Larissa looked back from the rear window of the car. She couldn't see Yvette or anyone else. Then, she leaned back in her seat. Slowly her pounding heart rate returned to normal. Then, she asked, "Why are you here?""I was passing by," Kevan replied indifferently.Larissa didn't believe him. "You were waiting for me. Why? How did you know I would come out from the back?" Still, Kevan insisted, "I just happened to pass by."Larissa pursed her lips and stared at him as if trying to find an answer. However, Kevan didn't seem to care about her gaze and looked at the front steadily. Soon, they drove into Foxtail Garden. Once again, Larissa leaned against the car window. It was as quiet as it usually was, and there wasn't a single soul on the street. When the car drove through the leaves, it made a crisp sound. Then, she saw a strange car parked below their building. The end of the car faced the road, and it was hard to figure out if someone was in the car, making Larissa nervous.

The words ‘matching set for couples’ popped into Larissa’s mind, and she quickly rejected the idea. The most reasonable answer to this was that he bought all the slippers in the store for convenience. If she looked in his shoe cabinet, she would find … What? Nothing inside?This discovery was unexpected, and she suddenly found the slippers uncomfortable. Then, Kevan put their shoes back into the cabinet. When he turned back, he saw Larissa staring at the shoe cabinet with a complicated gaze. He wasn’t sure what she was thinking about."What’s the matter?" he asked. Only then did Larissa return to her senses and force a smile. "Nothing.""Come in." Kaven ignored her. He took off his jacket and simply threw it on the sofa."Sit." Larissa followed his order and sat on the edge of the sofa while Kaven entered the kitchen.His kitchen was open, so she could clearly see him opening the freezer door and fumbling through it. When he came back, he'd gotten her an ice pack. "Put it

Dylan deliberately emphasized the word "girlfriend" and dragged out the end syllable of the word.Larissa's face turned red, and she immediately explained, "Julia misunderstood the situation.""I don't think it's a misunderstanding. Aren't you Kevan's girlfriend?" Dylan showed a sincere expression. Just as Larissa was about to retort, he added, "Your contract wasn't signed for nothing."That made Larissa shut up. Then, Dylan rapped on the table and addressed Kevan, who had been standing in place after he entered the house. "Aren't you going to pan-fry the steak?" Kevan shot him a warning glare and said, "I didn't prepare anything for you." "Well, I don't like steak anyway." Dylan acted as if he didn't understand the meaning of his words as he looked at the steaming pot. "I'll have some seafood instead." Kevan couldn't scold him in front of Larissa, so he temporarily suppressed his anger and scooped a spoonful of butter into the pan.Dylan had no intention of stopping and sa

When the door closed, Kevan set his cutlery down on the table."Aren't…" Before Dylan could finish his sentence, Kevan discarded all the remaining food into the trash can, including the lobster he had peeled. "Hey!" Dylan exclaimed, but it was too late for him to stop Kevan. "If you don't want to eat it, you can give it to me," Dylan complained. However, Kevan ignored him and cleaned the table with a cold expression. Once he was done, he put all the plates into the sink. Then, he turned on the tap and washed away the dirt on his hands. He pointed at the sink and told Dylan, "You're responsible for washing the dishes." After saying that, Kevan went to take a shower. Dylan was still there when he came out, sitting on the sofa and watching TV. Kevan noticed that the sink was now empty. Kevan draped the towel around his neck and asked impatiently, "Why are you still here?"Dylan crossed his legs and adopted a serious expression. "I need to teach you a lesson," he declared.

After a few days of being on high alert, Larissa never encountered Yvette again. She surmised that Yvette must have returned to Bartham. Larissa thought that Yvette had probably learned from the Hardy family that her disobedient daughter had finally received a deserving punishment. Although she was slightly hurt by the whole ordeal, at the very least, her reputation wouldn't be affected. Hence, she didn't need to stay in Covenford anymore.While Travis' funeral was taking place, Larissa seized the opportunity to accompany Dylan to the courthouse. With Travis no longer alive, the need for a divorce dissipated. Nevertheless, Larissa had to address matters concerning the house. Substantial evidence emerged, prompting the housing authorities to acknowledge their errors and declare the transfer procedures for Travis' property as invalid. As a result, the ownership transfer was revised, designating Larissa as the rightful owner.The entire process was not without its challenges. Fortunatel
