Chapter 268

“Mastermind of Law” turned out to be more popular than anyone had expected.

Besides the fantastic storyline, Celeste’s interpretation of the character also greatly boosted the show’s popularity.

The production team knew this well and naturally thought of filming a sequel, saying that the pay would be negotiable. Celeste thought for a moment and said, “I can help you guys shoot a few episodes. There’s no need to pay me, but you’ll have to do me a favor.”

Michaela was somewhat surprised, “Me?”

Celeste nodded, leaned in and whispered a few words in her ear.

“Deal?”

Michaela hesitated for a while before agreeing, “Deal.”

A breeze blew by, carrying with it a faint scent of flowers. Michaela frowned, “This floral scent is a bit weird.”

“That’s the scent of the mandrake,” Celeste glanced at the flowers on the balcony and whispered, “Too much of the scent isn’t good for your health.”

What’s up with this place, putting out mandrake flowers like that? Aren’t they afraid someone might accidentally be poisoned?
