Chapter 208
Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)
Chapter 208 Fannie replied. âYeah... yeah...â
She seemed to hesitate, a frown creasing her brow.
A few seconds passed, but she still didnât say the name.
Looking at her, Astrid softened her tone, âYou look beat. Once weâre done here, you can get some shutâeye.â
After a few moments, Fannie finally spoke, âI donât know who he is. That day, Warren Santos got the rooms mixed up. He sent you to a strangerâs room.â
Astrid had suspected that Fannie might not know the manâs identity, but she was still a bit bummed. âWarren Santos said you went to the hotel the next day. Did you see the guy from the next room?â
Upon hearing Astridâs words, Fannie fell silent.
She furrowed her brows and was lost in thought.
After a while, she said, âI saw him.â
Astrid got a bit antsy, âWhat did he look like? How old was he?ââ
âWhen I came out of the elevator, he was coming out of his room and heading down the corridor. I didnât see his face. His clothes were baggy, and he had a hat on... Iâm not sure if his leg was injured or if he naturally limps.â
Limping?
A cripple?
Astrid frowned slightly, then asked, âAny other details? Was he with anyone else?â
âPeople?â Fannie paused for a moment, âThere were two guys following him, one fat and one thin. The thin one called the fat one Quincy. Yeah, Quincy. And they were going... somewhere, I didnât catch it...â
Quincy?
Doesnât sound like a real name.
Maybe this name could lead to some clues.
For some reason, she felt familiar with this name, as if she had heard it somewhere.
Astrid asked Fannie a few more questions, and Fannie told her all she knew.
Considering it was about time, Astrid snapped her fingers near Fannieâs ear.
Fannie suddenly woke up.
She sat there, looking blankly at Astrid, then at her own home, feeling empty.
Was the live streaming incident a dream?
Why was Astrid here?
Was it all real?
Wait, she was definitely dreaming just now.
Fannieâs emotions started spiraling. Just then, the doorbell rang.
Instinctively, she asked, âWho is it?â
âMs. Santos, please open the door. We are the police and we need your cooperation in an investigation.â A manâs voice came from outside, startling Fannie.
Police?
She suddenly stood up and pointed at Astrid, âAstrid, you actually called the cops? Arenât you worried Iâll spill all your secrets? Iâve got nothing to lose now; Iâm not afraid!â
âHuh.â Astrid snorted, leisurely peeling an orange to eat, âYouâre not scared?â
If you dare expose this, I guarantee tomorrowâs headline will be: âFannie gained leading roles in several films through illicit relationships with producers and directors.â
