Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo

Although Aster's intentions were good, Kevan still did not send him back to Violet's to prevent her from hesitating when leaving the house tomorrow. "Once Grandma has come home tomorrow, I'll send you over, okay?" Kevan told Aster.

Aster forced himself to nod and say, "Okay, then."

Because he had been separated too long from Larissa, Aster kept sticking to her that night until he fell asleep. Only then did Larissa tiptoe away from him. Kevan was waiting for her in the bedroom.

His upper body was bade and the blanket was pulled up to his waist.

When he saw Larissa enter the room, his blank gaze lit up at once.

"Lari." He smiled gently, and his hoarse voice was seductive.

Larissa could not help but shudder. She pretended not to hear or see anything as she walked across the bedroom to enter the walk-in closet.

Kevan followed her. He wore very loose pajama pants and was not completely naked like Larissa had thought.

Larissa opened a drawer and took out her underwear. Kevan hugged her from behind and his cold lips pressed against the side of her neck. He lightly kissed that place.

"It itches." Larissa frowned and pushed his face away. But Kevan stuck his face over again.

"You've separated from me for so long, and you don't miss me at all?" he asked with jealousy. His voice showed how unhappy he was.

Larissa naturally missed him, or she would not have bought a flight ticket home without consulting with Lewis. However, she could not say such sappy things in front of him.

"You still need to wake up early to go to the cemetery tomorrow! Go to sleep!" She pushed Kevan again.

"It's fine." Kevan's hand was already underneath her clothes. His eyes were so dark they were literally shining. "My strength... you know it best." He turned her around and slammed his lips on hers. Larissa was originally refusing him as he had things to do tomorrow, but she easily gave in to his ministrations. The arms that were pushing against Kevan's shoulders to refuse him had changed into crawling up to hug his neck.

"Lari, I miss you so much." As all the chains chaining Kevan were now broken, Kevan was able to say his feelings out loud much better than ever. He bit her lip as his breathing grew heavy. "Every fucking night ... I want you."

He was a normal man. He was a strong, healthy, and normal man. He worked so hard to trick and lie to bring his wife back to him, and now he can finally kiss his "single" life goodbye and take back his own happiness.

They did not sleep much tonight. Kevan was very passionate, and he refused to spare Larissa even though she begged him to.

It was only when the sun gradually rose up that Kevan stopped reluctantly.

He carried her into the bathroom for a bath before carrying her back to bed. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Larissa fell asleep the moment her head hit the pillow.

Larissa heard a lot of little noises through her haze of sleep.

Kevan quickly finished changing his clothes and washing up.

He pressed a kiss to her forehead and said gently, "Wait for me to come back."

Kevan still went to the cemetery.

He watched emotionlessly as the workers placed Bethany's coffin into its final resting place before closing the tomb and putting up the gravestone. Violet cried so hard that she collapsed onto the ground.

Anthony crouched next to her, carefully holding her so she did not fall onto the ground completely.

There were very few people who came to see Bethany off today.

Only their closest friends came.

Uncle Felix's family did not show up at all.
