Chapter 901
As it turned out, "mothers know best" was a truth that would never change.Larissa stared at all the scribbles that were drawn as she asked Gary, "This is what you call 'very talented'?"Gary was shockingly still able to praise every little part of Aster's drawing. "Look at this curve here, how perfect! And this little thin line here, and this one …""Sure, then." Larissa crossed her arms as she asked Gary, "Then can you tell me what the hell he just drew?"This definitely made Gary feel lost. He tipped his head to the side as he brought the papers closer and further away from him. He was staring holes into the papers, and yet he still could not tell what was drawn on them.Finally, he tried to guess. "Is that … a very tall chicken?""Noooo! That's not it!" Aster snatched away his "masterpiece" from Gary with annoyance. "This is Ke—van—Ro—gers! It's my daddy!"Gary's expression changed at once, and he did not speak for a long while.Larissa watched her father's speechless face

Gary kept Larissa for dinner before letting her and Aster go home. Aster was already tired when he got into the car, so he slept for the rest of the journey home.When Larissa got to their apartment building, she called Kevan and said, "Your son's fallen asleep, come get him upstairs."Kevan simply picked Aster up without any problems. Although Larissa already knew about the difference in strength between men and women, she was still shocked at Kevan's display of strength."This brat has gotten fat at my dad's place. I get super tired after holding him for a while. If you weren't here today, I'd have no idea how to get him upstairs."Kevan's footsteps were steady and calm. His strong arms did not even tremble. Smiling, Kevan said, "Next time, just let me do this kind of hard work.""Sure!" Larissa agreed happily. After they entered the elevator, she asked, "Has Wendy gone to sleep?""No idea. She ate dinner and went back to her room. She never came out after that.""Oh. How is s

Aster looked like he was happier to see Kevan than he was to see Larissa.Larissa sneered coldly with jealousy. "Oh, so now you're happy, huh? I don't even know who it was who said he 'loved Grandpa the most' at Grandpa's place and that compared to Daddy, he still 'loved Grandpa the most.'"Larissa had intended to put a wedge between Kevan and Aster. Alas, they did not fall into her trap.Aster defended himself. "Grandpa is older! Of course, I need to make him happy!"Kevan patted Aster's head proudly as he praised the kid. "Well done, you did the right thing."Aster was smugger than ever.Larissa was unhappy as she asked, "Then if I asked you to choose right now, do you love me or love your daddy?""I love Mommy!" Aster did not have any trouble answering at all as his response was immediate. "Mommy, you've asked this so many times!" He eyed Larissa with great scorn. He did not bother hiding it."Uh …" Larissa carefully thought about it. She seemed to have asked him this ques

Larissa and Aster took turns comforting Wendy until she stopped crying.Aster even suggested sleeping with Wendy that night to show that he still liked her. This nearly set Wendy off for the second time.After finally dealing with both Wendy and Aster, Larissa returned to her room.Kevan rubbed her shoulders and asked, "They're both asleep?""Yeah. I'll send Aster to school tomorrow. You take Wendy to the hospital," Larissa said. "What's wrong?" Kevan frowned. "Is there something wrong with Wendy's health?""No—" Larissa's voice was filled with helplessness and exhaustion. "To the hospital that Edmund's in. Wendy wants to meet him one more time and finish things with him.""You should stop her." Kevan disagreed with Wendy's actions. To continue tangling oneself with someone like Edmund was just a waste of one's time."I did. It was useless." Larissa was very tired too. "She felt that she had been lied to by Edmund too badly. If she doesn't go meet him, she won't get over this.

Upon seeing Wendy, Edmund's blank eyes brightened up immediately. He forced a pained but ugly smile onto his face. "Wendy! You came!" He was quite happy."Yeah." Wendy was just as professional as Larissa when it came to fake smiling.Edmund did not notice anything amiss. After he asked after her he anxiously moved into the main topic. "You said you wanted to drop the case before …""I went to the police station." Wendy held the hand that Edmund reached out as she forced down the feelings of disgust. "But the police said that I was not the one who made the case, so I can't be the one to drop it." Wendy acted appropriately sad, helpless, and hurt.Edmund froze before he asked, "You didn't find Larissa?""I won't find Larissa ever again!" Wendy gritted her teeth as she said angrily, "She and Kevan made you end up like this. Whenever I think of her name, I get disgusted! I have already decided to stop being friends with her!"Edmund was a little panicked. "But … If you don't find her

