True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 148

When the showrunners first set their sights on Mae, she was their top pick and received the inaugural invitation. But for reasons unknown, whether she harbored reservations or looked down on the show’s concept, she flatly turned them down.

So why did Mac agree to step in on the second episode? It was largely thanks to the massive viewership the premiere had garnered.

The production team, somewhat resigned to their fate and hoping for a miracle, sent out a fresh batch of invitations.

This time, Mae said yes without hesitation.

Her one condition was that the show couldn’t do anything to tarnish her image. In fact, they had to reinforce her lucky charm persona on camera if needed.

The online buzz was one thing, but those in the know understood the true weight behind this so–called lucky charm image.

Especially when she made this request, the producers realized that this persona might not be as solid as it appeared. However, Bagot couldn’t bring himself to refuse her.

After all the lucky charm image fit perfectly with the theme of their show. If handled well, it could propel them to new heights.

Bagot discussed it with Baily. Without much ado, they agreed to bring Mae on as a guest replacement.

While they were at it. Mae finally graced them with her presence, fashionably late.

Unlike the petite and sweet Candace, Mae was a mix of sugar and spice. With a high figure, she was striking and elegant.

Stepping out of the car, she effortlessly captured everyone’s attention, her impeccably timed smile perfectly captured by the camera.

It was like the premiere all over again when Kane had made his entrance, with fans going wild in the live chat.
