Chapter 184

Quinlyn was momentarily stunned. She hadn’t expected it to be because of her.

The photo was a behind–the–scenes shot from a movie. She and Raymond were sitting side by side during a break in filming.

Both of them had their heads tilted, staring off to the side with the same cold expression. They really were alike.

However, in reality, Raymond had been rambling on and on the whole time.

Quinlyn had simply been controlling her expression. Truthfully, she was on the verge of being completely annoyed by him.

Luke had been struggling for a while but finally asked Quinlyn to try to talk to him. “He’s so stubborn. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have driven Yolanda crazy. She’d rather testify in court just to never see him again.”

Quinlyn remembered how Yolanda had broken down and thought for a moment. “Then we shouldn’t bother with him.

After all, the adoptee would eventually get fed up with him.

Luke rubbed his slightly balding head as if considering her point. It made sense, in a way.

In the afternoon, after school, Quinlyn stepped out of the gate and immediately saw Chester setting up a small stall. “Hey, guys, there are delicious lollipops!”

But after shouting for a while, no one came over to buy anything.

Chester’s throat was sore, and after drinking some water, he tried to advertise again.

Quinlyn walked over to the stall, glanced at the poorly packaged candy, and spoke bluntly. “It’s not eye–catching. The students like things that look good.”

Besides, there were many imported candies at the elite school.

“Well, this is a small business. I don’t know much about it,” Chester muttered. He had spent his time scamming people in the past, and this was his first time running an honest business.

Since Quinlyn didn’t know either, she decided to call Mandy over.

Mandy, the daughter of a real estate tycoon, immediately spotted the problem. She patted her chest confidently. “Leave it to

me.”

After a quick phone call, Mandy brought in her family’s marketing department.

Half an hour later, the rundown van had been transformed into a cute little food truck. Under a colorful sunshade, the candy display looked playful and charming with floral tablecloths and ribbons.

Given Chester’s poor image, Mandy even arranged for him to wear a mascot costume. No kid could resist a soft, fluffy mascot and a cute candy shop.

“Wow, what’s that? It’s so cute!”

“Hey, these are delicious candies! Even better than the ones my parents bring back from abroad!”

With the first wave of students stopping by, Chester’s stall finally got some business.

Quinlyn helped out on the side, watching the sales increase, and couldn’t help but praise, “Mandy, you’re amazing.”
