Chapter 680Larissa had trended more than once when she was in conflict with the Hardy family. She trended again when she got knocked down byLana’s car.Both times they had caused quite the commotion then. So, it was not strange lo end up on the trending list. But she had not done anything over these two […]
Chapter 679 “Bruh, this girl’s so lake! What kind of illness did she get that she needed her boyfriend to carry her all the way? Does she think she’s a princess or something?” Larissa buried her lace deeper into Kevan’s neck. Kevan was super tensed up when he felt her het breath against his neck. His whole body was so stiff that he gradually slowed down in order to cover up how unnatural he was at the moment When they finally entered the doctor’s office, Larissa and Kevan’s awkward state was finally lessened. The doctor was a slightly elderly head doctor. He was probably used to youngsters bring all clingy with each other, so he was rather chill about it all and he did not show any scorn. “Go take a blood test.” The doctor wrote a prescrioll on at once when he heard what Kevan said about the symptoms. “Once you get the results, come and find me again.” The blood test venue was on the same floor. Kevan still did not put Larissa down, Larissa knew that Kevan was a stubborn idict, so she gave up and stopped resisting. But a kind nurse was afraid that he would be tired, so she came over to ask, “Do you need a wheelchair? Kevan glared at her coldly, and the nurse went away awkwardly. Larissa could not stand it. “Be nicer. They only mean well.” “Uh–huh,” Kevan replied vaguely with no hint of regret at all Larissa stopped herself from rolling her eyes. The results from the blood test were that Larissa got a viral infection. The doctor prescribed a new medicine for Larissa and told her to go get an infusion in the room. After the infusion, Larissa tried to chase Kevan off. “Go back and rest. I’ll call my cousin and get him to come take care of me.” Kevan did not move, though. Larissa nudged him again. “Hurry up and go! She had not yet pulled her hand back when Kevan caught it in his own hand. “I’m not going anywhere.” He played with her hand with his head down. He squeezed every single finger like he had gained a new toy. “If you try to chase me away. I will pester you forever so you will never get your wish.” He threatened her harshly. Larissa was stunned. “… Why are you so unreasonable?” She had never seen such a shameless asshole like him before. “I promise you that I can do exactly what I said.” Kevan smiled like he had already won. “Try me, go on.” Larissa shut up at once. She had not napped in the whole aftemoon. Now that she was sitting on this chair, It was super boring. Larissa yowned, her tiredness increasing greatly. Kevan was responding to emails using his phone. Suddenly, his shoulder got heavier. He looked down to see that Larissa had fallen. asleep against him. The thermostat in the IV room was turned on, so Kevan was is not worried that she might get cold. He straightened up so that she could be more comfortable in her sleep. The nurse came over to ask, “Would you like to move next door? There are beds there, she can lie down.” 1/2 Larissa had no idea what happened after she fell asleep. Alter she woke up, she was already back in her big hotel bed. The sun was already up and out too. The person watching over her had somehow changed to Lewis. She was relieved but also somewhat disappointed. “You’re awake?” Lewis was staring at his phone with a frown. He looked over when he heard the noise of her waking up. Larissa hummed lightly in response. Then, she asked curiously, “What are you looking at? You’re so serious.” Hearing this, the expression on Lewis‘ lace became super complicated. “You’re trending.” he said after a long moment.
Chapter 678*1-.-“Larissa “1” Larissa bit her lip. She looked up at Kevan in a pitiful manner, her voice as whiny as a newborn kitten. “I don’t feel good.”The flush on her face never disappeared. The heat from her body spread to Kevan’s skin from Larissa’s palm.Kevan’s feigned calmness shattered at once.He retreated to her side
Chapter 677Larissa had almost never seen Kevan’s lace turn red unless they were in bed.At that time, it was because of his excitement. He gripped her waist pretty hard during the act while spewing the most embarrassing things ever at times.Larissa shamefully realized that she was getting exciled.Kevan did not nolice what she was thinking.
