Chapter 682
Sweet Subterfuge
Janine Levange, who Larissa had not seen in a very long time, was wearing the uniform of the hotelâs Janitor. She was holding a mop. There was a part of the floor that was still wet in front of Larissaâs room door.
Janineâs back was more hunched than ever. She was also skinnier.
âLar!â
Janine forced out a flattering smile that Larissa had rever even seen from her before.
Janineâs winkles deepened with that act. She threw down the mon and rushed toward Larissa.
The speed at which she walked did not match her aged appearance.
Larissa gasped as she backed away, her right hand gripping Lewisâ arm on instinct.
Lewis had only seen pictures of Larissaâs former motherâinâlaw on the informational documents.
Although the woman in the picture had not taken great care of herself, she was still so much younger than Janine was now.
That was why he did not recognize her at first.
Larissaâs tear mace Lewis more alert. He stepard in front of her to separate her from that weird âJanitor.â
Lewisâ act made Janine stop. She observed his affectionate position with Larissa and pursed her los, a hint of disgust flashing through her eyes. But she cuickly concealed it.
âLari Janine stared at Larissa pitifully, her thin hands wringing together.
Janine lacked somewhat sad and hurt.
waiting for you âMomâs been waiting you for the whole day here. I havenât even eaten!â
However, the sympathy card did not work for Larissa now.
âIf you donât leave now, Iâll call security up.â Larissa threatened her coldly.
Janine acted like she did not expect Larissa to be so heartless. She made her Ips tremble as tears began to well up in her eyes.
âLar, I know I was wrong before-
She had not even finished speaking when she already collapsed onto the floor on her knees.
âMomâs begging you! Please forgive me!â
Her tears began to fall down her wrinkled cheeks.
Larissa watched coldly. Her emotions remained uncharged. She was sure that there was a purpose to Janineâs act today. It would not have anything to do with making amends with her.
Larissa fell for her phone. Although she was no longer the general manager here, her connections with the people of Winston Hotel were still there.
She called the assistant manager.
âThereâs somecre sticking around my room door. Please have security come up here.â
Hearing that, Janine panicked. Her lake mask crumbled at once to reveal a hideous snarl âYouâre a heartless bitch, Larissa! Whereâs your conscience?!â
She got up from the floor and stabbed a finger at Larissa as she screamed at her.
âIve already begged for forgiveness. What else do you fucking want? I didnât even hold you responsible when you killed Travis! You ungrateful wretch! You know nothing about gratitude at all!â
Well, Janine had not seemed to change much aller so many years. She still Iked to slander others and distort the Irulh âFirstly, Travis Hardyâs death has nothing to do with me. Secondly, there were terms atta: hed to the one million that Yvette gave you guys Larissa paused briefly.
âIf you appear in front of me again, you must return that one million.â
It was because of this extra term from Yvette that Larissa was able to have so many peaceful years away from the Hardys. Now that Larissa thought about it, Yvette had done something nice for her after all âWhat terms?â
Janine pretended to be dumb.
âI donât remember any terms. What Yvette gave us was compensation money! It was meant to buy our silence so that we wouldnât sue you!
Her denial of the matter was probably because of Yvetteâs death, which meant that ro one could confront her anymore.
Larissa was so angry that she had a little trouble breathing. Her chest hurt as well.
