Larissa read those documents until 2 am. When she went back to her room, she purposely went to the guest room as she wanted to check on Wendy.Carefully pushing open the door, Larissa saw darkness and no light. The person lying on the bed heard the noise though, and she shouted, "Who is it?"Larissa screamed in fearful shock. After she calmed down, she put a hand to her wildly beating chest and turned on the lights.Wendy sat on the bed, her hair completely messed up. She looked very energetic and not sleepy at all. They stared at each other for a while before Larissa asked, "Why aren't you sleeping yet? It's so late.""I should be asking you that." Wendy looked annoyed. "It's already so late, and you still come to other people's rooms secretly. Who are you trying to scare?""I just finished reading the documents Lewis left for me," Larissa said. "I just happened to pass by your room, so I decided to come take a look.""Tsk!" Wendy rolled her eyes at Larissa. "Don't think I don't

"Answer the phone, let's talk about this!""What's going on?""Answer the phone!"…Larissa scrolled upward. It took her at least one minute before she finally reached the message that Wendy sent, "We're finished." The timestamp was 9:06 am.Wendy saw that sentence too."I left the hotel and went home, then I texted him that. Then I ignored him. Tell me how fucking dumb he is? Doesn't he know what he has done? Does he need people to, like, fucking spell it out for him without leaving him any dignity?" Wendy was super pissed as she finally started pouring out the words she wanted to say."We had already agreed to just be friends with benefits. If someone decided to stop, the other would not harass the person who called to stop things. But in the end? Seriously, I'm telling you, Larissa, men are fucking liars!"He was the one who said he liked me. He was the one who said he wanted to be with me. In the end, he couldn't even fucking control himself and sleep with someone else anyw
Sweet Subterfuge Chapter 854
On Sunday morning, Lewis came over early and gave Wendy two tickets for a big Tinseltown sci-fi movie that had just hit the cinemas."If you're feeling bored, you can take Aster to the movies."This movie was quite popular recently. During weekends, the theaters for that movie were always packed. Wendy had wanted to watch the movie with someone before, but she was unable to get tickets."Fantastic!" She happily agreed and leaned down to hug Aster and give him a kiss. "Come have fun with Godma later! I'll take you to eat the best food there is!"Although Larissa was worried about Wendy's health, she also hoped that her friend could go out and do something to distract herself.While Aster was looking for his bag in his room, Larissa quickly grabbed her son and instructed him to take note of several things."Godma's not feeling very good. Be a good boy when going out with her, walk properly, and don't run. Don't jump on Godma, and watch over her. Don't let her eat random things. She
Sweet Subterfuge Chapter 855
Lewis was a workaholic. Larissa was the same. They did not put down their work even when lunchtime rolled around. They simply ate instant noodles while they worked.Larissa's phone suddenly rang. When she saw that it was Aster, Larissa panicked and answered the call at once."Mommy—" Aster was crying as he called out to her.Larissa's heart began to pound. She felt more worried than ever. "What's wrong?" Her voice was trembling."Godma's missing!" Aster sobbed as he tried to say everything clearly.Larissa walked out of the study at once. Seeing that something was wrong, Lewis followed too."Don't cry." Larissa comforted him. "Tell Mommy properly what happened."Aster took several deep breaths to calm down."Godma and I were eating, and then she said she wanted to go to the toilet and would come back. She told me to wait for her at my seat."Aster had already texted Larissa about it before they ate. He even snapped a picture of the restaurant."And?" Larissa had no time to

Lewis arrived at the restaurant before someone called the police. After he paid, he picked Aster up and pulled Larissa out of the place.Now that the situation was under control, the people in the restaurant kept looking at them though, and their quiet discussions kept going.Aster's emotions calmed down slowly after they were in the car. His wailing changed into sniffling and hiccuping. He held Larissa's hand and refused to let it go.Lewis did not rush to start the car. He took some tissues and gave them to Larissa to clean herself and Aster up. They had cried so hard that their eyes were red. Their faces were wet with tears and it actually looked kind of scary."Try calling Wendy," Lewis said to Larissa, who dug for her phone while hugging Aster.Wendy's phone remained unanswered like yesterday. But this time, she had her phone with her, so it was impossible for her to not have heard the ringtone."Why don't we call the police?" The ringing in the phone made Larissa's fear com

Larissa did not dare to think how she was going to tell Wendy's parents in Caldor if anything had really happened to Wendy.…After an hour had almost passed, Lewis' phone call came. It was rather late. Larissa quickly answered and asked desperately, "Did you find her?""Not yet," Lewis said.What little hope that had appeared died immediately. Larissa's shoulders slumped and she seemed to have lost her soul. Her voice was also dull. "Oh …""I looked at the surveillance footage in the mall. After Wendy left the restaurant, a man followed her to the toilet. When she came out, the man was with her. They must know each other. I've taken a picture and I'll send it to you now." The moment Lewis said that, Larissa's WhatsApp got a notification.Larissa tapped into Lewis' picture. He had snapped the picture from the surveillance camera screens. There was a male and female couple in the picture. The woman was Wendy, as for the man …Although there was only a blurry side profile, Larissa

Larissa kept trembling. She could not be bothered to think where Edmund had found out that Wendy was pregnant. She dug her nails hard into her flesh, using the pain to force herself to be calm."You …" She gritted her teeth, her throat tight. "What do you want to do exactly?""I want to meet up with you," Edmund said.Larissa gripped her phone very tightly as she asked him, "If I meet with you, will you let go of Wendy?""Of course." Edmund agreed very readily. "But—" His dragging out of the message caused Larissa to hold her breath. "You can only come alone." Edmund's voice became cold. "If I found out that you've called the police, or that someone's following you secretly …"Edmund laughed evilly. "You don't want to know what I'll do to Wendy.""Fine!" Larissa could not be bothered to think. The only thing in her head right now was to save Wendy from Edmund. Even if she had to lose her life for this, she did not care. After all, this happened because of Larissa herself."I'll

Edmund carefully showed only half his face. He kept looking behind Larissa. Once he was certain there was no one else, he unchained the door and opened the door fully."Get in," he said, but Larissa did not move."Where's Wendy?" she asked. "Tell Wendy to come out, and I'll go in.""Wendy's not here," Edmund said.Larissa immediately backed up to be out of Edmund's range. "Since you don't keep your promises …" She turned around to prepare to leave, but the doors on the right and left of Edmund's room opened to let out several men in black suits. They surrounded her.Larissa only realized that she had fallen into Edmund's trap. The men caught Larissa and tied her up. They locked her in Edmund's room.The small room was messy as hell, and there was a stinky smell in it.Seeing Larissa's frown, Edmund let out a creepy ass smile. "Relax, we won't stay here for long. Just bear with it a little longer."He leaned down to pinch Larissa's chin with two fingers. That face that looked li
