Sweet Subterfuge Chapter 692
The man in black angrily whacked at the car with his baseball bat. The whole basement parking lot only had the sounds of the car getting smashed.Larissa was curled up in the space between the two front seats. She covered her ears with her hands. Her body rocked along with the car."Why aren't you getting out?" the man in black roared angrily.The four windows had already been broken by him, and the car seats were littered with sharp glass. Larissa could barely just put her feet down at the place where she was hiding."You really want to die?"The baseball bat reached in from the driver-side window and began smashing the steering wheel and the dashboard.Larissa had no weapons, so she could not fight back. She could only hide here and there, and drag out time and wait for someone to save her."If you come out on your own, I promise I won't hurt you!" Seeing that doing things the hard way would not work, the man's attitude softened just a little. "Our goal is not to hurt you! You
Sweet Subterfuge Chapter 693
The man in black hurriedly avoided the glass pieces. His hand that was holding onto Larissa's wrist also began to loosen.The cap and mask helped him block off most of the glass pieces, and he was not hurt at all. However, Larissa's soft palm was bleeding from numerous new cuts.Her resistance pissed off the man in black fully. He whipped out a pocket knife from his pocket, and the blade of the knife gleamed in the dimly lit environment."Since you wanna die, I'll make sure you do then!"He began to stab his knife madly into the car.Larissa held her bag in front of her as she began to change positions based on his movements. Her energy was completely gone. She was only following her survival instincts to fight back.After who knew how long, hurried footsteps could be heard in the large parking lot.Both man and woman looked over at the source of the noise. A tall figure was rushing over here.Larissa recognized him at once. It was Kevan!But her joy had not lasted two seconds
Sweet Subterfuge Chapter 694
Kevan did not move. He seemed not to have heard Larissa's words, and he did not even bother to look at her. He stared at the man in black rushing at him. The moment the man in black reached out, Kevan swiftly grabbed the man's wrist.The man screamed in pain as the knife in his hand fell to the floor.Kevan moved his foot and kicked the knife under the car parked nearby.The man in black watched as the knife vanished under the car. Then, his eyes were filled with fear and hopelessness."You …" He just started to speak when his feet were suddenly off the floor. He had no time to react as his world turned wildly about. Then, his back slammed heavily onto the floor, and he felt like his spine was going to break. The man in black moaned in pain as tears spilled down his cheeks.Kevan stood next to him before dropping one foot onto the man's chest while he gazed at him. "Who sent you?" he asked coldly.The man refused to speak. Kevan pressed down harder with his foot, and the man scre

When Kevan and the police were talking, Lewis opened the car door and let Larissa out."Are you alright?" Lewis pulled on Larissa's arm and checked her over. Her face and neck were uninjured, but her hand—Lewis hissed. "We'll go to the hospital right now!"Hearing the word "hospital," Kevan tensed up as he came over to ask hoarsely, "What's wrong?"Lewis forced Larissa to open up her palm. The scary cuts on her palm were exposed before their very eyes."It's not too serious …" Larissa smiled timidly, and she tried to take her hand back from Lewis. But she failed, of course.Kevan's gaze stayed on her palm for a very long time.Just as Larissa said, the cuts were not too serious. The bleeding had stopped long ago. It just looked hideous, that was all. But the fear and self-blame in Kevan's heart was still there."I'm sorry," he mumbled in a low voice.Larissa watched him in confusion. "Why are you apologizing?"She heard everything Ronan said. The one who instructed him to do
Sweet Subterfuge Chapter 696
Lewis' car had been completely destroyed, so it naturally could not be driven.Kevan sent them to the closest hospital based on Lewis' request.Larissa resisted the whole way, saying that she was not bleeding anymore. "It doesn't hurt either. It'll heal in two days. We will be late for our flight."…The men in the car ignored her words.There were many patients in the hospital waiting for their turn. Kevan wanted to use his position to jump a few numbers, but Larissa stopped him. "It's not like we're in a rush right now."Her eyes showed annoyance, and her voice was very unhappy.Her annoyed look was cute to Kevan. His eyes were filled with gentleness as his words carried a hint of his smile. "Don't be mad." He patted her head. "Once your injuries are taken care of, I'll send you to the airport. You will be able to leave today."His attitude made Larissa's unhappiness disappear quickly. She looked down to hide the redness on her face, and she replied coldly, "'Kay then."They
Sweet Subterfuge Chapter 697
Aster was fine, but when Larissa thought of having to go back and face her old pa with super keen eyesight, she felt afraid. "How about staying here for a few more days?""No!"Both men said together at the same time, which startled Larissa.Compared to the dangers in Caldor, Gary's "warnings" were nothing."We must leave today!" Lewis said.Kevan, on the other hand, wordlessly drove towards the airport.…Lewis rebooked the flight tickets and changed them to the next flight. When they reached the airport, they were just in time for it.After they got their boarding passes, it was almost time. Larissa did not even have time to officially say goodbye to Kevan before Lewis dragged her over to customs.Kevan watched the two jog away, and he forced down his feelings of yearning. He only turned around after they vanished and pulled out his phone to call Dylan. "You free? Come to the police station with me."…Inside the police station, Ronan had been temporarily imprisoned in the
Sweet Subterfuge Chapter 698
Forty minutes later, Dashiell Montgomery, the police officer in charge of this case, brought in a middle-aged woman in her forties.The woman was dressed rather plainly, and her eyes were red from crying. The moment she saw Ronan, her tears began to fall again."Why the hell did you destroy someone's car?!" Mr. Montgomery had already explained things to her before they came in—Of course, she was told that Ronan had smashed the car to steal things. "We have good jobs with okay salaries. We aren't poor enough to need to steal things to live, do we?"Faced with his wife's questioning, Ronan looked down guiltily. "I …" He wanted to say something but just sighed in the end. "Did you bring the thing I told you to?" He changed the subject.The woman wiped her eyes and drew out a USB drive from her down jacket. "What is this thing that you need me to send it all the way from home?" When she spoke, her voice still showed her anger toward her husband."Never mind that!" Ronan snapped with i
Sweet Subterfuge Chapter 699
Kevan went out to pass a USB drive to Dashiell.Ronan turned off the surveillance cameras in the underground parking lot of Winston Hotel. The black boxes, which were installed in some of the cars, caught his actions.Kevan asked someone to compile the footage into that USB drive."After I watched the footage, I found out that it isn't as simple as auto burglary," he told Dashiell.Dashiell took the USB drive with solemnity. "I will get to the bottom of it.""Thank you, Mr. Montgomery." Kevan gave him a smile.When Kevan got back into the car, Dylan asked, "Aren't you afraid of alerting the other party?"The last thing Kevan wished for was to alert the mastermind behind Ronan. Otherwise, he wouldn't have put Ronan on a light charge.Once Kevan gave the game away, the other party would put on their guards. When that happened, it would be difficult to find out who the mastermind was."Even if that happens, I won't let him get away that easily." An ominous glint flashed a
