Love in the Limelight Novel

Chapter 82
“Haha.” At first, Selena was just into Astrid’s looks, but now she’s totally head over heels for her personality!
Otis tried to say something, but a glance from Astrid shut him up.
Her icy stare was like a cold blast that froze him in his tracks. He lowered his head and didn’t dare utter another word.
If he knew that Astrid was this tough, even if he had the guts of a lion, he wouldn’t dare cross her!
“Get ready on set!” Todd’s voice came from not far away, and to everyone, it sounded like sweet music.
They cautiously glanced at Astrid. And seeing no expression on her face, they quickly left.
Honestly, they only dared talk about Astrid because she seemed like an easy target. Who would’ve thought? She looked so
harmless but was actually so fierce, ready to sue at the drop of a hat, with no room for negotiation.
After Otis was sued, everyone’s attitude towards Astrid changed drastically.
Everyone steered clear of her, not daring to interact with her. With Otis as the warning, no one was spreading rumors about her
anymore, scared they’d end up like him.
Life on set was busy and fulfilling, and even though they were sleep-deprived, Astrid was over the moon.
Being a great actress was her childhood dream.
They are some joys in life money can’t buy.
Doing what you love is the best. It’s way better than going home to inherit the family fortune,
She didn’t need the dough anyway.
Astrid was busy, but she video-chatted with Roman every night.
He was speaking more fluently, smiling more, looking super adorable, and seemed like he had put on some weight.
She just wanted to hold him and shower him with kisses.
Elio sat on the couch watching Roman and Astrid chat, feeling a bit uneasy.

At first, he thought Astrid might ask about him.
Turns out he was overthinking.
She video-chatted with Roman every night this week but never once mentioned him.
Not once.
Like she completely forgot about him.
He was bummed.
After ending the call, Roman happily went to take a bath. As he reached the staircase, he stopped and looked at Elio, who was
pretending to watch the game. He said coldly, “Elio, I caught you peeping at her!”
Elio’s hand that held the teacup trembled slightly, “Nonsense.”
“If you admit you miss her, I’ll let you talk to Ms. Irvine tomorrow.” Roman peeked at Elio through the railing, looking adorably
guilty.
Elio had been dreaming about Astrid every night and missing her like crazy. But seeing Roman’s pitying look, he retorted, “I don’t
care; who said I miss her?”
With that, Roman released the voice key he was holding, then turned to the iPad and said, “Ms. Irvine, did you hear that? Elio
said he doesn’t miss you! Roman loves you the most!”
“Roman!!!” Elio never thought this kid would play such tricks, so he yelled out loud.
Roman knew he was in trouble, grabbed the iPad, and ran away from the crime scene while shouting, “Help! Elio’s gonna hit
me!!!”
Elio was speechless.
He used to worry about Roman not talking enough, but now he wished he’d talk less to avoid daily arguments.
But he couldn’t let things go on like this. It seemed Astrid had many suitors; he couldn’t let someone else seize the opportunity.
