Larissa could sense the way Kevan treated her differently. But she was not sure if the difference in treatment was because of her or because of Aster.After all, he knew from the beginning that Aster was his son. Maybe his actions of pleasing her were all because of giving Aster a complete family.But that picture—Larissa rolled out of bed and quickly stormed out of the door. She scared the two people watching a cartoon on the couch. They turned around to stare at her."Mommy, have you finished eating?" Aster asked first."Not yet." Larissa forced a smile out with great difficulty. "I'm looking for your daddy." As she spoke, she looked at Kevan. "Come to the study with me."Kevan gave the remote control to Aster. As he stood up, he put his hand on the kid's head. "Watch by yourself, then shower and go to sleep when it's time. Do you understand?"Aster nodded. "Got it!" He smiled slyly like a fox. His eyes were sparkling. "Don't mind me. Chat for as long as you want!"Larissa g
Larissa licked her lips in disappointment as she muttered, "Then how the hell did you even know me …"Her high school life was incredibly simple. In order to get into an important university and change her fate by escaping the Seymour family, she spent every single moment of her life studying.Any free time she had she was studying at home and revising her work. She never wasted time on anything else. In other words, Kevan could not have known her at all unless he was in the same school as her.Larissa's blank expression did not seem fake. Kevan's tense feelings relaxed again. He had been excited and happy then because he thought she finally remembered him. But in the end, she did not, and disappointment took over Kevan.He'd had her in his heart for so many years. He thought of her every day and night and never forgot about her. He thought that he was special to her at least.But now he realized that he was only a random nobody to her. He never mattered in her life."I didn'
It was not a problem if Aster saw Larissa's picture. But if Aster told Wendy about it—Larissa could imagine how Wendy would laugh at her and what face she would make."I'll take the pictures for you now, okay?" She gave in helplessly.Kevan stood there and watched her. "Sure."Larissa pressed her lips together and raised her phone. She pointed the front camera at herself and randomly snapped a few shots.Her phone was an old one from last year. The front camera was not really good, and it did not have any pretty filter functions. Combined with her randomness—none of the pictures could be used.Kevan stared at her phone's photo album, and his frown grew deeper."I don't mean to force you to take pictures." He returned Larissa's phone to her. "If you're not willing …""I'm willing!" Larissa interrupted him. "I'll retake the pictures until you're satisfied. Okay?"Kevan looked hesitant."I'll take the pictures in whatever way you want!" Larissa patted her chest in promise."Fi
Larissa's body froze. She turned around to look at Aster.Aster seemed rather angry as he stared at Larissa with disapproval.Larissa quickly let go of Kevan. She was about to explain when the kid said, "You guys are not hugging me!" He pouted. Larissa found his hurt look very funny.Kevan was the calmest out of all three of them. He waved to Aster and said, "Come here."Aster's eyes lit up at once, and he ran to Kevan.Kevan gave Larissa his laptop and bent down to hug Aster.Aster hugged Kevan and left a big, wet kiss on his cheek. "Daddy's the best!"Kevan glanced at Larissa, who had a complicated look on her face as she stood there. He purposely asked Aster, "Is Mommy not good?""Mommy is good too!" Aster always liked to flatter his mother. He naturally would not "disrespect" her now. He quickly reached out to Larissa after saying that, adding, "I want Mommy's hug too!"Larissa let her son drag her over. Aster's arms were hugging both Kevan and Larissa. It made the thr
Aster agreed. "Oh, okay."Kevan gave Larissa a weird smile. "If you need to work, you can use my laptop."Larissa sneered at him. "Thank you for that, but I don't. Flipping. Need it!"…The kid had seen Larissa and Kevan sleeping in the same bed. He now wanted to sleep with them together.Although Larissa's fever was gone, her cold was not gone. Worried that she would pass it to him, she persuaded Aster to not sleep with her. In the end, this whole thing ended with Kevan going over to accompany him to bed.Larissa was happy to have the whole bed to herself. She even childishly rolled around the bed a few times. But when she turned off the lights and listened to her own breathing, she felt that the bed was too empty. It made her feel a little lonely.When she realized that, she felt terrified. She hid herself under the blanket and curled up under it. She also hugged herself. But even with that, she was unable to stop herself from feeling lonely.She tossed and turned a lot tha
Larissa looked up to see an angry, dark-faced Gary. Behind him was Marilyn, who looked very serious too.When he saw Larissa standing outside, Gary stopped walking in surprise.Larissa hurriedly greeted him. "Mr. Logan Senior, Mr. Logan Junior." She bowed her head. She did everything she could to act like she was not familiar with these two men.Gary nodded and grunted once in response to Larissa. Then, he walked away without even looking at her to help maintain her act.Lewis also paused in front of Larissa. "Late with no reason. Your attendance bonus along with other bonuses for this month are deducted." He played the part of a cold, heartless superior, and he ordered Larissa, "Come to my office and explain the reason why you were late."His voice was not quiet, so all the other colleagues stuck at the door of the meeting room could hear him.Marilyn gave her a look of sympathy while the others sneered at her.Larissa bowed her head even more. She followed behind Lewis. The
Marilyn gave Larissa looks with her eyes. She was telling her to look at the company's internal communication software.Larissa had been busy trying to find people when she first arrived. Then, she was called into Lewis' office. Only now did she have the time to open up all the software on her laptop.The message icon in the bottom right corner of the laptop's screen kept flashing. Larissa clicked on it and saw Marilyn's message. "Judy has been fired by Mr. Logan Senior in person! Today's last-minute meeting was held because of Judy. Mr. Logan Senior was so angry! Thank goodness you did not come!"Judy was fired?Shocked, Larissa glanced over in the direction of Judy's seat, but there was a wall blocking her. So, she was not able to see if Judy was still there or not."What happened?" she asked Marilyn, who sent her a link.Larissa only found out that Blue Star Shipping had a little internal forum after she clicked on the link.The forum had all kinds of sections for diffe
Objectively speaking, Judy's actions could only prove that her personality in private was shit. Even if the video got posted online, the worst that could happen was that people would condemn her so much that she lost her dignity. It would not get so bad that she would lose her job.Alas, the bad thing about this was that people managed to find out exactly who she was.It was near impossible to find the true identity of a person based on just one video online. One needed advanced face recognition technology for that.For Judy's identity to be exposed in just a day was definitely because the video was spread everywhere. So much so that Judy's friends and acquaintances were able to tell that it was her.Still, Larissa thought the most important thing was that Judy had offended too many people. Thus, others would purposely drag her down and post all of her information online.The netizens wanted Judy to be punished. So, the most direct way was to pressure the company she worked at a
