“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
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwife!” 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

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
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmup. 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.
