Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo novel Chapter 111

Chapter 111 

After Larissa regained her composure, she demanded angrily. “Who told you to use money to appease them? 

Those greedy snakes from the Hardy family were insallable. After taking the one million dollars, they wouldn’t just stop there. On the other hand, they would think of more ways to squeeze more money from her. Even if she wanted to get rid of them, she wouldn’t be able to. 

“How dare you show me attitude when I tried to solve this issue for you? Yvetle sald Incredulously. “Larissa, don’t you know how to be grateful?” 

“You’re not helping me solve it; you’re just creating more trouble for me,” Larissa relorted. 

Besides, Yvette did this out of her own interests. 

The Hardy family was trying to pin Travis‘ death on Larissa. If they went to the media again, Larissa wasn’t the one who would suffer the most but Yvetle herself. 

In the first place, the Seymour family wasn’t too fond of Yvette either. Just thinking of their mockery and judgemental looks was enough to rile Yvette up. 

“After all these years, you haven’t learned anything useful apart from becoming more adept at talking back, huh?” Yvelle’s voice grew louder. “As your mother. I need to teach you a lesson today! You’d better remember to respect your elders!” 

She grabbed Larissa’s collar and pulled her up from the chair. 

Using her pointed eather heels. Yvette kicked her behind the knees. 

Tears spilled from her eyes as Larissa winced in pain. 

She quickly grabbed the edge of the desk to prevent herself from falling to her knees. 

Yvette often used this move to subdue her in the past. 

Whenever Larissa didn’t obey Yvette’s wishes, she would make Larissa kneel down before her. Then, she would abuse her physically or 

beat her up with a wooden stick, 

One time, she even broke one of Larissa’s ribs. It took three months of staying in the hospital to recover, which resulted in Larissa missing her high school entrance examination and having to repeat a year. 

“Get down on your knees! Yvette demanded. 

Still standes 

Seeing that Larissa was s 

standing on her feet. Yvelte kicked her on the knees again. 

Larissa’s knees buckled under her. 

At the critical moment. Larissa reached out and grabbed Yvette’s clothes. 

Both of them tumbled onto the ground in a heap, 

Before her body hit the ground, Larissa rolled to one side and landed on top of Yvelte. 

Taken by surprise, Yvette gave an ear–splitting screech of pain. 

Seizing the opportunity, Larissa quickly got up from the ground and ran out of the office. 

She made several turns to make sure Yvette couldn’t catch up to her. Gasping for breath, she leaned against the wall to rest. 

In that instant, Larissa’s heart was filled with fear, but also a sense of relief. 

This was the second time in her life that she had made a stand against Yvelle. Furthermore, she protected hersell from Yvelle’s physical 

abuse for the first time. 

It wasn’t as difficult as she had imagined. 

Larissa didn’t dare return to her office, nor did she dare go downstairs. 

She sat in the stairwell until the end of the day before slipping away through the hotel’s back door.
