He can’t take her home.
Otherwise, her brothers might come looking for trouble at any time.
Astrid sneezed, then rubbed her nose. Her phone started ringing.
She closed her eyes and reached into her pocket to grab the phone, but she didn’t hold it steady, and it dropped to the ground.
Elio immediately bent down to pick up her phone but saw the word on the screen: Chad.
Chad?
The Chad he knew?
The phone kept ringing. Astrid snatched it from his hand and answered, “Hello.”
Chad. “Oh, I wondered why you never came back. Turns out you’re off playing lovebirds, huh? Have you no conscience?”
Astrid, suffering from a headache, felt her ears hurt just listening to Chad’s voice, “Lovebirds, what lovebirds?”
Chad. “Some paparazzi caught Mr. Lampard carrying you today. But don’t worry, I’ve handled it. But I’m curious, how did you end up with him?” Astrid “It’s a long story.”
Chad “By the way, the Cornett family is on the dark web offering bne billion for someone to give Hal hypnotherapy.”
“Huh.” Astrid laughed sarcastically. “I’ll double it; make him kick the bucket sooner and be reincarnated!”
After hanging up, Astrid noticed Elio was staring at her. From this angle, he was just too handsome..
They locked eyes for a few seconds. Suddenly Astrid stood up and leaned close to Elio, grasping his chin.
Elio raised an eyebrow, “Ms. Irvine, are you flirting with me?”
“No, it’s just that you look… delicious.” With that, Astrid smacked her lips.
Elio chuckled and whispered, “Want a taste?”
Listening to their conversation, Carson thought, could these two consider the feelings of a single man like him? Just then, Carson saw an astonishing scene not far away and immediately said, “Boss, we’ve got a situation.
Elio squinted a hint of displeasure on his face. He was about to speak but saw the scene outside the window.
A tall man stood in the rain, another man holding a large black umbrella for him. He was imposing, with a Rolls–Royce Phantom parked beside him.
Behind him, dozens of bodyguards in black suits lined up.
Such an imposing sight, even the worldly Carson was taken aback.
Even from a distance, Carson could feel the murderous intent…
“Are we here?” Astrid felt the car stop and looked out the window.
Upon seeing the man in front, Astrid’s eyes lit up with amusement. She pushed open the car door and stepped out into the rain.
Elio quickly got out of the car, holding an umbrella, and took hold of her, then looked at the man not far away.
The man was about 6’3“, wearing glasses, giving off a refined air. But his presence was powerful, and at a glance, it was clear he was no ordinary person..
Thank you for bringing Astrid back.” Robb gave Elio a grateful smile, then bent down to pick up Astrid.
He carried Astrid towards the house, took a few steps, then turned back to Elio and said, “Just a heads up, Star has never been in a relationship. She’s quite innocent. If you dare hurt her, you’ll pay the price.“
