Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo novel Chapter 492

Gradually, Larissa's colleagues recovered from their shock just now and whispered among themselves. "I never expected there would be such chaos within a prestigious family like the Rogers."

In fact, their curiosity was piqued when they heard Lana mention Larissa's name.

However, Larissa was their superior. No matter how curious they were, they didn't dare to inquire personally about her connection to the Rogers family.

When she returned to the hotel, it was almost time to pick Aster up from kindergarten.

With a heavy heart, Larissa barely could muster up a smile when she saw Aster at kindergarten.

Noticing her unusual state, Aster clung to Larissa's leg anxiously, asking over and over again, "Mommy, what's wrong?"

Larissa caressed his head and explained, "I'm feeling a little sad as one of Mommy's elderly relatives passed away."

Aster knew what she meant.

He immediately quietened down and held Larissa's hand tightly.

"Mommy, don't be sad. Those who have passed away will always be with you as stars in the sky," Aster comforted her, repeating the same words that she had said to him before.

Larissa couldn't help but smile at his solemn expression.

She pinched his nose playfully. "You're getting too smart for your own good!"

Larissa wasn't in the mood to cook dinner, so she decided to order takeout.

Aster became increasingly worried when he saw Larissa slumped listlessly on the couch, staring blankly at the television.

He sneaked back to his room and called Kevan. "Uncle Kevan, please come over quickly. Something's wrong with Mommy!"

Kevan was on his way to Pine Mansion after hearing about the commotion that the Seymour family had caused earlier in the afternoon.
