Kevan's heart thumped violently in his chest. He took a step forward and embraced her. Burying his face in her shoulder, he said in a hoarse and muffled voice, "Lari." Kevan had so many things he wanted to say to her, but he was afraid that expressing his true emotions would scare her away. In the end, he half-threatened her jokingly. "You can never escape from me for the rest of your life." Larissa hadn't even considered running away. She hugged him back tightly. Before Larissa could tease him about it, she caught sight of Kevan's parents and Aster out of the corner of her eye. They were watching them eagerly through the window with expressions of interest on their faces. Startled, Larissa pushed Kevan away. In her haste, she bumped into his arm. Kevan took a sharp breath and a look of pain flashed across his face. Larissa didn't have time to reprimand the three of them for spying. She rushed to support Kevan. "What's wrong?" she asked, scanning his arm for any sig

Kevan's left arm was wrapped in a thin bandage. Due to his loose sweatshirt, no one could tell that he was injured. Larissa watched as he unwrapped the bandage. There was a wound approximately four inches long on his arm. Kevan had already treated and disinfected the wound with alcohol. It had scabbed over and stopped bleeding, so it didn't look terrifying. Still, Larissa's heart ached as she touched the area around Kevan's injury. She bit her lower lip to hold back the tears welling up in her eyes. Kevan only meant to evoke her sympathy, not to make her cry. "It's a minor cut. I'll be fine in a couple of days." Kevan removed his arm from her grasp and rewrapped the bandage. Larissa looked into his eyes and advised earnestly, "Please don't do this again in the future. If things can be resolved by calling the police, you don't need to handle it personally." It was fortunate that Maria was a weak woman and couldn't inflict much harm on him. What if Kevan were to encounter

If Blue Star Shipping could secure Thompson Medical as a client, the annual revenue for the entire year would be guaranteed. Thompson Medical's office building was located at the innermost part of the industrial park. It was a simple four-story building. By its exterior, no one would believe that it was the headquarters of the famous Thompson Medical. The interior of the office building was plain. There were no luxurious decorations, not even an elevator. Richard brought Lewis and Larissa to the fourth floor. It was where Mr. Ackley's office was located. "Mr. Ackley, Mr. Lewis and Ms. Larissa of Blue Star Shipping have arrived." Richard knocked on the door of one of the rooms. The office was not large, not even half as big as Lewis' office. There was a desk and a few cabinets for files. A man in his sixties sat behind the desk. There were wrinkles on his face and most of his hair had gone white, but he looked healthy and energetic. This man was the CEO of Thompson Med

"Sharon!" Brian called out. The person walking up the stairs looked up and flashed a smile at him. "Uncle Brian!" Larissa was stunned. Although there was a significant change in her appearance, it was none other than Sharon Davis who was standing below them at this moment! She stared at Sharon without shifting her gaze. Her intense stare quickly caught Sharon's attention. However, she seemed completely unsurprised by Larissa's presence here. Sharon quickened her steps and wrapped her arm around Larissa affectionately. "Lari! What are you doing here?" Larissa had only met Sharon a few times, so they weren't very close. Her sudden friendliness took Larissa by surprise and her body stiffened inexplicably. Sharon winked at Larissa and continued speaking, although Larissa couldn't understand a word. "I heard from Dylan that you and Kevan came back to Caldor together. I was actually planning to arrange a meeting with you. I never expected to run into you at Thompson Medical.

"Will Kevan be going back with you?" Sharon asked again. Larissa hadn't discussed this with Kevan, and he hadn't mentioned it to her either. "I'm not sure. He came back because there were some matters in the company to handle. He might have to wait until those are taken care of." Sharon couldn't help but curse, "What is he handling? He's already handed over all the company affairs to Dylan! Now Dylan sleeps at the company every day. I hardly get to see him once a week!" Larissa finally understood why Sharon was so resentful of Kevan. However, she remembered that Dylan and Sharon had a poor relationship the last time she returned to Caldor. Larissa wondered how their relationship had improved so dramatically in such a short time. "Well …" Larissa felt a little awkward. Whether stayed or left wasn't something she could decide. "How about I talk to Kevan later and ask him to stay in Caldor for a little longer?" she suggested to Sharon. Nonetheless, it might not have much effec

When they arrived at the hotel, Lewis finally asked the question on his mind all day. "Is Sharon Davis really your friend?" Since Brian wasn't familiar with Larissa, he could be fooled by their pretense. However, Lewis knew that Larissa's reaction wasn't right. It wasn't what one would expect from meeting an old friend. "Not really. Sharon is the wife of Kevan's friend. I've met her a few times. I never expected to meet her at Thompson Medical. I certainly didn't expect her to help me." Larissa didn't see the need to hide anything. Pursing his lips, Lewis furrowed his brows as he seemed lost in thought. Larissa was afraid that their act would be exposed with Brian present, so she hadn't expressed her gratitude properly to Sharon. She sent a WhatsApp message to Sharon, "Ms. Davis, thank you so much for your help today. I was wondering if you are free tomorrow for dinner. My colleague and I would like to thank you over a meal." Sharon replied quickly, "There's no need to than

With a little nudge from Lewis, Larissa realized the issue. "How did Moorewell Shipping get this information?" "That's the issue. Besides, you heard from Mr. Ackley. Moorewell Shipping's offer was slightly lower than ours," Lewis spoke in a cold tone as his pace quickened. A thought formed in Larissa's mind. "You mean, we have a mole in our company?" Corporate espionage was commonplace in the business world. Still, Larissa had never encountered it before, so she was shocked. Lewis nodded. "He or she should be easy to find." After all, not many people in the presidential office knew about the purpose of their trip. By questioning them one by one after they returned, they could find out the source of the leak. Seeing Larissa's solemn expression, Lewis stopped in his tracks and gave her a reassuring smile. "Don't worry too much about this. We already signed the contract, and we haven't suffered any losses. We can investigate this later. Aren't you meeting Sharon for dinner? Wh

The writing on the pages had faded considerably due to time. Regardless, Larissa could still recognize her own handwriting accurately. Larissa Seymour, Class A. This physics textbook belonged to her! A blurry memory rushed back to her mind. In her senior year of high school, she had indeed lost her physics textbook. She had looked everywhere for it, in her home, her classroom, even in the garden where she studied in the mornings. However, she couldn't find any trace of it. In the end, she had to save up her hard-earned money to get a new one from her homeroom teacher. She also had to stay up all night to rewrite the class notes in her new textbook. After nearly twenty years, she never expected to find her lost textbook here.The assistant entered the room again and asked, "Ms. Larissa, would you like something to drink?" Larissa shook her head and waved the physics textbook in her hand. "Does this book belong to Mr. Rogers?" The assistant stared at the book for a
