Chapter 350
Sweet Subterfuge
Larissaâs words were like ascell, causing silence to the Eving room at once. It was broken by the loud sound of something smashing against the floor.
Staring, Larissa saw that Kevanâs phone was lying on the floor, not far from where he was. It was facing up, and the screen was now black, with spidery cra cks spreading through the glass.
âDonât ever let me hear you say the word âdivorceâ ever again.â 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 heen covered by a layer of shadon.
âOur maniase is a transaction,â Kevan bit out the last word. âThere is no reason for you to gain what you want from me only to walk away after.â
Larissa retorted. âYou can still achieve your goal even if you marry Ruby! Besides, sheâs the one you truly like, âMy family doesnât like her.â Kevanâs eyes narrowed, the dangerous aura radiating off of him causing Larissa to back away but Kewan puted her back over. âBut you gained my momâs approvalâ
His nose was less than an inch away from her. She only needed to move a little and she would touch him Swallowing nervously, Larissa asked, âThen do you plan to just keep her hanging like this?â
She actually really wanted to ask. âThen do you plan to just keep me hanging like this?â but she had no right to ask this question. This was a choice that she made in the beginning-even if she had not noticed that she liked Kevan at that time, and did not mind being with a man not love for the rest of her le this was purely a transaction, she would not have any regrets. But when this transaction had leelings mixed into itâ
No matter how hard she tried, she could not truly Ignore Kevan and Rubyâs intimacy, and she definitely could not control the jealousy she tell which hurt her heart, âShe does not care about statu Kevan stared at Larissa his gare never shi tting away on her. âShe just wants me.â
Larissa suddeny pressed her los really tightly together in the next second, she raised her right hand and slapped Kevan hard.
âF ucking as shole!â she screan Kevanâs puplis dilated, but his body never moved.
âNo woman would be willing to be some manâs secret lover, especially when sheâs deepy in love with said man!â Larissad not I ke Ruby. But at this moment, she really felt bad for her. âIf your parents donât like her, you should try everything you can to change their views of her, nd not simply marry another person to deal with them. The choice you made is unfair to everyone!
Her chest was heaving from her rage, and her face was red too.
Kevan watched her for a moment before he suddenly smiled. It was lighteningly cold, and there was a heavy sense of irony in it.
âNo. youâre the one who is bring unfair to me, Lanssa. His voice was very low, and a little muddled as well as hoa rse. Throwing me away after using me, and you even found a lofty reason for yoursel!â
Lar sseâs heart skoped a beat as she frantically sorted, âI did notâ
Kevanâs index linger pressed on her lips, preventing her from explaining further. His smile grew bigger even as his voice grew more rigid than ever. âRemember this. You had ight to begin this transaction, but I am the only one who can end ILâ
