Chapter 224
Larissa was captivated as she looked at the selfies, feeling her heart racing.
“How do they look? Are they good?” Kevan asked, leaning in closer to get a better view of the photos
on the phone. His warm breath brushed against her face, tickling her senses.
The instant she realized the proximity and her disarray, she quickly moved a foot away, trying to
distance herself from his embrace. Only then did her heartbeat gradually return to normal
“They turned out great,” she replied nervously, avoiding his gaze. Despite noticing her reaction,
Kevan remained composed. He smiled and said, “That’s good.”

sitting beside her. She selected one of the photos Kevan took and uploaded it with the marriage
certificate to her Facebook post, restricting its visibility to Lana alone. Accompanied by the caption,
“We’re married!” Larissa concluded with a cute emoji to add to the effect.
Kevan watched as she made the post on her Facebook, yet he couldn’t locate it on his own feed no
matter how many times he refreshed it. Gradually, a thought began to form in his mind. “Did you block
me?‘ His face darkened, and his tone turned unpleasant.
Larissa was momentarily stunned before realizing what his words meant. “No, I adjusted the privacy
setting so that only Lana can see my post.
Kevan had mentioned keeping their marriage a secret from everyone except their families, and she
needed a way to inform the Seymour family. However, this frustrated Kevan a bit. He also wanted to
post on his Facebook and tell the whole world about their marriage, but it wasn’t possible
“Delete it and repost it so that I can see it… and include Dylan in your privacy setting too,” he said.
At least in that case, he would have the illusion that she was sharing this “good news‘ with everyone if
he could see her post. It would help him deceive himself. Since his request wasn’t unreasonable, she
promptly fulfilled it. Upon seeing the post, he immediately liked it and was followed by Dylan.
It took a while before Lana messaged her. “Larissa, did you really marry Mr. Rogers?”
“Yeah.” Larissa even took a screenshot of the 20 million dollar deposit message and sent it to Lana

boasted.
In the end, Lana didn’t reply, leaving Larissa somewhat disappointed.
Around 6 pm, Kevan came knocking on the door. He was dressed neatly, even his hair was
meticulously groomed. “Get ready. We’re going out for dinner,” he said. When Larissa moved in, she
inspected his refrigerator and discovered it contained only bottled water and beer. She had planned to
organize things and go grocery shopping but got busy and forgot about it until now. It was already late,
and the chances of finding high–quality groceries were slim. So, going out for dinner was their only
option.
“Alright.” She grabbed her jacket next to her and put it on. She ran her hand through her hair at couple
of times before saying, “Let’s go.”
He gazed at her for a few seconds, his mouth slightly opening as if he wanted to say something. But in
the end, he remained silent. He turned around and let out a soft sigh when Larissa couldn’t
