Chapter 178
Maria and Jacob left soon as they were worried about disturbing Larissa’s rest. Kevan
accompanied them all the way to the elevator before returning.
As soon as he entered the door, he noticed Larissa looking at him with an inquisitive gaze, as if
observing a rare jewel. Kevan touched his face embarrassedly and turned to avoid her gaze. What’s
wrong?”
“Hmm? Nothing.” Larissa realized that she had been staring at him and quickly averted her gaze. She
was just slightly surprised Others might not care as much about seeing off a guest, but she felt it was
impolite not to do so However, when Kevan did it, it made her feel he was humbling himself down. In
fact, everything Kevan did after Maria and Jacob arrived went against his usual behavior
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLarissa even suspected that Kevan had a twin brother that she was unaware of. Otherwise, none of his
actions seemed logical. Kevan glanced at her a few more times, understanding what was going on in
her mind, but he didn’t say anything about it.
He moved the chairs that Maria and Jacob had sat on to the corner of the room and asked Larissa,”
Do you want to take a bath now?”
Larissa nodded. She had been in bed all day, and although the bruises and wounds looked terrifying,
they didn’t hurt as much as yesterday. She got off the bed effortlessly and noticed Kevan’s hand
reaching out toward her. It seemed he was extending her help just now.
“Ah…”Larissa trailed off feeling embarrassed. She didn’t want to dismiss his kindness, so she placed
her hand in his palm and held it
Thank you
She tilted her head, her rosy pink lips were plump, and her eyes glistened like crystal-clear water.
Kevan was stunned: his heart raced without any warning, and he felt his mouth dry up. He wanted to
pull her into his embrace, and fiercely press his lips against hers until she couldn’t help but moan, her
doe eyes wet with tears. But it was just a mere thought. He didn’t dare force himself on her while sober.
At this thought, he wondered if he should thank Karin. Should he ask her to drug him again?
Larissa noticed a change in his expression, and furrowed her brows, wondering what he was thinking.
He was lost in thought for a moment.
“Kevan?” she cautiously called.
Keyan snapped back to reality in an instant. He put on a blank face in an attempt to conceal all kinds of
inappropriate thoughts in his heart. He swallowed hard, and his voice was h oar se as he muttered,
“Let’s go.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe bathroom was larger than a regular ward’s, with facilities just like a home, except for the addition of
some handrails on the wall for patients.
Larissa and Kevan stared at each other in the bathroom.
“Aren’t you going to get out? Larissa asked.

“I’ll help you with your clothes first, then I’ll leave. You can’t move your right arm,” Kevan explained.
He seemed very sincere and trustworthy, which made Larissa hesitate for a moment. He was right, she
could only move her right arm from below the elbow, and it was inconvenient to undress and bathe.
However, it wasn’t impossible to do so.
She held onto the handrail and declined his kindness, saying, “I can manage to undress myself.”
