My Sweet Wife

Chapter 349 – A Thorn in Her Heart, Pricking Her Heart and Mouth with a Twitching Offense of Pain



After making the call, Larissa came out of the radio station.

Just as she stepped out of the radio station she saw a vehicle in front of the station honking at her before it slowly drove towards her.

“Larissa,” Cleo said as she lowered her window and poked her head out of the car window to look at Larissa.

Larissa was slightly surprised, “What brings you here?”

She was here taping the show and hadn’t told Cleo about it, it seemed like it was her birth mother Celena who told Cleo again. She had seen Celena before the taping and Phoebe had mentioned something about taping the show.

“Are you okay?” Cleo got out of the car, his eyes full of concern for her, he had rushed here as soon as he knew about the day.

After a pause, Cleo spoke again, “Aunt Celena told me. That’s why I was worried about you.”

Celena had figured out who and what friends Larissa had around her from the time she found Larissa and Larissa recognized her, and she knew that Larissa’s best friend was Cleo.

And Celena is able to see that Cleo is interested in Larissa, she is not against it but somewhat supportive. After all, she’s watched her daughter and Nathanael Lora together for so many years, and they’ve never been together. Although she wants her daughter to marry a rich one like Nathanael Lora, she also wants her daughter to keep a spare tire.

That way, when tired and old people wanted someone to marry, there would still be someone beside them.

“I’m fine.” Larissa looked at Cleo with a slight smile on her face.

Cleo presses her uneasily, “So what are you going to do about it? Aunt Celena said Uncle only gave you a one day deadline.”

“Did she tell you if she wants to give me the stake or not?” The ‘she’ in Larissa’s mouth meant Celena.

Surely Cleo could understand.

After spending so much time together, after all, having grown up together, Cleo understood Larissa’s nature. He gazed at her for half a second before speaking, ”Aunt Celena is bent on counting on you to get The Elbert family’s company, The Elbert family’s everything, from Uncle Elbert, where would she be willing to give what she paid for, to Uncle Elbert. I think you know all about Aunt Celena’s mind.”

“Yeah, there’s no way she’d be willing to take that money out.” A hint of coolness spread across the corners of Larissa’s mouth.

After a pause, Larissa added, “Then wait until I cut ties with The Elbert family and then have it publicized by my own father that he doesn’t want me as a daughter. And then ruin the person I am now, ruin my future.”

She’s a star, her reputation is more important than normal people, and when her reputation is tarnished, her future is ruined, and she even suffers from the hostility of netizens.

Just by thinking about it, anyone would know about this powerful relationship, there’s no way Celena wouldn’t know about it, but there’s no way that Celena would say yes to betting this breath with Elbert, Ken.

Cleo also knows the impact on Larissa, and he looks at her worriedly, asking, “So what are you going to do?”

Larissa looks to Phoebe who is off to the side and calls out, “Phoebe.”

“Ah! Yes.” Phoebe, who had been keeping her head down as she pretended she hadn’t heard anything from the sidelines, suddenly reacted with a shock at being called.

“Give me the car keys and send me the address of the shoot, I’ll rush to the shoot first, I can’t delay the start of the program.” Seeing Phoebe’s eyes doubtful, Larissa added, “You rush back to my place first, take care of my house, and notify my company’s side, don’t disclose my schedule to my family.”

After saying these words, Larissa took out her cell phone and blacked out all of her family’s numbers on her phone.

Seeing Larissa act like this, Phoebe was anxious in her heart and hurriedly responded, “Uh, okay, I’ll take care of it right now. Then, Sister Larissa, your luggage, I will have the company side send someone to send it over to you tomorrow.”

“Uh, good.”

Doing this, even if this home was something she directly didn’t want, none of her so-called parents really cared about her anyway.

Looking at Phoebe answering the voice and leaving, Cleo retracted his line of sight, he wrinkled his eyebrows, “Larissa … you are severing your relationship with them, they can’t find you, they won’t be messing with you, but the matter of severing your relationship, as long as it gets out, it will have a serious negative impact on you .”

“I don’t have time to think about that for now, I have to rush to work.” Larissa wasn’t going to continue this conversation with Cleo.

Things couldn’t be kept under wraps, and instead of worrying about her being cut off and the news getting out, she was better off settling down and making money first, nothing was as good as the money that came into her hands.

Seeing Larissa like this, Cleo couldn’t say anything else, but still didn’t feel comfortable with her, “I’ll walk you there.”

After a pause, he added, “Rush over tonight, you’re going to start shooting tomorrow, I’ll drive you so you can rest for a while.”

What he said was also true, so Larissa didn’t reject his good intentions.

“Then I’ll trouble you.”

Larissa sat in the co-pilot’s seat, and her entire body took on a vacant state, and just by looking at her, one could tell that she was permeated with a sense of exhaustion.

Cleo, who was in the driver’s seat, started the car, and it drove slowly.

Nathanael Lora drove down to the radio station just as their car was leaving, he glanced at the time and called Larissa.

