Chapter 155


    Gracie watched the pouring rain with a furrowed brow. “Astrid, you can’t afford to catch a cold, let’s


    head back and wait it out. It won’t rain all night.”


    “I’m good, I’m fine, I can get in the rain.” Astrid slung an arm around Gracie, “Let’s sleep together


    tonight.”


    “No problem, it’s been ages since we had a sleepover.” Gracie chuckled, popping open the umbre.


    Just as they were about to leave, a car suddenly pulled up.


    Through the rain, under the glow of the streetlight, the bystanders saw a tall man stepping out of the


    car.


    “Who’s that? He’s drop–dead gorgeous!”


    “Doesn’t he look a bit like Mr. Lampard?”


    “Which Mr. Lampard? So handsome!”


    “The CEO of Morgenster Corporation!!!”


    Gracie watched as Elio approached, then turned to Astrid.


    Astrid was taken aback seeing Elio here unexpectedly, “What brings you here?”


    Elio: “Picking you up from work.”


    He came to pick her up???


    He flew all the way from Sunhaven just to pick her up?


    “Here, hold this umbre for me.” Elio handed his umbre to Astrid, who paused before grabbing the


    handle.


    The next moment, someone bent down and she was suddenly lifted off the ground.


    Astrid !!!”


    He just picked her up like that?


    And in front of everyone!!!


    Astrid: “Elio, put me down!”


    Elio: “Don’t make trouble, or you will fall into the water.”


    A gust of wind nearly blew the umbre away.


    With the road flooded, she didn’t fancy falling in, so she wrapped her other arm around Elio’s neck.


    Elio, carrying her, slowly made his way to the car, leaving the crowd speechless.


    Gracie shouted excitedly, “Mr. Lampard is so sweet! He carried her all the way just to prevent her feet


    from getting wet!”


    Teresa who was standing next to her said dissatisfiedly, “How can he be worthy of our Astar.”


    Gracie was speechless.


    Carlos was the first to snap back to reality, warning everyone not to spread rumors.


    After all, Elio was known for his temper. If they spread news without his consent, the consequences


    would be unthinkable.


    Several bloggers who had helped Fannie had disappeared.


    So, the media knew not to mess with stories about Mr. Lampard.


    At the car, Elio carefully set Astrid down inside. The moment she got into the warm car, her cold body


    started to thaw.


    He… was being unusually caring today.


    It was a bit unsettling.


    Elio drove towards the hotel in silence. After a while, he said, “I bought some medicine for you, check it


    out.”


    “Medicine?” Astrid was baffled. She turned and saw a bag next to her. Inside were pills for stomach


    pain and a jacket…


    How did he know about her period???


    And how did he know her stomach was upset?

    Was she being monitored?


    Astrid: “Elio, did you secretly install surveince camera in my room?”
