Glancing at the rabble in the group chat, Astrid sent out a emoji - an arrow pointing towards the blocked list, with a word [a second
chance for you guys to rephrase]
Robb said, [Star, | would do anything for you, but releasing a new song is out of the question.]
Astrid continued, [Although my singing might not be the best, it's not that terrible, right? | think I'm decent!]
Everyone else went silent for a moment.
Even behind the screen, Astrid could sense their despair, and couldn't help but chuckle. She quickly typed, [Alright, | won't tease
you guys anymore. | actually need something from that guy, I'm not really planning on releasing an album.]
Robb, [Oh, alright. Everyone can disperse now.]
Then, the chatroom went silent within a second, everyone stopped talking.
Astrid was rendered speechless. She sent a message to Dale - [Dale, you big mouth, | just told you about it a second ago and
you've already blabbed to my brother. Can't you keep a secret?]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDale replied, [He was in the shower, | was helping him level up in his game, Star. Are you upset?]
Astrid: [Con, you've also looked into the Lampard family, you know Johnnie is trouble too, you won't object togetting in
touch with him, right?]
Dale replied, [No, to put it simply, among the second generation of the Lampard family, Johnnie and Kermit Lampard are the ones
most likely to challenge Efor the position of CEO at Morgenster Corporation. He has done a lot of bad deeds over the years, |
recently found out that he's been frequently spotted by Roman's kindergarten.] [But at that time, my people, your people, and
Elio's people were all undercover, so he didn't make a move. This guy has bad records, I'll secretly have someone help you. You can
go ahead without worries.]
Astrid replied, [Thanks, bro! Love you!]
Frequently showing up near Roman's kindergarten, he must be planning something against Roman. If he dares to mess with her
son, he's really asking for trouble.
The next day at noon, in a suburban villa.
A thin man was painting in the courtyard when a maid walked in and gently knocked on the door, "Master, your assistant is here."
"Let him in." The man Johnnie replied, not pausing in his painting.
A while later, a man walked in. He glanced at the dark and gruespainting on the easel, quickly moving his gaze, "Sir, |
received an e-mail from Astrid's agent at Starlight Entertainment today, saying that Astrid wants to pay a high price for you to
write a song for her. | thought it was suspicious, so | cto you right away."
"Astrid?" Johnnie muttered the name, slowly putting down his paintbrush, "This woman is interesting. Eorchestrated the car
accident that killed one of our main members, meaning he already knew about the assassin we sent that night. And this woman
dares to contact me? Is she seeking death?"
Johnnie looked harmless with his scholarly demeanor, but his assistant, Larry, had been too scared to look up since he entered,
"Larry."
"Sir, I'm here." Larry responded, bending over, sweat dripping from his forehead.
Johnnie walked to the window, whispering, "Elio's woman, she's indeed a beauty, I'd like to meet her."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLarry replied, "Sir, Astrid is not an ordinary woman. She's fierce and has martial arts training, this..."
"Heh, do you think | can't handle a woman?" Johnnie's voice raised a bit, he picked up a pencil sharpener, approached Larry, and
placed it against his cheek, "Hm? Answer my question."
