Sweet Subterfuge

Chapter 914

Marilyn, who had left earlier, had somehow come back and she was standing not far from them.

She was staring at them in shock with wide, blue eyes, and her mouth was open. The bag that Larissa gifted her was on the llcor by Marilyn’s leet. The lipstick had rolled out of the bag.

“S–Sorry! Marilyn quickly grabbed her things after recovering and turned around. “I didn’t see anything!” This time, she escaped faster.

“She misunderstood, I think.” Larissa pulled away from Lewis and glared at him irritably. Lewis‘ previous position was too much.

If Larissa was Marilyn, she would have overthought it loo.

“Isn’t it good that she misunderstood?” Lewis was calm though. “It’s just as well because it should stop you from trying to matchmake me and her.”

Larissa did not want to expose her relationship to Lewis, so it was hard to explain to Marilyn what she saw earlier,

Larissa angrily packed her things and muttered, “I want to see just how long you will remain single!”

Lewis treating Larissa to a meal was lake, but forcing Marilyn away was real. As a result, the moment they left the building, Lewis sald goodbye to Larissa and went toward his car. Larissa quickly followed and entered the passenger’s seat before Lewis locked the car door.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to treat me to a meal? Let’s go!” She put on the safety bell and had a look of utter pride on her face.

Lewis gave her a look and said nothing. He calmly started the car.

After Lewis‘ car vanished around the comer, a small red car parked in a corner drove into the crowded streets.

Having managed to gel Lewis to spend money on her. Larissa picked a high–end restaurant that she herself could not usually bear to go to. However, the moment they sat down. Larissa’s phone began to vibrate madly in her bag.

The only people who would find her at this time were those three at home. Larissa felt for her phone, and she was going to start boasting when she found out that the person who called her was actually Allen, who did not contact her anymore after the parent–ch ld activities at Aster’s school.

Larissa did not want to answer Allen’s call. She simply put the phone face down on the table and waited for the call to end. But he did not. seem to want to give up. When the first call ended, the phone vibrated two seconds later.

Lewis advised her. “Answer it. What if someone has something urgent?”

Larissa sighed helplessly and answered the call.

Allen’s frantic voice came over at once. “Larissa, have you seen Freddy?”

“Huh?” Larissa froze. “No? Why?” This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

“Freddy’s missing! Allen was so worried that he was close to crying. “Our nanny had something happen at the last minute and was half an hour late to the kindergarten. And Freddy has gone missing!”

“Don’t panic.” Larissa’s anxiety began to grow too, but she had to be calm to comfort Allen. “Do the teachers not know where he went?”

“After school was over, Freddy said he wanted to go to the toilet, and the teacher let him go, but he never came back to the classroom

“What about the kindergarten’s surveillance? Have you seen it?”

“Yes. He had followed the other parents out of ine school. The teacher helped me contact one of the parents, who said that she did not know Freddy and had not known that Freddy had lollowed her out.”
