    Chapter 935


    Kevan’s heart thumped violently in his chest.


    He took a step forward and embraced her. Burying his face in her shoulder, he said in a hoarse and


    muffled voice, “Lari.”


    Kevan had so many things he wanted to say to her, but he was afraid that expressing his true emotions


    would scare her away.


    In the end, he half–threatened her jokingly. “You can never escape from me for the rest of your life.”


    Larissa hadn’t even considered running away. She hugged him hack tightly.


    Before Larissa could tease him about it she caught sight of Kevan’s parents and Aster out of theer


    of her eye.


    They were watching them eagerly through the window with expressions of interest on their faces.


    Startled, Larissa a pushed Kevan away. In her haste, she bumped into his arm.


    Kevan look a sharp breath and a look of pain shed across his face.


    Larissa didn’t have time to reprimand the three of them for spying. She rushed to support Kevan.


    “What’s wrong?” she asked, scanning his arm for any signs of injury.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Pulling her aside, Kevan brought her to the other side of the house. A solid wall blocked them from


    prying eyes.


    He raised his left arm and said with an aggrieved expression, “When I came over in the morning, I ran


    into Aunt Maria causing trouble here. I got out of the car to stop her, but she shed me in the arm with


    a knife.”


    Her heart racing, Larissa grabbed Kevan’s hand and bombarded him with questions, “Where did she


    hurt you? Is it serious? Have you treated the wound? Do you feel any pain? Did you call the police?”


    Kevan’s gray sweatshirt covered the wound on his arm. He pointed vaguely, indicating a rough area on


    his arm.


    “It’s not serious. I took care of it right away, and it doesn’t hurt it I don’t touch it. Aunt Maria should be in


    the detention center by now. Don’t worry, I won’t let myself get hurt for no reason.” Kevan answered.


    “Let’s go inside. I want to take a look at your injury.” Larissa was not in a mood for a walk anymore.


    Kevan always downyed serious matters. Larissa couldn’tpletely trust him when he glossed over


    things like that.


    Kevan didn’t object and agreed, “Okay.”


    He intentionally let Maria cut him with a knife for two reasons. The first was to have sufficient evidence


    to send Maria to prison. The other reason was so he could use his injury to gain some sympathy from


    Larissa.


    In his original n, Kevan intended for Larissa to discover his injury before going to bed andfort


    him. Despite the timing being


    brought forward, the results would be the same anyway.


    When they entered the house, the spying trio were all seated on the s.


    Anthony was concentrating on drinking his tea, while Violet held a te of fruit and fed Aster. On the


    other hand, Aster seemed to be


    focused on watching cartoons.


    They acted as if nothing had happened just now.


    Kevan couldn’t be bothered to expose them. He spoke nonchntly, “Larissa and I will be going to


    work early tomorrow morning. We will


    be going upstairs to bed now.”


    Aster turned to him and asked, “What about me?”


    Violet hugged him in her arms andughed merrily. “Aster, you can stay up tonight and keep us


    company! I will tuck you into bedter. alright?”


    Aster hesitated for a few seconds and nodded. “Okay.”


    Larissa stayed the night at Rogers‘ vi. Naturally, she and Keyan shared a room.

    belongings. It looked no different from a regr room for guests.


    Larissa locked the door. Turning around, she told Kevan immediately. “Take off your clothes!”
