Chapter 525

Aster froze before his shoulders slumped–but he stopped complaining.

Kevan did not stay tonight. He knew when to take his leave. If he continued to replace excuses to stay, Larissa would definitely resent him. If something happened again in the future, she would not be soft–hearted enough to let him stay anymore.

Without Kevan, Larissa was much more relaxed, but she also felt that something seemed to be missing at the same time. On the other hand, Aster made sure his displeasure was written all over his face. He kept talking about Kevan. When it was time for bed. Larissa had to tell him thrice before he reluctantly returned to his room.

Having not been in the hotel for the whole day. Larissa went to the study to deal with her work that had piled up. When she finished, it was already almost 3 am.

Yawning, she exited the study while stretching, nearly tripping over something that was on the floor. She looked down and realized that it was Cookie lying on the floor near the study’s door, staring at her innocently with big eyes

“Meow,” she called out to her softly, seemingly having used her paws to knead and scratch at her heart, tickling her so much in a strangely comforting way.

Larissa bent down to pick her up, bringing her into her arms, Stroking her fur, Larissa went into the living room and asked. “Where’s Mutin?

She had been in the middle of speaking when she caught sight of Muffin, who was crouched in the cage. The cage door had not been closed, which was why Cookie was able to come out. But Muffin only lifted her head for a moment when she heard Larissa’s voice before dropping back down onto the cage floor, She was dull and lethargic. It was probably because she knew she had done something wrong yesterday.

Aster’s wounds were not serious, and the doctor had already said the chances of vaccinated house cats having any viruses were very low. Larissa never blamed Mullin, but Kevan fell so guilty that he wanted to send the two cals away, Larissa stopped him, however, because she could not bear to part with them, and she believed that Aster would be able to coexist with them harmoniously.

However, the most important thing now was to fix Muttin’s current introversion.

Larissa lured Mullin out of the cage using canned food. While she was eating. Larissa stroked her gently. The thickness of her fur was uneven, Whenever Larissa touched the areas where her fur was sparse, Mullin would shudder rather violently as if her owner’s touch pained her greatly.

Larissa suddenly had the urge to have Bethany beaten up. It was shocking to see that her cruelty even exceeded that of some adults. She could not imagine what sort of abuse Bethany went through prior.

“It’s alright,” Larissa soothed Muffin softly. “No one will mistreat you both anymore.”

After she fed both kittens, Larissa went to Aster’s room.

She originally wanted to see if he was having nightmares like he did last night, but the moment she went in, she heard him mumble, Mommy?” in a very soft voice that was also thick with exhaustion.

“Did I wake you up?” Larissa was a bit annoyed.

Aster was usually a deep sleeper, Noises like opening the door would never wake him up usually

“Did you have a nightmare again?” She swiftly made her way over and sat on the edge of the bed. “No.” Aster sniffled, his voice close to a sobi. “I miss Uncle Kevan. I can’t sleep well without him.”
