Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 76

“What?” The rain was too heavy and Elio couldn’t hear clearly what she was saying, “Astrid, what did you just say?”

“I said Roman must miss his mom terribly You must find her”

Elios hand on the steering wheel froze slightly. He didn’t know why Astrid suddenly brought this up, but he could clearly feel that her mood was off tonight

But no matter what he asked afterwards, Astrid didn’t speak again. He had no choice but to drop it

In front of the floor–to–ceiling windows of the hotel. Roman sat watching downstairs. After an unknown amount of time, a conspicuous pickup truck appeared in his sight through the curtain of rain. His eyes softened, then he turned to the man nearby and said, “You can leave”

Upon hearing this, the man immediately left the hotel

Roman walked to the door opened it, and stood at the entrance, looking towards the elevator

Time ticked by, with every minute seeming like an eternity to him.

Finally the elevator doors opened Roman rushed over and hugged Astrid’s leg tightly. “Ms. Irvine, 1 missed you!”

Astrid felt a lump in her throat as she looked down at the adorable little guy in front of her. She bent down and picked him up. “I missed you too, Roman. Will you sleep with me tonight?”

“Okay” Roman smiled brightly, wrapping his arms around Astrid’s neck and planting a kiss on her cheek. “Roman doesn’t want to leave Ms. Irvine”

“We wont be apart. The heavens had taken her baby but had brought her Roman. Perhaps all of this was meant to be.

Astrid was feeling down and didn’t eat much at dinner, holding onto Roman the whole time.

After dinner, Elio helped bathe Roman, and Astrid took him to bed.
