Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 403

Chapter 403

Bernice’s words had layers of meaning, how could Astrid not get it?

She picked up two pebbles and began to fiddle with them, as if she didn’t hear what Bernice said.

The night was very quiet.

Bernice knew that Astrid always disliked when people brought up her mother, so she didn’t expect Astrid to be so cool about it.

Astrid was so calm that it was getting confusing.

After a while, Astrid slowly said, “I do look a lot like my mom, she was gentle and kind. My mom was too trusting and got tricked by some two–faced people.”

“But I’m different, I’m cunning and not easily fooled. If someone messes with me once, I’ll get back at them a hundred times!”

“If anyone I care about gets hurt, I won’t let the culprit,off, no matter who they are.”

In the darkness, Astrid’s voice was chillingly cold.

Bernice felt a coldness emanating from Astrid and was at a loss for words.

Even though Astrid didn’t say it outright, she knew the message behind her words.

Astrid was warning her.

“Star, you… Bernice wanted to say something, but Astrid had already stood up.

Bernice looked up at Astrid, who stretched lazily, smiled, and said casually, “I’ll go make dinner.”

Watching Astrid cheerfully enter the cave, Bernice stared at the cave entrance, it took her a long time to snap back to reality.

The past should have ended with that woman’s death, but what Astrid said had her worried.

Was her mom tricked by a two–faced person?

Was Astrid implying that she was the two–faced person?

Ms. Bernice, it’s windy outside. Come in.” Parrish called from inside. Bernice nodded and walked in.
