Larissaâs heart sank. âWhat did he say to you?â
âHe knows that Iâm your ex-husband.â Kevan stared at Larissa calmly.
âHe must have guessed it I never told him that.â
Larissa never discussed her private matters with others.
Even the fact that Aster was her biological son was revealed accidentally when Aster let it slip during a playdate with Freddy.
Later, it was Freddy who told Allen about this
âHe even knew about Ruby.â Kevan felt uneasy when he mentioned her name.
He observed Larissaâs reaction closely. As expected, there was a flicker in Larissaâs eyes.
âHe didnât know Rubyâs name, but he knew about the things that happened between the three of us-
Kevan continued.
Thus, Allen was convinced that Larissa and him were merely acting.
Allen had wamed him, asking Kevan to leave on his own accord.
He even said that he was the only man worthy of Larissa.
âHe probably had someone investigate me, or someone close to us reached out to him. Given that Edmund appeared here out of the blue. I suspect that both of them are in contact,â Kevan concluded.
Larissa tried to brush off the unease she fell when Rubyâs name was mentioned,
She tried to focus on the main issue. âSo, Edmund is here to come after us?â
Kevan didnât give her an affirmative answer. âIâm just suspicious about it.â
He reached out and rubbed her furrowed brow. âDonât worry. Didnât I promise you that Iâd handle it?â
Wendy was not the only worrying thing on Larissaâs mind right now.
It wouldnât be that hard to separate Edmund and Werdy.
Kevan might only need to make a phone call and it could be done within two days.
What worried her more was Kevanâs safety.
Regardless of what Edmund did or was planning to do his end goal would be to eliminate Kevan.
âWhat about if you return to Caldor?â After hesitating for a while. Larissa spoke up.
âWhat?â Kevanâs smile froze.
âYou would be caler In Caldor.â Larissa explained.
After all Kevanâs stronghold was in Caldor, He would be more protected there. Moreover, many unexpected events could happen in
Aldovia.
Random shootings and gang fights on the streets could serve as a cover for an assassination attempt
âI donât wish the people around me to keep getting involved in our problems,â Larissa said.
First, it was Wendy, then Allen, Next, it could be Lewis or Gary.
She didnât mind lacing danger with Kevan, but she didnât want to see her family and friends getting into trouble as well
âI understand. Edmund came to Aldovia because of me. Il elt, he would leave as well. Then, Wendy would be out of danger without you needing to do anything. As for your ex-boss hali!â Kevan shilled his gaze away from Larissa and smirked.
He picked up the clothes beside him and got up. âAs you wish. I will leave tomorrow morning.â

st relying on her father and cousinâs influence in the
n her current position, she did not have the ability to ensure his safety. She was s
company. She had not built up her own influence here vel.
Larissa did not have the power to bypa ss them to achieve her goals.
Regarding Kevanâs matters, she couldnât seek help from them. She was well aware of Garyâs allitude toward Kevan.
If he learned about the danger that Kevan would bring, Gary would do everything in his power to stop them from being together.
âThatâs enough. You donât need to blame yourself or feel guilty. I donât want to cause trouble for you either.â Kevan brushed her hand away.
In the end. he couldnât truly be mad at her.
Whenever he saw her distressed expression, his heart would soften.
