Chapter 4

The terrifying look on Astrid’s face had Sundra and Lucinda backing up They never thought the once

meek Astrid could become so confident.

Same old face She still wore cheap clothes, but her characteristic had changed greatly.-

Back in the day, Astrid wouldn’t even dare to talk back to them..

‘No one gets to Insult my child.” Astrid glared at them coldly, giving off a dangerous vibe.

No one had the right to Insult her child, even if he was not with her anymore!

Lucinda, who grew up with Astrid, was seeing this side of Astrid for the first time. She was frightened,

held Sandra’s hand and muttered, “We’re just looking out for you. You’re not in good health, how can

you live in a place like this? Come home. Dad can get you a job at the company.”

“Your company is too big, it’s not my cup of tea Astrid sneered. She had seen their true colors and

wouldn’t be fooled again. She remembered how they had treated her in the past.

“You do know yourself well. Sandra nodded, “You didn’t go to college, It would indeed be hard for you

to get into our company. But we’re family, I can ask your dad to get you a receptionist Job. You could

earn a good three hundred a month.”

In Sandra’s mind, Astrid should be grateful for her finding a job. Given the cheap clothes Astrid was

wearing and the place she was living In, It was clear that Astrid had been having a tough time since

leaving Sunhaven.

“Three hundred?” Astrid was taken aback. She turned down an offer from the National Security Bureau

of Erendor with a high position and a million–dollar salary, and Sandra thought she could sway her with

a measly three hundred?

“Get lost, right now! Astrid said, pushing the two out the door,

Just as she was about to shut the door, it was forcefully held back. She turned to see it was Sandra’s

bodyguard.

“Astrid, you’re actually rejecting my goodwill!” Sandra said arrogantly.

The corridor’s atmosphere became extremely tense. Astrid flexed her wrist and turned to the child

behind her, “Sweetle, no matter what you hear, don’t come out, okay?”

Roman obediently nodded, and the door was shut.

The men charged at Astrid, Intending to subdue her. But with a roundhouse kick, Astrid sent them

flying!

Sandra and Lucinda were left staring in shock. They watched, dumbfounded, as Astrid took down one

man after another, too stunned to speak. How did the frail Astrid suddenly become so strong?

Looking at the men howling In pain in the corridor, Lucinda and Sandra looked as if they’d seen a ghost

and scattered out of the hallway.

Once they were out of the shabby apartment building, Lucinda gave a sigh of relief, Mom, was that

really Astrid? She didn’t get switched out or something, did she?”

Sandra shook her head, “How could that be? I guess she must’ve secretly learned a few tricks over the

years.”

Lucinda grumbled, “Mom, this is all your fault! If you hadn’t racked up so much debt with the Fortner

family, do you think we would be in this desperate situation? You’ve already promised Farrah Fortner to

marry off

a daughter to settle the debt. If Astrid doesn’t go, then I’ll have to marry that idiot I can’t marry that guy,

I’m going to be the wife of the CEO of Morgenster Corporation!”
