Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 47

Chapter 47

Astrid bit her lip gently, with the image of the baby in the stroller flashing in front of her eyes again, her eyes welled up with tears.

Roman stood at the door watching Astrid bury her head in her knees and slowly walked over

Seeing Astrid upset made him feel down too

“Astrid,” Roman called gently and Astrid immediately looked up

She turned her head to see Roman staring at her with big eyes. Quickly wiping the tears off her cheeks, she asked in a low voice, “Roman, when did you get here? How’s your video game?”

Before Astrid could finish her sentence, Roman suddenly reached out his chubby little hands to hold Astrid’s face, pressing his round little face against hers and said softly, “I hate to see you upset”

Hearing Roman’s words, Astrid couldn’t hold back her tears anymore.

She hugged Roman tightly, her tears flowing incessantly, her voice nasally as she choked out, “Roman, I love you so much…”

“..love you too, I love you the most,” Roman huddled in Astrid’s arms, gently patting Astrid’s head with his chubby little hands, “Don’t cry, be a good girl…”

Watching the two hugging each other, Jon couldn’t help but get teary–eyed too.

Poor Star, he would give her all the love she deserves…

If he could find out who that jerk was, who took advantage of Star and then tossed her aside, he would never let him off the hook!

Astrid was tired from crying, and fell asleep on the bed with Roman in his arms. The next day, they were woken up by a loud bang.

The room was filled with a foul smell and some smoke…

Astrid immediately thought of a fire. She quickly picked up a sleepy Roman and rushed towards the door barefoot, only to see Elio walking out from the kitchen… Elio looked serious, his white shirt stained with yellow goo…

He looked a total mess.
