Sweet Subterfuge のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 831 - チャプター 840

Larissa was decorating the cake when she heard Freddy's offer. She froze in place and stared at the tarts in his hands. Larissa didn't know how to respond. Aster had a strawberry in his hand and placed it on the cake. He ignored Freddy. Freddy's face fell. Larissa realized that his feelings might have been hurt, so she quickly took the tarts. She stuffed one into Aster's hand. "Thank you." She bent down and ruffled Freddy's hair affectionately. Only then did Freddy show a shy smile. Aster turned away with pursed lips. He gripped the tart in his hand, but he didn't eat it nor throw it away. The competition ended. As expected, Larissa's strawberry cake didn't win any prizes. However, it received unanimous praise from Aster's classmates. Larissa suspected that most of the credit was because of Kevan's and Aster's good looks. Allen cleared up his table and came over to ask Larissa, "We're going out for dinner. Do you want to join us?" Larissa declined his offe

They ended up eating dinner at home. Larissa had no appetite. She picked at her food before making an excuse to go back to her bedroom. When Kevan entered the room, he saw her sitting on the edge of the bed with her head down. She was looking at her phone with a conflicted expression. Hearing his footsteps, Larissa looked up and asked Kevan, "Did you already know earlier on?" Thinking back, his unusual behavior made sense."Not that early. The night before yesterday, I heard that man's voice on Wendy's video call. I found it familiar, but I only suspected it." Kevan walked over to her and sat down. "So, that's why you deliberately offered to pick him up at the airport to confirm your suspicions?" "Yes." Now that things had progressed this far, Kevan had no need to hide anything. Although Wendy declined his offer, Kevan managed to confirm his suspicions on his own yesterday. His ears had not deceived him. This whole situation had become quite tricky. "Are yo

Larissa was startled out of her skin. She almost forgot to maintain the expression on her face. Kevan remained composed. "Didn't we discuss moving earlier? Since we're free, we'll move some of our things to the new house." This topic was initiated by Wendy herself yesterday. When she heard Kevan's words, she didn't suspect anything. "You found a house so quickly?" Kevan smiled. "I've been planning it for a while." Wendy gave him a thumbs up. "Truly befitting your style, Mr. Rogers!" Larissa turned her back toward Wendy to avoid eye contact with her. Wendy hugged Larissa from behind and asked jokingly, "What's wrong? Missing me already?"Larissa choked up and spoke in a trembling voice, "Yeah." "It's not like we won't see each other anymore! Don't worry, I'll come over often to mooch off your meals!" Wendy consoled her instead. "Okay." Larissa grabbed her hand and squeezed her eyes shut. She tried not to think about the jumbled mess in her mind. Aster seemed very

Kevan bought a flight ticket back to Caldor. Before he left, he helped Larissa move into their new place. Their new home was only two streets away from Larissa's original apartment. It was a penthouse on the 43rd floor with a beautiful view, overlooking the entire city of Westonia. It wasn't Kevan's best property in Westonia. Still, it was the most suitable for Larissa and Aster at the moment. The interior design and furniture were left behind by the previous owner. Although it didn't completely match their tastes, Kevan had no time to renovate the property due to the recent purchase. The advantage was that everything they needed was already available. They didn't need to worry about the hassle of renovating the place just yet. Regardless, both Larissa and Aster were satisfied. Kevan's schedule was tight. After moving all their luggage to the new house, he had to leave. With tears in his eyes, Aster grabbed his leg and refused to let Kevan go. His anguish was a

Larissa was still in the middle of planning how to break Wendy and Edmund up when a sudden call from Wendy interrupted her.Wendy asked, "Are you free now? Can you accompany me to the hospital?"Larissa had been having extra lessons in Lewis' office when she got that call. The moment she did, she put down her work and applied for a half-day leave from Lewis.Wendy did not seem to go to work that day. Larissa went home to pick her up. Wendy left the house without makeup, and she looked a little weak. There were heavy dark circles under her eyes.Larissa asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"Wendy bit her lip and stayed silent for a while. Then, she sighed and said quietly, "I … might be pregnant.""What?!" Larissa was so shocked that her hands jerked on the steering wheel, turning it around, causing the car to nearly bang into the roadside. Thankfully, Larissa was able to turn the car back the right way, but it did not stop the drivers behind her from honking at her angrily and loudl
