Chapter 277


    On the surface, the big boss of thepany seemed to be Ms. Ileane, but the actual helm was


    Hawthorne Cliff.


    Because she made a lot of profits for Hawthorne, Hawthorne still trusted her. But she didn’t expect that


    Hawthorne really had feelings for Astrid. The coughing on the other end of the phone got louder,


    Queenie started to get a little anxious, so she whispered, “Mr. Cliff, I know I messed up, but Astrid


    wasn’t injured today, so I’m begging you. I hope you can help me out, I can apologize to Astrid right


    away!”


    The coughing from Hawthorne finally stopped.


    While waiting for his response, every second felt like an eternity for Queenie.


    After a while, Hawthorne said, “Tomorrow, I’ll send someone to pick you up, you go to Southhaven.”


    Upon hearing Southhaven, Queenie felt a chill run down her spine. She bolted from the scene, leaving


    Pa standing there looking dazed.


    A few dayster, the media reported that Queenie had gone missing.


    It was as if she had vanished off the face of the earth there was no news of her.


    Because of this, Tania got the boot from Starlight Entertainment overnight.


    ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .


    Astrid knew, those reporters at the hotel were arranged by Elio, and those videos were also released


    by him.


    This had a big impact on Starlight Entertainment, even their stock took a hit.


    On the day Astrid moved, Carson was by her side singing Elio’s praises, “Ms. Irvine, our boss is really


    willing to do anything for you!”


    “Due to the Tania incident, thepany lost a few billion, movie contracts, endorsements, variety show


    breaches, all have to bepensated, but our boss said he doesn’t care at all. As long as he can


    avenge you, any loss is worth it! You know, our boss only has you in his heart!”


    “Stop.” Astrid was annoyed by his words, “Carson, how much does Elio pay you a month? How much


    does he pay you for each good word you say about him?”


    Carson was a bit embarrassed by Astrid’s question, he scratched his head, “Ms. Irvine, what are you


    implying? When I say good things about the boss, could it be for money? It’s because of my deep


    admiration for the boss!”


    Astrid rolled her eyes.


    She’s not a fool, of course, she knew what Elio had done.”


    Butpared to the suffering she had endured, what was his little hardship? He deserved a taste of


    hardship!


    “Astrid, everything is packed.” Elio, wanting to leave a good impression on Astrid, specifically took the


    day off work to help her move.


    Astrid looked at the sweaty Elio and smiled, “Okay, thank you.”


    She never liked living in big houses, partly because the empty space felt lonely, and partly because big


    houses were a pain to clean.


    So this time she chose a two–bedroom house again, but this time she bought it herself.


    Because if she didn’t buy it herself, who knew if she would end up renting one of Elio’s ces again.


    “Astrid!” Yates’s voice came from the side, Astrid turned her head, seeing him rushing towards her with


    his arms outstretched. Astrid frowned, ready to kick him away with one swift kick.


    The next second, a figure stepped in front of her, stretched out a hand, and firmly pressed Yates’s


    head, saying coldly, “Beat it.”


    “Who the hell dares to mess with me, dare to touch my head…” Yates looked up in fury, only to see the


    stern face of Rickon, he immediately put on a smile, “Rickon, long time no see, I really missed you!”


    Rickon emotionlessly pushed Yates away, grabbed Astrid’s hand and walked away, “Star, look at these


    riffraff you attract, not one normal one, they’re all so annoying.”


    Elio and Yates were both speechless.
