Chapter 115
Sweet Subterfuge
Outside the apartment building was a supermarket. Most families slaying at Foxtail Garden had their own nanny, and they rarely cooked. These nannies usually came here early to buy the ingredients they needed that day.
Therefore, when Larissa and Kevan amived, there werenât a lot of customers, and most ingredients were gone, leaving a lew vegetables on the shelves.
Kevan brought a lobster, steak and some seasonings to save time. When they arrived at the cashier, a woman came in from outside and saw Kevan. She asked in surprise. âMr. Rogers? Why are you here?â
Larissa looked over to see a woman around her fillies. She had a grocery bag on her shoulder, so she had to be someoneâs nanny.
âIâm buying some ingredients.â Kevan took his credit card back from the cashier before putting everything in the bag.
The woman looked at him and then at Larissa. âDo you need me to prepare dinner tonight?â
Kevan replied, âNo.â
The lady nodded repeatedly and said, âOkay!â
Then, she looked at Larissa again.
When they left the supermarket, Kevan told her about the woman. âDylan hired her to cook.â
Larissa had guessed it, so she wasnât surprised.
âIs Mr. Shields coming back soon? Should we wait for him for dinner? Although Larissa suggested this casualy, the atmosphere suddenly became cold.
âHe wonât be back early. Donât think about him,â Kevan didnât stop and walked forward quickly.
In the kitchen, Kevan simply bolled the seafood with some cooking wine and ginger. Then, he took out a pan from the kitchen cabinet and prepared to cook the steak.
Actually, Larissa wasnât confident in his cooking skills. He had several positions and managed all kinds of activities daily. So, he must not have cooked a lot. She could see how hard it was for him to chop up ginger.
âWhy donât I do it? Larissa accompanied him into the kitchen, and Kevan failed to make her leave.
âItâs line.â He unbuttoned his sleeves and rolled them up to show his muscular arms. Then, he stood behind her and guarded her head.
âDonât move.â He opened the cabinet above her to get an apron. In just a few seconds, from the moment he touched her. Larissa felt her body stiffen, and her heart pound.
Even after he left, she was still in a daze.
âHelp me tie this,â she heard Kevan say and quickly turned back.
At this moment, Kevan had his back against her. When she turned to look at him, she found an apron around his neck, and two strings were hanging on his waist.
âOh!â Larissa extended her hand to grab the two strings and seriously gave him a beautiful bow.
âItâs done.â Just as Larissa finished, she heard a sneer.
âYou two look like a married couple.â It was Dylan. Both of them were clueless as to when he returned.
At this moment, he was leaning against the shoe cabinet at the door, looking at them with a smile.
Larissa was surprised by his appearance and shuddered.
âWhy were you so quiet when you came in?â she complained.
âThe scene was beautiful and I didnât want to disturb it.â Dylan smiled meaningfully.
Kevan glared at him. âWhy are you here?â
âOf course, Iâm here to eat.â Dylan walked to the dining room table and sat down.
âDidnât Julia cock dinner?â Kevan nanowed his eyes.
âShe just made me pasta. How could that be compared to lobster and steak?â Dylan supported his chin and smiled Innocently.
âHowever, I wanted to see who was the pretty criend that Julla mentioned.â
