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
Larissa held the door to let Gary and Lewis in. But Lewis held the other side of the door as he gestured gentlemanly at Larissa and said, "Ladies first."Larissa was wondering if she should be polite with him when Marilyn pulled her into the elevator.Marilyn was smiling as she kept thanking Lewis. "Thank you, Mr. Logan Junior!"All four of them stood in the elevator. Most company employees had already left, so the elevator did not stop and went down quickly.Lewis pretended to ask casually, "Where are you going to eat?"Realizing that he was talking to them, Marilyn's eyes widened as she said shakily, "We're going to a famous Caldorian restaurant nearby."Aldovia's Caldorian restaurants were mostly changed to fit the taste of the locals, so it was not original. However, the restaurant near their company maintained "Caldorian originality." Hence, it attracted a lot of Caldorians who were working or studying abroad in Westonia. It became a trendy restaurant.Larissa had already
Although Lewis sounded like he was just asking, it also sounded like he was trying to place blame on someone.Marilyn was Gary's secretary. Although she did the typical jobs of a secretary, she was still closer to Gary than the others in the presidential office.Gary was focused on his work. He also held high standards for his employees. He did not care too much about a person's character, but he could not tolerate people lording over others in the company.In situations like these, Gary's secretary would have a very important role—she had to report to him about the most unimportant things in the company on time. They might be inconsequential, but they were definitely things that needed to be dealt with.Marilyn seemed to realize her mistake as well. She looked down guiltily and gripped her drink with both hands."I heard some of it." She admitted to Lewis. "It's my fault for not reporting it to Mr. Logan Senior.""But you made up for it, didn't you?" Lewis gazed at her. His eyes
