with virtual gifts, and bullet comments flew past in rows.

“Oh my god! Natalie is so beautiful!”

“My goddess has good acting skills and is beautiful. This drama will definitely become popular!”

The bullet screen was filled with praises for Natalie. Right on the heels of that, Mila said, “Hello everyone, I’m Mila. I’m playing Lydia, the daughter of a wealthy family.”

“I’ve never seen this actor before. Is she new?”

“She’s very good-looking! She looks very young. She should have just entered the industry.”

“She’s good-looking, but her style is far inferior to Natalie’s. I think her acting skills will be terrible.”

“It’s possible that she brought money into the production team. I just searched for her information online. She used to act in small roles. This is her first time acting in such an important role.”

Mila Sullivan? I’ve seen her acting. It’s terrible. How can someone like her be in Director Zager’s show? And she’s partnered with George and Natalie?”

The comments were full of doubts, and some people even began to guess Mila was from the investors and got to where she was by sleeping with them.

Mila watched quietly as the group of haters spread rumors. The more they spoke, the more outrageous they became.

Seeing this, the emcee changed the subject immediately and asked George and Natalie a few questions.

The gifting function in the live-stream channel allowed one to choose who to give gifts to. George was the most popular. In just half an hour, he received more than ten thousand dollars. Natalie received ten thousand. On the other hand, Mila only had one gift. Compared to the other two actors, it looked very shabby.

Before the live-stream, Laila had already given her a heads-up. In the past, she had accepted all kinds of lousy scripts to earn a living. It was expected that her acting skills would be questioned, and she would be given the cold shoulder.

However, this setback couldn’t defeat her. She would work harder and perform well in the drama to let those who doubted her know she really could act.

At the same time, in the capital’s Dragon Bay.

Chaucer was working in the living room when she suddenly remembered Mila saying that she would be joining the live-stream tonight. He took out his phone and downloaded a live-stream app. He clicked into the channel and frowned.

The comments were very unfriendly, and Mila only had a pitiful number of gifts, so Chaucer immediately called Jason.

When Jason heard Chaucer’s description, he was a little surprised. “Sir, are you going to send Mrs. Chapman gifts?”

“Yeah, you tell me how it works.”

Jason clicked on the production team’s live-stream and instantly understood. “To give her gifts, you have to register an account first. Link your bank card to the account, and open the gift column to choose the gift you want.”

“I see,” Chaucer replied lightly.

“Mrs. Chapman will be very happy to know you’re sending her gifts…” Jason had just sighed when Chaucer mercilessly hung up.

Jason chuckled. The president clearly cared about his wife, but he had to pretend to be aloof.

At this moment, a newly registered account entered the production team’s live-stream and gave Mila twenty supreme salutes.

This was the most expensive gift on the platform. A supreme salute cost 1,500 dollars. In the blink of an eye, Mila surpassed George and had the most gifts in the live-stream.

Mila was stunned. The username of the person who sent her the gift was “I Don’t Want Nickname’. When did she have such a rich fan?
