Chapter 258
In the video, Celeste was wearing a red strapless dress, expressionlessly “dissecting” a body.
Of course, a legal publicity drama won’t be too bloody, so you can’t actually see the body she’s dissecting. But her horrifying complexion, emotionless expression, and indifferent gaze combined with the blood splashing onto her face create a cruel and enchanting beauty.
Just as she was dissecting the body, the doorbell rang
Celeste stood up, washed her face, wrapped a shawl around herself, and casually used perfume to mask the bloody smell. She even put on lipstick before opening the door.
She was very conscious of her image.
Facing the delivery guy, she instantly became friendly and approachable. She smiled as she took the parcel and quietly thanked him. There was a noise from inside the house, and the delivery guy tried to peek in curiously. She sighed, saying, “I just got a puppy that pees everywhere, so I had to lock it in a cage. It seems pretty pissed off”
Her voice was quite rough, kind of like a man imitating a woman, and her tone was completely different from her usual speech. She seemed to have deliberately changed her pronunciation.
But her behavior was very feminine.
The delivery driver suggested, “You need to train the puppy. If it pees everywhere, you need to catch it in the act, scold it and make it realize it was wrong. After a few times, it’ll understand. Kids need to be punished to learn a lesson, so why not dogs?”
Celeste noded thoughtfully. “That’s a good idea.”
Behind her in the living room, a tied-up man’s eyes widen in shock. The pool of blood in front of him seemed to hint at a horrifying event that occurred not long before.
The man struggled desperately, but the loud TV drowns his noise, making it impossible for the delivery guy to notice.
Before closing the door, Celeste handed the delivery guy some homemade treats.
After the delivery guy left, she took off her wig to reveal short hair and sharp features. With a smirk, she squatted down to play with the bound man’s chin, saying, “I told you to be quiet, why can’t you just listen?”
Her voice had now completely changed to a male one.
Liam stared at the familiar yet unfamiliar face on the video, his heartbeat suddenly racing.
Nicolas called, Liam snapped back to reality to answer, and he said with a chuckle, “Your wife seems to be skilled at dissecting bodies. You’d better watch out at night.”
Liam angrily hung up.
Nicolas barged in the door, having actually been downstairs since he sent the video.
He walked in, sat down by the coffee table, and smiled, “Mastermind of Law has started, and your wife’s performance in the first case is fantastic. She plays a serial killer cross-dressing as a woman, and the netizen is now searching for her information, with everyone guessing whether she’s male or female”
The Mastermind of Law production was quite unique. To make a show about law popular online wasn’t easy, so the first case was set with an intriguing mystery
