Chapter 86
Elio’s deep affection stirred something in Astrid. She looked up at him and gave him a gentle smile. “I can handle my business.” She said.
Elio fell silent.
Her response caught him off guard.
Shouldn’t she be moved at a moment like this?
Was it because he didn’t express himself clearly enough that she didn’t understand his feelings?
Roman, standing nearby, saw his father’s stunned expression and slowly raised his hand. “ll handle it for you!”
Astrid was deeply touched by Roman’s cuteness and gave a light laugh. “If you’re going to help me, you’ll have to grow up quickly. You need to be taller than me~”
“Okay” Roman replied with a sweet smile. He was always thrilled to see Astrid.
Due to the heavy rain, they couldn’t go anywhere else, so Astrid picked up her phone and played a small game with Roman. Elio was left out and was feeling down.
Carson gave the café staff a sum of money and made them sign a non-disclosure agreement. They weren’t allowed to talk about what happened that day.
After all, his boss hadn’t successfully pursued Astrid yet. If this got out, it could harm Astrid’s career and become a big deal.
Two hours later, the rain stopped. Astrid was playing a game when she received a call from Gracie.
She had barely answered when she heard Gracie yelling. “Astrid, where are you? The director wants you on the set. Joana has appointments tomorrow and the day after, so you need to finish your scenes with her today. We’ve got quite a few night scenes. Looks like it’s going to be another night without sleep!”
