Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 11

Carson thought to himself, it seemed like money talked. Oh boy, the boss was really serious this time!

In an attempt to prevent the boss from scaring the lady off, Carson spoke again, "Boss, Ms. Irvine is clearly a woman of her own mind. She might not like being controlled by others. So, I suggest you take that into consideration."

Elio caught his words. He gave Carson a glance, fell silent for a while, and then nodded.

Looked like he took the advice. Carson heaved a sigh of relief.

It was past ten in the evening when Elio finally got home.

As he arrived, the maid greeted him at the door, "Mr. Lampard, your mother is here."

At the sound of that, Elio immediately stood upright and headed upstairs.

"Elio! How long are you planning to avoid me?" Amanda shouted at Elio who was on the stairs, "Are you planning to never talk to me again?"

"Listen, the daughter of that family next door is a perfect match for you, and she can even help you succeed in your career!" Amanda kept talking while Elio's face darkened.

Amanda continued, "And there's also the daughter of another family. She's also a good match for you. It’s just that her temper is not that good. I brought photos of both of them, take a look."

Elio paused, turned around, gave her a cold look without uttering a single word, and went upstairs.

Roman, who just came out from the toy room, rubbing his eyes asked, "Grandma, what does “suitable” mean?"

"It means two people are a good match." Amanda answered with a broad smile, putting the photos in front of Roman, "You see. Who do you think is more suitable to be your mom?"

"No way!" Roman shook his head, "They're not suitable for me!"

Amanda replied, "As long as they're suitable for your dad, they don't have to be suitable for you!"

"That won't work either. I've already found the right person!" Roman grinned, happily skipping upstairs.

The old lady had no clue what Roman meant.

Back in his room, Elio stared at the night view outside the window. He was reminded of a night four years ago.

He was under great work pressure, relying on medication to sleep for years. That day, he took his medicine and went to bed, but little did he know, someone had replaced the capsules with other drugs…

After dealing with the person who switched the drugs, he tried to find the girl, but the surveillance of the night was tampered with, and all information about the girl was completely deleted. As if she had never existed.

Nine months later, he found Roman by accident, but there was still no news about the girl.

He never gave up looking for her because she was Roman's mother.

He also wanted to know if she had intentionally appeared in his room that night.
