Chapter 98
A magician who bagged an international prize said his ultimate dream is to get guidance from Astrid?
What was the deal with that?
Was Astrid really that big a deal in the magic world?
Everyone was scratching their heads over it.
After the interview, Locke carefully guarded his autographed shirts and told people to keep their
distance and not touch his clothes.
The thought of being close and personal with the legendary Astrid had him on cloud nine, almost
forgetting about the people around him.
He noticed a familiar face as he was about to head home with a spring in his step.
Joana was pondering how to greet Locke when she noticed him staring at her, which made her

After a while, Locke suddenly approached her, grinning, “I know you!”
“Do you?” Joana’s face lit up, “Really?”
“Yeah, you’re the actress who co-starred with Ms. Irvine in that TV show. I heard online chatter about
you two not getting along, saying you were giving her the cold shoulder on set.”
“You better not be messing with Ms. Irvine. She’s so sweet, gentle, and adorable; she probably doesn’t
even know how to argue. If I find out you’re bullying her, I won’t let you off the hook!” Locke finished,
then sauntered off.
Joana was fuming. Astrid was sweet, gentle, and adorable? And she didn’t know how to argue?
Remembering what happened in the car, Joana still got chills.
She was so into Locke, but Locke only had eyes for Astrid, “Astrid isn’t as perfect as you think…”
“No matter what she’s like, she’s irreplaceable to me! You can’t badmouth her, or I’ll have a bone to
pick with you!”

With that, Locke made a fist and snorted, then walked off.
“What’s so great about doing a magic trick!” Joana muttered unhappily, striding towards the interview
site, her mind filled with curse words for Astrid.
Meanwhile, Elio was waiting for Astrid in his car.
But after a long wait, Astrid was nowhere in sight. Just as he was about to make a call, a stretch Rolls-
Royce Phantom pulled up.
It stopped right behind his car.
Astrid’s eyes lit up at the sight of the Rolls-Royce Phantom.
She received a message and came right out. Her bro was always on time.
A few seconds later, the window rolled down, and a hand waved at her from inside the car.

Although Astrid was slightly annoyed by the gesture, she still happily ran over.
The car door opened, and Robb was inside, holding a glass of red wine, looking elegant and charming.
Astrid stared at him, her eyes sparkling.
Robb looked down and smiled indulgently. He knew what made Astrid’s eyes sparkle wasn’t him, but
the red wine in his hand, “Star, what are you doing? Get in already.”
He didn’t really plan to drink the wine. He poured it to tease Astrid.
“Bro, wait a sec.” Astrid briskly walked over to Elio’s car and knocked on his window.
She smiled as the window rolled down and said, “Mr. Lampard, I have something to do. I have to go
now. Bye.”
“Hmm.” Elio nodded calmly, but he was actually very anxious inside.
He was dying to know who was in that car, but he was afraid it was her brother again, just like last time.
So, even though he was unhappy, Elio didn’t show any signs of it.