"Edmund, what's wrong?" Wendy looked super confused. "Don't you want to clear yourself of all charges?""I …" Edmund gritted his teeth and chose the path with fewer consequences. "I won't be in jail for too long. If you're willing to wait for me … I'll be out in a few years, and we can still be together."Wendy, I don't want you to take that risk. We can't win against Kevan. If you sue him, you will only give him the chance to attack us again."Wendy was silent as she "seriously" considered Edmund's words. Then, she agreed. "Alright, then." She rubbed her own stomach and said lovingly, "Baby, be a good baby, hmm? Let's wait for Daddy to come back together."Edmund's fear was dispelled. "After going back, just make up with Larissa," he advised her. "Once I'm in jail, she will be the only one who can take care of you. I hope you and the baby can be safe and healthy. I will have something to hope for while I'm in jail.""But Larissa and Kevan treated you so badly …" Wendy was still p

Larissa had just arrived at her workplace when she got Lewis' phone call."I'm back in Westonia. Tell all department heads that there's a meeting one hour later.""Why are you back so early?" Larissa found it odd. Lewis went to Egron on Monday morning and had only been there for less than two days."There's been changes." Lewis did not sound good. "I'll talk about it in detail when I'm back.""Oh, okay!" Larissa immediately tensed up and ended the call. She sent the meeting email to every single presidential office employee's email.Lewis arrived at the company exactly an hour later. He probably came over right after getting off the plane. He did not have time to change out of his casual coat, and thus he looked no longer as boring as he usually did. He actually looked pretty good.His long legs allowed him to cover more ground. Hayden was jogging behind him, and she looked a little all over the place.Such a contrast only highlighted Lewis' godly aura.All the female employees

There was a massive suitcase in Lewis' office. Lewis knocked on it proudly. "Wanna see?""It's our working hours." Larissa remembered the lessons taught to her by her cold superior at all times. "We cannot do anything unrelated to work.""I get to say whether or not something is related to work." Lewis couldn't care less about the fact that he was eating his own words. He simply put the suitcase down and got down on one knee.Larissa could not resist the temptation as she went closer to look.Lewis had brought back a hell of a lot of presents. So much that a whole suitcase got stuffed full with it. Clothes, bags, jewelry, cosmetics—there was everything, and they were all expensive luxury items."Is our company … really in a crisis?" Larissa stared at Lewis with suspicion. With the money he had spent … he did not look like he was going through a fucking crisis at all."It's cheaper to buy things from there. It's rare for me to go too," Lewis explained. He moved aside so that Laris

"Sure!" Larissa agreed, but she was already thinking of how she would sneak away when the time came to give Marilyn and Lewis the space they needed by then."Larissa, you're the best!" Marilyn hugged Larissa's arm and leaned heavily against her affectionately.…After work, Larissa was worried that it would be too obvious if she dragged a huge suitcase with her when she left. So, she purposely waited until everyone had left before she went to knock on Lewis' office door.He was still sitting at his table, staring coldly at his laptop."I came to get the stuff." Larissa pointed at the suitcase Lewis had put in the corner of the room.Lewis grunted as he finally looked away from the laptop screen and took off the glasses he was wearing. He rubbed his forehead tiredly."What's wrong?" Larissa turned to him immediately and went up to him. "Is it very difficult?""A little." Lewis sighed softly. "Moorewell has not only pilfered our clients, now they're trying to pilfer our people fr

Marilyn did not suspect anything, and she actually sighed sadly for Larissa and said, "You're working too hard!"Larissa smiled and mocked herself. "The company's not doing very well recently, so I've got to cling on to Mr. Logan Junior and make sure that I don't get fired by him."After a brief pause, she asked Marilyn, "What about you? You've left for so long, why did you come back?""Oh, I forgot something." Marilyn smiled dryly as she let Larissa enter the elevator. She pointed behind her and said, "Well … I'll go get my stuff."Larissa asked, "Do you need me to wait for you?""No, no, no!" Marilyn quickly refused. "You go on ahead. I have no idea where I put my stuff, so I might need to look for a while.""Okay, then." Although it was already past the peak hours for work dismissal, there were still people in the office building. Larissa could not let the elevator stop at the topmost floor for so long, so she dragged the suitcase in with her. "I'm leaving. See you tomorrow."
