Chapter 97

Chapter 97 At that moment, Fannie felt a bit dizzy. She turned to look at Astrid, only to feel a sense of fear towards the sweet-smiling girl in front of her.

“Don’t look at me like that; you’re freaking me out,” Astrid casually raised an eyebrow, “Next time there’s an opportunity like this, hand it over to me, will ya? I wouldn’t mind you throwing all your resources my way. Not many folks are willing to sacrifice for others these days.”

With that, Astrid spun around and left, leaving Fannie alone with a view of her retreating back.

Fannie stood there, clenching her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her palms.

Astrid, humming a tune, returned to her seat. When she sat down, she heard Elio’s icy remark, “Ms. Irvine, you’re quite something. Even the master magician is smitten with you.”

“Of course,” Astrid lifted her chin in pride, “I have fans worldwide.”

“The whole world?” Elio was skeptical.

He thought Astrid was joking, so he didn’t press the matter. But one thing was clear; he’d probably have much more competition for her attention after today.

From when Astrid walked on stage to when she returned, many male actors couldn’t take their eyes off her. If it weren’t for him being there, a lot of them would definitely have tried to get her contact info. He was glad he came, or who knows what would’ve happened.

Astrid seemed in high spirits, humming a tune under her breath, although he couldn’t determine what it was.

The charity event was finally coming to a close with donations and group photos. Elio wasn’t a fan of the latter, so he left early to wait for Astrid in the car.

Compared to the starlets vying for the spotlight, Astrid seemed very laid-back. She stood out no matter where she was.

As the event wrapped up, she ran into Joana, who greeted her enthusiastically, “Astrid, do you know Locke?”

“Sort of,” Astrid nodded.

“Could you introduce me to him? I really love his magic shows,” Joana asked, looking a bit nervous.

Chapter 4596 “Why don’t you go find him yourself? We’re not that close,” Astrid responded with a slight raise of her brow. She had only seen Locke in photos before; their meeting today was the first.

Joana clearly didn’t believe her. Given how warmly Locke had behaved in front of Astrid, it didn’t seem like they were strangers at all.

“Joana, what are you doing? There’s an interview over here!” Emily called out, causing Joana to scamper off.

Before she reached the interview spot, she saw Locke being interviewed. He looked at a man not too far away, his cheeks slightly flushed.

The reporter asked, “Locke, you and Astrid are both magicians. Did you know each other before?”

Locke nodded, “Yes.”

Reporter asked, “What’s the relationship between you two? Friends or mentor and disciple?”

“Mentor and disciple?” Locke shook his head vehemently, “I’m not worthy!”

“I’m not worthy to be her student!”

Everyone present was dumbfounded.

The renowned magician claimed he wasn’t worthy of being Astrid’s student? Was this a joke...

Reporter, “You’ve won many international magic awards; what’s your dream for your future career?”

“My dream is to be taught by Ms. Irvine. If that happens, I could die without any regrets!”
