Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo novel Chapter 423

Larissa didn't have a warm welcome for Dylan when she opened the door.

She stood at the door, showing no intention of letting him in.

"What are you here for?" she asked.

Dylan replied honestly, "Aster invited me to come over."

Larissa turned around to look at the little traitor in her house.

When Aster heard Dylan's voice, he exclaimed with joy, "Uncle Dylan!"

He ran over to the door happily and squeezed Larissa aside.

Grabbing Dylan's hand warmly, he dragged him into the house.

Dylan gave Larissa a helpless glance, but he was also a little smug about Aster's fondness for him.

Larissa burned with anger, but when she saw how much Aster adored Dylan, she could not bear to disappoint him and suppressed the impulse to kick Dylan out.

Nonchalantly, Dylan plopped onto the sofa and placed Aster on his lap.

He tenderly caressed Aster's face and inspected the spots closely, murmuring, "What a pity! Why did you have to get chickenpox?"

Aster shook his head vigorously. "I'm totally not pitiful! Apart from being a little itchy, I don't feel sick at all! It's true!"

As he said that, Aster turned around and glanced at Larissa.

Larissa knew that he was trying to reassure her, that's why he said that deliberately.

Her heart warmed at Aster's concern and her cold attitude toward Dylan softened as well.

"Do you want anything to drink? We have juice and coffee," she asked Dylan.

The juice was for Aster, and she was going to have some coffee.

"Can I get a cup of hot water, please? My throat has been giving me some trouble these past two days."

With a frown, Dylan pressed his hand against his throat.

Although she found it troublesome, Larissa did not refuse his request. "Alright, then you'll have to wait a moment. I'll go and boil some water for you."

As soon as she entered the kitchen, Dylan took out his phone quickly and took photos of Aster's face, neck, and arms.

Because of how close up those photos were, the blisters from chickenpox looked particularly horrifying.
