Chapter 128
Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)
Chapter 128 The comments in the live stream were flying by so fast, they nearly obscured the screen.
âWow, this girl is really pretty~â
âI heard sheâs performing a magic trick today? Canât wait!â
âBut didnât I hear that her last assistant was just a stooge? Apparently, sheâd arranged it all with the charity event organizers beforehand, just to boost her fame with the magic trick.â
âHahaha.â
âAnyone know whoâs coming today? The international magician, Thomas, weâre about to see if Astrid is really up to scratch.â
âCanât believe this show could afford Thomas! I didnât see that coming!â
âIâm here to see someoneâs lies exposed.â
The comments were mostly friendly, but suddenly a group of people appeared, leading the conversation in a new direction.
Before long, the comment section was filled with people waiting to see Astrid make a fool of herself.
A good chunk of negative comments also started to pop up...
It was obvious someone was pulling the strings.
Meanwhile, Astrid had yet to perform, yet Twitter was already buzzing with news about her being exposed by the magic master Thomas. Chad had seen the messages but didnât pay them any mind.
The bigger the fuss, the more embarrassed those people would ultimately be.
It seemed like one of his bossâ secret identities was about to be revealed.
Finally, it was time for the guest performance. The host excitedly announced, âLetâs welcome the internationally renowned magicianâThomas!â
Hearing this, Astridâs heart skipped a beat. What?
There was no such person on the guest list!
Just as the host finished speaking, a handsome man with flowing hair walked out gracefully.
Thomas greeted the audience with a smile, âHello, Iâm Thomas~â
He didnât even wait for the host to introduce Astrid and turned his head towards the audience.
Astrid gestured for someone to shut up, but he seemed not to hear...
He charged towards Astrid, dropped on his knees in front of her, and shouted, âTeacher!â
Astridâs heart sank.
It was over...
This secret identity was completely exposed.
Seeing Astridâs helpless look, Elio slightly curled his lips. If she knew heâd known for a long time that she was the hacker whiz Aster, would she collapse. on the spot?
Elio imagined her reaction and chuckled softly, his gaze on her even more doting.
His girl was a real gem.
The audience and the netizens watching the live stream were all dumbfounded.
Thomas called her teacher?
The host was stunned for a moment, then quickly regained control, âYouâre quite the joker, how could Ms. Irvine be your teacher? If Iâm not mistaken, your teacher is Astar, right? How could Astar possibly be a young woman?â
On hearing this, Thomas shouted, âShe is my teacher! Look, I even have a picture with her, for real!â
With that, Thomas whipped out his phone and showed his screensaver to the camera.
Sitting in the audience, Fannie couldnât believe her eyes. Sheâd paid a hefty sum to bring Thomas here to take down Astrid, but now she found out that Astrid was Thomasâs teacher.
Who was Astar? The winner of last yearâs global magic competition!
Astar had always kept herself well hidden, only showing a pair of hands. She never imagined Astar would be a woman, let alone Astrid!
Netizens were also dumbstruck. They immediately looked up the video of last yearâs global magic competition and found that the hands in the video were the same as Astridâs!
The mole on the side of Astarâs index finger was identical to the one on Astridâs hand.
The netizens who had been criticizing Astrid on the bullet screen were all silenced.
They never expected that theyâd been badmouthing the wrong person all along.
They thought she was just pretending to be proficient in magic to win everyoneâs attention. But they didnât expect that she was a woman at the top, the worldâs number one magician...
#AstridIsMagicianAstar quickly trended.
The heat was rising rapidly, and more and more details proving that Astrid was Astar were dug up.
Like the same hat, shoes, and necklace, etc.
Fannie was getting a taste of her own medicine.
She went to many magicians, and they all said Astridâs previous performance was simple and easy.
And they also said there was no magician named Astrid in the magic community before, so she dared to spend money to invite Thomas!
She wanted Thomas to confirm on the live broadcast that Astrid was a fraud, not a magician, so that Astrid would be ridiculed by the entire internet.
That way, she could snatch back her leading role in the big movie!
But who would have thought, Thomas knelt down to her right off the bat!
And she, who spent the money, ended up pushing Astrid to the trending search.
She was so mad she felt dizzy. She stood up to leave, but then she heard Astridâs teasing voice from the stage, âHey, Ms. Santos, isnât it a bit rude to leave after doing a good deed?â
