Wings of Broken Time by Alina Das 378
Chapter 378
After introducing her family, Sapphira turned to the man who had accompanied Larissa. “Master Bryant, thank you so much for your help today.”
“Don’t mention it,” Bryant replied. “As Larissa’s mentor, it’s my duty to protect my student. If anything, I should be thanking you. I’ve heard all about what happened when Larissa came to Regal City. You and Mr. Judson aren’t her birth parents, yet you’ve treated her with such genuine love. You nearly got hurt because of it.”
Sapphira smiled. “You were her mentor, so you of all people should understand. Larissa may not be our biological daughter, but from the moment we met her, she became our daughter for life.”
“I’m relieved to know she has parents she can trust,” Bryant said with a sigh. He then looked at Larissa, his expression fond but reluctant. “Larissa, since things here are settled, I should be getting back. My old lady is waiting for me at home.”
Haskell also smiled gently at Larissa. “I should get back to the office as well.”
“Wait, Haskell,” Larissa said, taking his arm. “I’m taking Bryant home today and won’t be back until tomorrow, so let me treat you now.”
“Alright,” Haskell agreed.
Bryant waved his hand. “Larissa, you don’t need to escort me. Stay here and spend time with your grandparents…”
“Bryant, we live in Regal City,” Gloria interjected. “We can see Larissa whenever we want. But you live so far away, it’s not easy to visit. Please, let her take you home.”
Bryant finally relented. He did want to spend a little more time with Larissa.
Larissa smiled. “Then it’s settled. Bryant, you rest here for a bit. After I treat Haskell and we have lunch, I’ll take you home.”
“Sounds good.”
Larissa had Crispin carry Haskell to her room for the treatment.
As the three of them went upstairs, Bryant couldn’t help but say again, “Mr. and Mrs. Judson, thank you for giving Larissa the parental love she’s always deserved. Even with all the villagers who doted on her, I know what she craved most was the love of a mother and father.”
Hearing this, Sapphira and Neville exchanged a look.
“Bryant, please tell us more about her past,” Sapphira requested softly. “Her father and I want to understand everything she’s been through.”
work Bryant nodded. “Six years ago, my wife went into the mountains to find new specimens for my and was bitten by three venomous snakes. We neutralized the poison, but she was left with lingering side effects. I took the three snakes that bit her and we traveled everywhere, looking for a cure. Eventually, we heard about a famous healer in a place called Spire Village. When we found Larissa,

she was only fourteen, but her medical skill was extraordinary. With just a few silver needles, she completely cured my wife. She refused any payment, asking only for the three small snakes I had captured.”
“I learned that Larissa had a natural affinity for venomous creatures but couldn’t quite control them. As a thank you, I offered to stay and teach her.”
“Over those six years, I often overheard her talking to the snakes and insects.”