Chapter 676 Kevan had been distracted for the whole day. Even during his meeting, he would pick up his phone and glance at IL Larissa never looked for him. He could not tell what he was feeling. He wished Larissa would take the initiative to talk to him, Alas, he was also afraid that she would say things that he did not want to hear, He had seen how cold she was to him during these two days–so much so that it could be counted as scom. His gamble this time still achieved results that were the exact opposite of what he wanted. But he did not regret it. Aster’s parentage would have to be brought up at some point. It was better to solve it early than drag it all out. He saw the news from his subordinate. Larissa and Lewis had gone to the cemetery. Larissa and Lewis had gone back to the hotel Lewis had canceled tonight’s flight tickets Kevan was a little happy. He could not help but wonder if Larissa’s choice to stay was because of him. Larissa’s WhatsApp message was rather sudden. He has been reading the documents that had piled up in his office. When his phone vibrated, he eagerly opened WhatsApp. Alas, his joy turned into anxiety when he saw what Larissa had willen. What did she want to talk about? Aster? Or about their relationship? With the way she was acting these days, it was reasonable for Kevan to believe that Larissa wanted nothing to do with him. Kevan felt reluctant to see her for the last time ever in his life. But the problems between them had to be fixed. In the end, he could not run away forever. After dragging things out for a very long time, he only replied. “Til head over around 6 pm.” Before he left the company, he drank half a small bottle of red wine to give himself some courage. It did not work. His heart was still racing when he stood before Larissa’s room door. He spent quite some time calming himself before he called Larissa and said, “Open the door, I’m outside your room.” Larissa opened the door and smelled the wine on Kevan. Frowning, she asked, “You’ve been drinking?” Kevan’s expression remained unchanged. The only thing that betrayed how nervous he felt was the way he clenched his fist in his pocket. “I had met with a client,” he said. If he went to meet with a client, there would definitely be someone following him. Larissa’s worry that he might have driven drunk vanished at once, and her frown disappeared. She stepped aside to let him in. “Come in.” She got him to sit down on the sola in the living room. Then, she went to search for drinks in the refrigerator. “Have some water.” Kewan did not refuse her goodwill. The truth was, his mouth did feel a little dry. Larissa passed the water over and sat near him. There was a good deal of space between them. “I heard that you made the hospital employee who made things difficult for me lose his job.” She spoke directly. Kevan had not yet had the chance to swallow the water he had just drunk. So, her words made him choke. He kept coughing with a hand stain on his thigh. Larissa immediately got some tissues to help dry his pants. When she reached out, she realized just how awkward the location was. She sheepishly pulled her hand back and pretended nothing had happened. Her already red face from the fever turned redder from the embarrassment. Kevan put the bottle of water aside. He had stopped coughing, but his red lace was no different from Larissa’s.
Chapter 675 Larissa was used to seeing young girls like Milly. If this were before, she would have put an end to what Milly was thinking. But Larissa really liked Milly, so she did not expose Milly’s feelings. She even did her best to give Milly the answers she wanted, “He’s like a brother to me. If he had a girlfriend, she may not get jealous over this sort of thing.” Milly relaxed. “Your cousin doesn’t have a girlfriend?!” She widened her eyes. “He’s so handsome! How can he not have a girlfriend?! You can’t be lying to me, right?” Larissa found it odd as well. With how Lewis looked, it was weird for him not to have a girlfriend. She could only think of one explanation. “Maybe it’s because he’s so busy with work. That’s why he doesn’t have time to get a girlfriend.” “What does your cousin do? Why would he be so busy that he can’t even get a girlfriend?” Milly straightened up at once. Her face was super serious like she was discussing a very philosophical problem with Larissa. “He helps my dad with the company.” Larissa did not go into detalls for lear of scaring Milly. “Ah—“Milly nodded. She did not look quite as eager as she did before. “Then, yeah, he’s quite busy.” Well Milly had been scared off. Larissa was annoyed with herself when she suddenly heard Milly say, “Speaking of, though, your cousin can’t be as busy as Mr. Rogers, right? Because even Mr. Rogers could take time out to fall in love with someone else Milly was referring to Kevan. As the guy who kept his top spot in Forbes‘ lists for richest men in Caldor, he was probably the busiest man in the country to Milly. “You don’t know how long Mr. Rogers waited in the living room yesterday. When I left, he was still there.” Milly’s voice was filled with admiration. If Milly had not said it Larissa would not have known a thing about it. Now that Larissa knew about it her feelings became more and more complicated. “What happened to that former colleague of yours you spoke about yesterday?” Larissa forcibly changed the subject. Milly did not notice Larissa’s plan. She was distracted at once. “He’s still pleading for mercy with his superior, but it’s useless. Once the director makes a decision, how could his superior go against the director? “If I were him, I’d find another job at a different hospital. For someone like him who is willing to interact with dead people, it’s easy for him to find jobs. But he had to cling to his current one–” Milly was too innocent. Based on what Larissa knew about Kevan, once he made someone lose their job, they would never be able to find another job ever again. *Aren’t you guys trying to make a donation? Is there an account number? I’d like to make an effort too.” This matter started because of her, after all. Larissa felt guilty, and she wanted to make it up to the young man. Milly waved her hands. “This is just a donation run that’s between us colleagues. We won’t take money from others. But if you really want to help him, can you give him back his job? Milly already heard her colleagues say that the young man lost his job because he offended Yvette’s daughter. He was indeed very dedicated to his job. He hated family members who left their dead at the hospital morgue. So, when he laced people 1/2 The young man had not figured things out that day. He only knew that Yvelle had been in the morgue for a very long time. So, he automatically assumed Larissa was being disrespectful and caused trouble for her on purpose. After Larissa listened to Milly’s explanation, she was silent for a moment. Then, she spoke. “Til try to give him back his job.” It was not like she could guarantee that Kevan would listen to her. Alter Milly left, Larissa sent a WhatsApp text to Kevan. “Are you free today? I want to talk to you about something.” Kevan was likely busy, as he only responded a while later. “I head over around 6pm.” Larissa replied. “Okay.” It was hard to wait. She had a lot on her mind, and so she could not sleep. Larissa watched a few TV programs before the clock struck si Kevan gave her a phone call “Open the door. Im outside your room.”
