Chapter 266
“Ding–dong, ding–dong~” The doorbell rang, sending a chill down Astrid’s spine.
What a bummer.
Elio noticed Astrid’s face turn sour. Even though the doorbell was ringing, she didn’t seem to want to
answer it. So, he decided to do it himself.
“Hold up!” Astrid stopped him, “Elio, let me handle this!”
Astrid’s expression was a bit strange.
This piqued Elio’s curiosity about who could be at the door.
The doorbell kept ringing. Astrid took a deep breath, then reached out and opened the door. As soon
as she did, a bunch of random stuff flew towards her face.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to cut ties with me? Weren’t you the one who said we should go our
separate ways, that we wouldn’t have anything to do with each other anymore? Why are you back?”
“I took a stroll around the world, realized only you’re worthy of me, so here I am,” a teasing voice rang
out, and a handsome man appeared at the door. He was in his twenties, with a blue diamond earring in
his left ear. He had an indescribable charm about him, and his smile was breathtaking, “Astrid, really,
you moved on so quickly and got a new boyfriend?”
Elio looked at Yates, his face expressionless, “Astrid, who is this? Aren’t you going to introduce us?”
Astrid: “He is…”
“I’m Yates. Astrid always has a thing for handsome men. Don’t take this relationship too seriously, or
you will get hurt.” Yates looked up at the tall man in front of him, praising Elio without hesitation, “I have
to say, my Astrid, your taste has improved quite a bit. This man is definitely top–tier!”
“Your Astrid?” Elio’s tone was icy, “The mother of my child, when did she become yours?”
“Astrid and I grew up together, we’ve been good friends since kindergarten,” Yates didn’t care about
Elio’s cold tone at all, “And besides, I already knew she had a kid, but I don’t mind at all.”
He walked straight into the house. Seeing all the kids‘ toys in the room, his face changed slightly. He
turned to Astrid with a wounded look, “Astrid, you guys are already living together?”
“How many times have I told you, what happened when we were kids was just child’s play. Stop
bringing it up every time!” Seeing the man in front of her gave Astrid a headache, “I have a child with
him.”
“So what if you have a child? Are you guys married?” Yates flopped onto the bed, “Even if you are, you
can still get a divorce. You’ll eventually realize that it’s only you and me who are meant to be. Everyone

“Oh yeah, get me a glass of water.” Yates opened a bag of chips and started ordering Elio around.
Elio didn’t get angry, instead, he went to make some coffee.
This surprised Astrid.
Elio, the big boss, can be manipulated at will?
That was really unusual.
Astrid turned to look at Yates‘ annoying face, “Elio, don’t mind him, I’ll get rid of him right away!”
“How dare you make others make coffee for you? Don’t you have hands and feet?
“Yates, get up right now, stop loafing around here!” Astrid went over and grabbed Yates by the collar,
but Yates held onto the edge of the couch and refused to leave.
