Kevan stayed quiet. He knew better than anyone how stubbom Larissa could be.
On top of that, it was not the best time to pursue her–his intention was just to test the waters and gauge
how open she was to the idea. As expected, she was still the same as before, unwilling to give him
even the slightest chance. She probably trusted him even less than before–after all, he had hurt her in
so many ways in the past.
