Sweet Subterfuge Chapter 795
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

Marilyn's previous embarrassment vanished as she smiled brightly. "Thank you, Mr. Logan Junior!" Her gratitude was real. Her joy was the most obvious that Larissa had seen in these few days.It turned out that people were all the same when bonuses were in front of them.…Their food arrived. Larissa and Lewis ate happily. Marilyn could not eat spicy things, so whenever she took a bite, she had to drink some water before swallowing it.Seeing that Marilyn was struggling to eat as she ate like she was eating poison, Larissa was a bit confused. "If you don't like Caldorian food, why did you suggest coming here?"Larissa never cared too much about food. Back then, she would just mess around with Wendy, ordering fast food takeout from nearby whenever they did not feel like cooking. Otherwise, they would just find a way to deal with it in the hotel.When Larissa went outside to eat in restaurants, she did it for the clients. The locations were all decided by her assistant. Larissa neve

"Why not?" Larissa thought Marilyn had overreacted. "Mr. Logan Junior is not a wolf or something. What's wrong with liking him?"Marilyn waved at Larissa to tell her to be quiet. "Don't let Mr. Logan Junior hear you say that!""What's wrong?" Larissa turned to look at the direction Lewis had left in. Once she was sure she could not see him, she said, "I thought our company doesn't prevent workplace relationships?"She knew this because the presidential office had one couple. Although it was not obvious, they did not hide themselves when they were being affectionate with each other.Although Lewis was strict, that was only on work. He could not prevent ladies from liking him."Shh!" Marilyn moved her chair closer to Larissa and leaned closer to her. She spoke in a low voice. "Our female employees know that all other men in the company are available except for Mr. Logan Junior.""Why?" Larissa only heard this for the first time."Mr. Logan Junior did not make any rules … But previ

"Can't I be curious?" Lewis reached out to grab his phone when he saw that Larissa refused to say it. "If you don't tell me, I'll call Marilyn right now—"Larissa hurriedly stole his phone from him and gave in helplessly. "I'll say it! Don't make things hard for Marilyn!"Lewis smirked victoriously and waited for Larissa's answer."The guy I was talking about …" Larissa sucked in a deep breath as she prepared for herself to be "killed" by Lewis. "Is you."Lewis' face showed that he knew it. Yet, he wasn't particularly unhappy. "Where did you get this conclusion from?" He asked her earnestly. "I don't remember ever being interested in guys in front of you.""But you never showed interest in women in front of me either!" Larissa fired back at him. "Look at you. You're almost forty, and you still don't have a girlfriend. How could people not overthink things then?"Lewis' face darkened. He defended himself. "Just because I don't have a girlfriend now doesn't mean I didn't use to hav

It was not strange to have a meal with a friend of the opposite gender, but Lewis' description of Wendy's reaction made Larissa suspicious.Panicked, uncomfortable. Wendy even deliberately avoided Larissa.No matter how it looked, Wendy did not seem to be just friends with that guy she was with.Larissa quickly texted Wendy via WhatsApp. "You got a situation going on?" She watched the words "typing …" appear under Wendy's name for a few minutes before it disappeared. No new message appeared in the chat.Well, it seemed that Wendy had decided to ignore her.Larissa calculated the time. Wendy must still be eating now, or she was having fun with her "boyfriend." Larissa held back from video-calling Wendy. She didn't want to disturb them. She closed WhatsApp.Seeing Larissa throw her phone back into her bag as well as hearing the happy snort she let out, Lewis looked at her and asked, "You're happy?""Not bad, I guess," Larissa said lightly. There was a hint of a smile on her face.

Larissa could not interfere with Kevan and Aster even if she wanted to. But someone else—she absolutely had to interfere with.…Larissa waited until 10:30 pm. She figured that Wendy would be back at her hotel by now, so she texted Wendy. "What's up?"This time, there was not even a "typing …" there. Wendy had ignored her directly.Larissa waited for ten minutes, and there was still no response, so she made a video call. However, it was not answered.She called Wendy five to six times before Wendy finally answered angrily. "Are you fucking stupid or what, Larissa Seymour?"Larissa rubbed her ears as she asked evilly, "What? Did I disturb you two?"Wendy roared, "Fuck off!"Larissa was smart enough to pull the phone away from her ear earlier, so she was able to prevent her ears from exploding."Go on. Tell me." Larissa changed her position on her bed. She sat against the headboard while leaning against a pillow. "What's the guy's name? How old is he, where is he from, and what'
Sweet Subterfuge Chapter 802
Within the context of love, the idea of "love at first sight" was incredibly romantic. It was also the most desired goal for most young men and women. However, from the standpoint of probability, this was the least probable thing to happen.The chances of such a thing happening were so low that Larissa never believed it could happen, and she was proven wrong today. But she was not angry. She was actually happy for Wendy."Oh, man! This is totally the plot of a teenage drama series!" Larissa exclaimed with excitement.Love at first sight and coincidental meetings were the standard plot for most teenage drama series. Wendy was beautiful enough to be the main female lead. But the guy …"Is he handsome?" Larissa was so excited that her voice was shaking."Um …" Wendy hesitated for a few seconds. There was some pride in her shyness."Not as good as your Mr. Rogers, but he's still good-looking. Speaking of—he does look a bit like Mr. Rogers. It's not just as delicate. And their auras a
