Chapter 78
Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)
Chapter 78 âI asked you to check out how those two met; did you find anything?â Ello didnât really care much about Dale initially, but now that the guy actually moved next door to Astrid, he decided he needed to know more about him.
âI did, but couldnât find anything indicating that theyâd met before.â Carson felt somewhat embarrassed mentioning this. Being a topânotch hacker himself, he always felt incompetent when he had to investigate Astridâs information Elio looked away. âNever mind, Iâll do it myself.â
In front of Astrid. Carsonâs skills were pretty much worthless.
Roman sat aside, listening to their conversation, utterly uninterested With Astrid gone, he was back to his apathetic self.
Once he got home, he headed straight upstairs without uttering a word. Elio had a lot on his plate and didnât bother him.
About half an hour later, there was a knock on the door of his study. Turning around, Ello saw Roman standing there with a small backpack, a suitcase, and a hat on. He looked like he was ready to run away from home.
âWhat are you doing. Roman?â He asked sternly.
âIâm going to live with Ms. Irvine.â Roman was about to leave with his suitcase, and Ello frowned, shouting, âRoman, stop right there!â
Elioâs voice was so loud that all the housekeepers heard him getting angry.
Recognizing Elioâs wrath, Roman stopped, somewhat scared.
In the past, Elio would have scolded Roman.
But seeing the pitiful look on Romanâs face, Ello held back.
He put down the files in his hand, stood up, walked over to Roman, and squatted down to his level. âRoman, your living with Ms. Irvine will only bring her trouble.â
âWhat kind of trouble?â Roman tilted his head, looking confused.
Elio was silent for a moment, then said quietly, âBecause a single woman living with a child can be misunderstood. Ms Irvine Is an actress; people will attack her with words. âI can protect her.â Roman said seriously.
Elio raised an eyebrow, âYou canât even protect yourself; who can you protect?!
Roman thought for a moment, âIâll grow up.â.
Elio was speechless.
Roman glanced at Wylie not far away, suddenly remembering that Wylle once told him to sleep well so he could grow up quickly He turned to look at Ello, patting his arm, and said in a mature tone, Iâm off to grow up. Goodnight...
Off to grow up?
It wasnât until Roman went back to his room that Elio realized he was going to bed.)
Why did he feel that ever since Roman met Astrid, even his thought process had become erratic?
He was becoming a real headache for Elio.
In the hotel, Astrid was getting ready for bed when she received a voice message from Roman, âMs. Irvine, good night, kis Astrid smiled sweetly, âKiss-â
As usual, she put down her phone, locked the hotel room door, and piled up a bunch of empty wine bottles at the entrance.
She did this not because she was afraid of someone breaking in but because she was afraid she might wander out in her sleep.
With these wine bottles, she felt more at ease, knowing that if she kicked the bottles, the noise would wake her up.
Once everything was set, Astrid laid down on the bed.
Just as she closed her eyes, her phone rang. She picked it up, and her fingers trembled slightly at the sight of the number.

She felt a chill run down her spine as if the devilâs face appeared in front of her. Astrid clicked on the message and blacklisted the number.
