Wings of Broken Time by Alina Das 376
Chapter 376
He knew it… he had brought all of this upon himself.
And he knew that no matter what he said now, Larissa would never believe him. She would never forgive him. He couldn’t even dare to hope that she would one day acknowledge him as her brother again.
All he could do was dedicate the rest of his life to making it up to her.
With this newfound resolve, Leopold turned his gaze to Honora, still lying crumpled on the floor. He strode over to her and stomped down hard on her hand, grinding his heel into her knuckles.
“You evil woman,” he seethed. “I’m not done with you. I will torment you for the rest of your life. I will make you watch how happy my sister becomes while you live in misery! This is what you owe her!”
Honora screamed, but this time, no one came to her aid. The pain, physical and emotional, was too much to bear. She finally succumbed and passed out.
Vivica looked at Honora’s broken form, then at her husband, her eyes filled with despair. No matter how much they tortured Honora, it wouldn’t change the fact that their lives were in ruins. “Paxton, what do we do now?”
Paxton had seen the true extent of his daughter’s ruthlessness and power. If she said they had to leave, they had to leave. Antagonizing her further would only make it impossible to ever win her forgiveness.
“We move out first,” Paxton decided. “We’ll figure out the rest later.”
As long as they were alive, there was still a chance.
After leaving the West Villa, Avril and her friends wisely took their leave. Larissa made sure to tell Avril they were free to gossip about the Judson family’s drama as much as they liked. Avril understood perfectly: spread the news of Paxton’s downfall and make his family the laughingstock of high society.
Haskell didn’t leave. He followed Larissa to the East Villa, explaining that he had come for two reasons: to watch the show, and to formally meet her family.
As soon as they entered, Gloria smiled warmly at Larissa. “Sapphira is so lucky to have a treasure like you for a daughter.”
Ziggy, recalling Larissa’s composure at the West Villa, added, “Indeed. That girl is something special. She has what it takes to achieve great things. I certainly wasn’t that poised at her age.”
Sapphira stood and, after a nod to Haskell, took Larissa’s hand. “Larissa, these are your maternal grandparents.”
Larissa smiled sweetly at them. “Grandpa, Grandma.”
“Yes, yes, good girl,” Gloria beamed. “Every time Sapphira calls, she can’t stop praising you–how strong, independent, and talented you are. She was right.”

She then gave her husband a knowing look.
Ziggy immediately picked up his cue. “Larissa, we saw what happened with the Lincoln family today. Your mother told us the reason. With their influence, they probably won’t let this go. But don’t you worry. The Turner family may not be as powerful as the Lincolns in Regal City, but that doesn’t mean we can’t protect you.”
Gloria looked at Haskell. “Besides, you have the Palmers on your side, don’t you? The Lincolns will have to think twice before they make a move against you.”
Haskell understood their meaning perfectly. They wanted a public promise from him, in front of the Turner family, that he would protect Larissa.
In truth, even without their prompting, he would have done everything in his power to keep her safe. It wasn’t just about their engagement; he was genuinely in love with her.
