Sweet Subterfuge

Kevan fried the marinated beet. He also cooked the prawns that had been cleaned. Then, he coated the prawns with a sauce
made from Greek yogurt and lemon juice. He also prepared the sweet potatoes and quickly whipped up some scrambled eggs.
The spaghetti was ready by then, so he served two helpings and brought them to Aster, Aster was already eagerly waiting in the
dining room
“Whoa!” Aster couldn’t help but drool, but he refrained from picking up his utensils until Kevan sal down.
“Daddy, you should go ahead and eat first!” Although he was speaking to Kevan, his eyes were locked on the mouthwatering
skewered meat.
Kevan smiled and picked up a piece of skewered meat, placing it on Aster’s plate. “Give it a try and tell me how it tastes.”
The meat had cooled down by then. Aster grabbed the skewer and took a big bite. The seasoning smeared all over his mouth.
However, he seemed oblivious to it. With a big thumbs up, he exclaimed. “This is the most delicious thing I’ve ever eaten!”
Even though it sounded like he was buttering Kevan up in an exaggerated way, it still pleased Kevan.
“If you like I’ll make it for you again in the future,” Kevan promised.
Aster jumped up with excitement and hugged Keven’s neck, leaving an olly kiss on Kevan’s cheek. “You’re the best, Caddy!”
Kevan wasn’t bothered at all instead, he smiled and asked. “Do you love Daddy more than Mommy?”
Aster responded calmly. “I love you both the same! You’re both my favorite people!”
Kevan patted his head and praised. “That’s my boy. Remember to say these things in front of Mommy too, okay?”
Earlier. Aster had asked him a question he couldn’t give a definite answer to. He didn’t even know when he would be able to win
Larissa over. So he could only tell Aster, you can make Mommy believe that I can be a good daddy to you, maybe she’ll accept
me sooner. Then, I can truly become your real daddy.”
To Larissa. Aster was the most important person. She always tried her best to fulfill his requests. It was just that Kevan wasn’t
sure it she would compromise on this matter.
Aster enjoyed every dish Kevan made. Together, they cleared all the plates.

After the meal, Aster lay on the couch, holding his round tummy. Meanwhile, Kevan washed the dishes and then took out some
fruit from the fridge. He brought them into the living room after carefully washing and cutting them into pieces.
Although Aster claimed he was full, he quickly changed his mind. He crawled over to Kevan and used a fork to eat a strawberry.
Immediately, he lasted the sweet juice. His eyes squirted with enjoyment.
Kevan couldn’t help but let out a laugh at the sight. He grabbed a tissue and gently wiped the red juice from Aster’s mouth, his
eyes filled with tenderness.
When Wendy entered the room, this was the scene that greeted her. It was so heartwarming that she didn’t want to disturb them,
Eventually, Kevan noticed her presence. Although he had never met Wendy in person, he had a thick stack of information about
her in his drawer. So, recognizing her wasn’t a difficult task for him.
“Hello, Ms. Simmons. You’re back early today,” Kesan greeted her with a courteous smile.
According to Aster, Wendy usually got home around 6 pm, but today, it wasn’t even 5 pm,
Originally, Kevan had planned to leave before Wendy arrived, as he wasn’t particularly lond of Interacting with strangers, even If
she was Larissa’s close friend and Aster’s godmother. However, since they bumped into each other, he fell Il was only right to be
friendly and make a good impression.
