Sweet Subterfuge

Chapter 972

Larissa had not even considered the possibility of Marilyn having a gun.

She had Lewis had considered everything–or so they thought,

They rarely ever saw a normal person holding a gun. They forgot that they were living in a country where guns were everywhere.

To avoid provoking Marilyn, Larissa turned off her phone.

However, Marilyn was still not satisfied.

She rolled down the window and ordered. Throw it out!”

Larissa glanced at her phone, which she’d only begun using a month ago. She gritted her teeth and threw it out.

Marilyn rolled the window back up.

Through the gradually narrowing gap, Larissa could see that the cars behind them had run over her phone.

“Where are you taking me? Larissa asked.

“Don’t you worry about that.” Marilyn was not intending to let her in on the secret. “You’ll know when you get there.”

“I thought we were friends.” Larissa stared at her calmly.

“Friends? Marilyn sneered. “Do friends date ther hiends‘ crushes behind their back and pretend to be their wingwomen all along? Do friends do gross things like that to each other?” Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Her questions bewildered Larissa.

“Since when have I secretly dated someone you liked?”

If her intuition was to be trusted, Marilyn’s crush was Lewis.

Larissa had indeed tried to nudge them toward each other, but she and Lewis were not what Marilyn thought.

“Aren’t you and Lewis dating?” Marilyn asked, hatred filing her eyes.

“No.” Larissa denied at once.

“I have eyes. I can tell that you are!” Marilyn did not bejeve her. “In all the years I’ve worked at Blue Star, Ive never seen Lewis be so friendly with another woman besides you! Yet you care say that you’re not his girlfriend.”

“I’m not Lanssa sighed.

She’d thought of all the possible reasons why Marilyn would hate her, but she hadn’t considered Lewis.

“I’m his cousin. Gary Logan is my father.” Larissa had no choice but to reveal her identity to protect her life.

“What a preposterous lie! Marilyn sneered. “I know them well, I’ve done my research, Gary has never married. There are no women by his side! On top of that, his last name is Logan, and yours is Seymour. Don’t you dare try to lie to me!”

“The person you hired probably only learned about Gary Logan after he founded Blue Star Shipping. Before coming to Aidovla, he got married in Calder. It just didn’t last very long.

“My mother divorced him before I was born, and married again before giving birth to me. That’s why I look my stepfather’s name. I thought you’d understand this.

“Don’t you and your father share different names? Larissa had said that on purpose, However, she didn’t know if that was true or not.

“How how did you know?” Marilyn’s eyes grew wide. Her hands trembled. The steering wheel wobbled, and they nearly crashed into a nearby car.

But she regained her composure quickly. “Have you Investigated me before? No. It must have been a team ellort.” She considered things for a while and pul two and two together. “You, Lewis, and Gary all know that I am Mr. Moorewell’s illegitimate daughter.”

Larissa had not known that.

“That’s right.” She stared right into Marilyn’s eyes. “You are also the one who conspired with Judy and leaked our project.”

Marilyn burst into laughter.

“I thought I could foal Lewis. I’d considered everything. The only thing I hadn’t considered is the fact that you’re Gary’s daughter.”
