Chapter 507
Larissa asked Aster to call Kevan.
After a while, someone answered the phone.
“Hello?” It was a little girl who answered the phone.
Who else could it be other than Bethany herself?
Asterheld the phone and stared at Larissa helplessly.
Frowning. Larissa ended the call for him.
“Uncle Kevan can’t come tonight because he needs to stay with Bethany.”
Aster was undoubtedly disappointed
Pouting, tears welled up in his eyes.
“Uncle Kevan is a liar!” he said in an aggrieved tone.

Larissa patted his head and pulled him into her embrace.
*she said.
“Uncle Kevan’s not a liar. It’s just that something important came up at the last minute, he probably forgot to inform you, she defended Kevan.
Although she did not want Aster to have unrealistic fantasies about Kevan, at the same time she did not want to shatter Kevan’s perfect image in his heart.
After all Kevan was genuinely fond of Aster.
“If you want to play games, I’ll accompany you.” Larissa made a huge compromise. hoping to cheer him up.
However, Aster showed no gratitude at all. “You’re bad at playing games! I’d rather play by myself.” he remarked scornfully.
Hearing that, Larissa felt like throwing the infuriating kid out of the house.
In the end. Aster could only play alone.
During the game, he sighed countless times. “It would be much better if Uncle Kevan was here!”
Larissa was on the sola, working overtime on her laptop.
She did not pay Aster any mind as she was still upset at his words earlier.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang
Glancing at the time, Larissa realized that it was close to 9 pm.
She couldn’t imagine who would come at this late hour.
Aster immediately threw his game controller down and scrambled to get up from the floor.
“It must be Uncle Kevan! Aster shouted as he ran to the entrance as fast as he could,
Pressing up against the door, he asked, “Who is it?”
