Chapter 48
Astrid rolled her eyes helplessly, “Mr. Lampard, you’re so self–righteous. Why do you think I will marry you?” Elio: “Because of your excellence, only I am worthy of it.” Astrid paused slightly. Was Elio praising her for being excellent?
“I’m really good, but you’re not the only one worthy of me-” Astrid said triumphantly, and seeing that Elio had unbuttoned all his shirts, she turned away from him. As she was turning around, a strong hand grabbed her shoulder, forcibly turning her back around.
He lowered his head towards her, approached her, his eyes flashing with a dangerous aura, “It is not just me? Who else?”
“I” Faced with the intimidating Elio, Astrid tried to push him away, her hand landing on his burning chest.
She hurriedly dropped her hand and kicked at Elio’s foot, “I’m not telling you!”
Astrid was barefoot, so her kick didn’t hurt Elio at all.
Not only did Elio not let her go, one hand even wrapped around her waist, “You’re not telling me, or there’s no one else, huh?”
“There is, of course there is! He’s gentler than you, more considerate than you, he is…” Astrid spoke with her head down, not daring to look at Elio.
Elio looked down at her as she kept mumbling about that man, no longer able to contain his anger.
Seeing her lips moving, he only had one thought–to shut her up!
His eyes darkened, and he bent down to kiss her.
But before he could touch Astrid, he felt something hit his head, and then saw a pillow fall to the ground.
He turned his head unhappily, only to see Roman picking up another pillow from the couch, shouting at him angrily, “Elio! LET HER GO!”
Seeing Elio’s lack of response, Roman threw the pillow in his hands with all his might!
But he wasn’t strong enough, the pillow didn’t hit Elio but fell to the ground.