Chapter 674 It was likely that she had caught a cold in the cemetery because when Larissa got back to the hotel, her lever returned. Lewis almost suspected that she did this on purpose to stay longer in Caldor. But Larissa looked so unwell that he knew she was telling the truth. He explained everything to Gary before canceling the’r llight tickets. Gary was not happy with them postponing their retum. Still, he said, “Lar’s health is important. Take good care of her there. Don’t let her get sick anymore.” The doctor prescribed two shots for Larissa yesterday. Lewis summoned the nurse to administer the last one. The nurse that came over today was still Milly. Milly had never seen Lewis before. The moment she entered Larissa’s room and saw an unfamiliar man there, the first thing she thought of was that she had entered the wrong room. She kept apologizing as she quickly exited the room while leaving Lewis and Larissa very confused. “Ms. Nurse, please wall” When Lewis chased after her to stop her, Milly was standing at the door and staring at the number on it. She kept attempting to confirm that she get the right room. It made her look very adorable. Lewis could not help but laugh. When Milly heard the laughter, she looked up. That strange man’s smile was so warm and friendly. He also had a very nice voice when he called her “Ms. Nurse.” Milly’s face turned red. It turned redder when she found out that she made a big mistake. When she lollowed Lewis into the room, her head was bowed so low that her chin locked like it was glued to her chest. Larissa forced herself up to wave at Milly. “Hi Milly.” Her sickly look made Milly frown. “Is your lever still there? Have you taken your med cation? Didn’t the medicine work?” Larissa did not dare to respond to her questions, but Lewis exposed her. “She went outside in the morning and stood in the wind for hall the day.” Larissa glared at him with displeasure. Alas, she got a stare of disapproval from Milly at the next second. “You’re already ill Why did you still go out? Are you even aware that you’re unwell?” Milly began to rag her. Lew’s stood coldly to one side with his arms crossed, ignoring Larissa’s silent pleas for help. After Milly finished nagging her, Larissa spoke. “With th the way you two are right now, you look like a couple.” They tried to parent her the same way. *Larissa, don’t talk nonsensel” Milly was completely embarrassed. Her ears were red now too. Her solt voice sounded a tile petly. Lewis also said, ‘Don’t make fun of her.” Larissa lell wronged. She had made a joke. She did not think too much into it. How was she supposed to know that they would react this 1/2 But honestly… It only made them look more like a couple. Of course, she did not dare say this out loud. Once Larissa was hooked up to an IV again, Lewis left after a while later. Once Gary knew that they would be postponing their return, he assigned another new task to Lewis. Milly stayed in the room with Larissa. She also tried to find out information about Lewis. “Was the handsome guy earlier your friend?” “He’s my cousin,” Larissa replied. “Your relationship seems pretty close? Won’t his girlfriend get jealous?” Milly looked a little nervous
Chapter 673Yvette was buried in a regular cemetery along with the “normal” people that she once looked down on. She would sleep forever among the pine trees on the hill.Because Larissa didn’t care. Lewis had not picked the plot of land where Yvette would be buried. He got someone to recommend a spot. It happened
Chapter 672 There should be family members going to pay respects to Yvette the second day after she had been buried. But the only “family” Yvette had now was Larissa. But this funeral was never arranged according to what was “normal” Lewis wanted Larissa to not attend the funeral because she had not fully recovered. The cemetery was at a secluded place on the outskirts. It was colder than the clly, which was packed with buildings. Il she went out and caught a cold agair, it would only make her lever worse. Larissa’s fever had not fully gone down yet. Il she “Just let me go.” Larissa’s nose was so clogged that her voice had a nasally sound to it. “We’ll be leaving tonight, and there won’t be any chances to do this in the future.” Lewis studied her for a while. “You’re sure?” least, she gave birth to me.” Larissa nodded without hesitation. “At the very least, she After Yvette died, Larissa let go of many things. It was not that she was trying to be a saint or anything. She just thought that it was not worth holding grudges with a dead person, especially when Yvette had died so pitifully. She came back for Yvelte’s funeral arrangements as a way to show her gratitude for Yvette giving birth to her and to give herself some reassurance. This way, they would really owe each other nothing after this. “I’m not asking about that.” Lewis frowned slightly. “You’re sure that we’ll be leaving tonight?” They booked Lckets back to Aldovia along