Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo novel Chapter 949

"I don't have much to do with it. It was just a coincidence that I met a friend at Thompson Medical. Turns out that she was Mr. Ackley's niece. She helped us secure the deal." Larissa didn't dare to take credit for herself.

Lewis shut down his computer and muttered, "Such coincidences don't just happen to anyone."

Larissa agreed, "That's true."

Gary sensed the underlying meaning behind Lewis' words. "Are you saying that all of this wasn't just a coincidence?"

Lewis didn't confirm nor deny it. He said vaguely, "Maybe there is another person helping us behind the scenes."

Gary glanced at Larissa, who looked puzzled. He kept his thoughts to himself.

"Alright, you both should go and rest now. Come home tomorrow night. The three of us will have a nice meal to celebrate." Gary stood up and waved them off.

Larissa was not in a rush to go home.

She had brought souvenirs from Bartham. She distributed them to her colleagues in the presidential office.

Although they were not familiar with Larissa, they accepted her gifts with gratitude.

Marilyn asked Larissa, "Larissa, is Bartham fun?"

"It's not bad." Larissa brought her some snacks from Bartham, as well as the coffee powder Marilyn had been craving for a long time.

"Coffee made from powder is nowhere near as good as coffee brewed in the coffee shop. When we have the chance, I'll take you to Bartham for a real taste of their coffee!"

"Sure!" Marilyn held the snacks in her hand. She was eager to make a cup of coffee and taste it right away.

"Since you even had the mood to buy us gifts, it seems like your trip to Bartham must have been successful!" she teased Larissa, poking her with her elbow.

"This has nothing to do with that, right?" Larissa hesitated to tell the truth.
