Sweet Subterfuge

Chapter 130

In the afternoon. Larissa was called into the office by her general manager. To her surprise, Lana was also there.

Lana didn’t greet her warmly or approach her affectionately this time. Instead, she sat on the sofa, wearing a polite smile and exuding an air of elegance. The general manager, still unaware of their relationship, said to Larissa, “I’d like to introduce you to the daughter of Mr. Seymour, the president of Cosmic Entertainment. She’s an esteemed guest at our hotel.”

Larissa nodded and followed Lana’s suit of pretending not to know each other. She greeted politely. “Nice to meet you. Ms. Seymour.”

Lana mimicked her and replied. “Nice to meet you too.”

“Ms. Seymour is from Bartham, and this is her first time in Covenford. She wants to spend a few days here, so please make arrangements to show her around and explore Covenford’s charm for the next two days.” The general manager finally revealed the purpose of calling

Larissa

Larissa had previously thought that Lana was an inexperienced and naive young lady. She hadn’t anticipated Lana using her own status to exert pressure on her through the general manager. It seemed that she needed to reassess Lana as a person.

Since it was a personal request from the general manager. Larissa had no choice but to reluctantly accept the task, saying. “Okay.”

Lana quickly took the opportunity and handed her phone to Larissa. “Let’s exchange phone numbers so it will be easier to keep in touch.”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“Fine,” Larissa reluctantly took out her phone and exchanged contacts with Lana

As soon as Larissa lett, she received a message from Lana.

“Are you mad at me?” Lana asked, followed by a sad emoji,

Larissa glanced at it but didn’t respond.

Not only did Lana fail to read the room, but she also continued to bombard her with a series of messages.

Tm sorry, sis! I just wanted to spend more time with you. I didn’t mean to pressure you!

if you’re unhappy, I can tell Mr. Compton right now that I don’t need you to bring me around Covenlord!

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”

“Please forgive me!

The string of notifications from her phone only made Larissa more annoyed.

She unlocked her phone and replied insincerely. “Im not angry.”

Lana instantly replied. “Really?”

“You’re the best?

“I like you the most! Numerous cute emojis accompanied this message.

Larissa didn’t even bother to read the messages Lana sent. She immediately replied, “Where do you want to go?”

After a short pause, her phone vibrated again, and Lana’s message popped up. Tm line with any arrangements you make.”

It made Larissa’s job easier since Lana had no specific requests.

Larissa searched the internet, found a travel guide for a two–day–one–night itinerary in Covenlord, and sent the link to Lana,

After a few minutes. Lana replied, “Alright. We can follow this itinerary.”

Larissa was about to turn off her phone when she realized Lana was still typing in the chatbox.

Alter a while, she received another message. It read, “Lucas said he wants to treat you to dinner tomorrow night. He asks you to bring Mr. Rogers along.”

Larissa fell silent. Lucas‘ persistent pursuit of Kevan was truly remarkable, if it weren’t for the fact that he had been dating Lana for the

past three years, she might have suspected his sexual orientation. However, he was bound to be disappointed this time.

“Mr. Rogers is at Bartham right now,” she replied.
