Good chapter. I'm glad Rock at least considered cheating (and came close to doing it), as it helps balance out Astro's thoughtless philandering. I don't quite get what's going on with Astro's career though. He doesn't seem to have the skills, temperament or education to land an executive position, yet there he suddenly is. And just as quickly, the company goes bankrupt. Oh well...
That part of the story is too rushed to make sense, but doesn't really matter. Rock is the MC and star.
I loved this chapter sm too. Rock's attempt at infidelity was intrigued me aswell. Despite her lack of remorse she still can't go thru with giving herself away to someone she doesn't love. Which adds an additional lare of depth to her. I could relate to her in this chapter because, cuz I also can't do anything (not even hold hands😓) without an emotional connection.
But what really stood out to me was Despite being in opposite positions, they both longed for the same thing. Each other. As happy as Rock was to be well provided for she hated being left alone and wanted to be with Astro again. And as much as Astro loved providing for Rock. He missed her immensely. Also he's just not much of a worker tbh.
Also this was the sweetest we've seen Rock in my opinion. Seeing him so eager to work hard to that Rock can her deepest desires almost made forget how much of cheater he was for a sec.
And for the whole work plotline I think the reason why Astro was able to get a job so easily was because of his sister. Since she's so high up in the modeling industry, it wasn't hard for her to pull some strings and get her brother a job. I guess the whole thing came crumbling down because the lady Astro was working with pulled some strings to swindle the company out of money putting them in debt. This could be a whole a scheme by the Astro's sister to put them in a bad financial situation, so Rock will have no choice but to come model for her. But I dunno. I haven't finished reading yet I could be wrong. Even if am I right doubt that plan would even work😅
