Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 100

Chapter 100

His rank in the family has been sinking lower and lower; he used to be the top dog, but now he’s ranking even lower than the family pet.

Robb reached out and gently patted Astrid’s head with his big hand; his touch was incredibly gentle. “That’s right, Star’s a delicate little flower who can take on ten big blokes all by herself. She’s so fragile.”

“Buzz off…” When Robb took off, Astrid had just gotten out of the car with her drink.

She looked at the empty and somewhat desolate street, left speechless. She turned towards the parking lot, where Gracie still awaited her in the car.

She hadn’t even reached the car when her phone started ringing.

When she saw it was Roman who was calling, she immediately picked up, “Hello, Roman.”

“I miss you.” A soft voice came from the other end of the phone, sounding weak and feeble.

Astrid immediately felt something was off and asked, “What’s wrong, Roman? Are you feeling unwell?”

“I’m fine, just… dizzy…” Roman’s voice trailed off, and she heard a loud thud.

Then she heard Wylie and the maid’s panicked voices from the phone, “Roman!”

“Roman, wake up! Roman!”

A sudden pain shot through Astrid’s heart, and she quickly ran towards the car.

She didn’t have Wylie’s number, so she called Elio instead.

After a while, Elio picked up, “Astrid, what’s up?”

“Roman’s sick; which hospital is he in?” Astrid asked hurriedly.
