    She was not deliberately trying to distance hersell from him-She was able to distinguish between


    situations clearly-she was working right now, and he, on the other hand, was a hotel guest.


    “Please head inside, Mr. Shields has been wailing for you.”


    Kevan remained in front of her though, blocking her path. “And you?” He looked down at her, his eyes


    calm. One could not see if there was any emotional turmoil within him,


    “I need to go back to work.” Larissa brushed past his arm in an attempt to leave.


    Kevan reached back to grab her wrist Her arm was so thin that he could practically feel her bones. She


    was so much thinner than thest time he saw her. His heart ached for her while his anger was also


    stoked by thect that she did not know how to take good care of herself. His grip automatically


    tightened on her.


    Larissa hissed in pain.


    “Eat first.” Kevan’s cold voice sounded in her ear, his tone showing that he was not to be questioned.


    The chilling look in his eyes made her feel nervous. He practically dragged her back into the room.


    Dn seemed unsurprised with this result only smiling as he nced at them ncy.


    The waiter arrived with the food a few minutester, and the three of them sat around the coffee table


    to eat. They ate quielly without saying anything to each other.


    Kevan kept cing bits of food onto Larissa’s te until they literally became a tiny hil


    These days. Larissa’s appetite grew smaller and smaller, probably due to the fact that her meal intake


    had been irregr for a long time, as she usually ate only one meal a day.


    She only ate a little before putting her cutlery down. *’m done.”


    Kevan’s expression became unpleasant. She practically did not touch the bits of lood he gave her. “Eat


    more,” he ordered.


    Larissa was not intimidated by him though. “I can’t eat anymore.” She simply tossed what remained of


    her meal into the trash can.


    Kevan’s anger rose further. He had not yet spoken when his phone suddenly rang-the one that he usedBelongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    for work.


    The number was an unknown one. Imitated. Kesan declined the call but whoever it was called again.


    Dn advised him, “Pick it up. What if someone’s calling you for a billion-dor business deal?”


    Kevan declined the call, his eyes Exed on Larissa, who understood the concern and reproach in them.


    Suddenly, she fell a Elle apologetic and a little regretful, thinking that she should not have just thrown


    away her food.


    “I guess —I’ll just eat more?” She picked up her cullery again and only then did Kevan’s expression


    mellow out.


    His phone stopped ringing, and just as everyone thought that the caller had given up, a text message


    popped out. “Answer the f ucking phone! Your daughter is in my hands!”


    Kevan ced his phone on the coffee table. Larissa and Dn were close to him. All they needed to


    do was to take a peek to see the message clearly.


    Dn’s smile gradually froze, and Larissa agitatedly eximed in a reminder to Kevan, ‘Your daughter


    has been kidnapped!”


    Kevan’s reaction was the calmest out of all three of them. He gave Larissa hall of what was on his te


    before starting to pick bits of food for her again as II he were not aware of what had happened.
