Chapter 21

The gardens of the Sunset Holiday Hotel were done up like a dreamy, romantic wonderland. You’d walk

along the quiet lakeside path and see twinkling lights scattered about like shooting stars. From afar, the

garden locked as if a galaxy of stars had spilled onto it.

The whole visual effect created a dreamlike atmosphere, making you feel like you’ve stepped into a

fantasy world.

Lucinda was all dolled up, and her haughty demeanor resembled a peacock spreading its feathers. No

matter who greeted her, shed respond with icy indifference.

Growing up, Lucinda was forever living in Astrid’s shadow

Astrid was lauded as a genius by the entire school. She was rarely in school, often leaving shortly after

each semester began, only returning for the final exams. And yet, she always managed to top the class

in those exams

Not only was she academically brilliant, but she was also stunningly beautiful and popular. Everyone

would praise Astrid like she fortune

Wasn’t that just a polite way of saying she wasn’t pretty?

But so what if Astrid was pretty? She was still marrying a complete idiot.

What good was a lavish and romantic engagement party then?

An idiot is an idiot, that’s a fact that isn’t going to change.

was a goddess, but when they saw Lucinda, they’d say she looked like she had good

Sandra, upon seeing Lucinda looking sullen by the fountain, walked over and lightly tapped her

shoulder, saying somewhat irritably, “Oh Lucinda, a man was trying to chat you up and you were so

cold to him!” Lucinda rolled her eyes, “Mom, you know I like Mr Lampard. Why should I be all smiles

with any other guy!”

“Sweetie, never put all your eggs in one basket. Always have a backup plan, Sandra, a shrewd woman,

said. If it weren’t for her meddling, the Fortner family would never have agreed to an alliance with the

Irvine family

“Mr Lampard is here!” Suddenly, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted. Everyone’s gaze

Immediately turned towards the entrance.

Seeing the man who had appeared in her dreams countless times, Lucinda felt her heart nearly leap

out of her chest.

A lot of people had only seen Elio in the news, this was their first time seeing him in the flesh.

As the handsome figure approached, some of the ladies couldn’t help but exclaim, ‘Oh my God, Mr.

Lampard is so handsome! He’s even more charming in person than in photos!” “He’s like the perfect

man, right out of a legend. His physique, his features… just flawless!”

“Look at me, did I even put on makeup? I want to have a drink with Mr Lampard”

The girls‘ chattering stopped abruptly as Ello walked past them.

The cold aura that emanated from him was too strong, one look from him was enough to send chills

down their spines.

Without Astrid in sight, Elio’s gaze turned even colder and more determined. His sharp, reminiscent of

a grim reaper, gaze sent shivers down everyone’s spine.

Elio took out his phone, just in time to receive a message from Carson: Location confirmed, hotel top

floor, room 2109.

Was she sent directly to Colton’s room?!

Achill rose from the depths of his heart, Ello’s face was pale and ghastly, looking absolutely terrifying.

“Hello, Mr Lampard.” Seeing Elio approaching her, Lucinda quickly put on a smile in an attempt to greet

him, but Ello didn’t even glance at her, swiftly walking past without even a sidelong glance. Not wasting

any time, Elio hurriedly rushed into the hotel elevator.

This was the first time he found the elevator’s speed to be horrifyingly slow.

His heartbeat unconsciously quickened, he had never been this nervous throughout his years of

running the business.

He didn’t even dare to imagine what he’d see when he opened that room’s door….
