Chapter 16
Upon hearing this, a glimmer sparked in Ello’s eyes, and he quietly said, “I don’t mind.”
Astrid. “What?”
“It’s Roman who wants to invite you over He’s worried about you” Elio explained Astrid looked down at
the little boy by her side.
Roman was shaking her hand, his eyes full of anticipation
Seeing that Astrid didn’t respond. Roman stretched out his chubby hand and held up his Index finger,
signaling that he only wanted her to stay for one night. Looking at his adorable face, Astrid was
wavering Then Roman played his trump card. He put his chubby hands together and begged cutely,
“Please, please..” Astrid was immediately defeated by his cuteness She hugged him and gave him a
kiss. “Okay, my little cutie, Stop being so irresistible. I’ll do whatever you want. Let’s go!” Anyhow, if Els
dared to try anything funny, she would give him a good beating!
Seeing Roman’s successful grin, Elio couldn’t Help but frown When did this little guy become so
shameless? NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
He used to look down on his colleagues kids for acting cute, but look at him now, he was even more
shameless,
But it was because of Astrid’s presence that Roman started behaving like a normal kid.
Once they got in the car, Roman immediately handed over the toy he brought with him to Astrid, as if it
was some sort of treasure.
Astad took the Optimus Prime toy and patted Roman’s head. “Thank you. I love it.”
Upon hearing that Astrid liked it, Roman smiled; his eyes were full of joy.
It was nearly eleven o’clock, way past Roman’s bedtime. Not long after, Roman fell asleep In Astrid’s
arms.
Watching Roman sleep soundly, Ello whispered, “Ms. Irvine, thank you.”
Astrid was taken aback, “Thank you for what? I should be the one thanking Mr. Lampard for taking me
in tonight.”
“If you don’t mind, Ms. Irvine, I can take you in for the rest of your life. Ello’s words startled Astrid, and
she suddenly felt trapped.
“Hehe.” Astrid showed an awkward but polite smile, “Mr. Lampard, are you confessing your feelings to
me?”
Elio looked at the girl who was so close to him, remained silent for a few seconds, then nodded, “Yes,”
Astrid was taken aback, but she wasn’t one of those nalve girls who would lose their sense of reason
easily. She curlously asked, “Why?”
Elio answered, “Because I dreamt of you last night..
Astrid was confused. What kind of logic was that? Confessing just because you dreamt of me? Was It
love at first sight?
But he didn’t seem like the love–at–first–sight type, considering his stern face. Anybody confessing
wouldn’t do so with a face that looked like they were about to eat someone. And his confession was too
abrupt.
Before Astrid could speak, Elio added, “You are the first woman to appear in my dreams in many years.
That must be what they call… a lover in dreams.”
As he spoke these words, he was very close to Astrid. The breath from his words gently brushed
Astrid’s ear, making her feel a bit uncomfortable and shift slightly to the side.
A lover in dreams? Oh boy, that was so out of style!
Astrid wasn’t afraid of anything, except straight guys spouting lovey–dovey lines! There were many
straight guys among those who had pursued her, but compared to Ello, they were nothing.
