Chapter 12

As Dylan had full discretion in handling the divorce, Larissa—despite being the plaintiff—had pretty much nothing to do.

Having two days of leave left, Larissa decided to visit a real estate agency so that she could rent a small apartment near the Regal Dynasty Hotel.

The hotel was located in one of the most prosperous locations in Covenford. The area surrounding it had high-end neighborhoods whose properties cost over ten thousand dollars per square foot. Vacant properties in the area were rare, and even if there were any, they were not available for rent to outsiders.

She could only settle for the next best thing and fixed the location range of her new home within the distance of three train stations, or a half-hour’s driving distance during non-peak hours.

The real estate agent led her around for the whole day to view several properties, but they either had noisy surroundings or were old buildings that lacked elevators.

In other words, none of them satisfied her needs.

Dragging her tired body back to the hotel, Larissa had just laid down on the bed when she got a call from Travis’ brother, Andrew Hardy.

Without even greeting her, he said, “I’m coming to Covenford with Kara next weekend. Book a flight and hotel for us.”

Andrew currently studied at a university in Bartham, and Kara Harper was his girlfriend of two years. Larissa had only interacted with him a few times during her marriage ceremony and this year’s new year celebrations. They were not really familiar with each other. She had never even met Kara before, but frequently heard the Hardys talking about how she was the only daughter of some big shot in Bartham.

So, when Larissa got ordered around like that, she was a bit confused. It was not necessary to approach her for this sort of thing, right?

“You can get your brother to do it for you.”

It seemed that the Hardys had yet to tell him about the divorce between her and Travis. To prevent any complications, Larissa did not mention it either.
