Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio) novel Chapter 412

Chapter 412

Bernice over there was sobbing her heart out, looking as if she’d been dealt a raw deal.

Astrid’s face was expressionless, but her heart was full of sneers. She got up from her chair and slowly approached Bernice, “Auntie Bernice, I didn’t see It coming that you’d stab me in the back like this! You’ve been in showbiz for years, not a rookie, you do realize how much that would affect me, don’t you? But you, you played the victim first. Shouldn’t I be the real one feeling screwed over? The fake fiancé you made up could ruin my career, yet I haven’t shed a tear, and here you are crying your eyes out. Do you think a good cry can fix everything?”

Bernice was taken aback that Astrid called her out in front of everyone, she was speechless for a moment, “Astrid, we can talk this out in private. There are so many people watching live, we’ll be the laughingstock if we make a scene.”

“Laughingstock? Weren’t you trying to make a joke out of me when you posted that comment?” Astrid smirked, “I’m gonna settle this once and for all right here, so no one can use this against me in the future. Since you claim I have a fiancé, spit out his name now and call him on the spot. Let him clarify our relationship in front of the audience.”

As Astrid finished, Bernice’s heart suddenly raced.

Ever since the last incident, Hawthorne Cliff had shut himself off and hadn’t shown his face for a while.

Whether she could get through to him was one thing, what he would say was another.

“Er…” Hawthorne bit her lip, “He wouldn’t admit it for the sake of your career, even if we get through, what would that prove? Besides, he’s overseas, the call might not even go through.”
