Chapter 268
Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)
Chapter 268 Elioâs phone suddenly buzzed. He took it out and saw a message from Quincy: âBoss, the big shot from ShadowBloodFest is in Sunhaven. Our guys just had a runâin with them a couple of days ago. He might come looking for you soon. Iâve arranged for some guys to protect you in secret. Be careful yourself.â
Elio: âAlright.â
Recalling what Astrid had said before, Elio asked, âDid you piss off my wife?â
Quincy: âIâm innocent! Iâve been hoping youâd bring your wife home sooner. Iâve dealt with so many people who want to mess up your relationship!â
Elio: âConfess now and maybe youâll get off lighter.â
Quincy: âI swear I didnât do anything! I never even talked to your wife. How could possibly piss her off? And Iâve been very wellâbehaved lately. Apart from cursing out that shameless PhoenixRuler, I havenât pissed off anyone else!â
PhoenixRuler?
Elio furrowed his brow slightly. Looking at Astrid, who was helping Roman get dressed, he suddenly remembered her recent trip abroad. Quincy mentioned something about meeting someone back then.
But that meeting never happened due to some circumstances.
Elio: âWhat did that woman tell you? Why would you think sheâs trying to mess up our relationship?â
Quincy, who had just received the message, felt something was off. His boss seemed especially strange tonight.
Why did he sense a hint of danger from his words?
But then, he thought, he was just defending his bossâs love life. He did nothing wrong!
With that, Quincy replied: âShe asked if I was with my boss in Sunhaven over four years ago. Then it clicked. If sheâs asking about you like this, isnât she trying to ruin your marriage?â
Quincy: âSo I gave her a piece of my mind. She even messaged me from a different account! So I announced on social media sheâs trying to break up your marriage and blocked and reported her!â
Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)
Elio looked at Quincyâs messages and couldnât help but furrow his brow.
He knew Quincy was a drama queen who loved watching soap operas and had a wild imagination. But he never expected Quincy to label someone as a threat to their relationship based on a single question.
Thinking about Astridâs reaction to Quincyâs name, Elio knew what was going on.
PhoenixRuler? That username did seem like her style.
That night over four years ago, Quincy was by his side.
She probably found Quincy and wanted to figure out who he was through Quincy. But she was mistaken for a threat by Quincy, who was too nosy for his own good, and got a good scolding and was blocked.
So, he could have met her sooner.
But because of Quincy, not only did they not recognize each other, but Astridâs hatred towards him increased.
Elio: âQuincy, you like watching soap operas, right? How about I give you a break and you can bingeâwatch to your heartâs content?â
Quincy: âI donât want a break. I love my job!â
Elio: âIâll have Carson Fisher make some arrangements for you. Youâre leaving tonight for the Arctic. Thereâs a project there that needs your attention.â
The Arctic?
Go to the Arctic to watch TV operas?
Quincy: âBoss, did I do something wrong?â
Elio: âThe woman you cursed out is my wife.â
Quincy was speechless.
Holy cow?
