Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)

Chapter 454

Astrid was warmed by Gracie's words, reaching out to gently pinch Gracie's cheek, "Gracie, I'm so glad

to have you."

"Hell, I know I'm great, but you're in deep trouble right now! Someone's trying to hurt you!" Gracie was

impatient and didn't know what to do, pacing anxiously.

"Gracie, do you think I'm an ordinary person?" Astrid suddenly asked.

Gracie shook her head, replying, "Definitely not!"

Astrid continued, "And do you think my brothers are ordinary people?"

Gracie said, "Absolutely not!"

Astrid said, "That's right, my brothers will protect me, and I also have the ability to protect myself."

She had always wanted to know who in the Lampard family was stirring the pot, and now that these

people were taking action, it gave her the opportunity to trace the problem to its source.

Only by completely eliminating those people could Roman grow up happy and safe.

Listening to Astrid's words, Gracie knew that Astrid was determined.

She was worried but didn't say much.

Seeing Elio approaching, she straightened her face, "Mr. Lampard, Astrid has cried too much for you. If

you let her get hurt again, I don't care if you're a big boss or not, I'll tear you apart!"

Elio was grateful to Gracie.

If it weren't for Gracie's help years ago, Astrid might not have had the chance to have a baby.

So, even though Gracie was shouting at him, he could only listen patiently, "Don't worry, I will protect

her."

Gracie said, "Promises worth nothing, I need actual action!"

Elio said, "Unless I fall, I won't let anyone hurt her."

"You'd better keep your promise," Gracie felt bad. It was the kind of badness that comes from knowing

Astrid is in danger but being powerless to help.

Astrid knew she was uncomfortable, but there were things she had to face, "Come on, sweetie, give

me a smile!"

Gracie swatted away Astrid's hand that was reaching to pinch her chin, "Go away, sweetie doesn't want

to smile right now, you're always making trouble!"

The celebration dinner ended at eleven o'clock in the evening.

Gracie took Selena and drove off in her yellow pickup truck.

Astrid and Elio went to the hospital to see Lucas.

Elio drove himself, and there were only the two of them in the car.

The car was very quiet.

After a long time, Elio finally spoke: "Astrid, have I told you about Lucas?"

Astrid lifted her eyes, and the face of the redhead boy quickly flashed in front of her.

A few seconds later, Elio continued: "The Lampard Group is a family business with many family

members holding shares. I'm the largest shareholder, and many people are watching me like hungry

wolves, others are banding together to try and bring me down."

"Lucas, is the only one who truly cares for Roman besides our family."

"Lucas is an illegitimate child, who was almost killed by his brother years ago. I saved him."

"Many times, when those uncles wanted to harm me, it was Lucas who warned my parents in

advance."

"So this time Lucas was injured, it was definitely because he was found out."

Astrid didn't expect the carefree boy to bear so much, she couldn't help but sigh, "Don't worry, as long

as he's still breathing, I can save him."

Elio said, "Astrid, I'm sorry. I originally wanted to clear all obstacles and take you home, but I didn't

expect to have you face these troubles with me."

Hearing this, Astrid's heart skipped a beat.

She turned to look at the man next to her, gently pursing her lips. Before she could speak, a strong light

flashed in front of them, blinding both of them!NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
