Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 516

"Alright, Astar," Parrish grumbled, not caring that they were in the middle of a live show. He voiced what was nagging at him, "Having someone like Karin on our show is odd enough, but I can’t quite put my finger on what's off about her. This whole vibe is just awful. Annoying, so annoying."

Silence fell.

As Parrish muttered to himself on his way back, everyone was gearing up to leave.

Clyde was carrying Karin's backpack, and she stood next to him with a smile, the two of them sharing a joke.

When Astrid approached, Karin greeted her with a cheer, "Astrid, we've been waiting for you for ages."

"Sorry to keep everyone waiting. Let's hit the road," Astrid said, reaching for her backpack. But Elio and Nathan each grabbed a strap.

Nathan said, "Let go, she's my responsibility."

Elio retorted, "No need to trouble yourself, Nathan. This is my job."

Nathan snapped, "What job? No one acknowledges you. Let go!"

Karin suddenly covered her mouth with a giggle, "Astrid, you're quite popular, aren't you? Two handsome guys ready to throw down for you. I've never seen Leo act so juvenile."

The nickname 'Leo' made Elio's skin crawl and his expression darken, "Karin, this is the last time I'm warning you. Don't call me Leo."

"If you don't like it, I'll stop," Karin replied, her eyes downcast, lips pursed in a feigned pout.

Clyde, seeing her upset, turned to Elio, "Mr. Lampard, whatever happened between you two is none of my business, but she's still a lady. You could be a bit more polite."
