Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)
Chapter 183

Chapter 183

"Okay then." Astrid looked down at the delicate little box in her hand, full of curiosity.

But she had promised Teresa not to look at it now, so she wouldn't.

Seeing Astrid accept her gift, Teresa smiled softly, her eyes full of joy. "You've taught me a lot during our time on the set. I was really nervous when I first started, but with you there, I gradually got used to it; you made me feel safe."

"You taught me a lot about acting and gave me confidence. I will keep pushing myself, and hopefully, we can work together again in the future."

As she spoke, Teresa's eyes started to well up.

Holding back her tears, she looked at Astrid and continued, "I used to be... insecure. I've been in the business for years without making a splash. But after seeing your magic videos, I started learning magic, and it's because of magic that I had the chance to be part of this movie."

"Thank you!"

By the end, Teresa was choking up so much she couldn't speak.

Astrid gently hugged her and comforted her softly, "You don't need to thank me; you should be thanking yourself. You never gave up; you kept practicing magic. Keep it up; I'll see you on a bigger stage." Teresa burst into tears at this gentle encouragement, "Why do you have to be a girl, huh? Why?"

"I'm really heartbroken..."

Gracie was initially moved but couldn't help but laugh at Teresa's words, "Hahaha..."

"Teresa, you are just too cute."

"Do you still want to marry our Astrid? Aren't you afraid that Mr. Lampard will fire you?" The more Gracie thought about it, the cuter she found Teresa. She pulled her from Astrid's arms and said thoughtfully, "No more crying. You can't always be this fragile when we're not around, or you'll get bullied, okay?"

Tears streaming down her face, Teresa said, "I understand."

After a long talk, Gracie and Astrid left the set and drove home.

Close to home, Gracie's phone rang.

She was driving and didn't look at the message. Gracie stretched lazily when they arrived at Astrid's apartment, "Astrid, you have a week off. What do you want to do?"

"I want to sleep, and you should rest too. You've worked hard." Astrid hugged Gracie gently, "You can take the car. I probably won't go out these few days. If I need to, I have another sports car."

"No need, I'll take a cab home. Roman loves your Pikachu car; he's waiting for you to take him for a ride." Gracie said, took her suitcase out of the trunk, yawned, and walked away.

Standing by the roadside waiting for a cab, her phone buzzed. She took it out and saw that Astrid had transferred 50,000 to her.

Astrid: "Treat yourself."

Gracie: "Oh my god, Astrid, didn't you already give me a bonus? Another 50k? Did you get your pay yet? Do you still have money after giving me this?"

Astrid: "Relax, my money is more than enough to support you."
