Chapter 265
He has always wanted to have a conversation with Astrid.
But, he’s been blocked by Astrid. Even if they met, she would not talk him.
Astrid gave him a side–eye, full of anger inside.
Seeing Elio so pitiful, Roman spoke up for him, “Mom, look at him, he’s so pathetic. Let him explain.”
Astrid didn’t expect Roman to defend Elio.
Although Roman always says no to having a dad, he and Elio have been together for over three years,
it’s impossible for Roman not to have feelings for Elio.
Roman had been missing Elio lately. He actually missed him a lot.
Astrid heard Roman calling “Dad” in his sleep several times at night.
After thinking for a few seconds, Astrid finally said, “Fine, now I’ll ask you some questions. If your
answers don’t satisfy me, I’ll kick you out right away.” “Okay.” Elio agreed without hesitation, as if

Astrid looked at him for a while, then asked, “Tell me, do you really have no other women besides me?”
Elio answered, “I swear, absolutely not.”
Astrid continued, “Since you don’t have a wandering eye, what happened that night?”
Elio finally explained, “I was drugged. I was unconscious that night. When I woke up the next day, you
had already left. So, I didn’t know that the woman that night was you. If I had known it was you, we
would have recognized each other by now! We might even have a second child.”
Astrid angrily said, “Shameless! I don’t want to have a second child with you!” Then she glared at Elio,
“So tell me, is Quincy your guy?”
Elio was surprised, “Yes, did he do something wrong?”
“You go ask him!” Astrid, remembering how she was scolded by Quincy for no reason, was very upset.
She was about to say something about Quincy when her phone rang.
It was from an unfamiliar number.
Astrid motioned for Elio and Roman to be quiet and answered the call, “Hello?”
“Astrid, this is Tania.” Tania’s voice came over, and Astrid raised an eyebrow.
This woman moved so fast.
Astrid hadn’t even settled yesterday’s scores with her, and she was already pursuing it.
Astrid said, “Oh, it’s you. What’s up?”
Tania said, “I recently auditioned for an epic period film Endless Longing. I recommended you to the
director and producers since we’re in the same company. They’re very satisfied with you and would like
to meet you.”
“Wow, an epic period film?” Astrid pretended to be surprised, “Can I really do it?”
“The cast are all top stars, and there are many veteran actors. Do I really stand a chance?”
“Of course.” Tania didn’t expect Astrid to agree so quickly, so she continued, “How about this, are you
available tonight? I’ve arranged to have dinner with the producer and director, would you like to join

us?”
“I’m available tonight. So, see you tonight. Thanks a lot, Tania.” Astrid hung up, her lips curling up
slightly, “Elio, I have things to do today, so I won’t bicker with you. You should leave now.”
Elio: “Are you going to a social event? I’ll go with you.”
“You’re going with me? No thanks.” Astrid shook her head, “In what capacity are you going with me?”
Elio: “Boss? Boyfriend? Or, the father of your child.”
“Elio!” Astrid gritted her teeth, “Stop making a scene.”
Seeing Astrid about to blow up, Elio quickly backed down, “Okay, I won’t go.”
Anyway, if she didn’t take him, he could go by himself. Finding the location shouldn’t be too hard.
Astrid gave Elio a big eye roll and went straight to contact Chad.
It was definitely a crucial moment tonight. She must be fully prepared to prevent any mishaps.
Just as she was about to call Chad, Chad called her first. She answered the phone, and Chad’s loud
scream came from the other end, “Chief, oh my god, something big happened! Mr. Hamilton is back!”
Astrid was taken aback, “Oh my God? Where is he?”
Chad: “According to the location… at your front door!”
