Startled, Larissa almost dropped the shopping bag she was holding.
“Why are you following us?” she demanded, her eyes wide. Larissa raised her voice intentionally to

complex, and I’m going to his place for dinner.”
Larissa exposed his lie with a straight face “Aren’t you cooking steak for dinner tonight?”
Dylan shrugged and pulled out his hands from his pockets.
Showing her his empty palms, he continued, “Can’t you see that I haven’t bought anything?
There’s nothing to eat at home, so I have to have dinner at my friend’s place.”

“Perfect timing.” Dylan grinned. “I’ll go buy the ingredients I need for dinner.”
Exasperated, Larissa halted in her tracks and stood her ground. “That’s enough. I’m not going to buy
anything, and I don’t live in this apartment complex either.”
Staring into Dylan’s eyes, she demanded, “There’s no need to continue pretending. Tell me honestly,

“Fine,” Larissa knew she couldn’t shake him off, so she decided to let him tag along.
When they arrived at the apartment’s main entrance, she said to Dylan, “Thank you. You can go back
now.”
“Alright.” Dylan nodded, but he didn’t go home just yet. “You two should head inside first.”
Waving at Aster, he said, “Goodbye!”
Aster responded innocently, “Goodbye, Uncle Dylan!”
Once Larissa and Aster disappeared behind the door, Dylan took out his phone and made a call.
Larissa is finally back, and she brought a child with her.”
Because of Dylan’s interference, Larissa wasn’t able to buy most of the items on her shopping list,
except for milk and oatmeal.
Naturally, she couldn’t make a lavish meal for Aster as planned. She poured milk into the oatmeal and
heated the bowl in a microwave for three minutes.
“There’s only oatmeal for dinner,” she apologized to Aster, “I will bring you out to eat something
delicious tomorrow.”
Aster scooped a spoonful of oatmeal and put it in his mouth, smiling sweetly at Larissa as he did so.

the laborious process of birth; she didn’t feel any aversion to Aster when he was finally born.
Day by day, as he grew in height and stature, Larissa realized that she couldn’t live without him
Thanks to Wendy, who had stopped her in time, Larissa was so grateful that she didn’t insist on getting
her own way. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have experienced the happiness she enjoyed right now.
On her first day of work, Larissa was worried about leaving Aster alone at home, so she brought him to
the hotel.
It was her first visit to the hotel. Upon arrival, she discovered that the hotel was adjacent to Microworks
Corporation’s headquarters in Bartham.
“What a coincidence,” she thought to herself.
A group of people was waiting for her at the hotel entrance. As soon as Larissa got out of the car, they
quickly flocked around her.
“Hello, Ms. Seymour!”
“Welcome, Ms. Seymour!”
