Chapter 278


    “Rickon, what brings you here all of a sudden?” Astrid grabbed Rickon’s arm, “You don’t want to give


    me more money again, do you?”


    Rickon cast a sidelong nce at the girl beside him, her smile brights, and whispered, “Do you have


    any money left?”


    Sure enough, Rickon always thought she was short on money.


    Rickon didn’t say much, just pulled Astrid into the car and shut the door.


    Then he turned to Elio behind him: “Thanks for helping Star move today, but that’s it. I don’t care about


    the past, but you can’t make up for the harm Star had suffered just by doing these little things. I’m


    talking to you calmly now, just because of your other identity. If Robb Brooke were here, he probably


    wouldn’t be so kind.”


    Rickon opened the car door, about to get in, when Elio said, “I never thought that these little things I did


    could make up for anything. I never make excuses for the past. We missed a chance four years ago,


    but this time I will not give up on her.”


    Rickon paused slightly.


    He looked up at Elio, then didn’t say anything else.


    Rickon drove off, followed closely by the movingpany’s truck.


    Yates still had his usual yful smile, “Elio, I used to think–Astrid’s brothers all hated me, but seeing


    you, I think I might not be the most hated one, hahaha…”


    After a while, Yates’sughter slowly faded.


    Because he noticed that the gentlemanly Elio in front of Rickon now seemed like apletely different


    person.


    His sharp gaze made him feel a bit ufortable.

    Elio: “Have you had enoughughs?”


    Yates didn’t answer.


    Elio bent down, elegantly adjusting his shirt cuffs, “Don’t make a fuss in front of me, I’m in a good mood


    today so I won’t bother with you. If youugh again, you’ll have to face the consequences.”


    Carson was used to his Chief’s strong aura, but was still taken aback.


    He quickly opened the car door, Elio took a few steps and then looked back at Yates, “By the way, did


    you like the coffeest time? I have plenty more, can give it to you for free.”


    With that, Elio got in the car.


    Yates watched the car drive away, kicked a can at his feet, “Elio, we’ll see.”


    In the car, Carson was driving while ncing at Elio, then a cold voice came from behind, “Carson, can


    you drive more seriously?”


    Carson: “Boss, I noticed something, I don’t know if I should say it or not.”


    Elio: “Go on.”


    “Well…” Carson organized his thoughts a bit, “I noticed that ever since you met Ms. Irvine, you’ve


    be more gentle. If it was you before, you would’ve‘ kicked Yates out at his arrogant behavior. But


    you didn’t eveny a hand on him just now!”


    Elio: “Was I really that violent before?”


    “Yes, yes, yes.” Carson nodded frantically, “Remember that Vice–Chairman of Euphoria Entertainment?


    You almost kicked him, didn’t you?”


    Elio: “That’s because he tried to push women into my hotel room. He deserved it.”
