NovelEnglishAstrid had her suspicions for quite stime, and the breadcrumbs of evidence were slowly coming together.
Yet, she wouldn't just lump everything into one messy pile.
With a casual lowering of her eyelids, she drawled a response, "lI don't need anyone dictating my life. Whom | choose to spend my

If someone | care about is harmed, I'll cafter your son. Don't believe me? Just try me!"
With that, Astrid ended the call.
She turned around to see Parrish and the others staring at her, dumbfounded.
Parrish snapped out of it after a few seconds, "Holy smokes, Astar, you were freaking awesome. Jay from Morgenster Corporation is
a top dog, and you just chewed him out like he was nothing. What an epic!"

Elio's words sent the bodyguards into disarray.
Could this brazen flirt really be their notoriously ruthless and cold-hearted boss?
Was he calling himself handsome?
Sure, he had good looks, but it was weird hearing it from his mouth!
Love didn’t just corrupt but also blind!
Gifting the entire Morgenster Corporation? Parrish was starstruck, but Astrid was unimpressed, giving him an eye roll, "As if I'm
interested in your little empire. It's not like | don’t have my own."

With a week to go for the live stream, the production team promoted the silhouette of a new guest.
It was just a shadow, but the outline of that guitar-carrying figure stirred up a storm of guesses.
[Wow, just from the silhouette, you can tell he's a heartthrob! I'm smitten!]
[Who could that be? Isn't that Nathan Brooke? My lead singer! If so, I'm losing it!]
[Holy cow, is this our idol's variety show debut?]
[Didn't he just support Astar on social media? Is he going star chasing?]
[Ah, | can't wait! What kind of sparks will fly between him and Astar?]
[Uh oh, Mr. Lampard, the jealous king, is probably stewing. Nathan is handsome, amiable, and talented, a formidable rival for sure!]
The discussion on this mysterious guest was heated.
While netizens were abuzz with speculation, the production team dropped another bombshell, a female guest silhouette.
But the hype was noticeably dimmer.
Minutes passed with only a smattering of comments, mostly asking, [Who is she?]
