    Larissa soon found a new home and moved out of Kevan’s house. Although Dn had informed her


    that the house she was living in had been one of the properties Kevan had granted her in the divorce


    settlement she fell no achment to it. She packed her belongings and


    left without locking back.


    The news of Ruby’s pregnancy with Kevan’s chid spread rapidly within the Rogers’ Cick. Meanwhile,


    Edmund began frequenting Larissa’s office. He would send her flowers, gifts and ask her on dates,


    employing various tactics to pursue her. However, Larissa remained interested.


    In the end, feeling overwhelmed by the situation, she handed in her resignation letter. However, this


    decision wasn’t something she had Just thought of. She had always disliked Barthem. It lett Eke this


    city had been a backdrop for all her lowest moments in Ife and it seemed to conscire against her at


    every turn.


    Larissa knew she would never be transfered back to Covenford, The only way to leave this pace was

    Unsurprisingly, Edmund rejected her resignation letter and made a sincere plea lorter to stay. “The


    Regal Dynasty Hotel will be doomed


    without you.”


    When Lanssa heard his exaggerated words, she couldn’t help butugh. “The Regal Dynasty Hotel will


    continue to thrive. It will survive no matter who lell. Someone will soon fill in my position,”


    “But that someone might not be as good as you” Edmund insisted leaning over the officeble and


    gripping her hand tightly. His gaze


    was intense. filed with deep affection.


    Larissa lowered her head to dodge his gaze and pulled her hand away. She sighed. “Mr. Rogers. I just


    be frank. Whether you approve my resignation or not, I’m leaving. If you choose to approve it I continue


    for another month and get all the work sorted out before leaving. If you don’t I wente to work


    starting tomorrow. Im prepared to forgo this month’s sry”


    Edmund stared at her for a long time and realized she wasn’t joking. Only then did he return to his seat


    and be serious, “Okay, 11. inform the HR Department to begin the necessary procedures for your


    resignation.”


    The person who took over Larissa’s position was the deputy manager. She had been on leave to


    recuperate at home. It was also because she took charge of the position that everything went smoothly.

    Regardless of Larissa’s guilt, she mustered the courage to be honest with Dn. “Until the day I can’t


    hide it anymore.”


    Her answer only made him furious. “Have you ever treated me as a friend?”


    “It’s precisely because you’re my friend that I don’t want to tell you about it.”


    Larissa hated goodbyes. The emotional farewells filled with lears and reluctance were something she


    detested. It was just like when she left Wendy, it was an experience she vowed never to relive.


    Her exnation Carey convinced Dn, but he eventually calmed down and as sed, “So, where are


    you nning to go next?


    “I don’t know,” sheughed. She had no specific n for the future but was sure of only one thing. “I


    will not stay in Bartham,”


    Dn wasn’t surprised at all by her response. He then asked. “Are you going back to Covenlord?”


    “I don’t know,” answered Larissa truthfully as she shook her head
