Chapter 105
Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)
Chapter 105 Astrid sneered, âYou been watching too many horror flicks or what? Ainât no such thing as witches in this world.â
She was already soaked to the skin, so Astrid just plopped down on the steps.
The rain seemed to clear her head a bit.
Her bodyguard in the shadows immediately texted Robb: âMs. Irvineâs drunk as a skunk, sitting in the rain. Should we take her home?â
Robb: âNo need, just make sure sheâs safe.â
Because of the distance and dim lighting no one saw the chain in Astridâs palm.
So, they all thought something weird mustâve happened when Leah suddenly rolled away.
No matter how her manager yelled, Leah acted like she was under a spell.
In the end, she had no choice but to slap Leah.
The sharp pain snapped Leah out of it. She got up from the ground, looking bewildered in the rain.
âAbby, whyâd you hit me?â Leah asked.
Abby was confused, âYou donât know what just happened? You walked over to talk to Astrid and started rolling around. If I hadnât grabbed you, you wouldâve rolled into the street and got hit by a car.â
What? Leah looked through the rain at the girl sitting on the steps, her head buried in her knees, looking like she had fallen asleep.
She had no memory of rolling around on the ground, which was strange.
Looking deeply, Leah walked quickly towards Astrid, shouting, âAstrid, what did you do to me?ââ
âDo you enjoy making a fool out of yourself? Look at you like a beggar.â
âSo what if Mr. Willie defended you? Without him, youâre just a nobody.
âYou, a girl from the slums, dreaming of chasing after a rich son like Mr. Willie, heâs just temporarily Intrigued; otherwise, why would he leave you here alone?â
This hotel was close to the charity event, and many celebrities had dinner there. Because of the heavy rain, everyone was waiting in the lobby, unable to leave. Hearing Leahâs yelling, everyone came out.
Leah talked a big game but was scared, so she dared not get close to Astrid.
Everyone looked at Astrid sitting in the rain, looking miserable, and started whispering, âWhatâs up with Astrid? Whyâs she sitting in the rain?â.
âShe looks so miserable.â
âDoesnât she have a car?â
âSheâs not a big star; how could she have a private car?â
âLooks like sheâs been dumped by her sugar daddy?â
Astrid couldnât hear what they were saying, her ears were ringing, and she was barely conscious.
She looked up to see a crowd had formed around her..
Everyone was pointing at her as if she was a joke.
Iâm screwed; I got drunk on the wind after drinking.â
âDaleâs so unreliable; why isnât he back yet...â Astrid mumbled, seeing through the haze that Daleâs car had pulled up nearby.
She stood to walk over, but a cold voice came from behind, âAstrid, what are you doing here?â
Before Astrid could react, Elio grabbed her arm and pulled her up.
The moment she was close to him, Astrid felt a sudden relief...
The wind was strong, and Astrid was utterly drunk.
Seeing her soaked clothes, Elio frowned. He was about to take off his jacket for her, but she held his arm tightly.
Elio looked at her, frowning.
The girl was flushed, her eyes halfâclosed, looking quite drunk.
She looked at him, and after a few seconds, she whispered, âElio, carry me...!

ï¤Chapter 4596 Her head was spinning, her body weak, so she really couldnât walk anymore.
She could only ask him to carry her.
Hearing Astridâs words, everyone was dumbfounded. Had Astrid gone mad?
She actually asked Elio to carry her?
Everyone knew Elio hated being touched by women!
Mr. Lampard not kicking her away was already being nice!
But before anyone could react, Elio had already squatted before her, saying softly, âClimb on.â
