Chapter 229
Roman messed up all of Elio's subsequent plans, but even if he was angry, there was nothing he could do about it. After all, Astrid was on Roman's side.
The Lambert issue was not over yet. Astrid had just returned home when a strange number called her.
She didn't answer the first time, but when they called again, she picked up. "Hello"
"Is this Astrid? I'm Queenie, Mr. Lambert's agent. Can we meet somewhere?' Queenie was very humble, with a hint of flattery in her tone.
Astrid could naturally guess that Queenie was looking for her mainly to help Lambert save face.
But how could she possibly help such a scumbag?
Astrid turned down Queenie without any hesitation. "There's no need to meet. Everyone must pay for their actions, and Mr. Lambert is not worthy of my sympathy"
Queenie on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds. She didn't expect Astrid to be so firm. "Ms. Irvine, if you don't help Mr. Lambert, he won't make your life easy in the entertainment industry." "Do you really think Elio will protect you forever? He's just playing with you. How could such a prominent family like the Lampard family look up to a poor girl like you?"
Astrid laughed as she listened to Queenie's sarcastic words. "I'm a poor girl? Then what are you? A trashy woman?"
When I won the Global Magic Contest last year, my prize money was five million dollars. Do you ever have three million dollars?"
Five million dollars?
That's not a small amount.
Queenie didn't know much about the Global Magic Contest, so she didn't know that the first prize was that much.
Astrid chuckled at Queenie's silence. She hadn't even mentioned her billions in pocket money yet, was she scared already by a few million dollars? And she wanted to negotiate with her at this level?
What trash!
Queenie replied. "Five million dollars is just a small amount. Mr. Lambert was ranked fifth on the domestic rich list last year."
Astrid sneered, "What kind of rich list is that? My name isn't on it. It's definitely fake and not authoritative at all."
Queenie looked down on Astrid. She thought she was just a nouveau riche who hadn't seen the world, trying to get on the rich list with just a few million dollars?
Seeing that Queenie didn't speak, Astrid continued. "And you're quite funny. My name isn't mentioned in the trending topics either, so what's the use of you looking for me?"
"I just want to find some celebrities to speak for Mr. Lambert. If you speak for him, it will definitely cause a wave of public opinion to swing in his favor, which will also increase your exposure. I'm giving you an opportunity; don't you know how to appreciate it?"
Queenie's shamelessness once again refreshed Astrid's worldview.
Knowing that Elio exposed Lambert because he offended her, how could Queenie actually have such a naive idea?
Was she crazy?
Queenie waited for a while without hearing Astrid speak, thinking that Astrid was moved, and continued. "Helping Mr. Lambert is nothing but good for you; he will give you a lot of resources. Do you know how Fannie Santos became famous?"
