Chapter 189
Roman said, “Thank you; you’re the best!”
A twitch appeared at the corner of Astrid’s mouth; this little bugger knew how to flatter.
Everyone had a great time chowing down.
Nathan’s cooking skills were top–notch; Roman was eating like there was no tomorrow, “Your food is so good!”
Nathan replied with a grin, “If you like, you can stick around; I can cook for you tomorrow too.” Just as he finished speaking, a phone on the table rang.
He glanced at it; it was his agent, so he picked up, “What’s up? Didn’t I say I’d be hanging out with my sister these days?”
“What?”
“Barnett wants to perform with me?” Nathan’s excitement had him springing up from his seat. He grabbed a napkin to wipe his mouth and continued, “Cool, got it. I’ll book a flight ASAP!”
Hanging up, Nathan picked up his guitar and said, “Star, I’ve got some urgent business. Here, take this; stay safe!”
“See you around, kiddo!” Nathan handed Astrid a massive taser from his bag, ruffled Roman’s hair, and dashed off.
Watching Nathan leave, Elio leisurely sipped his soup.
Perfect, finally, no one to disturb their peaceful family time.
After Dinner, Astrid tidied up the house and was about to rest when she received a message from Jon: “Star, Colton’s in a bad way; he’s been causing a stir all night. You must come over ASAP, or he will tear my place apart!”
Astrid frowned; he’d been on medication for so long, and the toxins in his body should have been almost eliminated; what could be going wrong?
She pondered momentarily, then stood up and said to Elio, who was working, “I need to step out.”
Elio stood up, “I’ll drive you.”
