Chapter 9
Hearing Astrid''s words, all the experts were so pissed off they were speechless.
"Thanks." Astrid gave Elio''s arm a gentle pat, then took out a pen and paper to write down a
prescription and handed it to Wylie, "Take the medicine every six hours for the first three days, 150 ml
each time. Then three times a day, 100 ml each time after three days. Once she can get out of bed,
you contact this number, and I''ll give you the new meds."
"Thank you, Aster, thank you!" Wylie was over the moon, "Aster, it''s gettingte, why don''t you crash at
my ce tonight?"
Astrid waved her off, "I''ve got some stuff to deal with. I''m afraid I won''t make it in time. Thanks for the
offer though."
She had stuff to deal with?
Wylie looked puzzled, while Elio''s eyebrows furrowed.
Astrid didn''t look back as she walked down the stairs, and before she was out the door, she heard
The moment she turned her head, a little boy had wrapped his arms around her leg.
Roman was beyond thrilled, he hadn''t expected to see Astrid again so soon.
What a surprise!
This time he was determined not to let Astrid slip away!
Roman looked up at Astrid, then stretched out his little hand and said, "Hold me."
"Alright, I''ll hold you." Astrid bent down to pick up Roman. The more she looked at him, the more she
liked him.
Roman held Astrid''s neck and said very seriously, "We have a kismet connection, don''t we?"
Elio, standing at the top of the stairs, frowned slightly at this. Roman was bright and emotionally
intelligent, but because his father was often busy and not home, his verbal skills were stillcking.
He was surprised that Roman took such a liking to Astrid.
Roman, "This is the second time I''ve seen you, and you''re even prettier thanst time!"
"You''re such an angel, so cute, so endearing!" Astrid turned to look at Roman''s face and couldn''t help
but nt a kiss on it.
Then, there was a stunned silence downstairs. They remembered thest time a female celebrity
thought Roman was cute and pinched his face, she almost lost her finger because Roman bit her. And
now this woman had actually dared to kiss Roman''s face! She was asking for it!
Everyone was too scared to make a sound, but what happened next surprised them even more.
Roman seemed taken aback at first, then turned the other side of his face towards Astrid and touched it
with his finger.

Was he asking for another kiss?
Astrid instinctively understood his intention and promptly nted another kiss on his face. Then Roman
Elio watched this unfold from a distance, his expression subtly shifting.
Before Elio could say anything, Roman interrupted, "Elio, she''s ours, she''s my mother chosen by
heaven!"
Ours? Mother chosen by heaven?
Astrid wasughing so hard she nearly cried. This little guy was a genius. Mother chosen by heaven?
Elio hurriedly said, "Roman, don''t talk nonsense! Come here!"
Roman pouted, "Elio, you need to seize this opportunity!"
Wait a minute, Roman?
Elio?
Elio and his son from Morgenster Corporation?
Gracie just mentioned this little guy was looking for a mother on Twitter, and now he''s found her, what a
coincidence.
"Roman, you need to listen to your dad, I have to go home and rest!" Astrid gently ruffled Roman''s hair,
then handed him over to Elio.
At this moment, they were very close. He smelled a unique scent on her, simr to herbs. The aroma
felt familiar, like he had smelled it somewhere before.
Before he could remember where, she had already stood up. Her hair brushed lightly against his face,
the tingling sensation made his body shudder slightly. His heart skipped a beat.
"I have to go now, Roman. If it''s meant to be, we''ll meet again!"
After saying goodbye to Roman, Astrid found her skirt being tugged as she was about to leave.
