Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 587

Linda had dressed to the nines, slipping into her most exquisite gown and adorning herself with diamond jewelry gifted by a mysterious benefactor.

A group of actresses surrounded her, showering her with compliments. "Linda, you look absolutely stunning tonight. Only you could bring out the true beauty of these diamonds!"

"Your gown is equally gorgeous. We’re all just here to complement your radiance."

"This entire jewelry set is worth millions! And it's a global limited edition, something money can't easily buy. Linda, your connections must be incredible."

Hearing their praises, Linda couldn't hide her satisfaction. With an air of confidence, she replied, "These diamonds are indeed quite pricey, but everyone here is beautiful. You could never just be my background."

"However, these jewels are indeed hard to come by. If any of you are interested, I could help you get them next time. Buying them on your own might lead to fakes, and showing up at an event with counterfeit jewelry would be quite embarrassing."

Though the actresses listened politely, they couldn’t help feeling a twinge of annoyance. Recently, with that mysterious benefactor backing Linda, they knew better than to cross her.

Linda basked in the attention, easily taking the center stage. The other actresses exchanged subtle glances, aware that as a supporting actress, Linda really shouldn't be in the spotlight.

The central position should either go to the lead actors or the director, certainly not to her. But since Astrid and the male lead remained silent, the others held their tongues too.

Meanwhile, the online comments were buzzing:

"Seriously, can't Linda show some humility?"

"What, does snagging the spotlight get her anywhere?"

"Look where Astrid has been pushed to!"

"Why does it seem like every actress working with Astrid ends up in some drama? If one actress has issues, maybe it’s her problem. But if it’s everyone, maybe Astrid should take a look at herself!"
