Chapter 123
Elio took Astrid out for a drive, and she was snoozing as soon as they hit the road.
When she woke up, the car was parked. Just as she was about to sit up, Elio handed her a blindfold.
“Put this on for me.”
“Why all the mystery?” Although she was a bit grumpy, Astrid still put on the blindfold.
Elio got out of the car, opened the door for her, and gently grabbed her wrist. “Don’t worry, I won’t do
anything over the line.”
“Even if you had the guts, you wouldn’t dare.” Astrid scoffed, letting Elio lead her on.
A gentle breeze brushed against her face, and the air was filled with a faint floral scent.
After a while, something felt off. Just as she was about to remove the blindfold, Elio’s voice came from
beside her. “Just wait a bit longer.”
A few minutes later, he said, “You can take it off now.”
Astrid lifted her hand and removed the blindfold. All she could see was a vast sea of blue roses. She
was standing in a hot air balloon…
Elio: “This is for you, do you like it?”
Astrid nodded, she liked blue roses, but she liked this natural blue rose sea even more…
Such a sea of flowers had only appeared in her dreams before, and now Elio had made it a reality.
“Elio, did you buy this flower field?” she asked.
Elio looked at Astrid with a smile in his eyes and shook his head. “After I found out you like blue roses, I
started growing natural blue roses and bought this farm to turn it into a flower sea.”
In fact, Elio started preparing everything after he found out Hal Cornett had sent Astrid rose petals. He
couldn’t lose to that guy.
Sending rose petals? That’s nothing!
He wanted to give her a sea, a sea of flowers that belonged only to her. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Astrid was deeply attracted by this sea of flowers, but she had one question in her mind. “When did you
find out where I live?”
Elio gave a faint smile. “Don’t underestimate your boyfriend.”
“Hmm, you think giving me a sea of flowers would make you my boyfriend?” Astrid lifted her chin
slightly. “I’m not that easy to win over.”
Elio chuckled and moved closer to her. “Looks like I need to work harder, don’t you think, darling?”
His breath tickled Astrid’s ear as he spoke. Astrid was ticklish.
She immediately felt uncomfortable.
“Don’t call me darling, back off!” Astrid pushed Elio away with a slap and turned her head away.
Elio looked at Astrid’s blushing earlobes, his eyes filled with tenderness.
Astrid’s father and Roman had been waiting on the porch swing for a long time. It was almost dark
when Elio and Astrid came back.
Roman jumped down as soon as he saw the car, waving his hand and shouting, “Astrid~”
Watching his daughter get out of the car with Elio, Astrid’s father squinted at Elio, his face full of
discontent. Another young man trying to take his daughter from him!
But something was off!
His Star used to be cold and merciless towards her suitors, why was she out playing with this man for
so long now?
Not only that, but the atmosphere between the two seemed different from when they left.
Something was fishy…
As soon as Astrid got out of the car, Roman hugged her thigh.
Looking at the much tanned Roman, Astrid couldn’t help but laugh. “Roman, did you catch any fish
today?”
Roman shook his head. “No.”
Astrid: “Are you going fishing again tomorrow?”
Roman shook his head firmly: “No!”
It was too boring.
Fishing was not what he had imagined.
It was not interesting at all.
After saying that, Roman whispered into Astrid’s ear: “Grandpa is so dumb, he didn’t catch a single
fish!”
Astrid couldn’t help but laugh. Even the kid thought Magee was silly.
Elio glanced at Magee and slowly came forward. “I know a type of bait that’s great for fishing. I’ll have
someone bring it over tomorrow. How about I go fishing with you tomorrow?”
Magee huffed and puffed: “No. Are you after my fish or my daughter?”
