Love in the Limelight

Chapter 18

The second son of the Brooke family said, ‘Star. You might as well give up: you can’t win. It’s clearly written in the agreement, only if you win the Best Actress on your own without exposing your real identity and without using any resources from our family, that counts as a win You’ve got no background, no connections, and no capital, how are you going to make a splash in the entertainment industry? If you surrender now, Ill fly over and pick you up right away!“]

If it was fishing once a week, she could tolerate it; but dad fished every day in rain or sunshine And He never caught anything! Talk about boring to death!

The most important thing was, when she was still in her mom’s womb, her dad had already promised her to his friend’s son.

Dad loved her very much, so of course he wouldn’t let her marry a man he didn’t like, but that man took this seriously and had been haunting her like a nightmare. A big part of her running away from home was to avoid this man. Because that man was sick, didn’t have much time left, and he couldn’t be with her.

Maybe the next time she went back home, he would already be gone.

Thinking of this, Astrid felt great, threw her phone, and headed straight for the bathroom.

Half an hour later, she came out wrapped in a bathrobe, and was about to dry her hair, when there was a knock on the door.
