Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 514

Karin noticed a certain frostiness in Astrid's demeanor and decided to keep silent.

Astrid was about to light the campfire with her lighter when Elio swiftly reached over and snatched it from her hands, "The smoke's a real beast, honey. Why don't you scoot over there a bit?"

"Elio, are you trying to kill me? I'm already freezing my butt off, and now you want to turn me into an ice cube?" Astrid grumbled under her breath but obediently moved aside.

When she turned around, she found Karin's gaze fixed on her.

Karin hadn't expected Astrid to look back so suddenly, and their eyes clashed in an instant.

They were close. As Astrid stared at Karin, her eyes seemed to meld with those from an old photograph.

Bernice! The woman in the photograph had to be Bernice!

Considering the age of the photo and Karin's youth at the time, it could only be Bernice in that image.

But why would Bernice send a picture to the Lampard family?

With those cryptic words... could it be that Bernice and Matthew had some sort of past together?

It didn't add up.

A burst of coughing was heard. A waft of smoke drifted over, and Astrid was seized by a fit of coughing.

The rain had eased off, and she stepped outside to get some fresh air. Karin followed and asked, "Astrid, why were you staring at me like that?"

Astrid offered a light laugh, "You've got beautiful eyes. I just got a little lost in them, that's all."

"You're the beautiful one. People online say you've got the face of an angel. I'm quite envious of your pretty face," Karin responded with a smile. At the sight of Clyde and the others returning, she jogged over to help. "I'm so sorry for imposing again for dinner."
