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

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

hazy. Even his typically cool fingertips were a bit warm.

Larissa had heard that some people had a tendency to have a mild fever when they got drunk, but

Kevan had never been drunk in front of her, so she didn’t know if he had such a minor ailment.

However, she wouldn’t take it lightly

She stepped back and placed her left hand on his forehead. His body temperature seemed to be

slightly higher than hers, and she immediately began to panic. As soon as she entered his house, she

urgently asked where the first aid kit was located Although Kevan’s home was empty, it still had all the

necessary things. She successfully found a thermometer, unbuttoned his shirt, and stuck it under his

of warm water, and wiped his face with a towel. He suddenly felt a warm sensation filling up the

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
