Chapter 189
In the end, Lanssa left Dylan’s house happily, holding a whip and a bunch of miscellaneous household items they had bought for her as a welcoming gift.
Kevan walked with her, and after they left the house, she noticed that he was carrying a somewhat familiar paper bag
“Isn’t this the gift I brought?” she asked.
She clearly remembered that the guy who drew her gift was the one who teased Kevan endlessly and poured him drinks. But how did the item end up in Revan’s hands after such a short while?
“He didn’t want it, so he gave it to me.” Kevan said calmly.
He was telling the truth, albeit omitting certain unnecessary details, such as blackmailing the guy with some information)
Larissa had long noticed that he was quite well-respected amongst the group Although they teased and joked with him, they ultimately wished him well. So, the intense commotion over her gift just now was probably just an act, a way to push his buttons Regardless of who got it, it would. eventually be given to him. Larissa might have only felt slightly embarrassed if the gift was with someone else, however, she was more flustered now that it had ended up with Kevan

She successfully found a thermometer, unbuttoned his shirt, and stuck it under his aun
Kevan slouched on the sofa, watching the slender woman bustling around as she pouted him at glass of warm water, and wiped his face with a towel. He suddenly felt a warm sensation filling up the emptiness of his heart, and even his stomachache wasn’t as intense as before
He wasn’t drunk, but he truly felt uncomfortable. He had been working overtime, so he missed dinner and drank a whole bottle of liquor on an empty stomach. His stomach already felt upset for quite some time, but he didn’t show it as he did not want her to worry
The first aid kit was right before him, he quickly took two pills for his stomach and swallowed them while Larissa was making fruit juice in the kitchen Larissa returned with freshly squeezed
orange juice, and Kevan handed her the thermometer
Fortunately, he did not have a lever.
“Have some “Larissa had warmed the orange juice, worried that drinking it as it was would hurt his stomach.
Kevan was immediately overwhelmed with emotions as he touched the warm cup She had always been such a considerate and attentive person to everyone around Moreover, she never expected anything in return for her kindness. That was why she stood out to him, making it difficult for him to let go.
However, while she was special to him, he was probably just another stranger she helped, not even worthy of remembering An overwhelming sense of sorrow surged like a tide, engulfing him As he sipped the bittersweet orange juice, only a lingering bitterness remained
