Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 4

The terrifying look on Astrid's face had Sandra and Lucinda backing up. They never thought the once meek Astrid could become so confident.

Same old face. She still wore cheap clothes, but her characteristic had changed greatly.-

Back in the day, Astrid wouldn't even dare to talk back to them.

"No one gets to insult my child." Astrid glared at them coldly, giving off a dangerous vibe.

No one had the right to insult her child, even if he was not with her anymore!

Lucinda, who grew up with Astrid, was seeing this side of Astrid for the first time. She was frightened, held Sandra’s hand and muttered, “We're just looking out for you. You're not in good health, how can you live in a place like this? Come home. Dad can get you a job at the company."

"Your company is too big, it's not my cup of tea." Astrid sneered. She had seen their true colors and wouldn't be fooled again. She remembered how they had treated her in the past.

"You do know yourself well." Sandra nodded, "You didn't go to college, it would indeed be hard for you to get into our company. But we're family, I can ask your dad to get you a receptionist job. You could earn a good three hundred a month."

In Sandra's mind, Astrid should be grateful for her finding a job. Given the cheap clothes Astrid was wearing and the place she was living in, it was clear that Astrid had been having a tough time since leaving Sunhaven.

"Three hundred?" Astrid was taken aback. She turned down an offer from the National Security Bureau of Erendor with a high position and a million-dollar salary, and Sandra thought she could sway her with a measly three hundred?