Larissa on the other end of the line didn’t answer. He called Phoebe again.

“Phoebe, is Larissa finished recording the show?”

“It’s finished recording. President Nathanael are you picking up Sister Larissa. Sister Larissa she should just be driving to the show right now. There’s a reality show that’s traveling to a foreign country. The shooting starts tomorrow morning and Larissa has picked up the program. I don’t think Sister Larissa has had a chance to tell you yet.”

“Sister Larissa has had a lot on her plate lately and is in a bad mood.”

Nathanael Lora’s brow jumped, worry in her narrow eyes, “In a bad mood? Why would you be in a bad mood?”

Phoebe on the other end of the phone stammers, wanting to say something finally opens her mouth, “It’s all Larissa Sister’s personal matters, Larissa Sister didn’t tell you, so it’s not good for me to say anything more here.”

“But, Sister Larissa is really too pitiful. Her birth mother bought The Elbert family’s shares, and Sister Larissa’s father told Sister Larissa to return the shares to him, or he would sever his relationship with Sister Larissa. But that share was bought by Sister Larissa’s birth mother, it’s not in her name, she doesn’t even know about it, it has nothing to do with her.”

Truly speechless.

Nathanael Lora’s face turned cold, lifting her lips and asking, “Send me the address of the program Larissa is attending.”

“President Nathanael, there is no fixed location for the shooting of this program, even if the address is sent to you, you might not be able to find Sister Larissa.”

Indeed this is a problem, Nathanael Lora wanted to say let’s cancel Larissa’s program, but was a little hesitant, after all, it was Larissa herself who wanted to go, while he was hesitating, on the other end of the phone, he heard Phoebe speaking again, “This reality show is quite good, it’s just a publicly funded trip, Larissa sis traveling abroad is good. It’s good for Larissa to travel abroad to get away from all these things. Maybe when Larissa comes back in a month, they won’t mess with her anymore.”

Letting Larissa go out for a break was good, he came to solve this matter, he really didn’t expect that there were people who gave Larissa a hard time and threatened to sever the father-daughter relationship! Larissa who has always been as strong as steel in front of him, never revealing half a bit of vulnerability, has given him the illusion that no one can bully her.

Turns out she gets bullied too, she just never told him about it.

“So you say.”

After the call with Phoebe, Nathanael Lora got another call from home, from Nathanael’s mother, saying that the baby had a fever and that he should rush back to check on her.

Nathanael Lora was in an agitated mood, anxious to see Larissa, and when he received this call from Nathanael’s mother, he hung up without saying a word.

After dialing Larissa for the nth time, Larissa answered on the other end of the line.

“What took you so long to answer the phone?” Nathanael Lora asked as soon as the call was answered, without waiting for the person on the other end of the line to speak.

Larissa fell silent and said, “The phone was muted, I didn’t hear it clearly just now.”

It wasn’t all because the phone was muted that she waited until now to answer it. It was also because she hadn’t figured out how to tell Nathanael Lora when she suddenly had to go outside to record a reality show; she hadn’t told him where she was going before, so she wasn’t in the habit of reporting her whereabouts yet.

“Why didn’t you call me to tell me when you were going out to film?” Nathanael Lora’s voice was clearly tinged with displeasure.

When he heard Phoebe say that she was going to shoot abroad right now, his first reaction was surprise, and then dismay, dismay to the point that his heart was clogged up and displeased.

Larissa: “I’ve just been recording the program, I didn’t have time.”Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

“Where are you now?” Nathanael Lora asks again.

Larissa glanced out the window, “I’m on my way to the airport, I’m almost there.”

“Just give me a minute, I’ll be there soon. You’re not leaving until I get there, do you hear me?”

“I may not be able to wait, the time I booked my flight, and boarding time is almost here.”

Nathanael Lora’s anger raged again as soon as she heard Larissa say this, “You’re trying to meet me before you leave and you don’t even want me to give you a ride?”

Not waiting for Larissa on the other end of the phone to say anything, Nathanael Lora spoke again, “Larissa, did you take this show because of Ewenny? Are you …”

“No.” Without waiting for him to finish his sentence, Larissa interrupted, “I just simply want to make money. And I’m an entertainer, these are my jobs, it’s like you go to work at a company, it’s normal.”

Say anything to Larissa about any topic and she can handle it with ease, only not about Ewenny.

Ewenny is the white moon of Nathanael Lora’s heart. It was a thorn in the side of Larissa’s heart that stung her to the core.

Nathanael Lora listened to her words and thought for a moment before speaking again, “Larissa, I owe it to Ewenny to take care of her …”

“I have something on my side, so I’ll leave it at that for now.” Larissa, on the other end of the phone, hurriedly said, and hung up.

“Wait …”

Hearing the mechanical sound of the phone on the other end of the line hanging up, Nathanael Lora furrowed his brows. He wanted to explain clearly to Larissa, but she didn’t give him a chance to do so, as if she didn’t want to hear him mention Ewenny.
