Chapter 352
Chapter 352
Her relationship with Elio hadn’t even reached the point where they were considering marriage yet.
They hadn’t even officially started dating! Robb’s jumping the gun here.
However, when Astrid gave Robb’s words some thought, she suddenly realized something critical.
Elio’s brothers had unfortunately died when they were very young, and it was clear some folk in the Lampard family weren’t too
thrilled about Matthew having an
heir!
So, those who kept trying to hurt her, and wanted her to miscarry, were from the Lampard family.
They didn’t want Elio to have an heir.
Just then, Astrid remembered that mysterious text message she’d received before:
She took out her phone to recheck the message, then looked up at Robb and quietly asked, “Any leads on who sent that?”
Robb knew about the assassination attempt when she was pregnant. Robb was smart. Since he’d already dug into the Lampard
family’s dirty laundry, naturally he’d suspect that the person/pulling the strings was from the Lampard family.
Robb turned to her, gently patting her head and said, “Star, I’ll let you in on what you need to know. Don’t worry about the rest, I
just want you to be happy.”
“After all, we’ve already lost you once.”
Astrid looked at Robb, gently wrapping her arm around his, “I know you guys care about me, but I have to get to the bottom of
this. Only by outing the puppeteer can Roman grow up healthy.”
Robb knew Astrid was stubborn, but how could he deny her what she wanted?
Looking at Astrid’s determined eyes, Robb chuckled, “Let me handle this, you just keep chasing your dreams.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll keep you in the loop. There’s stuff you can’t really do while you’re in the industry.”
Plus, there could be danger involved in dealing with this, and he sure as hell wasn’t going to let her risk it.
Astrid smiled and agreed, but she had no intention of leaving it all to Robb. After all, she wanted to understand some things
herself.
The awards ceremony was grand.
“Astrid, the red carpet ceremony is about to start.” Gracie knocked from outside, and Astrid went to open the door.
Gracie was floored when she saw Astrid. She’d always known Astrid was beautiful, but today’s Astrid was a whole other level.
Astrid had transformed into a princess straight out of a castle.
Gracie asked, “Astrid, I thought you said you didn’t like this style?”
Astrid shot Robb a glance, and Gracie immediately got it.
Astrid was the little princess of the Brooke family, so it wasn’t surprising that Robb had his team transform her into this.
Astrid’s dress was a gradient champagne color, her skirt was embellished with diamonds. Her hair was styled in big waves,
making her even more stunning.
What Gracie loved most was Astrid’s set of pink diamond jewelry. She’d never seen diamonds so big and beautiful in her life.
“Alright, let’s go.” Gracie and Astrid got in the elevator together.
Robb picked up his phone and sent a message in the group: “No one better ruin Star’s red carpet moment today, or they’re on
their own.”
Brandon and Jon were working. After receiving the news, they silently informed their team to cancel the red carpet surprise that
had been prepared.
