Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)

Chapter 508

"Feeling rested? Let's hit the road, we need to meet up with them before nightfall." Nathan stood up,

grabbing Karin's backpack in one swift motion. "Here, let me."

"Oh, thanks," Karin stuttered, handing over the bag and her heart skipped a beat as she watched

Nathan's towering figure stride ahead.

They had paused their journey today to wait for a new guest to join their little troupe at the nearest base

of the mountains.

After a couple of hours on the road, Nathan finally caught sight of Astrid's campsite.

From a distance, he could see Elio clinging to Star like a shadow. It was annoying enough watching it

on the live stream, but up close, it was downright irritating.

Astrid, pulling up a bunch of wildflowers, spotted Nathan and waved enthusiastically. "Bro Nathan, over

here!"

Online comments erupted, [Bro Nathan? Does Astar know him?]

[Check out Mr. Lampard's death glare, LOL.]

[Get your popcorn ready!]

Nathan approached with long strides, handing back Karin's backpack and bending over to take the

wildflowers from Astrid. "Look at your hands, all dirty. I'll take care of the messy work. Go wash up."

The comments went wild at Nathan's uncharacteristically tender tone, [Damn, I'm all for soft-boy

Nathan.]

[I wish I could be those wildflowers in his hands right now!]

[His voice is pure gold.]

[LOL, no doubt, Astar is still his number one.]

Karin greeted Astrid and Elio warmly, "Hi Astrid, I'm Karin. Mr. Lampard, long time no see."

Astrid smiled back, "Hello."

Noticing that Elio hadn't greeted her and seemed off-color, she nudged him with her elbow. "What's up?

She's greeting you." NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Elio grumbled, "Let's get going, Astrid."

Astrid sensed something was amiss with Elio but didn't press it.

Nathan glanced from the departing Elio to Karin and asked directly, "What's the deal with you and

Elio?"

"Uh?" Karin was caught off guard by Nathan's blunt question on the show and fumbled for an answer,

"It's... not what you think. There's a misunderstanding between Mr. Lampard and me."

Her hesitation made Nathan suspect there was something secretive between her and Elio.

Despite Nathan's fame in the industry, few had the chance to meet him in person. When Parrish

spotted him, he bounded over excitedly, "Oh my god, I can't believe I'm on the same show as Nathan! I

didn't bring anything for an autograph, but man, your songs got me through my toughest training days!"

Nathan smiled, "The pleasure is all mine. I'm a big fan of your work."

After the pleasantries, Clyde finally noticed Karin.

She stood quietly behind Nathan, as unassuming as the girl next door.

Feeling eyes on her, Karin blushed, "Hi everyone, I'm Karin."

Clyde nodded, "Nice to meet you."

Then he asked, "Do you guys think Karin looks a bit like someone we know?"
