As Mason scrolled through the trending topics on Twitter, the usual icy hardness in his gaze softened into something strikingly gentle. The headlines were dominated by their joint appearance:
?

?
?

A faint, satisfied smile played on Mason’s lips as his frigid expression thawed completely. He clicked on one of the top threads and found a tidal wave of praise:
‘Oh my god, they look like a match made in heaven!’ ‘Since when was Mason Lowry this handsome? My heart can’t take it!’ ‘What a stunning couple. I’m officially shipping them!’ ‘Wait, has he ever even been linked to a scandal before? This is huge.’ ‘Why would a man of his status appear in a university recruitment video?’ ‘I heard the chief instructor got sick and since Janet’s instructor is from the Lowry branch, they called in the big guns. Talk about destiny!’ ‘Keep the hashtags moving! Let’s get them to #1!’
Watching Mason’s uncharacteristic reaction, Sean frowned, feeling a bead of sweat form on his brow. He asked cautiously, “Young Master Mason, should I have the PR team scrub these trending topics?”
“Leave them.” Mason didn’t even look up from the screen. His eyes glistened with a rare delight. “Actually, set up a Twitter account for me.”
Sean blinked, utterly bewildered. “A Twitter account? For you, sir?”
Pigs must be flying, Sean thought. The prominent Young Master of the Lowry Family—the man who despised social media and guarded his privacy like a fortress—suddenly wanted to join the digital fray.
Mason sensed Sean’s hesitation and narrowed his eyes. “Is there a problem?”
Meeting that sharp gaze, Sean recoiled instinctively. “No! Not at all! I’ll handle it immediately,” he stammered, scurrying out of the room.
Mason let out a soft scoff as he watched Sean flee. He turned back to the laptop, the satisfied grin returning to his face.
Ten minutes later, a notification popped up in Mason’s inbox. It was the login credentials Sean had just created. With a look of pure glee, Mason logged in. After spending a few minutes verifying the account to ensure his "Official" badge was active, he navigated back to the trending tags and deliberately hit the 'Like' button on a post tagged #MJCouple.
The digital world went into an immediate meltdown.
‘Am I dreaming? Did Mason Lowry just join Twitter?’ ‘Wait! He personally liked the shipping post!’ ‘What is his relationship with Janet Jackson? There’s no way this is a coincidence.’ ‘Could this be a high-level troll account? No, it’s verified!’ ‘He’s actually so sweet for this!’
However, the "like" also triggered a fierce backlash from Mason’s hardcore admirers, who refused to accept the reality.
‘You guys are delusional. There’s no way he knows a student like Janet.’ ‘Stop the fan-fiction. It was obviously a misclick.’ ‘It’s his first day on the app. He probably doesn't even know how the UI works. He hit the heart by accident.’ ‘They shot one video together and now everyone thinks they’re soulmates? By that logic, I’m pregnant with his heir!’ ‘Maybe he meant to report the post for defamation but clicked the heart instead. Case closed!’
