Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 94

Chapter 94

The setup was pretty simple, just a table with scissors on it and the balloon in Astrid’s hand.

Astrid was wearing an off-shoulder dress today; her arms were fully exposed, making her movements clearly visible.

Everyone was watching her hands intently, then saw her pinching the deflated balloon with two fingers, and said to the audience, “If you guys don’t believe that this is a normal balloon, you can come up and check it out.”

“I’ll do it!” A male actor from the front row came up, examined the balloon, and then said,

can confirm this is a regular balloon.”

Astrid nodded, turned to Fannie, who was sitting not far away, and asked with a smile, “Ms. Santos, would you like to take a look?”

Fannie, clueless about what Astrid was up to, just shook her head, “I trust you.”

Astrid said, “That’s good; I hope you won’t think I’m cheating.” With that, she went back behind the magic table, picked up the scissors on the table, and started to cut the balloon, quickly puncturing it.

Everyone was puzzled by what she was doing.

Then, Astrid crumpled the broken balloon into a ball, held it in her hand, and slowly walked up to a child star in the front row, whispering, “Sweetie, if you blow a breath at it, it will turn into a beautiful flower.”

Upon hearing that, the little girl obediently blew a breath.

Astrid said, “Wow, look honey, the flower has bloomed.” She then opened her folded hands, and a rose was in her palm, even with some dew drops on the petals.

Elio’s tightly furrowed brow relaxed at that moment, and a hint of a smile appeared on his lips.

How much talent does this girl have?

The little girl, surprised, took the rose that Astrid handed her and jumped into her mother’s arms with joy, her sweet laughter echoing.

The audience was stunned, the camera was still focused on Astrid’s hand. They watched the whole process on the big screen and didn’t see any flaws.
