Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)

Chapter 268

Elio’s phone suddenly buzzed. He took it out and saw a message from Quincy: “Boss, the big shot from

ShadowBloodFest is in Sunhaven. Our guys just had a run–in with them a couple of days ago. He

might come looking for you soon. I’ve arranged for some guys to protect you in secret. Be careful

yourself.”

Elio: “Alright.”

Recalling what Astrid had said before, Elio asked, “Did you piss off my wife?”

Quincy: “I’m innocent! I’ve been hoping you’d bring your wife home sooner. I’ve dealt with so many

people who want to mess up your relationship!”

Elio: “Confess now and maybe you’ll get off lighter.”

Quincy: “I swear I didn’t do anything! I never even talked to your wife. How could possibly piss her off?

And I’ve been very well–behaved lately. Apart from cursing out that shameless PhoenixRuler, I haven’t

pissed off anyone else!”

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: “What did that woman tell you? Why would you think she’s trying to mess up our relationship?”

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 boss’s love life. He did nothing wrong!

With that, Quincy replied: “She asked if I was with my boss in Sunhaven over four years ago. Then it

clicked. If she’s asking about you like this, isn’t she trying to ruin your marriage?”

Quincy: “So I gave her a piece of my mind. She even messaged me from a different account! So I

announced on social media she’s trying to break up your marriage and blocked and reported her!”

Elio looked at Quincy’s messages and couldn’t 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 Astrid’s reaction to Quincy’s 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 Astrid’s hatred towards him

increased.

Elio: “Quincy, you like watching soap operas, right? How about I give you a break and you can binge–

watch to your heart’s content?”

Quincy: “I don’t want a break. I love my job!”

Elio: “I’ll have Carson Fisher make some arrangements for you. You’re leaving tonight for the Arctic.

There’s a project there that needs your attention.”

The Arctic?

Go to the Arctic to watch TV operas?

Quincy: “Boss, did I do something wrong?”

Elio: “The woman you cursed out is my wife.”

Quincy was speechless.

Holy cow?
