All Chapters of Sweet Subterfuge: Chapter 881 - Chapter 890

"What did you say? Edmund pursued you?" Wendy couldn't believe her ears. Larissa nodded. "Not many people knew about this. I haven't been using that number in a long time, so I can't show you the messages that he sent me. You can choose whether to believe me or not." Wendy remained silent. Larissa couldn't help feeling disappointed. Larissa never thought that her years of friendship with Wendy could be outweighed by a scumbag whom she had known for less than two months. "Edmund didn't fall in love with you at first sight. He got close to you with ulterior motives. "He wanted to use you to blackmail me and Kevan. This was so that he could gain control of Soaring Corporation and secure wealth for his family." Although Larissa's words were true, the truth sounded harsh to Wendy's ears. "How do you know that he couldn't have fallen in love with me? How can you be sure that he truly doesn't love me? Larissa, stop overestimating yourself! "Will you ever stop thinking that the

"It's too late to wait for him to go to jail!" Larissa slammed the beer can on the ground, splashing alcohol all over her clothes. Kevan felt a headache coming on. On the other hand, Larissa seemed oblivious. Although she was already drunk, she grabbed the can of beer and took another big gulp. "Wendy has been brainwashed by him, don't you know that?"She turned to Kevan and grabbed his collar with her oily fingers. She left five oily marks on Kevan's white shirt. "Wendy's been brainwashed by him! She doesn't believe in me now! She said that I'm a liar and that I disgust her!" Larissa gripped his collar and shook him. Remembering Wendy's hurtful words, Larissa's heart ached. Kevan finally realized the gravity of the situation. Clapping his hands on her shoulders, he forced Larissa to calm down. "What did Edmund tell Wendy?" he asked with a frown. "Can you believe it? Edmund actually turned the story upside down! He told Wendy that I deliberately broke them up!

"I'm here to clear up the misunderstanding between you two," Kevan said. Wendy's heart sank. "Misunderstanding? There's no misunderstanding between me and Larissa," she sneered. Kevan took two steps forward and sat down on the sofa. "Do you want to come and sit? Aren't you pregnant? Standing for a long time will make your feet ache," he asked Wendy amicably. "I have no need for your concern!" Perhaps because of Wendy's bias, everything Kevan did reeked of an ulterior motive. "Alright then, you can stand there." Kevan didn't insist. He wasn't going to force his kindness on someone who didn't appreciate it. "I heard that you want Larissa to drop the case," Kevan got straight to the point. "Wrong, it's you who should drop the case." Wendy stared at Kevan pointedly. Since Kevan was the one who reported to the police, he should be the one to drop the case. "Edmund shouldn't go to jail for something he didn't do," Wendy continued. "Something he didn't do? Tell me, w

"Which room was it? Was it at Maple Hotel?" Wendy asked anxiously. Vick chuckled. "No, it's not. The room in Maple Hotel was afterward. Initially, you were placed in a basement that Edmund rented temporarily. "That woman named Larissa, your friend offered herself in exchange for you. She forced Edmund to have you sent to the Maple Hotel." "Larissa in exchange for me?" Wendy was stunned. Edmund had never mentioned this to her, and neither did Larissa. However, the way Vick spoke about it didn't seem like he was making it up. "Edmund's ultimate goal was to capture Larissa and bring her back to Caldor. He employed me and my underlings to keep an eye on her and ensure that she couldn't escape. "Since he couldn't capture Larissa, he took you as leverage instead. He threatened Larissa so that she would meet him." The fact that Edmund drugged her was true, but Wendy had no idea what happened afterward. When she woke up, she and Larissa were lying safely in Maple Hotel. T

Realizing what Kevan was about to do, Wendy screamed in horror. "Mr. Rogers, calm down! Larissa won't agree with you killing people! Do you really want to be stuck in prison for the rest of your life, leaving your wife and kid alone?" "Who said I was going to kill anyone?" Kevan's smile became wider. With a slight move of his finger, Kevan pulled the trigger. A gunshot echoed in the room and a thug let out a howl. "My foot! My foot is shot!" A bullet was lodged in his foot and blood gushed out from the wound. Wendy had never seen anything gory in her life. Covering her eyes, she screamed and turned away. She quickly ran into the bathroom and locked the door. Several more gunshots ensued and various cries of pain rang out. Wendy covered her ears with her hands. She tried to stop herself from imagining the gruesome scene that was happening outside. After a long pause, there was a knock on the bathroom door. Kevan's voice came through the frosted glass door. "Ms.
