Larissa's Game of Thrones (Larissa) novel Chapter 100

“You have to admire his nerve. He just got punished by Kiernan, and he’s already back for more.”

“That’s just Leopold. He’s always been wild. I have to admit, I kind of like it.”

In the center of the crowd, Leopold was extending his hand to Larissa in a grand, formal invitation. Just as everyone expected her to refuse, she smiled and calmly placed her hand in his.

A collective gasp went through the room.

“What’s going on? She actually accepted?”

“And with Leopold, of all people!”

“This is going to be a disaster! I can’t wait to see how he humiliates her on the dance floor.”

Finley watched from the sidelines, unfazed. He knew this had been Larissa’s idea.

“You’re right,” she said, looking up at Draven with a dazzling smile. “You are the more capable one. I’m sure you will be the future leader of the Palmer family.”
