Chapter 337
“Stupid behavior?” Joana fumed, totally not thinking about her image, “Who are you talking about?”
“You.” Elio, who had been silent till now, suddenly spoke up. His voice was icy cold, his gaze colder than a snowstorm, “None would want to be with a dimwit like you.”
The moment Elio finished speaking, there was silence all around, only the whistling of wind and snow.
Astrid quietly agreed with Elio. His words were sharp!
Joana bit her lip, fighting back the tears. She dared not offend Elio.
She knew that with just one word from him, she could be replaced.
In her anger, she had forgotten that Elio, the big shot, was present.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Maddox cleared his throat and changed the subject, “Erm, the snowstorm is pretty bad. Let’s take shelter first.”
Elio’s cold gaze swept over Joana. She couldn’t help but shiver, her legs too weak to move.
After a few seconds, Elio turned his gaze to Astrid and spoke softly, “Astrid, let’s go. It’s too windy here.”
“Be careful, it’s slippery.”
“May I carry you?”
Astrid: “No.”
Elio: “Then may I hold you?”
Astrid frowned, “No, Elio. I’m not a child. I can walk!”
