Chapter 218

Chapter 218 Chad rubbed his reddened forehead with a look of injustice, “It was Lamont who said there was a problem!*

Lamont, standing at the door, jumped, “There was a problem!”

Astrid felt a headache coming on as she looked at the trio in front of her, “Never mind, it’s alright now. Chad, you guys go get some rest. I’m giving you a week off, take it easy.”

“A vacation?” Chad was nearly in tears, “Chief, how can we take a vacation right now?”

Hank said, “Chief, we’re the ones dealing with all the important stuff for the company. If you give us a vacation, who will handle the work?”

“You guys can... work remotely. As for contracts and such, you can sign them when you get back. Haha.”

Chad and Hank were left speechless.

They knew this was too good to be true.

But getting out would be good enough.

Once they confirmed there were no issues, Chad and Hank went to rest.

Quincy firmly labeled her as a homewrecker trying to interfere with the boss’s relationship. Even when she tried to contact him using Chad’s online account, he immediately reported it, not giving her a chance to explain.

She tried to locate Quincy, but his firewall was surprisingly strong. She spent a long time breaking through the first layer, only for it to be repaired almost instantly.

Dale called her to participate in a public event. She didn’t have time to deal with Quincy and quickly flew back home.

She planned to launch an all–night attack on Quincy’s firewall once she got back; she didn’t believe there was a firewall she couldn’t break. The day she broke through, the truth would be revealed!

Quincy had no idea that the person he called a “homewrecker” was actually Astrid. He proudly bragged to Elio, “Chief, some shameless woman tried to meddle in your relationship with Ms. Irvine; I gave her a piece of my mind!”

“Keep it up.” Elio replied.

Then he sent Quincy a bonus. Quincy was thrilled to receive the money.

He never imagined he would be scolded by the boss for today’s actions so soon.

Elio wanted to pick up Astrid, but she texted him before boarding the plane and said she had to discuss something with Dale after landing, so he should go ahead with Roman.

On the way, Roman was thrilled and kept singing nursery rhymes.

But Roman’s musical talent was limited; just like Astrid, his singing was terrible.

The father and son duo just stepped out of the elevator and saw a man at Astrid’s door.

It was none other than Hawthorne, who was in a wheelchair.

He looked awful, like death warmed over.

He gave a slight smile upon seeing Elio, “Mr. Lampard, we meet again; are you here to see Astrid too?”

Elio frowned. He went over and entered the code to open the door when he saw Hawthorne’s dire state, “Come in and wait.”

Hawthorne’s hand tightened as he watched Elio effortlessly enter the password.

How would he know Astrid’s home password?

Has he moved in with Astrid?

No way!

How is that possible?

Roman asked, “Do you want me to push your wheelchair?”

“No need, thank you, you’re so cute.” Hawthorne stared at Roman for a while, which made Roman nervous.

Roman scampered behind Elio and clung to his leg, looking at Hawthorne with a bit of fear.

Elio found some tea and made a cup for Hawthorne, “Have some tea and rest; I heard from Astrid that your health isn’t suited for long trips. Why did you come here?”
