Chapter 174


    Larissay helplessly on the hospital bed. She had received visits from both Dn and the police who


    hade to get her lement. The police informed her that Eliot the middle-aged man who rented her


    house, had been arrested and would likely be imprisoned for three to five years before being released.


    Elliot’s wife hac hastily moved out of the house overnight-presumably afraid of the lega. consequences,


    and her whereabouts remained


    unknown.


    In other words, after all the trouble Larissa went through, she finally had her house back, however, she


    was not entirely sat sted with this


    oue.


    Dn had helped her investigate Elliot’s transactions, which proved that he had not led in regard to


    saying he had not received the refunds for the rent from Andrew, Sn, Lanssa entrusted Dn to


    continue assisting her in suing Janine firmly stating that she would not


    ept a settlement.


    On the other hand, the real estate agent had contacled her and informed her of an interested buyer for


    her house who wanted to purchase it along with the lumiture. They wanted to know if she had any


    intention to sell This was exactly what Larissa had hoped for but she found the circumstances odd and


    asked. “The locks on the front door have been changed. How did you show them the house?”


    “Well..’ The real estate agent stammered. “That client wanted to buy a house in your neighborhood. He


    was in a hurry. Se, I showed him photos of the house at first, but he was on board to buy immediately


    after seeing the pictures. He was exceptionally enthusiastic.”


    The exnation seemed reasonable, but it still didn’t dispel Larissa’s doubts. It made no sense for


    someone to buy the house without actually seeing the property even if they were in a hurry, Concerned


    that Larissa might not agree, the real estate agent added. “As for the price. I quoted him 3,300 dors


    per square foot, and he agreed. Moreover, he offered to pay the full amount upfront.”


    The current average price in that area was 3,200 drs per square foot, which had increased by a few


    thousand dors since she bought the house. She was undoubtedly tempted by the offer, and she


    wanted to sign the contract mmediately and transfer the property to them. However, her conscience did


    not allow it


    “Ask if they can wait a few more days. I’m currently tied up with something, but I’ll change the locks in a


    couple of days. Then you can show him the house. We’ll sign the contract if he’s still interested.”


    The real estate agent wasn’t entirely put off by the idea.


    “Alright.”


    Within two minutes, he called Larissa back. “The client said it’s line. They’lle ording to your


    schedule.”


    Just as Larissa put down her phone, Kevan handed her a peeled apple.


    The apple was peeled neatly, there were meticulous knile markings on the surface, and even the


    peeled skin remained in one long.


    connected strip.


    “Thank you.” Larissa took a small bite, sweetness Instantly bursting in her mouth.


    Kevan cleaned the fruit knide and his hands, carefully wiping away the remaining water dros


    with a tissue.


    Larissa asked as she enjoyed the apple, “Is it fine for you to not go to thepany?”


    Kevan had been in her room since early morning until now, not leaving except for once to buy breakfast


    around eight. Although she assured him that she would be fine alone, with nurses taking care of her, he


    still refused to leave.


    “It’s fine.” Kevan opened the bag that Dn had brought him and took out hisptop.


    Larissa thought he was going to start working, so she tried to chew softer. However, she didn’t expect


    him to look up and ask her, “Is there any move you want to watch?”


    Although she resided in one of the VIP rooms in the hospital, they had no ess to any streaming


    tform. The hospital provided Umited channels, ying only a lew programs that she wasn’t


    interested in.


    Kevan’s suggestion was very timely. Larissa mentioned the name of a movie, and Kevan found it and


    handed theptop to her.


    “You can watch for a while. I’ll go downstairs to buy lunch.”

    Kevan answered without hesitation, The delivery le es are too expensive.”
