Love in the Limelight Novel

Chapter 194
He looked terrified, making Astrid more convinced that her suspicions were right.
“It’s just you and me here, and I’ve got some questions for you. If you don’t spill the beans, the headline in an hour might be
‘Director Wes Santos’s only son found dead in the streets.”
Warren Santos was scared stiff. The Astrid he remembered was an innocent, kind girl. But the cold smile on her face now sent
chills down his spine. He stammered to Astrid, “We live in a lawful society; you can’t just harm people. If you lay a finger on me,
you’ll pay too!”
“Who’s gonna know I hit you? Who’s going to know I was here?”
Warren Santos pointed to the surveillance camera, only to find Astrid’s bodyguard had taken it down.
He began to yell for help, but no one answered.
Astrid was losing her patience. She kicked Warren Santos in the face. He fell to the ground immediately, and a few bodyguards
quickly pinned him down.
He struggled to get up, only to see the dagger in Astrid’s hand just inches from his eyes.
Astrid sneered, “Did your family drug me that year and then take me to a hotel? Who was the man in the room?”
Warren Santos refused to spill the beans.
Astrid’s dagger got a little closer; it seemed like it could poke his eye at any moment!
Warren Santos was on the verge of breaking down. All he heard was Astrid coldly saying, “You thought you covered all your
tracks? You were seen taking me to the hotel that year, and the person recognized you. Why else do you think I’m here? Once
this gets out, the reputation of the Santos family will go down the drain!”
Warren Santos closed his eyes, “Astrid, don’t threaten me. The power of the Santos family is untouchable. If you dare hurt me,
PIL...” Before he could finish, the dagger in Astrid’s hand plunged into his hand.
“I only hurt your hand. To me, you’re nothing more than an ant.” Astrid sneered.

Astrid pulled out the dagger, blood dripped onto Warren Santos’s face, drop by drop.
When the blood dripped into his eyes, he finally broke, “I’ll talk! Three years ago, Fannie met a high–ranking official from an
entertainment company. She wanted to sign with them, but they said unless she accepted their dirty game, they wouldn’t sign
her!”
“Of course Fannie didn’t agree, and our parents wouldn’t let her be humiliated!”
“Starlight Entertainment is a top film and television company. At that time, my father wasn’t famous, and even with all his efforts
to find connections, they refused to sign.”
“After some discussions, we planned to spike a drink and get someone to replace Fannie.”
“Fannie thought of you. She said you were an adopted child, and no one would care too much if anything happened.”
“She arranged to meet you for drinks that day and also arranged to meet that man...”
“Then... then she took you back to our house. She had prepared the drug in advance, and as soon as you arrived, she gave you
water to drink, and then you passed out.”
“Next, I took the universal hotel room card and took you to that man’s room.”
“When I got home, I realized I had taken you to the wrong room!”