with the tickets for coming to Caldor, Larissa’s leg was not yet fully recovered and still needed treatment. So, they planned to use the shortest time possible to deal with everything here in Caldor before flying back to finish the rest of the treatment. But they did not know how the news of their return to Caldor had been leaked to Kevan. Still it was not weird for Kevan to know. Bartham was his territory, aher all Winston Hotel may have his sples. “Although I don’t know what happened between you and Mr. Rogers. I think you should solve this as an adult and not run away all the time. Her cousin was very perceptive. Larissa knew this after having spent so much time with him. So, she stopped lying and instead laid out her troubles to him. www “I haven’t Egured out how to solve this problem.” The last time Kevan left Aldovia, he threw a glart ‘bomb” at her. It affected her so badly that she still had not recovered from that yet. Lewis could help Larissa with anything except feelings. He was bad with feelings, so he naturally could not meddle in any way. “Just think about whether you really want to leave tonight.” When Lewis finished his social engagement last night and rushed back to the ho hotel it was already past 2 am. When he entered Larissa’s bedroom, he was surprised to see Kevan there. Kevan was bending over to place a wet towel on Larissa’s forehead. When he saw that Lewis had returned, Kevan Immediately said his goodbyes. Stil, before he actually left, he gave Lewis a whole bunch of Instructions on how to take care of Larissa. The level of detail impressed Lewis. He could see devan’s feelings for Larissa. Such a pure and deep love moved him. Lewis hoped that Larissa and Kevan could be together- despite knowing that Gary would kill him if he found out about his thoughts. But Lewis did not want to meddle with Larissa’s decisions. Thus, he could only help Kevan out in secret like this.
Chapter 671 Although Larissa knew that the young man was purposely making things hard for her, he was still fine compared to some of the weird hotel guests she had met. Such little trouble was not enough to make her angry at all This time, Kevan replied very quickly. “You’re sick.” Larissa understood what he meant at once. That young man kept wasting their time, which caused her to catch a cold, which led to her having a fever and basically being sick. “My body is just weak. Bartham is too cold, and the wind is strong. Even if I didn’t go to the hospital today, I would have gotten sick anyway.” Kevan did not reply for a very long time. Alter some time, he finally texted three words. “I got it.” It was him reaching a compromise with her. Larissa let out a sigh of relief. “Thank you.” She did not want a whole family to be ruined because of her. The cold medication that the doctor gave her made her drowsy. After Larissa took it, she felt sleepy very soon after. When she was somewhat half–asleep, she heard someone pushing the door open. She struggled to open her eyes but could only manage to open a tiny crack to see. She was able to faintly see a tall man through this vision. “Lewis?” she said with great difficulty. Hearing the hum of confirmation from the man, she allowed herself to close her eyes. “Lewis” seemed to sit on the edge of the bed–Larissa could feel a part of the bed dipping down. A cold hand covered her forehead, and the touch was strangely familiar, But before she could figure it all out, the hand pulled back quickly. After that, “Lewis sat with her quietly until she fell asleep completely. After having the shot, taking medication, and sleeping for the whole night, Larissa measured her temperature after waking up–it was 98.6 *F. Her fever was almost gone. She felt better than she did yesterday too, and her arms and legs now had strength. Lewis came over early in the morning to give her breakfast. “You didn’t eat dinner last night. Don’t end up starving yourself.” Having starved for quite some time, Larissa’s eyes lit up when she smelled meat. Lewis sat nearby, watching her gobble everything with reliel. He also gave her a glass of water and told her to eat slower. ly the way, the thing you asked me about last night. I got someone to investigate-” “By t Larissa Interrupted Lewis, “I know who did it.” Lewis‘ guy only found out that it was the hospital director who immediately ordered the young man to be fired. But a small employee like him who had never even met the director could not have possibly offended the director, and the only person who could get the director to do this was a person with power and influence. Lews had only guessed then, but now that he saw Larissa’s reaction, he knew at once. “It was Mr. Rogers?” Larissa bit into her chicken sandwich, and she nodded blankly Lewis did not need to ask why Kevan did that then. Aller all, Kevan had no beel with the young man. To have done such a thing. It could only be because of Larissa. “Mr. Rogers is pretty good to you.” Lewis remarked.
