Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 32

Chapter 32

Astrid found herself drawn to Elio.

Elio was secretly thrilled She was falling for him.

Now, he should seize the moment.

With that in mind, Ello abruptly changed his demeanor, his smile fading. “Ms. Irvine, you should know how I treat women who land in

Astrid “I know, I know, for the love of Roman, could you cut me some slack just this once? Please don’t do anything!”

Astrid shot Elio a sidelong glance, “It’s not that I’m scared of you. It’s just, we should always leave room for future dealings, right?”

my bed.”

Ello watched her proud stance, a sparkle in his eyes, “If you want me to do nothing, I can do that, as long as you promise to take care of Roman when you can. Then I’ll forget what happened tonight.”

That way, he’d have a legitimate reason to see her in the future.

Astrid didn’t realize Ello was setting a trap. The moment she heard it was just about taking care of Roman, she instantly agreed: “Ok, no problem, I promise. But you can’t back out, deal?”

With that said, Astrid suddenly remembered something, rushed out of the room, and ran back In a few seconds later with her phone, telling Ello, “Repeat what you just said.”

Elio found her seriousness amusing. He couldn’t help but soften his gaze, repeating: “As long as Astrid’promises to take care of Roman for the rest of her life, then I will forgive her for breaking into my bed tonight, and won’t pursue any future Instances of her doing so…”

“Wait.” Astrid felt something was off, “What do you mean you won’t pursue any future Instances of me breaking Into your bed? There won’t be a next time, absolutely no chance!”

Watching Astrid storm out of the room, Ello suppressed a chuckle. Astrid could be adorably naive sometimes.

As for a next time, it wasn’t up to her.
