Chapter 193

Dylan’s words made plenty of sense and immediately got Larissa convinced. “Fine, I’ll sign it.” Dylan

only took two minutes to finish writing the letter of guarantee, and Larissa signed her name on it without

hesitation. As per their plan, Dylan separated the letter into two copies and said, “So, I’ll keep one copy,

right?”

Just as he was about to stuff it into his pocket, Kevan stopped him. “Give it to me.” Dylan pouted and

looked annoyed. “Fine, take it! It’s just a piece of paper anyway, not some precious treasure!”

Kevan gripped the letter tightly and pointed to the door. “You may leave now,” he said.

“What a way to burn bridges!” Dylan tutted and walked to the door. Then, he turned around and subtly

made an “OK” sign at Larissa.

“Does your head still hurt?” Larissa asked Kevan although it seemed very redundant. Seeing how

energetic he was earlier, she already

knew that he was as fit as a fiddle.

However, Kevan slumped onto the sofa the moment he heard her question and frowned deeply,

massaging his temples with one hand. ”

Yes,” he said weakly.

What a drama queen! Larissa watched him coldly, finding it funny and annoying at the same time.

Kevan’s drunk personality was so much different than his usual self, and it was oddly adorable. All she

knew was that it didn’t p iss her off. “It’s late. Go take a shower and go to

bed,” said Larissa.

“I’m not going!” Kevan glared at her and pursed his lips. His tone sounded like he was throwing a

tantrum. “You’re going to run off while I shower, aren’t you?” Larissa was speechless at having her

intentions exposed. “No,” she said and forced a sincere-looking smile. “You reek of alcohol I’m sure the

smell makes you uncomfortable too. Besides…” She pointed at the paper he was holding and

continued, “I already signed the guarantee letter. Where could I possibly run off to?”

Kevan fixed his sharp gaze on her as if he were contemplating if she was telling the truth. Larissa met

his gaze confidently, her expression showing that she had nothing to hide. A moment later, he got up

from the sofa and said, “I’ll go take a shower.” He walked unsteadily and Larissa hurried over to support

him while thinking, “Wasn’t he very steady when he went to open the door for Dylan?”

Larissa did not linger in the bathroom for long. She just helped him inside and went out. Nevertheless,

she still felt worried since he wasn’t feeling completely normal. She reminded him, “Don’t let the water

leak outside. Call me if anything happens. I’m right outside the door.”

Kevan nodded obediently and said, “Alright.”

When the bathroom door was closed, his dazed expression melted away into his usual frigid look. He

unfolded the paper in his hand and looked at the name in the lower right corner, revealing a confident

smile. Then, he took his time showering. After that, the first thing he saw when he opened the door was

Larissa scrolling on her phone on the bed. She really hadn’t left.

Hearing the noise, Larissa looked up and said, “Done showering?” At once, he rushed toward her and

pinned her against the bed. He had carefully avoided her injured right shoulder and tumbled with her on

the soft bed. They lay facing each other, the tips of their noses

touching.

Kevan watched her quietly with an unfathomable look in his eyes. “Lari,” he said softly.

Although she knew that he wasn’t actually calling out for her, Larissa’s heart couldn’t help but s kip a

beat. “I’m here,” she said, acting out her role diligently.

Kevan hugged her more tightly and closed his eyes contentedly.
