    Larissa quickly forced a sweet smile and walked towards her, greeting, “Hi Mom Viclet smiled from ear


    to ear as she held Larissa’s hand and said loudly, “Hey Larissa squeezed onto the couch beside her as


    Violet stared at her intently. Then, she asked in a caring lone.” Kevan said you’re sick and were at the


    hospital this moming. Are you feeling better? Larissa nodded and said, “I’m feeling a ct better. Thanks


    for asking. Mom.”


    Violet pretended to re at her angrily and seld, “What are you talking about? We’re family. Isn’t it


    normal for me to a ss after you?” Larissa was sturned for a moment, at a loss for words. After all, her


    own mother had never done any of these “normal” things.


    Judging from where she was seated, anotherdy who should be Cody and Edmund’s mother said.


    “Violet, your wish has finalye true! You wished for a daughter-inw for so many years, and Kevan


    finally brought her home today!”


    “Isn’t that right!” Violet said joyfully. Her gaze never left Larissa. “Lari, are you hungry? II you are. I ask


    the kitchen ser vants to serve dinner at once” Larissa felt ttered by Violet’s enthusiasm. She nced


    at everyone else, who remained motionless, and batted her hands nervously. ‘No, no, I’m not!”


    Anthony, who was sitting on the other side of Violet, said decisively. “Let’s eat. Everyone’s been


    waiting.” Everyone else got to their feet the moment he stood up. Violet pulled Larissa to the cining hall


    while introducing themily to her non-stop. “This is Kevan’s second uncle, this is his aunty, and this is


    his third uncle When she reached Ruby, Violet said, ‘This is Cody’s wife, Ruby.” Her expression was


    normal so Larissa thought she most probably knew nothing about Kewan and Ruby’s history.


    Ruby stopped waking when she heard her name and smiled at Violet. She came over to them and held


    Violet other arm while saying coquettishly, “Larissa and I already met at Grandpa’s house. haven’t we.


    Larissa? She winked cheekily, and Larissa smirked, ying along with Ruby. “Yup.”


    The dining hall was huge, It was evenrger than the living room of a typical house. Perhaps it was


    more convenient for reunion meals, the dining table was long and rectangr. There were nearly


    twenty chairs along its sides. The threemilies heads sat at the head of the table, followed by three


    other women from the Rogers family, then the kids.


    Larissa’s seat was between Kevan and his mother’s, while Ruby’s was coincidentally on the other side


    of Kevan’s. She saw it clearly when Ruby pulled away the chair beside Kevan the moment he sat


    down. Her cunning couldn’t escape Larissa’s eyes. However, no one else


    seemed to have noticed.


    it was Larissa’s first time meeting the family, and she was the new daughter-inw, so she became the


    center of everybody’s attention. They bombarded her with questions.


    “Where are you from?”


    “Where do you live?”


    “How old are you?


    “What’s your upation?”


    ‘What do your parents do?”


    Larissa finally got to experience what others meant by petling interrogated.” She answered all their


    questions patiently but didn’t know what to say when she heard the word ‘parents.” She shot Kevan a


    pleading look, hoping that he would help her divert the topic of conversation, but he acted as if he didn’t


    see it. Instead, he helped Ruby get a sice cl pizza.


    Larissa gripped the tablecloth and forced herself to look away. She tried her best to keep a smile on her


    face and said. ‘My parents passed away a long time ago, and I grew up in my aunt’s care. My aunt


    used to be a very famous actress. Her name is Yvette Xander.”All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.
