All Chapters of Sweet Subterfuge: Chapter 341 - Chapter 350

Violet panicked.Larissa was the second woman Kevan had proactively wanted to marry. If she let her go, Violet had no idea how many years she would have to wait for her next daughter-in-law. Most importantly, Violet really liked Larissa after having spent time with her during this period, and she really treated her as if she was her own biological daughter."Marriage is not a game." Violet's face darkened as well. "I can understand your anger, but this is ultimately Lari and Kevan's life, and they should be the ones to discuss and solve this matter.""Discuss?" Yvette laughed coldly, her gaze at Larissa holding love that never existed before. "There is such a huge gap between Lari and Kevan in terms of social status. To marry into your family, won't she just be bullied and pushed around by your people? I don't believe that Kevan would really want to discuss and solve the matter with Lari!"If this was under normal circumstances, Larissa would have lost her temper and thrown their w

After Yvette and Lana left, the atmosphere of the Rogers family home living room became awkward, now that Larissa and Violet were the only ones left."Mom …" Larissa spoke first, "Please don't take the nasty things my aunt and sister said to heart.""I know." Violet nodded, smiling as she comforted her. "I'm alright. They were just worried about you too. I can understand that." But her smile was not as natural as it would normally be, Larissa could tell that Violet was already swayed by the Seymours. She just needed to give it a little bit more …"Mom, actually, there are some things I need to confess." She kept her head down, her face was one of guilt.Hearing this, Violet straightened up subconsciously as her smile gradually vanished."As you've heard my aunt and sister say, you can probably already tell that I was married once before." Larissa's voice was very light, her hands gripping the armrests of the wheelchair tightly. She did not look up at Violet, not even once.Divorc

It was only after Kevan promised that he would return from the company as fast as he could that Lucas returned Larissa's phone to her.Larissa led Lucas upstairs—After all, many residents would come and go, so to stay at the entrance of the building was a little too jarringly obvious.The Rogers family driver did not leave. He remained dutifully by Larissa's side, his eyes fixed steadily on Lucas."Didn't you say that you wanted to apologize to Kevan? Why did it change into needing to find him for something important?" Larissa asked. She thought that "something important" was just Lucas' excuse for getting Kevan to come back home. She did not expect him to say, "My true purpose of coming over today is to tell Mr. Rogers about this 'important' matter. When I said I wanted to apologize, I just wanted you to open the door for me. But … I didn't expect you to be so cautious against me too." He lowered his head, smiling bitterly.Larissa did not know if he was telling the truth or a lie

"You agreed?" Kevan studied Larissa with narrowed eyes. He knew that she had been wanting to get divorced since the day they'd gotten married. Now that there was such a good opportunity before her, she had no reason to not hold on to it. The moment he thought of that, his heart began to make its way up to his throat, and he unconsciously slowed down his breathing.Larissa felt a numb, tingling sensation from his stare, and she turned away guiltily.Kevan's face darkened further as he sneered. "Happy now?"Larissa's hands, which were in her lap, clenched tightly together, and chills ran down her spine. She licked her dry lips before answering his first question, "I didn't agree."Her answer seemed to be out of Kevan's expectations. He was stunned for two seconds and his heart began to race."Why?" His face remained taut as his smile became a jeer. "Didn't you always want to divorce me?""That's because I knew you wouldn't agree, dipshit." Larissa could only keep such words deep in

Larissa's words were like a spell, causing silence to fill the living room at once. It was broken by the loud sound of something smashing against the floor.Starting, Larissa saw that Kevan's phone was lying on the floor, not far from where he was. It was facing up, and the screen was now black, with spidery cracks spreading through the glass."Don't ever let me hear you say the word 'divorce' ever again." Kevan advanced upon her, leaning down as he used two fingers to grip her chin to force her to look at him.His eyes had darkened a great deal, as if it had been covered by a layer of shadow."Our marriage is a transaction." Kevan bit out the last word. "There is no reason for you to gain what you want from me only to walk away after."Larissa retorted, "You can still achieve your goal even if you marry Ruby! Besides, she's the one you truly like.""My family doesn't like her." Kevan's eyes narrowed, the dangerous aura radiating off of him causing Larissa to back away but Kevan
