Chapter 562
âI came to send a client to the emergency departmer1. As I was about to leave, Iran into your cousin downstairs. We chatted for a bit, and he mentioned that you were awake, so I came up to visit you.â
Kevan walked past Lewis and came up to Larissaâs bed.
After Lewis tumed him away yesterday. Kevan had no choice but to leave.
Regardless, they were Larissaâs relatives and had the right to be by her side.
Secondly, Kevan wanted to talk to the doctor and understand more about Larissaâs condition.
In other words, this was the first time Kevan had mel Larissa from the moment of the accident until now.
Despite hearing from the doctor that her injures were severe, Kevan couldnât help leeling shocked when he saw her with his own eyes.
The pity he fell for Larissa and the desire to exact revenge on the culprit who did this to her resulted in an inscrutable expression on Kevanâs lace as he lacked at her.
However, Larissaâs attention was drawn to the word âcousinâ that Kevan mentioned earlier.
âMy cousin? Who is it?â The term âcousinâ sounded much more unfamiliar to her than the word âlather.â
Lewis placed the bowl of soup on the bedside table. With a smile, he replied on Kevanâs behall. âItâs me.â
Taken aback, Larissa stared at him in surprise, and then at Gary,
Gary addressed her confusion. âLewis is not only my assistant, but also my nephew.â
Larissa had never imagined that an orphan like herself would suddenly have several relatives appear in the span of one night.
Her emotions at this moment were indescribable.
Lewis opened a bowl of soup. As he was preparing to serve it to Larissa. Kevan intercepted the bowl of soup and the disposable spoon in his hand.
âLet me do it.â Naturally, Kevan sat down on the chair beside Larissaâs bed.
However, before he could even feed Larissa a single mouthful, there was a cough of displeasure from Gary.
Looking up, Kevan noticed the look of disapproval on Garyâs stem face.
âGive it to me.â Gary stretched out his hand.
Even if Kevan was unwilling, he wasnât foolish enough to offend his future father-in-law.
âAlright.â With both hands, he passed the bowl of soup to Gary with a polite smile.
This was the first time Larissa had seen Kevan a:1 so subserviently.
A thought catre into her mind inexplicably. âDid I underestimate Blue Star Shippingâs reputation as an international shipping company?
Gary seemed to treat her like a child, feeding every mouthful of soup slowly and carefully.
With every scoop, he blew on the soup for at least half a minute before bringing the spoon to her mouth.
He was definitely more patient with Larissa than she ever was with Aster.
Larissa knew that this was his way of making up for the past. Although she had no appetite and couldnât eat much, she did her best to consume almost half of the bowl of soup.
As soon as Gary completed his task of feeding Larissa he immediately started showing Kevan the way out. âMr. Rogers, is there anything else? Itâs getting late, so you should return home to rest.â
Kevanâs feelings regarding Larissa were written on his face plainly, even a blind person could see Kevanâs intentions to pursue Larissa.
Having just reunited with his missing daughter, Gary certainly didnât want her to leave him so soon. It was impossible for Gary to act pleasantly to a guy who might take his daughter away from him again.
dearly and shower her with love and happiness as long as possible.
He would give her everything she wanted and make her the happiest person on this planet.
Not only did Kevan understand the underlying meaning of Garyâs words, but he also sensed the hostility Gary directed at him.
However, he had waited downstairs for so long to meet Larissa.
If he were to leave after just half an hour, it would be a great pity.
After all, he didnât know if Gary would allow him to enter the hospital ward again next time.
âAster called me this afternoon,â Kevan brought up the topic of Aster quickly.
As expected, Larissaâs eyes brightened. Her spirits were lifted at the mention of his name.
âWhat happened?â she asked anxiously.
