Chapter 291
At 8.30pm. Kevanâs two uncles hid farewell and left conscientiously.
After seeing of the quests. Anthony said to Kevar, âCome with me to the study. There was a forbidding tone to his voice,
Violet took Larissa upstairs. She opened a door and said, âThis is Kewanâs room.â
The roomâs decor and style were completely different from Kevanâs house in Covenlord. The overall color scheme leaned towards warm inviting colors, matching the style of this house. It was obviously Kevanâs parentsâ handwerk.
âHe moved cut when he went to university. After that, he rarely came back.â Aint of sadness appeared on Viclelâs lace. âYou also know how much of a clean freak he is. He wouldnât let anyone touch anything in this room. Iâm in charge of cleaning his room alter he llew the coop.â
Looking affectionately at Larissa, she continued, âLiving with him must be tough, right?â
Larissa smiled. âItâs not too bad.â
They didnât live in the same room, so she rarely touched his personal belongings. Besides, Kryan had hired help to come in and clean the house every day, so there was no conflict in that regard.
âThatâs good to hear.â Violet breathed a sigh of relet. I always worry that his OCD will prevent him from getting mamed?
Larissa maintained a tight-lipped smile and expressed no opinion on Kevanâs habits.
Violet brought Larissa on a tour of Kevanâs room. Every corner was marked with traces of his childhood. Each time she picked up an itam. Violet would tel. Larissa the stories behind them in great detal
âThese are the certificates Kevan received in elementary school. He has always been a good student and ranked list in his class every year. We never had to worry about his academics.â
âWhen Kevan was in junior high, he suddenly became obsessed with assembling model kits. He stayed up all night and assembled tons of these models. I thought we had too many of them at home, so I wanted to give some away to his younger cousins. We ended up having a big argument.â
*Kevan has many hobbies, especially in sports. Heâs wel trained in martial arts, wrestling, and boxing.â
âOh, and this photo album Violet stood on her tiptoes and took a photo album from the top shell of Kevanâs bookcase.
She called cut to Larissa excitedly. âCome and take a look!
Both of them stood side by side in front of the bookcase.
Apart from Kevanâs bed, there was only one chair in his room and nothing else to sit on. Furthermore, he hated other people sitting on his bed.
Violet opened the photo album.
The first page had a photo of Kevan when he was just born. He was so tiny, with a wrinkled lace, His handsome features were nowhere to be seen
The next page showed him at a month old, then al three months old
All the photos were arranged in chronological order
As Violet flipped through the pages, Larissa witnessed Kevanâs growth throughout his childhood.
The last few photos were from five years ago as dates were displayed at the bollom right comer.
They were all group photos of Kevan and his three cousins. In one of them, Ruby was present as well.
She stood between Kevan and Cody, with Codyâs arm around her shoulder,
Blushing shyly. Ruby was smiling happily in the photo. On the other hand, Kevan stared at the camera expressionlessly. It was obvious that he was anything but cheerful.
When Violet noticed Larissa staring at this particuar photo, she was reminded of the recent dispute over strawberries.
âLari donât overthink illâ she explained on Kevanâs behall, âKevan and Ruby are just friends. They were close friends back then, but they gradually grew apart after Ruby manied Cody. Kevan might seem like an unfeeling person, but once he thinks of someone as a friend, he will treat that person wholeheartedly. Thatâs how he is with Ruby. Todayâs situation happened because Ruby is a guest, so Kevan gave her the strawberries first.â
âI understand.â Larissa held Violetâs arm and reassured her, âMom, please donât worry. Iâm not that petty.â
