Chapter 124
Elio didn’t expect the old man’s words to hit so hard and straight.
So, he didn’t beat around the bush anymore.
He directly said, “Sir, I want to…”
“What do you want? Don’t overthink!” Magee rudely interrupted Elio’s words, walked up, grabbed Astrid by the hand, dragged her back into the house, and closed the door.
Roman stepped on Elio’s foot in annoyance: “It’s all your fault, I could have spent the night with Astrid!”
Elio didn’t know how to reply.
He really didn’t expect Magee to have such a hot temper.
A few seconds later, the door was suddenly opened again.
Magee walked out.
Elio thought Magee had changed his mind and was about to speak, but he saw Magee quickly walked up, picked up Roman with one hand and tucked him under his arm, then quickly went back to the villa, leaving him alone.
The scene was kind of heartbreaking.
A few servants not far away saw this, wanted to laugh but didn’t dare to.
After a while, the old butler slowly walked over and politely said, “Mr. Lampard, our master is just like this. Among all Astrid’s suitors, his attitude towards you is already quite good. The previous ones were practically chased away with shoes and fishing rods.”
Hearing these words, Elio felt a little better.
The old butler continued, “Don’t blame him, after all, Astrid left his side shortly after she was born, and he just found her not long ago, naturally, he wouldn’t want to marry off his daughter so quickly…Mr. Lampard, let me take you to the villa next door to rest, it’s been cleaned during the day.” “Can you tell me why Astrid left him in the first place?” Elio asked softly.
