Chapter 459

“Really?” The hope in Aster’s heart was lit up by him once more.

“Of course, it’s true!” Kevan answered seriously, and Aster rolled about in bed with joy.

Uncle Kevan was not married, which meant that his gedmother was wrong. It also meant that when she

said that Urcle Kevan was not Mommy’s type, it might not be true either. So, there was a chance that

Mommy might like Uncle Revan!

Having gained this conclusion, Aster felt a strong drive to match his mommy and Uncle Kevan together

at once.

But no!

He had to be calm and carry on his plan very, very carefully, and he could not let anyone know either.

The bodyguard sent by headquarters arrived early in the morning the next day and was already waiting

on the lowest floor of Larissa’s home. The driver who had originally been sending her to and from work

was replaced by another bodyguard too.

The unease in Larissa’s heart lessened some. But as long as Ruby was not convicted, she would not

be able to relax entirely.

When Ruby was taken away by the police yesterday, it caused quite a commotion in the hotel.

Although the staff was not entirely sure of what happened, they were able to figure out that was related

to Larissa and Aster through hearsay. Therefore, when Larissa appeared at the hotel with Aster, she

received a good deal of sympathetic greetings from the crowd.

She barely managed to enter her office, and she massaged her facial muscles which were still from

smiling so much. She had not yet sat for long when she got a call from the front desk and was informed

that two policemen were looking for her.

Security had already told her yesterday that the police would find her today to get a statement from her.

So. Larissa quickly invited them upstairs, However, when the policemen arrived, they asked Aster and

not her instead, “Hey, kid. Could you tell us in detail what exactly happened yesterday morning?”

Larissa frantically stepped in front of Aster. “Shouldn’t the surveillance footage have it all?” Aster was

still too young. She did not want him to suffer secondary damage by remembering the incident.

Besides, she heard from security that the footage had already been submitted to the police as

evidence.

“Your guest rooms do not have surveillance cameras. The police were helpless too. “We have to be

completely certain of what Ruby Cole did to your son when she brought him into the room. Because

according to her and he lawyer, she coincidentally ran into your son, who was lost. So, she brought him

back to her own room first. She originally wanted to call you to get you to pick up your son, but before

she could, you barged in with a group of people and even beat her up. Now she’s trying to counter-sue

you for committing intentional assault.”

Larissa did not know that Ruby’s shamelessness had reached such extreme levels.

Sputtering out a laugh of furious disbelief, Larissa said. “My son comes with me to work every day. The

hotel is just like his home, how

could he be lost?

Aster retorted too. “I wasn’t lost! It was Bethany’s mommy who took me away forcefully just came out

from the toilet, and she rushed over to cover my mouth and took me away! Then she took me to her

room and started bealing me. She beat me so hard it hurt, and she said that I was a “b astard, a ‘stroke

of bad luck for making her not able to see Bethany, I was so scared that I hid under the table, so she

started kicking me. I begged her not to, but she didn’t listen As he spoke, he began to cry.

Larissa pulled him into her arms and comforted him gently. “It’s alright Aster. The pad woman has been

taken away by the good police. She will not beat you again!”

Aster bit his lip, hurt, even as he buried his face into her chest.

Larissa looked up and locked eyes with the policemen. “You heard my son.” She led the hem of Aster’s

T-shirt. “All these bruises are evidence of Ruby’s assault on my son.”
