Sweet Subterfuge Chapter 562
"I came to send a client to the emergency department. As I was about to leave, I ran into your cousin downstairs. We chatted for a bit, and he mentioned that you were awake, so I came up to visit you." Kevan walked past Lewis and came up to Larissa's bed. After Lewis turned him away yesterday, Kevan had no choice but to leave. Regardless, they were Larissa's relatives and had the right to be by her side. Secondly, Kevan wanted to talk to the doctor and understand more about Larissa's condition. In other words, this was the first time Kevan had met Larissa from the moment of the accident until now. Despite hearing from the doctor that her injuries were severe, Kevan couldn't help feeling shocked when he saw her with his own eyes. The pity he felt for Larissa and the desire to exact revenge on the culprit who did this to her resulted in an inscrutable expression on Kevan's face as he looked at her. However, Larissa's attention was drawn to the word "cousin" that Kevan menti

Probably because she had eaten something and her throat was moistened, her voice sounded less hoarse than before. However, she still felt a little breathless, so she had to take longer pauses between her words. "Your phone was turned off, so he couldn't reach you. He was so worried that he was almost in tears." In fact, Aster had already burst into tears. During their phone call, he was sobbing so hard that he couldn't speak clearly. He kept repeating, "Uncle Kevan, does my mommy not want me anymore?" Larissa had sent him back to Aldovia with such resolution, and now she seemed to be completely cutting off contact with him. It wasn't surprising that a sensitive and vulnerable child like him would have such thoughts. Naturally, Kevan wouldn't tell the truth to Larissa. "He's very worried about you. He kept asking if I knew where you were and what you were doing." Feeling sorry for Aster, Larissa couldn't help the tears that welled up in her eyes, almost spilling over.S

Larissa had no energy to beat around the bush. She asked straightforwardly, "Was it Yvette?" From Gary's reaction, it didn't seem to be the case. Gary hesitated for a moment and shook his head. "No, it's not her." Needless to say, Larissa was a little surprised by his answer. Since she returned to Caldor, she had kept a low profile and tried to avoid any contact with her enemies in the past. It was only for Aster's sake that she revealed the past in an exposé out of anger recently. "It's Lana." Before Larissa could probe further, Gary told her the answer. Lana … Her guess wasn't too far off anyway. Gary carefully observed Larissa's reaction. When he didn't see any signs of sadness or disappointment on her face, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. "She has already been taken into custody by the police." Gary didn't mention that it was largely thanks to Kevan. His men were in a hurry to send Larissa to the hospital, so they were unable to intercept the culprit. Fortu

If Larissa had known that her transfer to Caldor would result in such setbacks, she would have never returned despite not getting promoted for the rest of her life. As the saying went, "Once bitten, twice shy."Nonetheless, Larissa had been bitten many times, and yet she still hadn't learned to keep her distance from danger. She had to admire herself for her courage. But this time, she was truly afraid for her life. If she were to continue staying in Caldor, it wouldn't be just a matter of losing an arm or a leg, even her life would be at risk. "Great!" Gary smiled with joy, feeling incredibly relieved. In just a few short hours, he had resolved the two biggest challenges he had ever faced in his life. This made him happier than closing a deal worth billions of dollars. Since Larissa was severely injured, she still felt weak and mentally exhausted although she had slept for a long time. While chatting with Gary, she could not keep her heavy eyelids open and fell asleep

Kevan had been feeling frustrated over the past two days. He didn't know what he had done to offend Gary. Somehow, Gary seemed to have put Kevan on the blacklist and kept preventing him from visiting Larissa. Each time he rushed to the hospital eagerly, Lewis stopped him from meeting Larissa with various excuses. In desperation. Kevan resorted to his old method of introducing a caretaker. With that, he was able to plant an informant in Larissa's hospital ward. Mrs. Griffin would report Larissa's condition to him every day, but even so, he was not satisfied. At his wit's end, he turned to Dylan for help. "Help me think of a legitimate reason to meet Larissa." Kevan had tried numerous ways to enter Larissa's ward, such as sending her meals, giving her a cell phone, or delivering a message from Aster.Despite that, Lewis was adamant about not letting Kevan in. He informed Kevan politely that he would relay the message to Larissa on his behalf. "Isn't visiting a sick person a

Lately, Larissa had developed a liking for people to come and visit her. It was probably because she had to be confined to the hospital ward for a long time. News of her accident and hospitalization had spread to the hotel staff. Many people came to visit her in the first two days, but all of them were stopped by Lewis at the door. While her body needed rest, Larissa couldn't help feeling bored when she was all alone. After serious consideration and thought by Gary and Lewis, Dylan was the only person they allowed in.Dylan was like a ray of light for her and Larissa looked forward to his visits eagerly. She greeted him energetically with a genuine smile on her face. "Hello!" Her enthusiasm made Gary and Lewis feel discomfited. When she interacted with the two of them, she had never seemed that happy. Secretly, Gary came to a decision that they would have to restrict Dylan's visits as well. "Aren't you busy today?" Larissa gestured to Mrs. Griffin, and she immediately ca

The soft layers of pastry enveloped in dense cream and the tangy mango chunks slid across her tongue. The delicate texture and multiple layers of sweetness made Larissa sigh in delight. Since she was forced to eat nothing but bland food and supplements for the last few days, Larissa was moved to the point of tears at this moment.If she wasn't bound to the bed, she would have hugged Kevan out of sheer gratitude, exclaiming, "You're my savior!" Although the satisfied expression on Larissa's face was evident, the rest of the people in the ward felt different emotions that were evoked by her joy. The smile on Kevan's face widened and he stared at Larissa with a look of fondness and love, almost overflowing with affection. Conversely, a stony expression appeared on Gary's face. He pursed his lips and muttered with disapproval, "You shouldn't eat this much junk food in the future." Larissa simply acted as if she didn't hear what he said. It was Kevan who responded politely, "Ok

A handsome, attractive face was reflected in the mirror. At this moment, he had an expression of aroused lust on his face. His cheeks were flushed red from being turned on and his eyes were burning with desire. Parting his lips, Kevan raised his hand and stretched out his tongue. His eyes were half-closed as he licked every bit of the cream off his fingers slowly, imagining himself licking her soft and juicy pink lips. However, this was just a futile attempt to quench his thirst for her touch. Not only did it not satisfy him, his actions further intensified his longing to be intimate with her. Kevan clenched his fists, digging his nails into his flesh as he tried to alleviate his pent-up desire by the pain radiating from his palm. After about five minutes, he emerged from the restroom. Afraid of arousing suspicion, he even pretended to flush the toilet bowl. Larissa had already finished the cake and Gary was wiping her mouth with a tissue. When Gary heard the sound of
