Chapter 1006
Sweet Subterfuge
Since Larissa had gone downstairs alone. It was natural to expect a few questions.
âWhereâs Kevan? Why isnât he coming down with you?â
âWhereâs Daddy? He said he would launch fireworks with me.â
Larissa waked over calmly and made up an excuse. âHeâs tired, so he showered and slept.â
The older people did not doubt her. Only Lewâs stared at her thoughtfully.
âOhâWhy did Daddy sleep so early?â Aster pouted in disappointment.
âYou can get him to launch fireworks with you tomorrow. Itâll be the same.â Larissa patted his head, keeping a calm expression on her face.
Anthony and Viclet gave the gifts theyâd prepared to Larissa and Aster.
Violet looked at them, tears falling down her cheeks.
âI have no regrets now,â she said.
âThank you, Mom. Larissa gave her a big hug.
Violet was stunned, and she cried harder.
âGood girlâ She hugged Larissa back, smiling widely.
After Anthony and Violet, Gary and Lewis gave them their gifts. However, they were calm. Aster was so happy that he jumped for joy.
Once the little ceremony was over, the parents began showing signs of their exhaustion.
Anthony said, âItâs getting late.â
Larissa reached out to Aster. âItâs time for you to sleep, Aster.â
Aster was holding all his gifts. He put them reluctantly in Larissaâs arms and followed her upstairs.
Once Lanssa put Aster to sleep, she dawdled around before assuming that Kevanâs temper was probably gone.
The entire house was quiet.
Everyone else had probably slept.
Larissa opened the bedroom door. It was dark Even the nightlight that sheâd left behind has been turned off.
While she was wondering how weird it was an arm in the dark shot out and grabbed her by the wrist, pulling her into the room.
Larissa wanted to scream, but someone clamped their hand over her mouth.
Kevan closed the door with his heel Then, the door was locked with a âclickâ. Larissa was then pushed against the wall.
In the dark, all she saw was a pair of bright eyes, iluminated green.
Larissa shuddered.
She had no idea how Keyan had managed to escape from the ties sheâd tied on him. But now was n âI was wrong,â she apologized immediately, Irying to put him in a good mood.
âIll give you one more chance.â Kevan was unmoved.
He pressed her firmly against the wall and began biling her solt lips.
not a good time to ask.
Larissa knew that struggling would only anger him. She put her arms around his neck and said softly. âI know I was wrong.â
Kevan could resist no longer. He swept her off her feel and threw her onto the bed.
The next day arrived.
Without incident, Larissa woke up late.
The moment she opened her eyes, it was already ten in the moming. Besides her, everyone else had already had their breaklasi. Gary and Lewâs had already left the Rogersâ villa while she was still dreaming. Theyâd gone back to her house with Kevan in the city center.
