Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo novel Chapter 821

Thinking of that, Larissa felt a little regretful for what she did. She was impulsive in setting them up. So, she didn't consider whether it was the right time to do it.

"To express my apology, how about I invite you to my place for dinner tonight? We will be having stew."

The mark on Marilyn's cheek had faded without a trace because of the ointment she got from the infirmary. It was Larissa's chance to turn the situation around.

"Stew?" Marilyn had not tried Larissa's cooking before. Recalling her previous experience with Caldorian cuisine, she felt apprehensive. "Is it spicy?"

"There are spicy and non-spicy options. You can go for the non-spicy one," Larissa replied.

Marilyn agreed immediately, "Okay, I'll be there."

Since she had a ride, Larissa asked Kevan to not pick her up. She did not mention to Marilyn that Lewis would also be coming. After work, Larissa walked with Marilyn, leaving Lewis behind.

Both cars met up in front of Larissa's apartment building. As Larissa and Marilyn got off, a white BMW pulled into a parking spot in front of them.

Marilyn had ridden in Lewis' car yesterday, so she recognized his license plate immediately.

"Isn't that …" Marilyn widened her eyes in surprise as Lewis got out and closed his car door. "Mr. Logan Junior," she finished her sentence in a whisper.

Seemingly uncomfortable, she hid behind Larissa and lowered her head to avoid eye contact with Lewis.

Lewis locked his car. When he turned around, he noticed the two of them by the roadside. When his gaze fell on Marilyn, he was stunned but soon recovered.

"Why didn't you go up?" he asked Larissa, who replied, "It's because we ran into you here!"

Larissa dragged Marilyn's arm and pushed her forward. She put on an embarrassed chuckle and said, "I forgot to mention, I invited Mr. Logan Junior as well. I hope you don't mind?"
