Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)

Chapter 459

Astrid sat nearby, the incredulity of the situation growing within her. Unable to control herself, she burst

out, "Hey, stop making it seem like I'm always bullying you."

Elio responded, "No, no, I'm always a willing victim."

The reporter was taken aback, and Astrid gritted her teeth, "Elio Lampard!"

Elio immediately straightened up, "Alright, I'm done."

The reporter attempted to steer the conversation, "Well... Astrid, your performance in 'Adventures in the

Abyss' was quite impressive. I've seen many directors and producers offering jobs to you. Are you

planning on focusing more on acting or film making in the future?"

Astrid: "My goal is to win an Oscar, so I'm definitely focusing on the film industry. I appreciate the

attention I've received from directors and producers, and I hope to have the opportunity to work with

them in the future."

Reporter asked, "There have been rumors that some fans have stopped following you since you've had

a child. What are your thoughts on this?"

Astrid replied, "It's their choice, and I can't interfere. But I don't see anything wrong with having a child

at a young age, nor do I think my child will impact my career."

Reporter continued, "Family reality shows are very popular these days. Do you have any plans to join

one with your husband and baby?" NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

"Husband? I don't have a husband." Astrid glanced at Elio with a look of distaste, "If there's a show

about mothers and babies, I might consider it. As for anything else, I'm not interested."

Elio was upset, but he kept a cool facade.

Gracie was outside, waiting for Astrid while playing a game. As soon as she finished, she saw the door

open. She quickly walked over, but before she could enter the room, the reporter and staff hurriedly left

as if something serious had happened.

Gracie was puzzled and asked, "What happened? What did you guys do to the reporter?"

Astrid shrugged, "Nothing really."

"But her face looked really off!" Gracie shook her head and added, "We have another appointment

tonight. We should head there now."

Elio said, "Astrid, I have a meeting at the company. I won't be able to accompany you to the show. I'll

pick you up when it's over."

"There's no need for you to pick me up. We can drive ourselves home." Astrid said, and then left arm in

arm with Gracie.

Elio watched them leave. Shortly after, Carson approached him, "Boss, we've looked into that guy from

yesterday. As you suspected, he was hired by Lucas' father. But he wasn't acting alone."

"They're closely tied to an international assassination organization. You and the young master should

stay home as much as possible for now."

"Stay home? Huh." Elio's laugh was cold, sending a shiver down Carson's spine.

A few seconds later, Elio straightened his sleeves and said in an icy tone, "It's time they learn who

really runs the Lampard Group."

Carson replied, "Yes, Boss."

At 10 PM that night, during a break from recording the show, Astrid was napping in the dressing room

when she heard a commotion outside.

She sat up suddenly and heard someone exclaim, "My God, what a gruesome death! He was burned

to ashes!"

"I remember Morgenster Corporation owns this entertainment company, we've had their CEO on our

station a few times. Can't believe he's just gone like that."
