Chapter 727 “What?” Larissa noticed the smirk on Wendy’s lace and took a step back. “Wouldn’t you be annoyed it Kevan could comfort Aster with just a few words? After all you spent so much time trying to comfort him,” Wendy tried to provoke her, but Larissa remained silent Wendy patted her on the shoulder and sighed. “It’s understandable that you wouldn’t want the father and son to reunite. If Aster leams that Mr. Rogers is his biological father, your position in this family would be jeopardized.” Larissa couldn’t stop herself from sneering. “No way! I believe that my son loves me the most!” She was Aster’s favorite person, there was no doubt about that!”

After half an hour, Aster emerged from his bedroom with Larissa’s phone in his hand. He had stopped crying. Even his hiccups had ceased. His breathing had returned to normal Still Aster’s eyes were completely swollen from crying, and he could only see through narrowed slits. It was quite a comical sight. Larissa wanted to laugh, but she held herself back. “Are you done with your call? She opened her arms wide and embraced him. “Yes. Daddy told me not to mind what Freddy said because he is a dummy!” Larissa reprimanded him, “Even if Freddy said something unpleasant to you, you can’t call him a dummy. That’s rude, you know?” “But Daddy said that Freddy ran his mouth without understanding the full situation. Only a dummy would do that!” Aster relorted. “I would never be like him-running my mouth without thinking twice!” Larissa was rendered speechless. “I have a dad. I have the best dad in the whole wide world! Daddy said that when he has time, he will invite Freddy to go to Disnieland together. I want to show him how good my daddy is and make him realize how foolish he was!” Aster declared, Although it seemed like he was speaking to Larissa, it was also for his own sake.

Larissa felt a migraine coming on. If things continued like this, Kevan would turn Aster into a tiny version of himself. Just thinking about it scared her. Still looking at Aster’s proud face, she couldn’t bring herself to correct him. Since the trip to Disnieland fell through, Larissa and Wendy tried to make it up to Aster. They brought him to a “Winter Wonderland” themed park in a nearby shopping mall, The theme park wasn’t large. It had artificial snow-covered grounds, ice castles, and slides made from ice. It was set up exactly like scenes from the movie itsell. Actors dressed up as movie characters walked around the park. Both adults and children took pictures with the actors while bundled up in thick down jackets. pin Since Larissa had issues with her leg, she sat outside on her own. Feeling bored, she browsed Facebook on her phone. Larissa was surprised to read today’s headlines, “Winston Hotel in Bartham City Closed for Investigation.” Although she had resigned from Winston, the Winston Hotel In Bartham City was a place where she had spent a lot of time and effort in. With a heavy heart, she clicked on the link and skimmed through the article. According to the news report, the Winston Hotel was forced to shut down because of a simple reason. They had violated fire safety codes. Still Larissa had inspected every detail of the hotel. It was impossible for the Winston Hotel to have violated fire safety codes.
