Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 474

Bernice swiftly approached Astrid, attempting to grasp her hand. However, Astrid quickly dodged her touch.

Caught off-guard, Bernice chuckled awkwardly, "Oh dear, Fraser, it seems Astrid still hasn't forgiven me. We're playing mother and daughter in this drama, how are we going to pull this off if things continue this way?"

Astrid genuinely loathed Bernice's affected demeanor. She couldn't believe that, despite everything that happened last time, Bernice could still land a significant role in a major production.

She had underestimated Bernice's influence in the entertainment industry. Even after so many years away from the showbiz, Bernice still had countless tycoons willing to throw their fortunes just for her sweet smile.

Astrid responded, "A professional actress doesn't mix reality with the roles they play. Even if I detest you in real life, I'll still play my part in the drama."

Bernice was taken aback, not expecting Astrid to bluntly express her dislike in front of the producer. She was at a loss for words.

Fraser was equally surprised. He didn’t expect the relationship between the two could be so strained. The atmosphere became awkward.

Meanwhile, Astrid looked unperturbed, "I gotta go. See you at the set in two weeks."

Just then, Dale drove up, and Astrid got in the car.

Slowly, the warmth in Bernice's eyes faded.

Inside the car, upon hearing about Bernice's involvement, Dale couldn't help but curse, "What the hell was the director thinking? Don't they know about your conflict with Bernice?"

"Aren’t they worried you two will start a brawl on set?"

Astrid simply raised an eyebrow, "If she dares to provoke me, it would serve her right."

Dale grimaced, "Anyway, you're about to film the final stage of 'Adventures in the Abyss.' I've noticed Robb seems to have a deep grudge against Elio. Just the mention of Elio's name darkens his mood."

Astrid remained silent.
