Aster counted on his fingers. “Cake, chocolate, ice cream, fried chicken___”
They were all his favorites, but Larissa didn’t allow him to eat too much of them.
When Aster saw Larissa’s face darkening, he immediately hid himself in Gary’s embrace and acted like
a spoiled child, “Grandpa. Mommy is so scary!”
Gary took over the phone and explained in a hurry, “Don’t worry, I’ve kept track of his diet. I only bought
him a little of everything.”
“A little of everything… No wonder Aster had gotten so much chubbier.” Larissa thought.
Larissa suddenly felt glad that she hadn’t reunited with Gary too early. Otherwise, judging from how
Indulgent he was toward children, Aster would probably end up as some sort of spoiled kid from a
wealthy family, just like Bethany.
“I’ll go and pick him up tomorrow,” she said.
Gary wasn’t pleased with that. “Let him stay with me lor a few days more. I’ve just gotten close with
Aster, and we’re getting along well too. I’ll be lonely if he’s gone.”
“If I continue to let you take care of him, I’ll have a hard time trying to discipline him again.”
Aster pouted at the camera. “You won’t! I’m a good child!” He didn’t agree with what his mother said.
“Do you want to continue to eat at Grandpa’s place and make a pig of yourself? Don’t forget that if you
eat too much, you might get yourself killed.” Larissa scared him on purpose.
That was a line from the animated movie that Aster loved watching. In the movie, the scene where the
parents of the main character ended up as pigs while eating was once his biggest nightmare.
As expected. Aster was terrified. He immediately jumped out of Gary’s arms. “I’ll go back tomorrow!
Gary shot daggers at Larissa. “Why did you scare him like that?”
Larissa chuckled.
When it was about time for Aster to go to sleep, Gary asked the nanny to bring the kid to wash up.
The video call was still going on. It wasn’t until Aster left that Gary asked, “Has your friend gotten
better?”
Lewis had sent Aster to Gary’s house by using the excuse that Wendy had suffered from heartbreak
and needed Larissa to comfort and take care of her.
Due to Gary’s illness, Lewis and Larissa tacitly kept him in the dark about a lot of things.
“Yes, a lot better,” she replied.
“In that case, come back to work tomorrow.” He no longer sounded as relaxed as when Aster was
around. “Don’t let your personal things hold you back for too long. Since you have decided to take
charge of the company, you’ll have to get used to how things work as soon as possible, not to mention
meeting clients and managing your connections.
“I heard from Lewis that you refused to go on a business trip because of your friend. I’m old, and my
health is also getting weaker, I can’t hold on for too long. I want to let you take over my position quickly
so that I can rest at home and look after the children. You know it too; something has happened to the
company recently…”
When Larissa heard that, her expression turned solemn. “Okay, Fll go back tomorrow.”
It seemed like the current situation wasn’t favorable for the company, otherwise, Gary wouldn’t have
said that to her.
Gary nodded. “Alright. Rest early. I’m going to sleep loo.”
As soon as Larissa ended the call, she tossed her plane aside and looked up at the sky. A helpless
sigh escaped her lips.
Right then, Kevan walked out of the bathroom after taking his shower, “What’s wrong?” He was
exuding a wall of a pleasant minty–lemon fragrance.
“He uses the same shower gel as me, but why do I feel that he smells beller?” she mullered inwardly.
