Lewis‘ question was too straightforward, and Larissa was not prepared.
“Huh?” Her eyes sparkled with something as she tried to lib. “I just thought that Dad was too much, so I
said that to make him angry on purposer
“So, you feel nothing for Mr. Rogers? Lewis pressed her.
Larissa looked down. Her fingemails were digging into her palm. She did not want to let Lewis know
how she felt. Still she did not want to
lie either.
Lewis knew what a long silence meant. “I know your answer. His voice was mild. “Next time Uncle Gary
does anything else. I’ll help you.”
Larissa looked up. Lewis was not looking at her, and his expression was still normal
“Don’t tell Uncle Gary about this.” He reminded her. “Otherwise, I be kicked out of the house.”
Larissa teared up because of how touched she felt.
Although Lewis had always treated her like she was his biological sister, their relationship only formed
because of Gary.
She never expected Lewis to choose her when she was in conflict with Gary. But Lewis did exactly that
today.
“Lewis
However, before Larissa could say anything heartfelt, Lewis interrupted her and said. “I’m only helping
you because I think Uncle Gary’s not handling this correctly. I have no thoughts of matchmaking you
and Mr. Rogers
“But I must say this in defense of Uncle Gary. Although he can be kinda bossy, he’s sill the person who
loves you most in the world. Never
ever doubt that.”
Larissa replied with a sob. “I know.”
“Alright.” Lewis pushed her ankle off of his knee before using tissues to wipe of the remaining medicine
on his hands. He grunted in disgust, still able to smell the medicine. Frowning, Lewis quickly threw the
tissues into the trash can.
Lewis stood up and asked Larissa, “Will you go home tonight, or will you stay here?”
He had massaged her ankle for so long. The swelling had reduced a little, but it still looked pretty
hideous.
“If you want to stay, Fl be able to take you to the company tomorrow.”
Larissa could not drive, and now that her ankle was swollen-
“I’m going home.” Larissa was decisive. “Wendy will be working overtime for a week starting from
tomorrow. She has no time to pick Aster up at all I have to do it myself.”
The so–called “Industrial Summit was held at the hotel Wendy worked in. It just so happened that
Wendy’s job was operational planning
for big events.
So, everything, including venue decoration and deployment of people, was under Wendy’s job scope.
When she got really busy, she could not even go home, so forget taking care of a kid.
“How can you pick Aster up with the way you are now?” Lewis assessed the situation before making a
direct decision. “Stay here. I will bring Aster here, and I’ll send him to school tomorrow morning.”
“This is too far from his school, it’s not convenient. Larissa insisted on leaving. “I just twisted my ankle, I
didn’t break my leg. I can still walk. Besides, there are cabs everywhere in Westonia. Il I can’t get a cab
I can still get an Uber.”
The environment here was too unfamiliar for Aster. Larissa was afraid that he would not be able to
sleep well at night. Besides, Glory Hill was too far from the kindergarten, One would have to wake
really early to send Aster to school
Rather than make Aster suller, Larissa would rather suffer hersell.
Seeing that Larissa was them and stubborn in her decision, Lewis said alter some thinking, “How about
this? Mr. Rogers will have to stay here for a while anyway, so you let him stay at your place and help
you with sending Aster to school.”
“Could you help me tell him? Larissa did not reluse this.
“Okay.“Lewis waved his phone at her. “Il text you the details of the arrangements laler.”
