Love in the Limelight Novel

Chapter 241
Eho was caught off guard and stumbled backward after being kicked, struggling to maintain his balance. Just as someone
walked out of the elevator, he pretended to casually cover his mouth and cough a few times, trying to mask his embarrassment.
Only after that person entered the room did Elio glance at Astrid’s closed door
She was perfectly fine when they got off the car. Why did she suddenly get angry? They had gone through so much to find each
other; shouldn’t they cherish their relationship?
Why did she kick him out so abruptly?
Thinking it over, Elio couldn’t understand why Astrid was upset. He tried entering the door code, but it kept showing “wrong
password” and wouldn’t open. Clearly, Astrid had changed the code as soon as she went inside.
Sighing, Elio took out his phone to call Astrid, but the call was continuously busy. When he opened WhatsApp to send a
message, he realized that he had been blocked.
After a few seconds of contemplation, Elio dialed Roman’s number, and he answered promptly, “Elio, what’s up?”
Elio said, “Roman, open the door.”
Tm too short, I can’t reach the door,” Roman replied casually.
Gritting his teeth, Elio said, “I remember you have a small stool.”
Oh Roman nonchalantly responded, then said, “Mom said she doesn’t want to see you now. She wants you to leave immediately
Elio fell silent.
Elio said, Then ask your mom what mistake I made. I want to understand where I went wrong.”
Hearing these words, Roman turned his innocent gaze towards Astrid, holding the phone to her mouth, “Mom, Elio says he
wants to understand where he went wrong”
Astrid raised her eyelids indifferently and replied, “I hate him for no reason.”
Before Elio could react, the call was hung up.

When he tried calling again, it wouldn’t go through.
Now Elio was even more bewildered.
Even before knowing that Roman was their child, he could clearly sense the change in Astrid’s attitude towards him. They were
only a formal confession away from being together.
In theory, knowing that Roman was their child should have strengthened their relationship, right?
So why did he suddenly get kicked out in such an embarrassing manner?
Realizing that it was pointless to continue like this, Elio left the building.
He opened the car door and sat inside, contemplating for a while. Then he dialed Gracie’s number.
Gracie was singing karaoke with friends when she saw Elio’s call. She walked out to answer, asking, “Chief, what’s up?”
Elio hesitated for a moment before saying, “I don’t know how I offended Astrid.”
“You don’t know how?” Gracie was confused. “Wasn’t she with you tonight, celebrating your mother’s birthday? Did some woman
at the party show interest in you, making her angry?”
“No” Elio remained silent for a few seconds, then said, “Tonight, after she found out that Roman is our son, she suddenly got
angry without any warning.”
“Oh my god Gracie exclaimed. “So, you’re that despicable man?”
Recalling Astrid’s past experiences, Gracie no longer cared who Elio was and started berating him, “Elio, you had a night with
her and then left. Do you know how difficult it was for Astrid?”
