Sweet Subterfuge

Chapter 257

Chapter 257 Larissa was suddenly imitated and threw the blanket on him before closing her eyes again. Then, she heard Kevan’s chuckle. His lips were so close to her face that he almost kissed her ear. “Jealous?” His breath grazed her skin, causing a surge of warmth to course through her. Larissa panicked and shot him a glare in response. “Who’s jealous? Don’t let your imagination run wild!” “Okay.” Kevan was suddenly considerate. Although he said that there was still a hint of tease in his gaze.

Larissa bit her lower lip and retrieved a baseball hat and eye mask from her bag. She covered herself with the cap and the mask before putting on her headphones. She cranked up the music to its maximum volume to completely isolate herself from him. Her actions only made Kevan laugh. The gentle expression in his eyes attracted many passengers. One passenger was even tempted to secretly take a picture but was shot a warning gaze by Kevan. Shocked, the passenger shuddered and put away his phone. At first, Larissa was just pretending to be asleep, but eventually, she really dozed off. Kevan woke her up before the plane landed. Throughout the flight, their hands remained firmly intertwined. When they got off the plane, Larissa was embarrassed and wanted her hand to be free, but Kevan strongly refused. However, practicality eventually prevailed, and Kevan reluctantly released her hand when pushing the suitcases with only one hand became inconvenient. The Regal Dynasty Hotel did not send anyone to pick Larissa up. The general manager told her to get a taxi and that the company would reimburse her when she returned. So, she planned to hitchhike Kevan’s car. When Larissa and Kevan exited the airport a black Maybach with the number plate 8888 came to a halt

before them. Then, a young man dressed in a suit stepped out of the car and greeted them with a respectful bow. “Mr. Rogers.” Kevan responded with a slight acknowledgment, and the perceptive young man promptly took charge of the trolley. He moved two of Larissa’s large suitcases into the trunk. Meanwhile, Kevan opened the car door for Larissa and told her to get in. “To Regal Dynasty?” he asked her. Larissa nodded. “Thave to meet with the hotel’s housekeeping department to learn about the situation. I’ll only start work officially tomomow.” “Okay.” “What about you? Are you going home or the company?” “I’m going to the Regal Dynasty,” he answered. “For work?” That was the only reason Larissa could think of. Kevan fell silent for a moment before saying. It can be said so.” All the managers from various branches of the Regal Dynasty Hotel were part of a group chat. Larissa look the initiative to add the contact of the housekeeping manager from the Bartham branch that she had acquired from the group chat beforehand. They shared the same surname, so Larissa had a good impression of her even though they hadn’t met. When they were about to reach, Larissa sent Lotus a text. Lotus then replied that she would be waiting at the entrance for her. Larissa waited ten minutes in the lobby with her two suitcases, but no one appeared. Kevan had lost his patience and said, “Give her a call. Ask her how long we still need to wait.” Larissa made a call, but no one answered.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
