Chapter 694
Sweet Subterfuge
Kevan did not move. He seemed not to have heard Larissaâs words, and he did not even bother to look at her. He stared at the man in black rushing at him. The moment the man in black reached out Kevan swiftly grabbed the manâs wrist.
The man screamed in pain as the knife in his hand fell to the floor.
Kevan moved his foot and kicked the knife under the car parked nearby.
The man in black watched as the knife vanished under the car. Then, his eyes were filled with fear and hopelessness.
âYou ââ He just started to speak when his feet were suddenly off the floor. He had no time to react as his world turned wildly about. Then, his back slammed heavily onto the floor, and he felt like his spine was going to break. The man in black moaned in pain as tears spilled down his cheeks.
Kevan slood next to him before dropping one loot onto the manâs chest while he gazed at him. âWho sent you?â he asked coldly.
The man refused to speak. Kevan pressed down harder with his fool, and the man screamed in pain again. âI canât say! Heâll kill my whole family!â
Kevan smiled coldly. âIf you donât say itâArenât you afraid that I will kill your whole family?â
The man in black froze as he stared at Kevan in disbelief.
âYou should know, itâs easy for me to hire someone to kill people.â Kevanâs voice was calm. It was like he was only talking about something simple and not threatening another person with his familyâs lives.
The man in black seemed to be weighing his options.
Kevan tossed out a bait. âI promise you as long as you cooperate with me, I will protect your family.â
The man in blackâs eyes it up.
âReally?â
He began to waver.
*Relax, Iâm more trustworthy than whoever it was who hired you.â Kevan sounded a little scomlul The man in black was silent for a moment before he decided. âI believe you.â
âIâm Ronan, and Iâm a security guard at the hotel. The one who asked me to kidnap Ms. Seymour is the assistant manager of the hotel Bryan Harrison.â
Kevan had plenty of guesses, but he did not expect this to be the true answer. He glanced at Larissa, who was still in the car. Her eyes were wide, and she was staring blankly at the man on the floor. She was clearly affected by it all âI will see if youâre telling the truth,â Kevan said.
âIf you donât believe me, I have evidence with me, I can show you,â Ronan could not be bothered to conceal the truth at this point. He only âVery wellâ Kevan agreed.
They had just made the deal when Lewis Inally arrived with a les policemen.
Seeing that the man in black was already under Kevanâs control, Lewis forced himself to feel relieved.
The police pulled Ronan up from the floor and handcuffed him. Then, they questioned Kevan about what had happened.
He smashed the car to steal I caught him.â Kevan purposely hid the truth and tossed out a crime that would give Ronan a lighter I punishment. It could be considered a display of his âsincerityâ to Ronan, The police knew Kevan, Rumors about him had caused quite an uproar on the internet, so it was hard not to know him.
Naturally, they would not suspect Kevanâs words either.
âPlease go ahead. I still have something to do here. I go over later myself.â Kevan dismissed the policemen first because he was still worried about Larissa
