Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)
Chapter 288

Chapter 288

"Don't starve yourself just to look good on camera, Star. You're beautiful no matter what. If anyone dares to pressure you to lose weight, tell me and I'll teach them a lesson." As Robb said this, he looked towards Dale.

Dale shrank back, not daring to speak.

Gracie, scared, hid behind Astrid.

Robb's presence was overwhelming, giving off an intangible pressure.

Astrid chuckled lightly, "Thanks"

"Let's go, dumbass." Robb took hold of Dale's collar and led the way.

Dale protested non-stop: "Robb, have some respect. After all, I'm a decent agent. Where's my dignity if you treat me like this?"

"Robb, let me go, let me go..."

Astrid was used to their dynamics, but she still couldn't help but laugh every time she saw it.

"Let's move, Gracie." Astrid turned her head to see Gracie's mouth almost reaching the sky with laughter.

She immediately reached out, forcibly pushing down the corners of Gracie's mouth, "Calm down, calm down." Gracie continued to laugh uncontrollably, "Indeed, hot guys should be with hot guys. So adorable!".

Astrid was speechless.

This one is hopeless.

As they walked towards the company entrance, before reaching the main gate, they saw a large group of people coming from outside. Astrid took a closer look and realized the person leading was Joana. She was followed by a bunch of bodyguards and assistants.

Before Astrid could speak, Joana took the initiative to greet, "Hey, Astrid, what brings you here? Did you also get a role in Endless Longing?" "Our Astrid..." Gracie was cut off by Astrid before she could finish. She looked at Joana with a smile, "Yeah, are you participating too? Didn't expect us to work together so soon."

"Yeah, the director messaged me that I'm the leading actress. So, I guess you must be a supporting role then?" Joana smirked, "Don't feel down if you didn't get the lead. After all, I have a lot of experience in this industry. After a few more supporting roles, you'll be able to get the lead like me."

Listening to Joana, Astrid raised an eyebrow. If she hadn't just signed the contract, she might have believed Joana.

But if Joana didn't receive a message, then she wouldn't need to sign a contract, and she even brought journalists.

However, since the contract was in her hand, she didn't bother to argue with this woman, "Joana, you might be mistaken. I'm the leading lady."

"You're the lead?" Emily suddenly laughed, "Astrid, stop kidding. Our Joana's lead role was personally chosen by the director. How could you possibly be the lead? You're not even in the same league." Astrid pulled a face silently, "I really got it, you don't believe me?"

Emily scoffed, "Of course not!"

"Huh?" Astrid laughed, "Just to let you know, I've already signed the contract."

"Then show it to me!" Emily finished, leaving Astrid stunned. The contract had been taken away by Dale.

She couldn't show it.

"Never mind, I don't want to argue with you. I have things to do, so I'm leaving." Astrid really didn't want to waste time with these two women, but Joana grabbed her before she could leave.

Joana said, "Since the reporters are here, let's go upstairs and see who's the lead, so no one can accuse me of stealing your role"

Seeing these two women being so persistent, Astrid felt annoyed, but she couldn't beat them up in front of so many people. Astrid gently shook off her hand, "Then let's go."

If someone was asking for trouble, she didn't mind lending a hand.

Gracie and Astrid entered the elevator first, Joana walked in slowly, still with a smug face.

As soon as Joana stepped out of the elevator, she saw Gaines and approached him enthusiastically, "Gaines, I'm sorry I'm late."

Gaines looked at the large group of bodyguards, assistants, and makeup artists behind Joana and frowned unhappily, "Why did you bring so many people?"
