Larissa and Aster took turns comforting Wendy until she stopped crying.Aster even suggested sleeping with Wendy that night to show that he still liked her. This nearly set Wendy off for the second time.After finally dealing with both Wendy and Aster, Larissa returned to her room.Kevan rubbed her shoulders and asked, "They're both asleep?""Yeah. I'll send Aster to school tomorrow. You take Wendy to the hospital," Larissa said. "What's wrong?" Kevan frowned. "Is there something wrong with Wendy's health?""No—" Larissa's voice was filled with helplessness and exhaustion. "To the hospital that Edmund's in. Wendy wants to meet him one more time and finish things with him.""You should stop her." Kevan disagreed with Wendy's actions. To continue tangling oneself with someone like Edmund was just a waste of one's time."I did. It was useless." Larissa was very tired too. "She felt that she had been lied to by Edmund too badly. If she doesn't go meet him, she won't get over this.

Upon seeing Wendy, Edmund's blank eyes brightened up immediately. He forced a pained but ugly smile onto his face. "Wendy! You came!" He was quite happy."Yeah." Wendy was just as professional as Larissa when it came to fake smiling.Edmund did not notice anything amiss. After he asked after her he anxiously moved into the main topic. "You said you wanted to drop the case before …""I went to the police station." Wendy held the hand that Edmund reached out as she forced down the feelings of disgust. "But the police said that I was not the one who made the case, so I can't be the one to drop it." Wendy acted appropriately sad, helpless, and hurt.Edmund froze before he asked, "You didn't find Larissa?""I won't find Larissa ever again!" Wendy gritted her teeth as she said angrily, "She and Kevan made you end up like this. Whenever I think of her name, I get disgusted! I have already decided to stop being friends with her!"Edmund was a little panicked. "But … If you don't find her

"Edmund, what's wrong?" Wendy looked super confused. "Don't you want to clear yourself of all charges?""I …" Edmund gritted his teeth and chose the path with fewer consequences. "I won't be in jail for too long. If you're willing to wait for me … I'll be out in a few years, and we can still be together."Wendy, I don't want you to take that risk. We can't win against Kevan. If you sue him, you will only give him the chance to attack us again."Wendy was silent as she "seriously" considered Edmund's words. Then, she agreed. "Alright, then." She rubbed her own stomach and said lovingly, "Baby, be a good baby, hmm? Let's wait for Daddy to come back together."Edmund's fear was dispelled. "After going back, just make up with Larissa," he advised her. "Once I'm in jail, she will be the only one who can take care of you. I hope you and the baby can be safe and healthy. I will have something to hope for while I'm in jail.""But Larissa and Kevan treated you so badly …" Wendy was still p

Larissa had just arrived at her workplace when she got Lewis' phone call."I'm back in Westonia. Tell all department heads that there's a meeting one hour later.""Why are you back so early?" Larissa found it odd. Lewis went to Egron on Monday morning and had only been there for less than two days."There's been changes." Lewis did not sound good. "I'll talk about it in detail when I'm back.""Oh, okay!" Larissa immediately tensed up and ended the call. She sent the meeting email to every single presidential office employee's email.Lewis arrived at the company exactly an hour later. He probably came over right after getting off the plane. He did not have time to change out of his casual coat, and thus he looked no longer as boring as he usually did. He actually looked pretty good.His long legs allowed him to cover more ground. Hayden was jogging behind him, and she looked a little all over the place.Such a contrast only highlighted Lewis' godly aura.All the female employees

There was a massive suitcase in Lewis' office. Lewis knocked on it proudly. "Wanna see?""It's our working hours." Larissa remembered the lessons taught to her by her cold superior at all times. "We cannot do anything unrelated to work.""I get to say whether or not something is related to work." Lewis couldn't care less about the fact that he was eating his own words. He simply put the suitcase down and got down on one knee.Larissa could not resist the temptation as she went closer to look.Lewis had brought back a hell of a lot of presents. So much that a whole suitcase got stuffed full with it. Clothes, bags, jewelry, cosmetics—there was everything, and they were all expensive luxury items."Is our company … really in a crisis?" Larissa stared at Lewis with suspicion. With the money he had spent … he did not look like he was going through a fucking crisis at all."It's cheaper to buy things from there. It's rare for me to go too," Lewis explained. He moved aside so that Laris

"Sure!" Larissa agreed, but she was already thinking of how she would sneak away when the time came to give Marilyn and Lewis the space they needed by then."Larissa, you're the best!" Marilyn hugged Larissa's arm and leaned heavily against her affectionately.…After work, Larissa was worried that it would be too obvious if she dragged a huge suitcase with her when she left. So, she purposely waited until everyone had left before she went to knock on Lewis' office door.He was still sitting at his table, staring coldly at his laptop."I came to get the stuff." Larissa pointed at the suitcase Lewis had put in the corner of the room.Lewis grunted as he finally looked away from the laptop screen and took off the glasses he was wearing. He rubbed his forehead tiredly."What's wrong?" Larissa turned to him immediately and went up to him. "Is it very difficult?""A little." Lewis sighed softly. "Moorewell has not only pilfered our clients, now they're trying to pilfer our people fr

Marilyn did not suspect anything, and she actually sighed sadly for Larissa and said, "You're working too hard!"Larissa smiled and mocked herself. "The company's not doing very well recently, so I've got to cling on to Mr. Logan Junior and make sure that I don't get fired by him."After a brief pause, she asked Marilyn, "What about you? You've left for so long, why did you come back?""Oh, I forgot something." Marilyn smiled dryly as she let Larissa enter the elevator. She pointed behind her and said, "Well … I'll go get my stuff."Larissa asked, "Do you need me to wait for you?""No, no, no!" Marilyn quickly refused. "You go on ahead. I have no idea where I put my stuff, so I might need to look for a while.""Okay, then." Although it was already past the peak hours for work dismissal, there were still people in the office building. Larissa could not let the elevator stop at the topmost floor for so long, so she dragged the suitcase in with her. "I'm leaving. See you tomorrow."

"I'm fucking blind as usual!" Wendy snapped angrily. "I shouldn't have shown you guys any politeness!"Aster stuck out his tongue and made an ugly face at her.Larissa pouted and gave up fighting with Wendy.…During dinner, Kevan got a call. Although he hid in the study, Larissa still saw the name on the screen—"Dad."Kevan came back only after more than ten minutes. Wendy and Aster had already finished eating and had gone to the home theater to play games. Larissa was the only one waiting for him at the dining table.Seeing that Kevan's expression was darker than before, Larissa asked him with concern, "Did something happen at home?""It's not a big deal." Kevan picked up his fork and spoon again. "It's my Aunt Maria—Edmund's mom. She went to my place to cause trouble today. She said that Edmund hasn't come back from Westonia after so long because I've locked him up."When Kevan said that, a mocking smile appeared on his face. "She understands her son quite well, but she just
