Chapter 348
“You agreed?” Kevan studied Larissa with narrowed eyes. He knew that she had been wanting to get divorced since the day they’d gotten married. Now that there was such a good opportunity before her, she had no reason to not hold on to it. The moment he thought of that. his heart began to make its way up to his throat, and he unconsciously slowed down his breathing.
Larissa fell a numb, tingling sensation from his stare, and she lumed away gully.
Kevan’s face darkened further as he sneered. “Happy now?”
Larissa’s hands, which were in her lap, clenched lightly together, and chills ran down her spine. She licked her dry lips before answering his first question, “I didn’t agree.”
Her answer seemed to be out of Kevan’s expectations. He was stunned for two seconds and his heart began to race.
“Why?” His lace remained laut as his smile became a jeer. “Didn’t you always want to divorce me?”
“That’s because I knew you wouldn’t agree, eps hit.” Larissa could only keep such words deep in her heart. She would never ever dare to say them out loud. She had originally hoped that Violet would pressure Kevan, but Violet was too understanding, which caused her plan to derail
Letting out a dry chuckle. Larissa said, “I was trying to help you and Ruby, but you refused to appreciate it.” Sensing Kevan’s cold gaze, she shuddered and looked down again.
“My mom and Lara are hoping that we’ll get divorced bet that they’re trying to sell me off to another rich sleazy as shole. The more they clamor for it, the more I refuse to let them have what they want.”
The reason she got married to Kevan was because she wanted to avoid the Seymours from forcing her into a marriage. He would not suspect her 7 she used this excuse, but he would be unhappy for sure.
Kevan moved his stare to his toes and he asked expressionlessly. “What did my mom say?”
“Your mom said that we should decide for ourselves, but she hopes that we don’t get divorced.”
Kevan did not expect his mother to be able to stomach this, considering her explosive temper.
“Also, your mom knows everything about me from before now, About me being a divorcee, and that my former husband kiled himsell, all that.” Larissa was very much thankful that the Seymours had not exposed her “great” light with her former mother-in-law on the Internet. But she guessed that Violet would absolutely check her background now after today, which meant that it would not be long before her past was completely exposed before Violet.
She did not know it Violet could still be as understanding as she was today after she found out about everything.
“Your mom and Lana sald at?” Kevan asked.
“Yeah.” Larissa nodded.
Kevan pressed his lips together thoughtfully. “I will help you explain to my mom. As for everything else, you don’t have to worry.” He rose up from the sofa and smoothed out the wrinkles in his shirt. He had just taken a step forward when a ball of fur rolled over to his loot.
“Meow” Mullin rubbed her head against his slipper while she kept calling out affectionately. Larissa stared at this scene and was somewhat perplexed.
She was the one who led Mullin every day, took care of her waste, and even played with her every day, but she had never ever tried to get 50 overly affectionate with her like this before. Was it that even cats now were charmed by one’s looks?
She stently decided to reduce the amount of lood that Mullin would get tonight
Kevan looked down, recalling what he promised Ruby yesterday when he saw Mullin. He gently used his loot to move the kitten away and warned Larissa. “Take care of your cat, or send it away.”
Larissa was shocked. His threat from last night stik haunted her. She quickly leaned down and brought Muttin into her lap. “I will definitely take good care of herl
