Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)
Chapter 168

Astnd was leading Gracie by the hand, and Gracie was totally swooning over her. "Astnd, you're so cool. Can I marry you?"

"Weren't you just spamming Rickon with friend requests? Did you forget about him already?" Astrid flicked Gracie's forehead with her finger. They were having a great time as they walked into the dressing

room.

Seeing them walk in, Clyde immediately scowled at Rebekah, "I told you not to mess with Astrid. Our relationship is already messed up as it is, now she's even less likely to talk to me."

"I'm doing this for you. Your popularity is dropping. Do you want to go back to being a nobody?" Rebekah glared back, "Don't worry, I'm your manager now. Whatever I do, I won't screw you over." Clyde still felt uncertain.

But thinking back to his old days, he didn't argue with Rebekah.

"By the way, I heard that Astrid and Helena aren't on good terms, is that true?" Rebekah asked in a hushed tone.

Clyde nodded, "Helena tried to embarrass Astrid at a cast dinner, but she saw through it. Turns out, Helena's educational credentials are probably fake, it made things super awkward."

"Educational background? Rebekah's eyes lit up, "Astrid claimed she had a PhD from the Endeavor Institute of the States, but Helena told me Astrid used to skip school a lot in high school, and she never went to college."

"The Endeavor Institute of the States? I heard she only finished high school. Clyde was confused, "So you're saying Astrid faked her credentials?" Rebekah, "It's got to be fake. She's only 22, there's no way she's a PhD graduate!!"

Clyde, "She is still a newcomer, and this incident has a great impact on her. Maybe we should drop it. We don't interact much, but as lofig as we don't harm her, she won't interfere with us." After a few seconds, Clyde continued, "Also, we're the leads of the same movie. If this gets out, it could hurt me too."

"I didn't say we have to expose this now. Don't worry about it." Rebekah walked away after saying this.

Even though she said they wouldn't expose it now, Clyde couldn't shake off his unease.

He was distracted during the afternoon shoot.

In a simple romantic scene, he kept forgetting his lines.

Carlos was furious, "Cut! Clyde, get yourself together and we'll resume later!"

After the shoot, Clyde immediately checked Twitter, hoping there were no posts about Astrid. He was relieved when he saw none.

The next day, Astrid and Clyde were scheduled to participate in a variety show.

They had to catch an early flight back to Sunhaven.

Elio was well aware of her schedule, and booked VIP tickets early. He disguised himself and took Roman, pretending to be fans, to the show.
