Chapter 324


    Dale is a shrewd guy. He wouldn’t sign a newbie unless they’ve got the potential to be a superstar.


    So, he was all eyes and ears for Astrid’s performance this time.


    After saying goodbye to the director and other guests, Astrid made her exit..


    Elio followed her out, without uttering a word.


    Just as Astrid reached the door, a cold breeze carrying the chill of the rain hit her.

    She instinctively reached out to keep the rain off, but in the next instant, Elio moved in front, shielding


    her from most of the wind and rain, “You good?


    Astrid took a step back, then looked up at him. There was a hint of annoyance in her tone, “Elio, are


    you stalking me? You have to tag along even when I’m on a show!” “Surviving in the wild is dangerous,


    so I have to protect you.” Elio said while opening his umbre, “Plus, I’m notfortable with you being


    alone with Naylor.” Alone with Naylor?


    Astrid was at a loss for words. With so many crew members around, how could she possibly be alone


    with Naylor?


    These were all excuses.


    Seeing her upset, Elio quietly said, “The storm’s pretty bad tonight, so the flight might get canceled.


    Can I take you to see Colton?”


    “You know where he is?” Astrid frowned, “What else do you know?”


    Elio said, “I also know that you had Keen pretend to be infected to save him. Both Keen’s and Jon’s


    ces were not safe at that time, so I arranged a hiding ce for Colton. Don’t worry. He’s doing well


    now.”


    Astrid didn’t expect Elio to know so much, and that he had been helping behind the scenes.


    If she hadn’t returned to Sunhaven for the press conference today, he probably wouldn’t have told her


    about this.


    Her phone vibrated a few times. She nced at it. It was a message about the flight being canceled.


    A snowstorm wasing.


    “Let’s go.” After saying that, Astrid turned around and walked into the rain.


    Elio tilted the majority of the umbre towards her, leaving most of his body exposed to the rain.


    Once in the car, Astrid noticed his wet clothes and frowned, “Elio, you didn’t have to do that.”


    Elio took off his jacket and put it aside, murmuring, “I might not have done enough when I’m not by your


    side. But when I’m with you, I will protect you with all my heart.” Looking into his sincere eyes, Astrid’s


    heart began to race.


    The honking outside pulled her back to reality. She quickly turned to look out the window, “I don’t need


    your protection. I can take care of myself.”


    Elio said, “I know you’re strong. I won’t take away your right to handle things and won’t interfere with


    your decisions, as long as you’re safe. But some matters are better handled by men.”


    Astrid raised an eyebrow, “Like what?”


    “Uh…” Elio tilted his head, a trace of teasing shing in his eyes, “Like getting rid of bad guys.”


    Astrid was speechless.


    The car gradually came to a stop.


    Carson got out of the car, and opened the umbre and the car door, saying, “Boss, we’re here.”


    Elio got out first, then bent down and said, “You can get out now.”


    After getting out of the car, she saw rows of vis.


    She had only taken a few steps forward when she heard Jon’s voice, “Colton, why are you possessing


    someone else again?”


    Astrid and Elio were both speechless.
