Chapter 147

Lana was even more worked up than Larissa. “Tm sorry, Mr. Rogers! I had no ideal Hurriedly, she

packed the food back into the lunch box.

To remedy the awkward situation, Lana blurted, “Let me treat you to a meal instead! We should go to a

restaurant you like and order your

favorite dishes?

Kevan declined politely. “There’s no need for that. I saved you yesterday because your sister was

worried about you. If you want to thank someone, you should thank your sister properly.”

Lana’s smile froze on her face. After a few minutes, she regained her composure and winked at Larissa

cheekily. “Of course. I definitely have to thank my sister. However, you got involved with those thugs

and injured yourself while trying to save me. That’s why I wanted to thank you as well”

Larissa thought to herself, “Injured?” Then, she glanced at Kevan instinctively.

When she arrived at Quinn Bar with the police yesterday, Kevan and Dylan had already subdued that

group of thugs. Since she didn’t witness the fight, Larissa assumed that Kevan was unharmed because

he showed no signs of pain.

“Was he truly injured? She couldn’t help but wonder agah as she recalled the events from last night.

“If you really want to thank me Kevan pondered for a moment, then pulled Larissa closer to him. “Let

me spend half a day with your

sister just the both of us.”

Larissa and Lana were once again astounded.

After a while, Lana grudgingly squeezed out a strained smile. “Sure, i go back to the hotel then. See

you tonight Larissa.”

Giving Larissa a withering look, Lana packed up the bag and stood up. Waving goodbye, she walked

towards the door briskly.

Larissa caught sight of her wiping the tears off her face. Feeling guilty, she wanted to go after Lana, but

Kevan pulled her back by the waist as soon as she stood up.

In that brief delay. Lana had slammed the door shut and left.

“Lana is crying. I have to go check on her.” Larissa tried to thee herself from Kevan’s grasp.

However, his grip was too strong. No matter how she tried to pry his fingers apart, he wouldn’t let go.

“Don’t you dislike Lana? His calm tone was laced with confusion, “Why do you care if she’s crying or

not?”

Larissa was startled at Kevan’s keen observation. Touching her face, she asked. “Am I that obvious?

She always thought that she hid her negative emotions pretty well but Kevan saw through her easily.

“No, you’re not,” Kevan spoke honestly, but I can feel it.”

Larissa slumped her shoulders in disappointment. Her acting skills weren’t as good as she thought.

She needed to make sure it was convincing enough so that Lana wouldn’t suspect anything before

leaving the Regal Dynasty Hotel

Looking at her tightly knitted brows, Kevan fell an inexplicable urge to soothe her wonies, but he

managed to hold himself back in the end.

“Since you’re here, let’s have a meal together,” he said casually. Kevan released his hand from her

waist and moved away, creating some distance between them.

“I’ve already eaten, Larissa had to refuse his invitation, although it wasn’t her intention.

Seeing Revan’s cross expression, she quickly explained, “I didn’t sleep well last night, so I had an early

lunch. If it weren’t for Lana calling me here. I had planned to take an afternoon nap.”

The frown on Kevan’s face softened at Larissa’s explanation.

“I have a lounge next door. You can nap there in the allemoon and have dinner with me later.”

Since he insisted on having a meal together, Larissa couldn’t find any reason to refuse

“Oh, I almost forgot.” Larissa was suddenly reminded of something important. “Lana said you were

injured. Was it a serious injury?”
