Love in the Limelight

“I love mom the most too. Dig in!” Roman said happily, looking at Astrid, “Mom, you’re so pretty, even eating looks good on you!”
Gracie, watching the mother and son in front of her, suddenly remembered someone, “Oh yeah, Astrid, why isn’t Mr. Lampard
here?”
“He went straight to an emergency meeting at his company after getting off the plane. Seems like there’s some trouble at the
company.” Astrid replied, taking another two bites of her meal, “Plus, why would I bring him home for dinner?”
“Astrid, haven’t you noticed?” Gracie asked.
“Noticed what?” Astrid paused, her hand was in mid-air.
“Didn’t you see Elio’s overflowing love for you?” Gracie finished, as Astrid made a face of discontent.
“It’s not just me saying it, netizens are saying it too. They even say that the show’s name, ‘Adventures in the Abyss’, isn’t
accurate enough because a lot of the content is about Elio chasing after his beloved wife!” Gracie added, leaving Astrid
speechless.
“You know, seeing all these things that this high and mighty CEO is doing to win you over, it’s actually quite amusing! So there
are women that even he can’t get, ha-ha.” Gracie laughed uproariously, turning on the TV to watch the show’s replay while
eating.
It was only after watching the show that Astrid realized, Elio’s gaze seemed to be glued to her. Every time the camera panned to
him, he was looking at her. It was impossible to ignore.

After dinner, Gracie started playing video games on the couch. Roman was lying in Astrid’s lap watching cartoons. The two of
them were laughing and chatting, when suddenly there was a shout, “I want to use this character. Help me win.”
“Don’t worry, I believe in you. You can definitely win!”
If she hadn’t heard it with her own ears, Astrid wouldn’t have believed that such a gentle voice could come from Gracie’s mouth.
Initially, she didn’t believe Roman when he said that Gracie had an online love interest, but now she did!
In just ten days, her Gracie had been completely smitten by someone. To make a rough woman so gentle, it must be true love!
Despite her curiosity, Astrid didn’t ask any more questions.
Just as a game ended, Gracie suddenly asked, “Astrid, do you guys want to play together?”
Astrid and Roman said in unison, “Sure!”
Astrid immediately logged in, curious to see the person who had Gracie so enchanted.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join &

But before they could form a team, Elio called. Before her finger could even touch the answer button, Roman’s little finger had
already done it for her.
Elio asked, “Astrid, have you had dinner yet?”
Astrid said, “Yes, what’s up?”
Elio said, “Nothing, just missing you.”

Hearing his words, Astrid felt a chill run down her spine. She said, “If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up. I have to watch TV
with Roman.”
After hanging up, Astrid turned to see Gracie had already started a new game. She hadn’t really had a chance to rest properly
while on the island, so she started feeling sleepy after a while of watching TV.
Before long, she fell asleep.
Roman fetched a small blanket and covered Astrid with it, then turned the TV volume down with the remote.
Worried that the noise from Gracie’s game would wake Astrid, he led Gracie into the guest room and closed the door.
After doing all this, Roman returned to the couch, slid under the blanket beside Astrid, and quietly resumed watching TV.
