Sweet Subterfuge
Chapter 7
“What the hell do you mean?” Larissa was no longer able to keep calm, and she leaped to her feet, scaring the waiter who had brought her drink over.

On the top of the first page, bold letters announced the document to be an agreement for the gifting of property. Larissa’s gaze stopped at the title for two seconds before she began reading quickly—
Gifter: Larissa Seymour (hereinafter referred to as Party A”)
Giftee: Travis Hardy (hereinafter referred to as Party B)

In fact, there was a triumphant smirk on his face that he could not hide. He turned to the last page of the document and pushed it toward Larissa again. His index finger pointed at the place
