Chapter 192
Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)
Chapter 192 Robb sent me a message: âI cut off the internet, so your takeout might not be happening today. Iâve got food in the kitchen. Chow down and hit the hay early.â
This ticked Dale off. He angrily thumped the window a few times, but what can you do? He took his grumbling to the shower and got ready for bed.
When Astrid rocked up at the Bush Bar, the bouncers were already there waiting.
She didnât roll up in her flashy car to keep things under the radar but took a cab instead.
As soon as she stepped out, the bouncer Fenton hustled over.
Seeing Astrid all geared up, Fenton quickly dropped what he was doing and said, âMs. Irvine, youâre here?â
Robb had asked him to prepare a mask, hat, and sunglasses for Ms. Irvine, but Astrid had already sorted that out.
âYeah, follow me.â Astrid quickly headed into the bar. The security inside saw Astrid coming in with a posse and were quick to try and stop them.
âIâm here to find someone,â Astrid said coolly, with a hint of politeness.
âYou can go in, but the bodyguards canât.â
Naturally, the bodyguards werenât about to let Astrid go in alone. Fenton stepped forward and said sternly, âWeâre just here to find someone; weâre not looking for trouble. But if youâre not cool with that, we can play hardball.â
âHardball?â The guy laughed mockingly. âYouâve got numbers, but weâre not shortâstaffed either. Iâd love to see how youâre going to play hardball.â
âYou guys want to start something? Do you know who owns this bar?â
âGet over here now! Weâve got troublemakers!â He called his mates over the walkieâtalkie, then sized up the slight figure before him.
He thought Astrid was just some rich girl looking for her boyfriend, so he laughed and said, âIâve seen loads like you. Clingy and annoying.â
As soon as he finished, a bunch of security guys swarmed over.
The tension was palpable; a fight could break out any second.

ï¤Chapter 4596 A guy smoking a cigar and wearing a chunky gold chain walked over just then. He looked at Astrid and sneered, âDo you know who I am? Youâve got some nerve trying to mess with my turf.â
Astrid looked at the guy in front of her and scoffed, âSo youâre the boss here?â
âYep, thatâs me. And as long as Iâm the boss, youâre not setting foot in this bar!â
âOh? Is that so?â Astrid blinked, âHow much for this bar? Iâm thinking about buying it.â
âBuy?â The guy burst out laughing, âYou canât afford it! The last time someone offered 10 million, I didnât sell. You think hiring a few bodyguards makes you a rich kid?â
âA little girl is trying to play rich and look for trouble. Let me tell you we value our customersâ privacy here. Iâm not letting you in today!â
âIâll give you 15 million. Iâm buying.â
â15 million?â The guy was so shocked he could barely speak. He was in debt from gambling and wanted to sell the bar for a while, but the offers were too low with the highest being only 9 million.
