Astrid Arvidsson
Sweating profusely, Astrid continued to work with the punching bag, even though her arms already seemed to be made of stone. Even during a common workout she preferred not to hold back, completely devoting herself to the development of her body. That's why she's been dancing around that punching bag for more than fifteen minutes, honing her boxing skills.
There wasn't a soul around her, and the reason for that was simple enough. Astrid was in LAW additional gym, which, unlike the main gym, was not on the second floor, but not on the third floor of the headquarters. Usually, the blonde preferred to train at her best friend Charlotte's martial arts school, but for some reason, both her best friend and her school were unavailable right now. Besides, Astrid had another reason to be here, away from prying eyes.
With Victoria's help as a contact, Astrid made an appointment with a woman here.
Not so long ago, this woman won an important match, which earned the attention of the descendant of the great Vikings. That day, Astrid experienced very contradictory emotions because she was very sorry that Lily did not have the strength to overcome this woman, despite all the efforts that the Englishwoman had made to do that. She knew well what it meant to lose a match that you had no right to lose. Seeing that endless emptiness in Lily's eyes after the end of the match, Astrid felt her heart break apart. However, personal connections shouldn't get in her way, as a champion she couldn't let something like that happen.
Astrid hadn't made any promises to this woman. The only promise this woman received was from Victoria. The manager promised that if this woman defeated Lily, she would talk to Astrid about a title match. Funny or not, but there was no need for this promise, because Astrid was well aware of this woman. And the fact that this woman decided to beat someone from Victoria's team first before openly challenging Astrid deserved respect from the Norwegian woman.
She made her decision.
However, before revealing this decision, she intended to see this woman in person and find out something. So Astrid took a quick glance at the wall clock. They're supposed to meet in a minute. It is unlikely that Alizeh Midori will risk being late for a one-on-one meeting with the current openweight champion.
