Love in the Limelight

[Holy smokes, what’s this woman doing here? Is she here to hype herself or something?]
[That’s a bit harsh, don’t you think? Can’t she just be here because she cares about her sister?]
[I thought her livestream channel was dead? She’s always name-dropping Astar during her broadcasts to gain attention! She’s
probably here tonight to do the same.]
[Seriously, Lucinda may not be the prettiest, but man, she’s got curves! Though, they’re starting to sag a bit.]
[I’ve got a bad feeling about this.]
[Who cares who she is, as long as she doesn’t interrupt my viewing of Mr. Lampard and Astar’s sweet moments!]
Parrish also noticed Lucinda’s entrance and couldn’t help but ask, “Who the hell is this woman? What’s she doing dressed like
that in a place like this?”
“Talk about over the top.”
Hearing Parrish’s commentary, Astrid followed his gaze to the entrance, spotting Lucinda chatting with the staff as if she knew
everyone there.
Astrid lazily shifted her gaze back to the camera, announcing, “I’ve got some great news to share with you all soon.”
Comments flooded in: [What? Great news? Are Astar and Mr. Lampard officially announcing something?]
[Oh my god! Is it what I think it is?]
[Holy crap, I’m dead! Look, Astar and Mr. Lampard are matching! Secret sweet moments are the sweetest!]

[Is it really an official announcement? Damn, Astar’s smile is so sweet, it has to be love!]
[Why does Astar have to be in a relationship? Can’t the great news just be about her?]
While the viewers were getting excited, Astrid just gave a mysterious smile and raised her glass, “To the director, cheers.”
Maddox said, “I’ll drink to that, you do you.”
Maddox didn’t intend to push Astrid to drink, but she boldly downed a large glass of wine.
“Astrid has a strong tolerance!” Parrish laughed and turned to the camera, “Who do you think can drink more, me or Astrid?”
The comments all echoed: Astar!!! Astar!!!Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated for All Books Updates...
Parrish squinted at the screen for a while, catching his own name among the barrage of ‘Astar’, and burst into a grin, “At least
some of you have foresight. How could a brawny man like me be outdrunk by a young woman?”
“Sissyyyy-” Lucinda’s fake voice rang out, nearly causing Parrish to spit out his just-swallowed drink.
He turned to see Lucinda sashaying towards them, her chest bouncing with each step, giving off a not-so-child-friendly vibe,
“Astrid, this woman is your sister? Are you okay, Astrid? How do you have a sister like this?”
Astrid gave Parrish a speechless look, “I didn’t have much of a choice, okay? You think I wanted her as a sister? Besides, we’re
not related by blood. Her mother is my foster mother.”
Hearing this, Parrish breathed a sigh of relief. This woman didn’t look like good news. If they weren’t blood-related, at least Astrid
wouldn’t have to deal with her for life!

Noticing Astrid’s indifference, Lucinda pouted, “Sis, why are you ignoring me? I came here especially to celebrate your success
today!”
Lucinda’s behavior disgusted the viewers, who expressed their discomfort: [Oh my god, I’m about to throw up my dinner!]
[She’s not here to celebrate Astar’s success, she’s here to fish for a sugar daddy!]
