Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)

Chapter 431

Astrid had mentioned before that she's planning a surprise for Fannie. Hearing this, Fannie's hand

gripping the microphone suddenly tightened.

Astrid was all laughs and full of youthful energy. Just standing there, she made the hosts and Fannie

look pale in comparison.

When the audience heard Astrid was going to do stand-up, they were thrilled.

Fans were cheering left and right.

Even the spectators who were feeling a bit drowsy suddenly woke up, looking towards the stage, "Why

the sudden hustle and bustle? Who's here?" Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

"Isn't that Astrid?! She looks even prettier in person than on TV!"

"Don't you know her? She's the actress who catches snakes and sharks on the show!"

"Astrid, I love you!"

"Wow, it's so worth coming today, Astrid is doing stand-up comedy!!!"

"Today's ticket was money well spent!"

"Astrid is so amazing, I feel like I need to learn more skills just to be worthy of being her fan!"

The host asked, "Stand-up comedy?"

Astrid shook her head, "I'm teaming up with a mystery guest. Stay tuned, you'll find out soon."

"Alright, please stand over here." The host stepped aside, and Astrid moved to the designated spot.

But Fannie, she was still standing there, dazed.

The host called again, "Fannie, over here."

"Oh, okay." Fannie snapped out of it, only to find herself breaking out in a cold sweat.

She had worked so hard for this comeback opportunity. If something went wrong, there would be no

second chance.

What to do?

Fannie was distracted and didn't hear the host calling her several times. The director had no choice but

to call a pause, asking, "What's the matter with Fannie? She seems to be sleepwalking."

Fannie apologized to the director repeatedly, "I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well. Why don't we let Astrid do

the reveal by herself."

With that, Fannie stumbled off the stage.

The audience was dumbfounded, not knowing what had happened.

Fannie sensed trouble and wanted to find the station manager, but before she could leave the studio, a

tall figure blocked her way.

"Move!" Fannie said, but the figure didn't budge.

She looked up to see Elio's icy face.

Elio, "Where are you going?"

"I, I..." Fannie stuttered. Once upon a time, she dreamed of seeing the man before her eyes. But now,

he was the last person she wanted to see.

Fannie, "Mr. Lampard, please make way, I need to leave."

"Leave?" Elio signaled to a bodyguard, who grabbed Fannie's arm and shoved her into the nearest

seat.

The bodyguard was rough, and Fannie's arm hurt from the grip. She frowned and asked, "Mr. Lampard,

what is the meaning of this?"

Elio said, "I've prepared a special gift for you, and you should accept it graciously."

A special gift?

Chills ran down Fannie's spine. She bit her lip, her eyes cold, "Mr. Lampard, you have no right to

restrict my freedom!"

Just as she finished, Carson threw a stack of photos in front of Fannie.

Picking them up, Fannie found that all the photos were of her secret meetings with the station

manager!
