All Chapters of Sweet Subterfuge: Chapter 741 - Chapter 750

Kevan jolted hard, and his lips froze at Larissa's neck. However, his arms tightened around her and she had trouble breathing.Larissa sighed to herself and she lightly patted his back."So, you came to Westonia for a business trip?" She used a much more relaxing topic to try to change the room's atmosphere.Kevan did not respond though.Larissa waited for half a minute before she used an excuse for her own sake. "You did say that you were coming for a business trip."However, a few seconds later, Kevan said dully, "No."He was like Aster. They liked burying their faces in her neck. When they spoke, their lips rubbed against her skin, and it made her super uncomfortable.Larissa shifted a little and looked at Kevan in confusion. "Huh?"Kevan looked over to lock gazes with her too."I didn't come here for a business trip." He said it with such seriousness. "I came here specifically to see you."Larissa's heart skipped a beat. She hurriedly avoided his burning gaze as her voice

Dr. Smith did not stay for long. The moment he left, Larissa leaned over to snatch the bottle of medicine away from Kevan. She waved to Lewis and called him over.Lewis glanced at the angry Kevan, who was now as still as a statue. When he passed by the latter, he walked faster.The smell of the medicine grew stronger.Lewis frowned in disgust. He wished he could plug his nose right now. "Hang on." He drew two pieces of tissue out of their box from the bedside table at the head of the bed. He wrapped the medicine bottle with them before he held it in his hand.The way Lewis was right now was a sharp contrast to Kevan from before. Larissa's feelings grew complicated. She thought about it before she said to Kevan, "Why don't you go down and chat with the other guests? I only need Lewis here."It was hard for Kevan to come here. Even if he did come for her, it was only beneficial for him to make connections with all the influential business people downstairs in the living room.Howev

Lewis' question was too straightforward, and Larissa was not prepared."Huh?" Her eyes sparkled with something as she tried to fib. "I just thought that Dad was too much, so I said that to make him angry on purpose!""So, you feel nothing for Mr. Rogers?" Lewis pressed her.Larissa looked down. Her fingernails were digging into her palm. She did not want to let Lewis know how she felt. Still, she did not want to lie either.Lewis knew what a long silence meant. "I know your answer." His voice was mild. "Next time Uncle Gary does anything else, I'll help you."Larissa looked up. Lewis was not looking at her, and his expression was still normal."Don't tell Uncle Gary about this." He reminded her. "Otherwise, I'll be kicked out of the house."Larissa teared up because of how touched she felt.Although Lewis had always treated her like she was his biological sister, their relationship only formed because of Gary.She never expected Lewis to choose her when she was in conflict wit

Lewis' voice was very loud. Even if Larissa did not put her phone on speaker, Kevan could hear every single word Lewis said."What do you mean?" Larissa did not understand. "Didn't you tell him to take me home?" She looked at Kevan in the driver's seat in confusion. Kevan's face remained unchanged, but he pressed down harder on the gas pedal.Lewis suddenly was not angry anymore. His voice was much calmer than before. "I did tell him to bring you home."Larissa was confused. "What's going on?""I did tell Mr. Rogers to bring you home," Lewis said. "Uncle Gary was next to me earlier. I was afraid that he might kill me, so I had to act a bit."Larissa did not know why Lewis did not tell her before letting Kevan take her away. Still, she was reassured after she got confirmation from Lewis. At least, this was not some "kidnapping" scheme that Kevan planned."Text me once you get home. I'll be waiting for you at the company tomorrow. Just call me when you get there. I'll pick you

As Aster was there, Larissa did not let Kevan carry her. She held his arm and hopped forward that way. Aster quickly ran over to her other side and supported her. He kept nagging her all the way from the entrance hall to the bedroom."Mommy, stop wearing heels!"You're an adult now, why are you so careless when walking?"How am I supposed to be okay with you going to work alone like that!"Aster straight up copied the way Larissa scolded him and scolded his own mother the same way.Larissa just sat on the bed when Aster kicked off his slippers and wiggled into the sheets next to her."You promised me that I could sleep with you tonight!" He was afraid that she would go back on her word, so he clutched at the sheets tightly and wrapped himself into a cocoon. Only his forehead and eyes were shown.Larissa gently poked at his forehead. "I know!" She smiled dotingly at him though she was helpless at his actions. "It's not like I've chased you away yet. But—" Glancing at Kevan who wa
