Chapter 130
Catching Astrid’s stern look, Thomas immediately realized that he seemed to have made a big mistake,
but it was too late to take it back.
Because the show was live.
“Sorry, teacher. I got carried away and forgot,” Thomas looked a bit pitiful.
Astrid shot him a glare, “Just go, I don’t need you anymore!”
“C’mon, teacher! Without me, would Fannie ever pay for her actions? My kneeling probably scared the
bejesus out of Fannie!” Thomas was all tough on stage, but was totally humble in front of Astrid.
Seeing Astrid ignoring him, he whispered again, “teacher…”
Before Thomas could finish his sentence, he saw Elio walking towards him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe immediately swallowed his words. Someone had tipped him off about the complicated relationship
between Astrid and Elio, so he felt it might be inappropriate for him to be here.
He looked at Astrid, then at Elio, and suddenly felt like a third wheel!
“Teacher, I have some business to take care of, I’ll go first!” Thomas politely nodded to Elio, then
quickly disappeared down the corridor.
“Ms, Irvine?” Elio smiled, “Can I invite you for dinner?”
“No.” Astrid shook her head, “Jon brought Colton Fortner back, they want me to take a look.”
Colton?
Elio’s expression turned cold.
“By the way, you have so much going on at your company, you don’t need to go out of your way to
cheer me up.” Astrid took a few steps forward, turned back and said, “But I’m glad you could come
today.”
Hearing this, Elio’s face lit up, “Where are they? I’ll go with you.”
“No need, Jon is waiting for me outside, you go back and accompany Roman.” After saying that, Astrid
waved at him with a smile and left.
Elio watched her back for a long time until his phone beeped.
He glanced at the message on his phone, his brow furrowed slightly.
“Sir, I’ve brought the guy to the WT Hotel, room 1908.”
Putting his phone back in his pocket, Elio quickly left the hotel.
Half an hour later, Elio arrived outside the hotel room, he rang the doorbell.
A few seconds later, a dark–skinned man opened the door and bowed his head respectfully, “Sir.”
“Hmm.” Elio walked straight in and saw a skinny man tied to a chair.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElio didn’t say much, he just asked, “Tell me, where did you get the kid from three and a half years
ago?”
The man was on the verge of a breakdown, “I’ve said it many times, someone gave me the child. He
gave me money and asked me to leave the child at a designated place. Then he arranged for me to be
smuggled, gave me plastic surgery, and a fake identity.”
“I’ve told you everything I know, I swear! I can’t take it anymore, I can’t!”
Elio understood, the man in front of him was having a drug relapse.
He slowly pulled out a small bag of white powder from his pocket, saying coldly, “Tell the truth, and this
is yours.”
“Tell me everything about the day you picked up the kid.”
“I’m telling the truth! It’s all true! All true!” The man’s eyes widened at the sight of the stuff, he struggled
non–stop, “I’ve told you everything, I remember the child was carried out of a luxury car!”
