Chapter 954
Lewis had a suitcase he specifically used for business trips. There were a few sets of clothes inside and some daily necessities. He always put this suitcase in his car, so he could leave at any time for any last-minute business trips.Now, this suitcase was serving its purpose.Larissa arranged for Lewis to stay in another guest room. It was just next door to Wendy's. Wendy had met Lewis a few times. Although they were not "familiar" with each other, they were not complete strangers either.Wendy had nothing against Lewis coming. She also did not think that her life would be impacted as well. After all, Lewis and Larissa usually left early and came home late. They spent very little time with her at home."Have you guys had dinner?" Wendy asked Lewis and Larissa before Lewis entered the guest room to clear it up for himself.Lewis and Larissa had worked overtime and had just gotten home now. They had no time to eat at all."Is there anything else left to eat here?" Larissa had no

"Alright." Lewis picked up the spoon and ate some lasagna. "Wendy's cooking is not bad." He praised her sincerely. "Everything is well cooked but not mushy. It's better than the one you made last time."Last time during the steak dinner, Larissa had made some lasagna too. But she did not do it well and the dish turned mushy. A light poke with a fork destroyed it very easily.Lewis took another mouthful of lasagna before he remembered. "Help me thank her."Larissa was not happy due to Lewis' praise of her friend and criticism of her. She refused angrily. "Go tell her yourself! I'm not a fucking messenger you can just order around!"…Wendy woke late, so the caretaker came late every day too. Larissa could not wait for the caretaker to come and make breakfast, and The house had no food, so she could only go out and eat with Lewis.She went to the McRonald's nearby the company and ordered two takeaway set meals. After she went upstairs, she sent one to Lewis' office. When she came o

Judy and her lawyer arrived at the presidential office at 2:50 pm. They came rather ostentatiously, and they did not avoid anyone when they passed by the public office. Judy even clicked her high heels very, very, loudly.Compared to when she left Blue Star, Judy's complexion looked better. Her clothes were more expensive than before, and she did not look like someone who was feeling anxious and worried about the large amount of compensation money that she needed to pay for.When she passed by Larissa's workplace, Judy stopped and took off her sunglasses. She asked, "Is Mr. Logan Junior here?" Her voice was amazingly friendly.However, when Larissa looked up, she saw Judy rolling her eyes at her. No one else could see it except for Larissa herself. Larissa had not yet figured out what the hell was going on, but she replied calmly, "Yes, he's here.""Thank you." Judy put on her sunglasses again and led her lawyer with her into Lewis' office."Mr. Logan Junior." As Judy ha

Lewis was curious about how Judy planned to make up her story."Yes." Judy stared straight at him. She did not avoid his gaze. "Larissa is a spy planted by your side by Moorewell. Her purpose is to steal Blue Star's highly classified information. She came to me less than two days later, using my dark past from my youth to threaten me to work with her."Lewis frowned deeply at that. "But if I recall correctly, you were not friendly with Larissa before …""That's an act!" Judy hurriedly explained. "This way, when something happened to either me or her, no one would suspect the other!""Well, that makes sense then." Lewis pretended to be convinced."But we never expected that I would get fired so soon." Whenever Judy thought of this, she was enraged. "I don't even know who took a video of me and uploaded that video to the Internet!""Isn't this something planned by you guys?" Lewis asked.Judy's eye twitched as she had a moment of panic. "N- no!" She furiously denied it. "How could

"Judy's gone just like that?" Larissa asked Lewis. "I thought you said that you were going to bring me along for the meeting?""They didn't want you there," Lewis said."Why? What did they say?" Larissa was curious about what Lewis, Judy, and her lawyer had talked about."Judy wants to use the identity of Moorewell's spy in exchange for us not holding her accountable for violating her contract." Lewis pushed the settlement agreement from Judy's lawyer to Larissa."Spy? Who?" Larissa got excited. However, Lewis only stared at her with a mysterious smile."What's with that smile?" Larissa was confused. Lewis still said nothing, but his smile grew deeper."It can't be …" Larissa had a feeling, and when she thought about Judy's weird actions today … "She told you I was the spy?"Lewis clapped his hands together. "Congratulations! You got it right!""You believed her?" Larissa asked anxiously.Lewis gave her a deadpan expression. "So, in your heart, I'm an idiot?""Well, no." La

"What?" Marilyn covered her mouth in shock before asking, "Why? Did you make a mistake at work?""I don't fucking know." Larissa laughed coldly. "Mr. Logan Junior only said that I had to go. He didn't give me any damned reason.""No way. You and Mr. Logan Junior are so close in private. How could he just make you leave without reason?" Marilyn tugged on Larissa's hand. "Why don't you go and talk to Mr. Logan Junior properly and ask why he fired you, then ask him to give you another chance?""No need!" Larissa's attitude was firm. "I'm fired, and that's that! I don't fucking care for this shitty company anyway!" She jerked free of Marilyn's grasp and went back to her workplace to start packing.Marilyn followed and asked, "Do you want to leave now? You don't have any handover procedures?""Mr. Logan Junior wants me gone from the company by today." Larissa put all the little trinkets she had in her drawer into her backpack. As for the big stuff on the table, Larissa put the valuable

When Larissa video called Kevan at night, she mentioned how she was "fired".Kevan asked her, "Do you want to come back? I'm already wrapping things up here. If you have nothing else, you can check next week's flights."Seeing her hesitation, Kevan added, "I heard that Sharon introduced more clients to you. If it's to talk business, it's much better to do it in person." His temptation was obvious."I'll discuss it with my cousin and see if I can go back to Caldor next week. He wanted me to go back and establish a Caldorian Blue Star branch company anyway. It's just that the company's having some internal issues right now, so he can't send people with me." Larissa knew that she could not do anything by herself, but she could go back and analyze things, like pinning down the office address and taking care of the necessary hardware first."Alright." Kevan smiled softly at her. "I'll wait for you to come back."Larissa's face turned red immediately. "Is Aster okay?" She changed the su

"What do we do now? Wait for him to leave or call the police?" Wendy sat on the floor like Larissa, her back against the wall where the door was.She paid attention to all and any sounds from the outside."Let's wait first." Larissa had some considerations. Their apartment building's security was stellar. Normally, non-residents could never get in. Larissa was afraid that Kevan might have come back—he had done this sort of thing before anyway, secretly coming to Westonia without telling her.But she did not dare to just go out as well. After all, there were so many dangers hidden around her, so she could not let down her guard.The heavy footsteps grew closer and closer, and Larissa's heart began to race faster. When the footsteps sounded outside her room door, Larissa's heart was almost going to burst out of her chest. She held her breath and typed to Wendy to tell her not to talk. "That guy's right outside my door, I think."Wendy's expression on her phone screen w
