Chapter 880

Wendy anticipated that Larissa would be angry.

Alas, she didn’t expect her to be so furious.

Startled by Larissa’s reaction, Wendy spilled half of the coffee in her cup.

As the cale was heated, Wendy was only wearing a thin shirt.

The scalding coffee that splashed on her left an unsightly mark on the beige fabric.

Wendy look a sharp breath. She set the cup down as tears welled up in her eyes. She dabbed vigorously at the stain with a napkin.

Fortunately, there weren’t many people in the cale. The customers were sitting lar apart, so no one paid them any attention.

Only some of the waiters who walked back and forth glanced at them with puzzled looks.

Although she was still angry. Larissa couldn’t help feeling sorry for Wendy when she burst into tears.

“Why are you crying?” Larissa demanded, but her tone had softened.

Tears continued rolling down Wendy’s cheeks but she didn’t say a word.

Feeling drained. Larissa leaned back into the sola. “You wanted to talk to me, right? If you don’t say anything, how are we going to talk? Or

is this your way of pressuring me to drop the case?” she asked.

Wendy stopped dabbing at her shirt. She clutched the balled-up napkin and said, “I’m not pressuring you.”

From start to finish, she never intended to force Larissa’s hand because she believed in Edmund.

Wendy explained. “Edmund didn’t do anything wrong. If you are a person with principles, you should go to the police station and drop the

case.

“Edmund didn’t do anything wrong? Fine, it’s my fault anyway.” Larissa couldn’t stifle a mocking laugh when she heard what Wendy said.

Wendy looked up with tear-filled eyes and defended herself, “I have no intention to blame you

“Stop right there!” Larissa interrupted her in frustration. “I meant that it was my fault to be considerate of your feelings. I didn’t tell you the

truth, so you continued believing that Edmund is a good person.”

“The truth?” Wendy’s gaze grew complicated.

There weren’t any signs of surprise or confusion in her eyes.

It seemed as if she knew that Larissa was keeping something from her.

“Then tell me, what is the truth?”

Larissa took a deep breath and pondered on what to say. She decided to start with the least shocking facts first. “Edmund is Kevan’s

cousin. He has an older brother, Cody.”

Wendy had heard about this from Edmund, so she appeared unusually calm.

*I’ve mentioned the grudges between the Rogers family before. In a nutshell, they are involved in a dramatic struggle for the family’s wealth and inheritance. Cody and Edmund caused a lot of trouble for Kevan previously, A few years ago, Kevan was shot and fell into a

coma because of Cody.”

*This is just a conflict between Kevan and Cody. What does Edmund have to do with this? Wendy was still on Edmund’s side as she

delended Edmund

Larissa said, ‘I’m getting to that. Edmund was in charge of the Regal Dynasty Hotel, I came in contact with him when I was working in the

Bartham branch for some time.”

She paused for a moment before continuing. “At that time, Edmund had aggressively tried to pursue me even though he knew that I was

already married to Kevan.”
