Chapter 350
He was wearing a long black down jacket, but she still recognized him at first glance.
He could’ve just waited in the car to pick her up, but why pretend to be one of her fans?
After interacting with her fans for a bit, Astrid stepped out. Carson Fisher was already waiting for her in his car. As soon as he
saw her, he drove over, “Ms. Irvine, please.”
Carson was driving a stretch business car. Gracie and Selena voluntarily sat in the back. Shortly after, Elio got in too.
He slowly took off his mask, his hands a bit red from the cold.
Astrid asked, “Why are you pretending to be my fan?”

Elio answered, “I’m not pretending. I’ve always been a fan. I just wanted to experience what it feels like to watch you as a fan.”
He then turned to look at her, “Do you want me to accompany you on the red carpet?”
Astrid rejected him without a second thought, “No need. I’ll walk with my ‘male co–star. It’s a good promotion for our TV show.”
Hearing the words ‘male co–star‘, Elio frowned slightly, “But we’re also a pair. Many video makers have made clips of us
interacting. I’ve been quite popular on TikTok recently.”
Both Gracie and Selena were rendered speechless.
Was this really Elio? He knew about TikTok?
The image of Elio giggling while watching videos on his phone sent a shiver down their spines.
Terrifying.
Absolutely terrifying.
Astrid said, “I agreed to ride in your car today just to remind you not to pull any stunts on the red carpet!” Her last red carpet
experience was a disaster and it left a deep scar.
Just as she was about to continue, the car suddenly stopped.
Carson said, “Boss, we’re in trouble.”
Astrid peeked out and saw Robb’s car and his team.
She hadn’t seen Robb in a long time. She immediately got out of the car and ran to him, jumping into his arms, “Robb!”
Robb asked, “Why are you riding in his car? Haven’t we got any cars?”
Astrid replied, “I had something to discuss with him. That’s why I took his car. How come you’re free to pick me up today?”
Robb said, “I was on a business trip in J City. As soon as I heard you were coming, I dropped everything to pick you up.” He
gently tapped Astrid’s forehead, “I’ve prepared your dress and makeup team. You’ll steal the show as soon as you walk in.”
Astrid always feels safe with Robb, “Thank you.”
She told Carson, “Please take Gracie and Selena to the ceremony. Bye~” Then, she arm–in–arm with Robb, got into his car.
Gracie and Selena didn’t want to be in the same space as Elio. They immediately got out of the car, “We won’t bother you,
Carson. We’re going shopping. We’ll hail a
cab ourselves.”
Carson said, “Alright. Stay safe.”
Elio, left in the car, took a look at the dress he prepared for Astrid and sighed, “Carson, let’s go.”
“Sure, boss.” Carson was truly worried for him. For all the other brothers of Astrid, Elio could always find ways to deal with them,
but Robb was a formidable
opponent.
Perhaps, the real challenge wasn’t Astrid’s brothers, but Mr. Brooke overseas.
This was tough.
Elio was daydreaming when Roman video–called him. As soon as he answered, Roman’s face appeared on the screen,
cheerfully asking, “Elio, where’s my mom?T can’t reach her!”
“I’ve arrived at the hotel, waiting to meet mom!”
Elio replied, “Your mom was taken away by Robb.”
Taken away?
Roman’s face fell and he immediately hung up the video call.
Elio was speechless.
