Love in the Limelight Novel novel Chapter 205

Chapter 205

Well, ain’t this a fine mess? My plan is going down the drain then, isn’t it?

Ugh, I should’ve just played along and pretended to be hypnotized.

This villain was such a weakling. How can he actually need me to play along?!

What a pain in the neck!

Just then, Laws came out of the kitchen with a wide grin on his face and a couple of cups of coffee in his hands.

He casually sat down, slid the cup of coffee in front of Astrid, and said, “Astrid, I heard you’re a magician, and I actually dig magic too. I learned a trick and wanted to get your advice.”

Astrid knew Laws was fibbing, so she played along, “I wouldn’t dare to advise you, but we can think of it as a magic exchange.”

“Great, great.” Due to the earlier incident, Laws was a bit flustered when he saw Astrid. He pulled out a mirror, “Astrid, you’ve gotta keep your eyes on this mirror. See if you can spot any flaws.”

A mirror? Such an antiquated method.

Astrid was really ticked off, but she still played along and stared at the mirror..

After a while, she figured it was about time.

Astrid then put on a spaced–out look and pretended to zone out.

Laws thought she was hypnotized and regained his confidence when he saw her like that.

“I remember Fannie once mocking an actress, saying that she was poor at school. What right does she have to say that when she was at the bottom of her class?”

“But isn’t it a low blow for Astrid to bring this up on a live broadcast?”

“Don’t talk nonsense! Wasn’t it Fannie’s family who brought up this topic first? How did it suddenly become Astrid’s fault?”

Fannie was already very embarrassed, but she didn’t realize this was just the beginning. Next, Astrid started to reveal her past.

“As her family, you should’ve taught Fannie better. She loved to drink in high school; I couldn’t even keep up with her.”

“Oh, and she was punished for cheating in the final exam.” Astrid continued.

Fannie was shocked and at a loss for words!
