Chapter 91

Chapter 91 A lot of actresses were shyly looking in Elio’s direction. Fannie, who had been dozing off, perked up when she heard folks mentioning Elio. She opened her eyes and looked back.

With just one glance, she spotted Elio seated in the fifth row.

And next to him was Astrid.

Fannie pursed her lips; it took all her strength to keep her expression neutral. She knew the cameras were everywhere, and any reaction from her could be blown out of proportion.

Elio barely attends charity dinners. His presence today was probably to accompany Astrid, right?

She often had internet bloggers spread rumors about her and Elio. Despite Elio’s constant denial, many believed they were actually together.

But now that Elio showed up without her, they didn’t even say hello. This was a slap in her face.

The charity dinner was being live-streamed. In addition to the performances of the guests, the host would invite artists present to perform impromptu.

This was a golden opportunity to make Astrid look foolish.

She had grown up with Astrid, and though she was smart, she didn’t have any special talent. This time, she was going to make sure Astrid couldn’t hold her head high in front of thousands of netizens!

She wanted Elio to know that Astrid was nothing more than a pretty face!

She was not as good as her!

Tonight’s host, Noreen, was on good terms with her. After a few seconds of thinking, Fannie texted Noreen. “I have a friend who’s new in the industry;

could you arrange for her to perform at the charity dinner?”

Noreen, “Oh my, our beauty is asking for a favor, I’ve got to help. Who is it?”

Fannie, “Astrid, she sings really well. You could have her sing.”

Astrid was tone-deaf. Completely tone-deaf.

Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)

Noreen, “Alright, leave it to me.”

Fannie felt a little better after receiving the reply.

She could already imagine Astrid being ridiculed on the internet.

The lights at the venue went out.

The big screen displayed the countdown to the start of the charity dinner.

Astrid, who had been engrossed in her phone, finally looked up.

Once the countdown ended, promotional videos started playing on the big screen.

The theme of the charity dinner was to help build schools for children in remote mountainous areas.

Astrid was engrossed in the video when Elio’s indifferent voice reached her ears, “I had no idea you were such a great swimmer.”

“...” Astrid replied with a smile. “I’ve dabbled a bit.”

“Does Ms. Irvine have any hidden talents she’d like to share with me?”

Astrid cracked an awkward but polite smile, “Not really; what could I possibly be good at? I’m just a small, unknown actress.”

“Oh? Really?” Elio suddenly leaned towards her.

Astrid quickly put her hand on Elio’s face. “Mr. Lampard, please keep your distance in public places.”

The people sitting behind them were stunned.

Everyone knew that Elio was somewhat repulsed by physical contact with women. They remember clearly that Elio would even throw away clothes touched by women.

But now, this young actress, unknown to most, has dared touch Elio’s face!

What was even more surprising was the strength of this unknown actress. Elio’s handsome face was visibly distorted by her push.
