Love in the Limelight Chapter 50

Chapter 50 

Roman was first dumbfounded, then burst out laughing. “Hahaha…” 

In Roman’s memory, Elio was a very powerful man, as if there was nothing he couldn’t handle. He was also very aloof, as if he wasn’t interested in anything. Now, the once aloof and powerful man was screaming because he was afraid of heights! 

Compared to the aloof father in his memory, he preferred the father now, because he was more real. 

Astrid and Roman were laughing their heads off, while Elio kept his eyes closed, gripping the seat belt, and didn’t open his eyes the whole time. 

For Elio, every second on the machine was so long! 

After an unknown period of time, the machine finally stopped. Elio unbuckled his seat belt and jumped off, not feeling safe until his feet were firmly on the ground. 

His hat had been blown off at some point and his hair was all messy. The always neat Elio looked at his disheveled reflection in the mirror, immediately stood up straight and tidied his hair. 

“Mr. Lampard, would you like to ride the roller coaster with us?” Astrid asked. Normally, he would find Astrid’s voice pleasant, but right now it sounded like a devil’s voice. Elio refused without hesitation, “No, you guys go ahead.” 

Astrid looked at him and suddenly laughed. Recalling Elio’s pathetic state on the pirate ship, Astrid found it hilarious, “Well, we’ll be off then. You should rest here for a bit.” “Alright.” Elio nodded. He had been wearing a mask the whole time. His hideous expression should be hidden from Astrid, right? 

Thinking about his poor performance on the machine just now, Elio felt very embarrassed. 

He had been terrified of heights since he was little, and he thought he could’ve kept it under control this time. 

But his screams were completely out of control, how embarrassing. 

And that brat Roman, how dare he laugh at him?! 

The more Elio thought about it, the more ashamed he felt. He turned his head to look at the roller coaster ticket booth, and saw Astrid and Roman whispering to each other. He had no idea what they were saying. Roman suddenly kissed Astrid’s cheek.” 

He had never seen Roman so happy… 

The scene of the two embracing each other made the unhappiness in Elio’s heart disappear instantly. Astrid and Roman played all the exciting items in the amusement park, some of which were even played multiple times. By the time they left the park, it was already three in the afternoon. 

Roman was so tired from playing that he fell asleep a few minutes after eating and getting in the car. 

Even in his sleep, he was still clutching Astrid’s clothes, as if afraid Astrid would disappear when he woke up. 

Seeing him like this, Astrid felt a little sad. She remembered the first time she saw Roman, and asked softly, “Mr. Lampard, where is Roman’s mother?” 

“I really don’t know,” Elio finished speaking, noticing Astrid watching him, and added, I’ve tried everything to find her, but I failed. I think she might be hiding from me on purpose, not wanting to be seen. But I have to tell you, there was no love relationship between her and me, Roman was an accident. Don’t overthink it.” 

“I didn’t think much about it.” Astrid lowered her eyes slightly. She wasn’t interested in that woman, she just felt sorry for Roman, because he lost his mother’s love since he was young, “I have to go filming tomorrow, I might not see Roman for a while.” 

Elio turned his head to look at her, whispering, “You can stay over at my place tonight, I’ll take you to the set tomorrow.”
