Chapter 363

Chapter 363 Astrid wouldn’t open the door, so Rickon thought an annoying reporter had snuck in. He stepped forward, pulling Astrid behind him, and then opened the door.

As soon as the door was opened, Yates perked up. Seeing Rickon at the door, his smile froze on his face. “Rickon, what are you doing here?”

His gaze swept across the other people in the room. Yates instantly knew he was in hot water and tried to run away!

But he was grabbed by the collar. By the time he realized what was happening, he was thrown onto a chair by Rickon, with everyone else staring at him like he was under interrogation.

Rickon chuckled, “Do you make a habit of disturbing Astrid at night?”

“No, not at all,” Yates shook his head. “I don’t have the nerve! I just saw someone attacking Astrid online today, so I came to comfort her.”

Brandon patted Yates on the shoulder. “Didn’t I warn you not to bother Astrid?”

“Yes, yes, you did.” Normally, Yates was a bit of a loose cannon, but whenever he saw anyone from the Brooke family, he turned into a scared rat.

After all, they were not to be messed with. “I just want to be friends with her, I won’t bother her anymore, Brandon, trust me.

“Trust you?” Jon scoffed. “You’re as trustworthy as a three–dollar bill. Stay away from Astrid, you playboy!”

Yates was speechless.

What rotten luck he had today!

If he’d known these guys were here, he wouldn’t have shown up!

He shot Astrid a pleading look, but she was engrossed in watching cartoons with Roman.

Seeing Brandon start to crack his knuckles, Yates blurted out, “Rickon, there’s no need! Really no need! I’ll leave right away, right away!

Brandon: “Don’t bother Astrid again.”

“Got it, got it!” After his words, Yates was kicked out of the room. He looked at the closed door and let out a long sigh.

With all these people protecting Astrid, she’d have a hard time getting hitched!

But he wouldn’t give up. He was only saying he wouldn’t bother her just to save his own skin.

Anyway, these guys all have their own things going on. They won’t stick around for long, and then he’ll be back in the game!

Yates went to call the elevator when his butler rang him. He answered, “Yeah?”

Butler said, “Mr. Hamilton, you’d better hurry back home. There’s trouble!”

“Trouble? What trouble?” Yates responded nonchalantly.

Butler replied, “A bunch of women showed up. They’re all claiming to be your girlfriends, and three of them even say they’re pregnant. You’d better come back ASAP!”

His girlfriends??

Yates’s voice hardened. “I don’t have any girlfriends!”

Butler said, “Well, they all have pictures with you on their phones. You know how your parents have been dying for a grandchild. Now there are three on the way. They’re over the moon. If you don’t come back, things might get out of hand!”

“How could they possibly be pregnant!” Yates protested loudly. “Let alone three of them!”

People in the elevator gave him surprised looks when they heard his words.

Yates noticed and felt a bit embarrassed. He coughed lightly, “Alright, alright, I’ll be right there!”

Back at the hotel, as Elio was about to rest, he received a message from Carson, “Mr. Lampard, everything’s been handled. Yates has left.”

Chapter 364 Elio replied, “Alright, keep an eye on him.”

Carson said, “Yeah, Boss, I noticed something odd. Robb seems to be investigating the Lampard family.”

Investigating the Lampard family?

Elio was quiet for a few seconds, “Stay out of it, pretend we didn’t notice. If he wants to dig, let him do it.”

Carson replied, “Yes.”

In fact, Elio knew why Robb was investigating the Lampard family. It was because Robb was worried about his sister, Astrid, getting hurt. Gotta hand it to Robb, he was sharp.

Indeed, the Brooke family wasn’t as harmonious as it appeared on the surface, with chaos lurking behind the scenes.

Elio didn’t get a tiny bit of sleep that night.

Early the next morning, Elio went to Astrid’s door and knocked, only to find the mother and son fully decked out in matching outfits.

Gotta admit, Elio felt a pang of jealousy.

Because he was always left out when this mother and son duo went out to play.

Upon seeing Elio, Roman was quite dismissive, “What brings you here, Elio?“!!

Elio asked, “Where are you guys headed?”

“I haven’t spent time with Roman for a while. My flight got canceled because of the weather, so I thought I’d take him to see his favorite movie.” Astrid held Roman, feeling quite content.

“Movie?” Elio paused, “I’ll come along Roman asked, “Don’t you hate anime movies?”

Busted again, Elio felt like punching Roman, don’t like anime movies, but I like watching your mum.

Roman and Astrid Were both speechless.

That came out of nowhere. But man, this guy’s flirting game hadn’t improved a bit.

Roman didn’t want Elio to come at first, but seeing Elio looking all pitiful, he said, “Mum, let’s take Elio. We need a driver.”

Hearing this, Elio gave Roman a look. Finally, Roman was on his side.

The thought of the three of them munching on popcorn and watching a movie made Elio feel a tinge of anticipation.

Astrid knew Roman wanted Elio to come, so she nodded, “Alright then...”

Before she could finish her sentence, the elevator doors opened and four tall figures walked out.

Seeing two of them, Roman was taken aback, because they were decked out in Pikachu from head to toe, and they looked identical!

“Star!” Edgar Brooke lunged in for a hug. Astrid quickly held out a hand to block him, “What are you guys doing here?”

“Even Nash Brooke is here, this must be serious!”

“Let’s talk inside. You guys are attracting way too much attention. Next thing you know, the paparazzi are going to accuse me of having a private meeting with several men in a hotel!” Saying this, Astrid went back into the room.

Elio was completely ignored, but he didn’t leave. Instead, he followed them into the room.

Roman stared wide–eyed at Edgar and Edwin Brooke’s Pikachu outfits, he was over the moon!

Edgar noticed the kid’s gaze and immediately took out a cute Pikachu–themed outfit from his backpack, “Roman, I’m Edgar. This is a gift for you. It matches the outfit I’m wearing!”

“Thank you! I love you!” Roman was thrilled as he hugged the outfit tightly. Then, the other three also gave Roman gifts.

Roman was beyond pleased with every single gift!

Roman grinned, “Mum, do I have other relatives? I want more gifts!”

Hearing this, Elio wanted to kick this kid out.

He already had eight relatives!

Does he really need more?

Just then, Nathan Brooke turned his head to look at Elio.

Elio greeted first, “Hi there, I’m Elio.”

Nash glanced at Elio, pulling out a transparent bottle from his bag, Seeing the liquid in the bottle, Nathan was immediately taken aback!

Isn’t this the stuff he said he’d use to blow up the bad guys?
