âIâm here to clear up the misunderstanding between you two.â Kevan said.
Wendyâs heart sank,
âMisunderstanding? Thereâs no misunderstanding between me and Larissaâ she sneered
Kevan lock two steps fonward and sat down on the sala.
âDo you want to come and sit? Arenât you pregrar1? Standing for a long time will make your feet ache,â
he asked Wendy amicably.
âI have no need for your concem!â
Perhaps because of Wendyâs bias, everything Kevar did reeked of an ulterior molive
âAlright then, you can stand there.â
Kevan didnât insist. He wasnât going to force his kindness on someone who didnât appreciate t
âI heard that you want Larissa to drop the case. Kevan got straight to the point.
âWrong, itâs you who should drop the case.â Wendy stared at Kevan pointedly
Since Kevan was the one who reported to the police, he should be the one to drop the case.
âEdmund shouldnât go to jail for something he didnât do,â Wendy continued.
âSomething he didnât do? Tell me, what did Edmund not do? Did he not tell you the truth, or was he not a good person?â Kevan raised his
eyebrows with interest.
He did not try to hide his disdain.
Wendyâs temper rose when she heard his words. âThe person who did not tell me the truth was you, Mr. Rogers. Did you enjoy manipulating us like pawns in your hands? Does it give you a sense of accomplishment?â
âI donât care if you donât believe me.â
Compared to Wendyâs hostility, Kevan seemed quite at ease.
From start to finish, he appeared relaxed.
He did not seem to be affected negatively by Wendyâs harsh remarks.
âBut Larissa has been your best friend for more than a decade, Do you think she would hurt you?â
Kevanâs words pierced Wendyâs heart.
She had been practic
She had been grappling with this thought and questioning hersell about this the whole day.
âShe probably feels that doing this wonât harm me,â Wendy argued stubbornly.
Larissaâs intentions were to protect Kevan, herself, and Wendy.
However, that was based on the premise that Edmund was a sc umbag that cheated on her.
Wendy questioned Kevan, âHave you ever considered that you and Larissa might be mistaken In your judgment of Edmund?
*After spending considerable time with Edmund, I know his character. He is not as despicable as Larissa depicted.â
Kevan chuckled and covered his mouth with his hand.
âHow long have you been with Edmund? Two weeks? Or a month? Is one month enough for you to understand a person completely? You have been best friends with Larissa for ten years, but you still donât fully know her yel.â
Wendy was defeated by Kevanâs logic. Even after wracking her brains, she couldnât think of a reply.
Kevinâs expression turned serious again.
reach a dead end, you will realize your mistakes and tum back.
âAlas, Larissa canât bear to leave you alone, so I had no choice but to intervene. If you have some time, I would like to introduce you to some people. Of course, if you are unwilling, just pretend I never said anything.â
Wendy thought for a long time.
âIâll meet them! Iâm not afraid of you!â she said, gritting her teeth.
After all, he wouldnât dare harm her.
Nevertheless. Wendy chose to sit in the backseat when she got into the car.
She kept her eyes fixed on Kevan, and her hand remained on the door handle the entire time.
If there was the slightest hint of any danger, she would threaten to jump out and force him to stop the car.
However, Kevan didnât say a word or do anything to her.
He drove quietly without even giving her another glance.
The car stopped at the entrance of a hotel.
Wendy knew this hotel it was the one that Kevan used to frequent.
People were coming and going in the hotel which bolstered Wendyâs courage.
She straightened her back and followed behind Kevan, her heels clicking confidently as she walked.
