Chapter 477
Her thoughts were swirling for a moment.
“Can I?” Aster took one step forward and held her hand, swaying it lightly while garing at her tearfully.
Larissa couldn’t bring herself to say no, but she still had her concerns. Although Ruby had been anested, she couldn’t help but wonder if Ruby had had anything to do with the accident in the parking lot, it had been someone else
“Okay,” she said and nodded. The kindergarten had strict regulations and no one was allowed entry or exit during class hours. As long as she sent him to school and picked him up punctually, there shouldn’t be any danger.
“That’s fantastic Aster was so happy that he launched himself into the air. He hugged Larissa and gave her a loud smooch. “Mommy is the best!”
After making sure that all was quiet outside, Aster hid under the blanket and sent Kevan a voice note. “Uncle Kevan, I’m going back to kindergarten. Good luck with work too! Let’s game together when we’re both free. How about that?”
Kevan called him straight away. “Did Mommy scold you?” he asked.
“Nope,” said Aster and showed off to Kevan. “Mommy is very gentle. She never scolds or smacks me. Every time I make a mistake, she talk to me about it. Even if Larissa had smacked him, he wouldn’t be as foolish as to rant about it to Kevan, He didn’t want to ruin Larissa’s image in Kevan’s eyes!
Kevan suddenly recalled that Larissa used to have a pet cat. When she was with him, she would always be distant flattering, cold, or tough. Only when she was with her cat would she show a hint of her gentle side. It always made him envious. Now, she had exposed her gentle side to Astor, but she was still as distant as always toward him. He also felt as envious as always.
“Is that so?” Kevan laughed softly, but his expression grew a little dimmer.
Aster couldn’t chat with him for too long. “I have to wake up early tomorrow to go to school, so I have to sleep early. Rest earlier too. Uncle Kewan. Goodnight
Kevan hummed in answer and said, “Goodnight.” Then, he added in his heart, “My dear.”
Kevan didn’t know why Larissa had suddenly agreed to allow Aster to return to kindergarten. It had only been a few days since the kidnapping incident, and Kevan wasn’t sure Aster was mentally ready to adapt to a place with so many people. But of course, the most important thing was “Have you found that person?” he asked the person on the other end of the cal.
“I’ve only found out his identity, but not his location. Two days after the incident, he went overseas. I’ve checked his bank transactions. After he left the country, Ruby Cole transferred him five hundred thousand dollars.”
After finding out that the person was connected to Ruby, most of Kevan’s worries disappeared. However Five hundred thousand dollars was considered a huge sum for someone like Ruby, who only laced at home with no source of income. She hadn’t gotten many benefits from her divorce from Cody back then. In that period of time, he had strongly fought against Cody and Cody did not hold a high position in Soaring Corporation.
Besides, Cody had probably planned to divorce Ruby since the beginning, so he had notarized all his property before the wedding and lowered his own salary to below ten thousand dollars. Of course, he could earn more money through other sources, but Ruby was unaware of it. The court also did not find out about it, so it had naturally been unnecessary for Cody to give Ruby half his wealth during the divorce.
That was why Ruby hadn’t gotten a lot of money from the divorce, Because Cody’s income was low, his alimony paid to her every month wasn’t much. It would have been too much of a challenge for Ruby to fork out live hundred thousand dollars in one lump sum, There must be someone helping her behind the scenes, and her backer must be–
