Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo novel Chapter 487

Shortly after Larissa returned to the hotel, she heard the news of Roland's passing.

With Roland's status and influence, every move that he made garnered considerable attention, even though he had already taken a backseat from his company's affairs.

Understandably, his sudden death dropped a bomb on the whole country.

Since last night, many important figures of the business world had rushed to Pine Mansion and caused extensive congestion in that area, drawing complaints from neighbors living nearby.

Similarly, various media outlets and government departments received numerous complaints over the phone regarding the slow-moving traffic.

Although the Winston Hotel was considered a rival to the Regal Dynasty Hotel, more than half of their management had jumped ship from the Regal Dynasty or other hotels and resorts under the Soaring Corporation. They still felt a sense of gratitude toward their former employer.

Even though most of them had never seen Roland in person during their employment, they expressed shock and sorrow upon hearing the awful news.

Larissa was no exception.

On top of that, her emotions were more complicated than most.

She had personally met Roland and had pleasant memories with him, despite the unfavorable outcome.

When she heard the news, tears welled up in her eyes, and her nose got stuffy. For a moment, her vision became a blur.

Larissa quickly suppressed her feelings.

Among other things, what she cared most about at the moment was Kevan's condition.

Although she hadn't had much interaction with Roland, she could clearly see that Kevan was his favorite among all his grandchildren.

They were particularly close.

Larissa had never personally experienced the death of a loved one, because she didn't have anyone she would consider a loved one in this world.

She couldn't imagine what Kevan was going through at the moment.

However, she didn't dare to disturb him and made a phone call to Dylan instead. "I heard that Old Mr. Rogers of Soaring Corporation passed away."

"Can't you address him as your grandfather? At the very least, you used to be his granddaughter-in-law. Why make things so awkward?" Dylan teased half-jokingly.
