Chapter 215
Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)
Chapter 215 âNo worries, allâs been chill lately, no oneâs been busting our balls.â Lamont had everything prepared ahead of time and directly handed Astrid the accounts, âAll the records are here, take a look.â
Astrid bent her head to check the accounts, the silence in the car was suffocating.
After who knows how long. Astrid lifted her head, âDid you guys have a run in with a dude named Quincy?â
âNot really a run in. The business on the dark web is all about snatching. Theyâre not as strong as us, so clients wouldnât want to assign tasks to them.
We earn our business on merit.â
âAstrid, are you going to swing by the HQ? The boys heard you were coming and theyâre stoked.â
Astrid paused for a moment, âOnce Iâm done with my stuff and have some free time, Iâll drop by.â
âSure, sure.â Lamont was high up in the ranks within the organization, but he could still be thrown off by Astridâs aura.
But Chad had told him that Astrid was a young girl who was easy to get along with.
The girl in front of him had such a strong vibe. How was she easy to get along with?
The atmosphere in the car was tense again.
The sound of a cheerful game came from the backseat.
A twitch appeared at the corner of Lamontâs mouth; he was at a loss for words.
He was finding it harder and harder to figure out his boss.
Once they got to the hotel, Astrid started a video call with Roman as soon as she put her stuff down.
Roman immediately showered her with a barrage of virtual kisses, âI miss you, I miss you, I miss you! Kisses~â
âAuntie, when are you coming back? I miss you so much, Iâm starving and Iâve lost weight!â
Everyone else in the room looked at Romanâs chubby hands and plump chin and were at a loss for words.
Lose weight?
Starving and losing weight after just a few hours?
Astrid chuckled, âI miss you too. Are you at your grandparentsâ house?â
Before Roman could reply, the camera shifted and Amanda Lampard appeared in the video, âAstrid, youâre in G country? I heard itâs dangerous there, take care of yourself!â
âDonât worry, Iâll take good care of myself.â
âSpeaking of which, I know some people in G country; where are you? Iâll have them come protect you, okay?â Amandaâs expression was serious, âTell me where you are right now.â
Knowing Amanda was serious, Astrid replied, âI wonât wander off; Iâll be back in at most three days; there wonât be any problems.â
âThen you have to report to mom every night, or mom will worry about you!â
Mom?
Astrid showed a slightly awkward but polite smile.
Next, the camera shook a few times, and she saw Elio.
âMy people are nearby. Be careful, and Iâll see you when youâre back.â
His people?
This guy had people in G country too?
Never underestimate him.
After getting a response, Elio handed the phone back to Roman.
Roman, afraid Amanda would snatch his phone, hid in his room with his phone and continued the video call with Astrid.
After about twenty minutes, Astrid ended the call.
But she had an uneasy feeling.
Dark web users usually donât leave contact info in private, she and Quincy had agreed on a meetâup time and place on the dark web, but now she was a bit nervous.
She walked over to her computer, logged into the dark web, and sent Lamont several messages.
After a while, there was still no reply from Quincy.
An hour later, someone knocked on her hotel room door.
someone called and said Quincy was in a car accident!â
Car accident?
