Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13

“No matter how much I stuff myself, I never gain weight. And I plan on keeping it that way. Astrid said confidently, munching on a generous portion of meat. Her phone buzzed again it was a message from Chad

Chad. Chief, the chairman of Tomate Live just gave me a ring He’s asking if you’re really not renewing the contract and putting your live streaming on hold.“] Astrid. “Didn’t I make that clear before?“]

Chad. “You’re their top gamer You leaving would be a massive blow for them. It’s no wonder he’s trying to personally persuade you to stay. He’s upped the signing bonus to ten million dollars.“]

Chad. A ton of streaming platforms have heard about your contract ending and they’re all eager to sign you. They’re offering serious cash.“]

Astrid. It’s just ten million“]

Chad read the message and knew instantly that Astrid wasn’t planning on renewing her contract

Chief might not have cared about the money, but he sure did!

Astrid didn’t show her face while streaming only her hands, and she used a voice changer. No one knew who she really was. Could he Impersonate her?

Before Chad could daydream any further, Astrid messaged him again, [“Don’t even think about tarnishing my reputation with your crazy Ideas. I might not be streaming now but I might return in a few years.“] Chad thought to himself, it was just a thought. He wouldn’t actually impersonate Chief.

But ten million dollars! Oh, the agony of all that money flying away! It was so painful, Chad could hardly breathe.

Chad Okay, Chief Ill handle everything with them.“]

After sending the message, his heart ached even more.

Meanwhile, Elio was at work and couldn’t seem to focus. For some reason, he kept thinking about Astrid’s face

Just then, his friend Orion messaged him, [“Elio, there’s a singles party tomorrow. Wanna come?”

Elio. [Not interested.“]

Onion, [‘Come on, all you do is work. What’s the point of earning all that money if you can’t relax? It’s a pool party.“]

Orion, [‘If you don’t start socializing with women, you’ll die a lonely man.“]
