Chapter 615

Because Kevan was eager to see Larissa, he didn't bother adjusting to the time difference. After a quick shower, he headed straight to the hospital where Lewis was waiting for him at the entrance.

It had been several months since they had last seen each other, but Lewis hadn't changed much. He still had that serious and business-like demeanor, but his gaze had softened a bit. They exchanged greetings. Kevan wasted no time in asking, "How's Larissa doing?"

"She's recovering well. She can walk on her own now." Lewis replied.

Larissa received more attentive care than before being in Gary's territory, leaving her with little to worry about. Naturally, her health was improving day by day, though the only downside was that she had gained some weight due to the lack of exercise. Kevan noticed this the moment he saw her.

Compared to the last time he saw her, she looked healthier and fuller. She was no longer the frail skeletal woman he'd known, Kevan's heart eased, but at the same time, there was a twinge of bitterness-she could thrive even without him by her side.

As he walked in, she was being assisted by a caretaker, practicing her walking. She was unaware that Kevan was coming and thought it was Gary who opened the door.

"Your meeting ended early today?" she asked. As she lifted her head and smiled, she locked eyes with a pair of deep eyes. She was momentarily stunned.

Kevan smiled as he took a few strides to her side, gesturing for the caregiver to let him take over the support.

The sensation of his touch on her arm felt so real that she finally regained her composure. She licked her lips and asked in a slightly uneasy manner. "Why are you here?

to talk to Uncle Gary about something, Kevan answered.

"I came to see you and Aster. Also, I need to talk to Uncle

Larissa's heart started to race involuntarily, and her cheeks flushed slightly. She sat down at the edge of the bed and pointed to the couch

opposite her before saying. "Take a seat."

However, he chose to sit right next to her. His eyes were fixated on her as if he couldn't get enough of looking at her. These few months were insignificant compared to the six years without her, but his yearning for her far surpassed that time, and now, it overflowed.

Larissa blushed even more under his intense gaze, feeling unsure of where to put her hand and feet. She awkwardly smoothed out her hair and tried to break the silence. "Has Lana been found yet?" Since returning to Aldovia. Gary no longer restricted her from using her phone. She had access to the Internet and was aware of almost everything happening back home. "Yeah," Kevan nodded.

"What will happen to the case then?"

"We can only proceed if we replace Lana. But it's also possible that she's no longer with us." Kevan's tone remained calm. "This outcome is

probably the best for you and her.

Larissa had already heard about the turmoil in the Seymour family. Other than feeling that they got what they deserved, she didn't have many other thoughts-Gary was so worried that she would leel guilty about what had transpired.

"That's true." She recalled Lana's hysterical appearance at Roland's memorial and the mental health evaluation provided by the Seymour family.

Now that the family was facing such a huge crisis-Xavier and Yvelle couldn't even protect themselves, let alone Lana-Lana's life would still be challenging if she survived.
