Chapter 142

Astrid couldn’t help but chuckle at the girl’s despairing expression before her, reaching out to put á comforting hand on her shoulder. “What’s your name?” she asked.

“My name is Teresa. Take care. I’m leaving now,” Teresa answered. Her cheeks turned as red as an apple when Astrid touched her. She looked so adorable.

Barely able to look Astrid in the eye, Teresa brushed off Astrid’s hand and left the restaurant in a hurry.

Teresa felt like she was dreaming after her idol put an arm around her. She practically floated out of the restaurant.

Astrid left the restaurant and started walking towards her hotel along the river. Before she even reached her hotel, Rickon sent her a message on WhatsApp: “Star, I won’t be able to have lunch with you tomorrow. I’ve got some business.”

Astrid was curious about his message. “Got a date?” she asked.

“No, The Racer challenged me to a race tomorrow,” Rickon replied.

“The Racer? Which one?” Astrid asked.

“Who else could it be? It’s Fate, holder of the top speed record in Formula One,” Rickon explained.
