Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo novel Chapter 512

When Larissa went to pick Aster up in the afternoon, she noticed that the other parents, especially the mothers, were looking at her with a different expression from before.

Just as she was feeling puzzled about it, a parent who had chatted with her a few times earlier while waiting to pick up their children deliberately came up to Larissa.

Raising her eyebrows, she said in a teasing manner, "Your husband is really handsome! No wonder you seemed so secretive about him and wouldn't let him show up at the kindergarten!"

Taken aback, Larissa froze for a moment before realizing that the "husband" she was referring to was probably Kevan.

"Are you still trying to feign ignorance?" The other parent nudged Larissa with her elbow and gave her a reproachful look. "I heard it myself, your son called him 'Daddy' this morning!"

Aster …

Larissa felt both angry and yet powerless at the same time.

She had no energy left to argue, so Larissa simply gave her a faint smile and brushed her off.

After waiting for a while, the classroom door opened and the children swarmed out.

Aster threw himself into Larissa's arms, his face beaming brighter than usual.

"Mommy!" He greeted her with a loud and cheerful voice.

However, Larissa was unable to force a smile.

She wasn't sure whether his unusual behavior today was related to Kevan, but she had a feeling that it was highly probable.

Some girls approached Aster timidly and asked, "Aster, will your dad come to the sports day tomorrow?"

The smile on Aster's face faded, and a troubled expression appeared instead.

"I'm not sure. It depends on whether he has time off tomorrow."

The girls dispersed, seemingly disappointed.

Meanwhile, Larissa overheard the crux of the conversation. "What sports day?"

"Fun Family Sports Day. Ms. Gilmore said that she would notify the parents in the WhatsApp group later," Aster answered.
