Chapter 324
Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)
Chapter 324 Dale is a shrewd guy. He wouldnât sign a newbie unless theyâve got the potential to be a superstar.
So, he was all eyes and ears for Astridâs performance this time.
After saying goodbye to the director and other guests, Astrid made her exit..
Elio followed her out, without uttering a word.
Just as Astrid reached the door, a cold breeze carrying the chill of the rain hit her.
She instinctively reached out to keep the rain off, but in the next instant, Elio moved in front, shielding her from most of the wind and rain, âYou good?
Astrid took a step back, then looked up at him. There was a hint of annoyance in her tone, âElio, are you stalking me? You have to tag along even when Iâm on a show!â âSurviving in the wild is dangerous, so I have to protect you.â Elio said while opening his umbrella, âPlus, Iâm not comfortable with you being alone with Naylor.â Alone with Naylor?
Astrid was at a loss for words. With so many crew members around, how could she possibly be alone with Naylor?
These were all excuses.
Seeing her upset, Elio quietly said, âThe stormâs pretty bad tonight, so the flight might get canceled. Can I take you to see Colton?â
âYou know where he is?â Astrid frowned, âWhat else do you know?â
Elio said, âI also know that you had Keen pretend to be infected to save him. Both Keenâs and Jonâs places were not safe at that time, so I arranged a hiding place for Colton. Donât worry. Heâs doing well now.â
Astrid didnât expect Elio to know so much, and that he had been helping behind the scenes.
If she hadnât returned to Sunhaven for the press conference today, he probably wouldnât have told her about this.
Her phone vibrated a few times. She glanced at it. It was a message about the flight being canceled.
A snowstorm was coming.
âLetâs go.â After saying that, Astrid turned around and walked into the rain.

ï¤Chapter 801 Living Off Her Elio tilted the majority of the umbrella towards her, leaving most of his body exposed to the rain.
Once in the car, Astrid noticed his wet clothes and frowned, âElio, you didnât have to do that.â
Elio took off his jacket and put it aside, murmuring, âI might not have done enough when Iâm not by your side. But when Iâm with you, I will protect you with all my heart.â Looking into his sincere eyes, Astridâs heart began to race.
The honking outside pulled her back to reality. She quickly turned to look out the window, âI donât need your protection. I can take care of myself.â
Elio said, âI know youâre strong. I wonât take away your right to handle things and wonât interfere with your decisions, as long as youâre safe. But some matters are better handled by men.â
Astrid raised an eyebrow, âLike what?â
âUh...â Elio tilted his head, a trace of teasing flashing in his eyes, âLike getting rid of bad guys.â
Astrid was speechless.
The car gradually came to a stop.
Carson got out of the car, and opened the umbrella and the car door, saying, âBoss, weâre here.â
Elio got out first, then bent down and said, âYou can get out now.â
After getting out of the car, she saw rows of villas.
She had only taken a few steps forward when she heard Jonâs voice, âColton, why are you possessing someone else again?â
Astrid and Elio were both speechless.
