With this thought in mind, Elio turned to Astrid and Roman at the door and said, “Just wait for me a
moment, I’ll have Carson bring the clothes up right away, and then we’ll go together”
When Roman heard that they would go together, his eyes instantly lit up

mood.
Astrid naturally noticed Roman’s thoughts and smiled, saying, “Then Roman and I will go have
breakfast. What would you like to eat?”
As Elio looked at Astrid, who was holding Roman, he suddenly had an illusion as if they really were a
family.
Seeing him staring at him blankly, Astrid called again in a low voice: “Mr. Lampard?”
Astrid’s voice snapped Elio back to reality, and his heart raced. He looked down and whispered, “I’ve
already eaten.”
“Then let’s go first,” Astrid carried Roman out the door. Roman reached out and caressed Astrid’s face,
his little legs dangling happily in the air.
Half an hour later, Astrid and Roman were almost finished eating, but there was no sign of Elio coming
out. They were about to call and ask when they caught sight of a tall figure approaching the door.
Astrid immediately recognized the person as Elio at a glance. She lowered her head and said to
Roman, “What is your dad doing? Sunglasses, mask, baseball cap… Is he a big star?”
Roman frowned in dissatisfaction. “How silly.”
“Yes, very silly.” Astrid and Roman smiled at each other, and this scene happened to be photographed
by Elio, who was standing at the door.
He looked at the photo on his phone and smiled tenderly.
Today was Wednesday, and the amusement park wasn’t crowded.
Although Astrid had become a trending topic once for her good looks, she didn’t have any film or TV
works and was relatively unknown. Basically, no one recognized her. She held Roman’s hand and each
of them walked and danced with a pink cotton candy.
Elio followed behind them but didn’t interact with them, like an invisible person…
Astrid and Roman had surprisingly similar interests and loved those high–altitude and thrilling projects.
But no matter what project Astrid and Roman played, Elio didn’t join in. He just stood there, frowning,
motionless.
After getting off the Ferris wheel, Astrid and Roman went to buy tickets for another thrilling project and
looked back to see Elio still standing there motionless. Astrid couldn’t help but wonder if it was because
she didn’t invite Elio that he felt embarrassed to come and play with them.
Possibly, he was a proud person after all.
“Miss, one more ticket!” Holding three tickets, Astrid ran up to Elio and extended an invitation, “Mr.
Lampard, shall we play together?”
Elio’s body suddenly tensed. “No! I won’t go! I won’t play!”
Astrid was taken aback. “Are you scared? Roman isn’t scared!”
Upon hearing this, Roman immediately straightened his chest and said, “I’m not scared at all!”
“Are you kidding me? How could I afraid of something like this?” Elio said as he took a step back, only
to have his hand caught by Roman,
“Since you’re not scared, let’s go. Don’t keep others waiting too long.” Astrid said, and Elio reluctantly
followed them onto the pirate ship with heavy steps.
After fastening their seatbelts, Roman and Astrid whispered to each other in the corner, occasionally
bursting into laughter.
But Elio still sat there stiffly.
A few seconds later, the machine started to move.
Initially, there was less shaking, and Astrid began to complain, “Wow, this is so boring, isn’t it? Is it only
this high?”
Roman nodded in agreement, showing no enthusiasm at all.
Gradually, the swing angle of the machine became larger and larger.
People around them started screaming, and Astrid and Roman shouted excitedly, “So thrilling! Higher!
Higher!”
Roman: “Higher! Higher!”
Just then, the machine reached its highest point!
There was a sudden scream in the ears of Roman and Astrid: “AH!!!!”
Startled by the deafening sound, they turned their heads to look aside. Elio felt their gaze and quickly
closed his mouth!
Astrid couldn’t help but burst into laughter. It turned out that Elio, who seemed fearless, was actually
afraid of heights?
Seeing Elio, who had always been extremely cold, screaming with his eyes closed, Astrid couldn’t help
it anymore, and laughed loudly: “Hahahahaha…”
