Love in the Limelight

There were so many reporters outside, if she got caught on camera, it was game over. Who knew what kind of stories they’d write about her!

Astrid obediently nodded. It took her a while to realize what he meant. Be back later? Did she invite him to her house? How dare he take her home for granted? Recalling the events of last night, Astrid firmly shook her head, “No way, I can’t let Elio stay overnight again.”
