Larissa's Game of Thrones (Larissa) novel Chapter 84

“Speaking of which, is anyone else missing?”

“Yeah, who’s not here yet?”

“The Palmers haven’t arrived,” Honora said smoothly. “And neither have the Dillons.”

The Palmers were the most powerful family in Regal City, and the Dillons were nearly as influential. Their presence was highly anticipated.

At the mention of the Palmers, the gossip mill started churning again.

“Honora, is it true that Haskell is really crippled?”

“I heard he can’t have children, either. Is that true?”

Leopold, not wanting to put Honora on the spot, answered for her. “His legs are paralyzed. As for whether he can have children, we wouldn’t know.”

“So… Honora, what about your engagement to him…?”

“The engagement between Honora and Haskell was called off,” Leopold announced, deliberately emphasizing his next words. “Because my newly returned cousin volunteered to marry him.”

The crowd exchanged knowing glances. “Well, with her background, marrying Haskell is probably the best she can hope for.”

Just then, a stir at the entrance drew everyone’s attention.

The Palmers had arrived. Every head in the ballroom turned.

“What’s going on? Even Zoltan Palmer himself is here!”
