Larissa stiffened up and held her breath. She didn’t date move, fearing that Dylan and Lana would see
through their façade. She forced a dry smile and placed her left hand on Kevan s arm, giving it
a gentle pat
“What’s the matter? There are other people here!” She pouted playfully.
“What’s wrong with that?” Kevan raised an eyebrow, his cold gaze sweeping over Dylan, who was
focused on eating
Dylan buried his head even lower, and before he finished chewing the rice in his mouth, he hurriedly
said, “You can ignore my entire existence!

“Are you still mad at Mom and Dad?” She pursed her lips, and tears brimmed her eyes, as if she had

“Yeah.” Larissa didn’t shy away from showing her disdain for her mother and stepfather in front of
others. It would be impossible for her to hide her strong feelings for them
Lana didn’t expect her to be so frank, and she was at a loss for words. But soon, tears started to
stream down her face.
Kevan gave her a strong tug, and she fell onto his lap with his arms around her slender waist. His
actions shocked everyone, including Larissa.
Dylan cleared his throat and adjusted his glasses, his gaze wandering aimlessly, avoiding them
completely.
“Is anyone hungry? Let’s eat!” He sat across from Lana and called out to her, “Ms. Seymour, don’t be
shy, make yourself comfortable”
“What’s the point? I’m sick just watching the two of them! Lana complained jokingly.
Larissa felt extremely uncomfortable even though she knew he did it intentionally to show how
affectionate they were before Lana. She couldn’t remain as calm as he did. She had never been so
intimate with another man, not even with Travis. It was a completely new experience for her.

“Yeah.” Larissa didn’t shy away from showing her disdain for her mother and stepfather in front of
others. It would be impossible for her to hide her strong feelings for them.
Lana didn’t expect her to be so frank, and she was at a loss for words. But soon, tears started to
stream down her face.
“I came to a realization after Mr. Rogers scolded me last time, and called Mom to talk Mom realized she
was wrong; and has been wanting to reconcile with you, she choked out.
Larissa didn’t believe her nonsense.
“Then why hasn’t she approached me after so long?”
Lana was once again silenced by her question
“That’s because… She trailed off, struggling for a long time to find an excuse. Her face turned red. and
she finally managed the words. “She was waiting until New Year’s when everyone would be free to
meet, so we could meet and talk things out
Larissa sneered inwardly.
Tll be working overtime on New Year’s. If she really wants to reconcile with me, she should at least
show some sincerity and find out when I’ll be available, right?
Upon hearing this, Lana started to cry even more uncontrollably.
“Larissa, please don’t make things difficult Mom truly wants to reconcile with you Wouldn’t it be great if
we could be a happy family again?”
She reached out to grab Larissa’s right arm, but Larissa dodged to the side, tugging on her injured

shoulder, causing her to gasp in pain
Kevan furrowed his brow, and shielded Larissa with his arm, glaring coldly at Lana
“Get lost if you don’t want to enjoy this meal”
He had said some harsh words to Lana before, but asking her to get lost was too much for Lana to
handle. Even Larissa and Dylan thought he was taking things too far.
Lana stared at him in a daze with misty eyes, as tears continued to flow down her cheeks. She pursed
her lips, and suddenly stood up, knocking over the chair behind her.
“Since none of you like me, I’ll just leave!”
Then, she stormed out angrily.
“Wait!” Kevan suddenly called out.
Lana froze for a moment, and there was a flicker of joy on her face. However, she tried to control hei
delight and maintained a cold demeanor.
“What’s the matter? Did you change… Before she could finish her sentence, Kevan had sent the bag
flying toward her.
Take it back.” Kevan’s voice was cold, and he didn’t even look in her direction as he spoke, focusing his
attention on peeling the shrimp for Larissa
The bag eventually landed on the ground, and a loud shattering sound could be heard. Lana felt that
her dignity, like this bag, had been callously thrown on the ground, and heartlessly tra mpled. on by
Kevan over and over again. She clenched her teeth, bent down to pick up the bag, and secretly vowed
that she would make Larissa pay for the humiliation she suffered today.
As soon as Lana left, Larissa left Kevan’s embrace and sat across from him. Kevan could feel her
warmth leave him, and he regretted standing up for Larissa, which drove Lana away.
Dylan couldn’t help but reprimand Kevan. Even if Lana is annoying, she is still a girl. What you did to
her just now was not chivalrous at all”
“When have I ever been chivalrous?” Kevan retorted.
Dylan thought about it for a moment and realized that it was true except for his attitude toward
Larissa
“You were quite chivalrous toward Larissa
Larissa was helping herself with one of the dishes and she paused when she heard this Her heart
began to beat uncontrollably, and she lowered her head, pretending not to hear their conversation.
Kevan glanced at her, his heart sank after seeing her cold expression. Then, he spat bitterly. That’s
because she has some use to me.”
Dylan sighed and rubbed his forehead. He was speechless at Kevan’s words, and thought he was
destined to be single for the rest of his life!
