Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom
Chapter 38

38 Shunned by the world

Seeing this, Jeslyn sighed. In country M, a person doesn't randomly call another, especially a stranger to sit for some question and answer sections. (1)

Asking or answering such questions might result in a person's misfortune and worse case, annihilation of their family.

Especially when the question is related to the three top dogs of the country.

Every time, the cops dress as normal citizens and roam around fishing for information to pin down the evildoers. They also use other people too, including children.

They might scheme for a child to be adopted by their target and use that child to fish for information regarding the families they had their eyes on. 1

So that's why the citizens don't trust anyone who wants to ask them questions. Especially on the three top families.

Maya doesn't want to offend the Lu family even though it's by mistake. Because offending the Lu brothers is the same as calling for a tribulation thunder on oneself and their family. Which is what Maya was trying to prevent.

"Hey, don't be like that. I know the rules of the country, so I'm not going to ask you for secrets. Besides, what would you know about your master anyway?" Jeslyn rolled her eyes. That's right. Maya doesn't know anything about Maverick or Rex, but she certainly knows about Valen.

Maya sighed, "Ma'am, I don't really know anything about the family. My work is to serve the masters and tidy the house, please pardon me and do not be angry, I'm sorry I lack sufficient knowledge." Jeslyn waved her hand. "That's fine, that's fine, you don't have to cry."

She sighed and rested her jaw on her palms with her elbows on the table.

"If only I glanced through the contract... Sigh..." she sighed again.

"Riya, you should leave now. I believe it's already late into the night."

"No, ma'am, I was asked to wait on you."

Jeslyn shook her head. "I just woke up a while ago and might not be going to sleep until morning"

"B-but, what do I tell the butler? He'll be angry."

"Tell him I chased you away. You can leave now."

"Yes, ma'am." Maya bowed before she left with the dishes.

After the maid left, Jeslyn got up and did some exercise to aid digestion. Done with the activity, she became bored and started to miss her phone.

She sighed one more time. "I don't even know what is going on outside and what those fickle 300,000 fans of mine are saying about me. I bet I only have 50,000 fans left"

While talking to herself, her eyes roamed the room and zoomed in on a laptop placed on top of her bed.

"Is that a laptop? Why didn't I see it when I woke up?" She hurried to the bed and climbed into it before grabbing the flat and weightless laptop.

"Wow... So Impressive. Lightweight and cream color. I like this." She opened it and powered it on.

The laptop had nothing on it which means it was brand new.

She configured the laptop and logged into her Chatme app- the top social media app used in most of the countries.

Logging into her account, Jeslyn gasped at the massive inbox, comments, and tags she saw.

Even the number of her fans was dwindling. From 300,000, they have dwindled to 2,000 and she was sure that the next time she comes back, they should have reduced to 0. 2 After a while of staring speechlessly at the numbers, she clicked her tongue.

"Tch, my manager couldn't even handle my account. What a wonderful company."

She scrolled through her page and occasionally stopped to read a few headlines and comments. [Breaking News!

Uprising singer, Jeslyn Lee, killed her grandfather!]

[ News Flash!

D-list singer Jeslyn Lee abandoned her fiance of 5 years on the altar!]

[New Discoveries!

Young master Ray betrayed singer, Jeslyn Lee!]

[Unbelievable!

Jeslyn proved innocent!

Jeslyn ordered her husband to run innocent sister, Christine Wales down with his car!]

"Ha, media... It's a pity the car didn't run her over though, I wish it did." Jeslyn clicked on the comment. Reading the people's take on it, she sighed.

'Cold-blooded murderer!"

'Jeslyn, get out of the entertainment industry!"

'I used to be her fan, but at this point, I have had enough! I'm no longer her fan anymore!" 'Bypass Jeslyn and her music!"

I second that!'

"Where the hell is she? Why isn't she coming out to talk to us?"

"What does she have to say? I'm starting to believe that she really killed her grandfather because he

willed all his properties to Christine. Then she made her assistant take the blame."

That makes sense. These days, we no longer know what's true and what's a lie. Poor Maya!

'I knew from the start of her debut that Jeslyn was a snake under the green grass. She only looks innocent and cute on the surface, but her heart is dark!

Jeslyn closed the comment section and went to her inbox... 50,000+ messages.

"Wooo...take it easy on my account you hateful b!tches! That's more than my true fans already!"

She clicked open the messages. As she already knew, most of them were threats and malicious messages from people.

"Christine, you did a remarkable job. You know your assignment." Jeslyn said through gritted teeth when she saw that the few tens of messages she read were about her 'running' Christine over.

"Are these people blind? Who did the car run her over? She wasn't even standing in front of the car... or is there another meaning to 'run' over someone?"

She scrolled through a few of the messages in annoyance like she had a particular message in mind. The minute she spotted the name, she blurted, "got ya!"
