Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)

Chapter 526

[Damn, Astar's brother is seriously spoiling her rotten, isn't he? Worried about his little sister getting into

trouble on a reality show, he sent a drone to follow her around! The universe owes me a hunk like Mr.

Lampard and an awesome brother!]

[I'm dying to know why Karin's got it in for Astar and Mr. Lampard. Did Bernice put her up to it, or did

she go all fatal attraction because of a busted romance?]

[Astar's got to be the sharpest tool in the shed. Next to her, I feel like a total dunce!]

[Once the king, always the king. Astar never disappoints us!]

[Where are all the haters now? The truth's out and they're suddenly blind? Not manning up to apologize

to Astar?]

[I can't even dream of snagging a Mr. Lampard, but is Astar’s brother single by any chance?]

Dale saw this comment and instantly replied, [Astar's big brother is taken!]

Netizens were all dumbfounded.

[What? You're pulling my leg, right? Who are you and how do you know he's married?]

[He's married? Who's the missus? Is she prettier than me?] Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

[Marriage doesn’t matter! Ever heard of divorce? I'm not fazed by a second round at the altar!]

Reading these comments, Dale was about to throw his tablet across the room. "Robb, can you believe

these kids today? They've got no sense of decency! Didn't they learn anything about honor and

integrity? Eyeing someone else's turf for shame! It's downright scandalous, the shamelessness!"

Dale was ranting when he noticed Robb was unfazed and was typing away. Soon a comment popped

up, [I'm Astrid's big brother and happily married. So don't bother trying anything.]

At the sight of this, Dale felt utterly fulfilled. "Robb, that's some solid moral fiber you've got there,

respect..."

He was about to lay on the flattery thick when a woman's sobbing came from the screen. Looking

down, he saw Karin sitting on the floor, crying her eyes out.

Parrish couldn't help but comment, "Lady, you're the one who tried to take down Astrid. If she hadn't

found the evidence, her career would've been toast. You're the villain, she's the victim. Here are you

crying a river? Truth be told, without the drone's footage, you'd deny everything. You poisoned first, and

Astrid only poisoned you to get the antidote...Antidote?" Parrish lit up his eyes. "Astrid, that drink was

the antidote?"

Astrid nodded. "Yeah, why else would I ask her for a drink?"

Parrish exclaimed, "Holy smokes, Karin! Are you still playing innocent? You came with poison and an

antidote. You were out for blood, weren't you? Who put you up to it?"

Bernice, who was watching the live stream, felt her heart in her throat, praying Karin wouldn't drop her

name.

As seconds ticked by, Karin gave a bitter smile, "It was me, all on my own. I've been crazy about Elio

since I was little, but he couldn't stand me. I couldn't bear to watch him and Astrid all lovey-dovey on

the show, so I begged the producers to let me join, hoping to sabotage them."

As Karin confessed, Bernice breathed a sigh of relief. But before she could relax, Astrid spoke again,

"Karin, she doesn't even acknowledge you and treat you like a disposable pawn. Why take the fall for

her? Who's going to buy that story?"

In that instant, Bernice felt her heart clench tighter again.
