\u00a0<\/p>\n
Zoltan collected himself and closed the lid. \u201cAs an elder, I can\u2019t possibly accept such an expensive gift from you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa smiled. \u201cIt\u2019s fine. I have plenty.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Plenty? The word shocked Zoltan all over again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Noticing Zoltan\u2019s reaction, Finley couldn\u2019t help but ask, \u201cMr. Palmer, are those herbs very expensive?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Zoltan shot Finley a disdainful look. \u201cOf course! They are exceedingly rare. My grandson Haskell paid a hundred million at auction for them! And now Larissa is just giving them to me as a gift. Never mind where she got the money; the fact that she has the connections to acquire them at all is extraordinary.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Finley\u2019s face went through a kaleidoscope of emotions. Larissa hadn\u2019t been lying. Those herbs were worth a fortune.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Paxton stared at the box in Zoltan\u2019s hands, a thoughtful expression on his face. His suspicions about his daughter were deepening.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright, this is far enough. Feel free to visit the Palmer estate whenever you have time,\u201d Zoltan said, carefully putting the precious box away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI will,\u201d Larissa replied, then glanced at Haskell.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Haskell met her gaze and held up his phone slightly. \u201cTalk later.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa winked and gave him an \u201cOK\u201d sign.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After the Palmers had departed, Paxton looked at his wife. \u201cVivica, I need to discuss something with Finley. It\u2019s busy here, so you stay and help Neville and Sapphira.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivica understood his meaning immediately: they had to start mending their relationship with their daughter. After tonight\u2019s events, Vivica was more than willing. A daughter this exceptional could not be handed over to Neville and Sapphira. She had to be won back, no\u00a0<\/p>\n
matter the cost.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright,\u201d she agreed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Paxton then turned to his eldest son. \u201cFinley, come with me. We need to talk.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He glanced at his other son and Honora. \u201cLeopold, you and your sister can head home.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa, who was standing nearby with her arms crossed, interjected, \u201cUncle Paxton, don\u2019t forget to properly punish Leopold for trying to humiliate me tonight. Otherwise, I might just have to mention it to my grandpa.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chapter 111\u00a0<\/p>\n
With a faint smile, she turned and walked away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Seeing Larissa heading back toward Sapphir and Neville, who were bidding farewell to the last of the guests, Vivica caught her husband\u2019s eye and hurried after her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Honora watched Vivica rush after Larissa, a flicker of disappointment and resentment in her eyes. Were they already regretting their choice? Well, it was too late now. She would make sure they never repaired their relationship with Larissa.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLarissa.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Torrin\u2019s voice stopped her. She turned to her right to see him approaching. He had waited until the Palmers left to find his chance.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Colter, unable to dissuade his son, went to make their excuses to Neville and Sapphira, but not before issuing a stern warning. \u201cYou can talk to her, but don\u2019t cause any trouble. The Dillon family may be powerful in Regal City, but we can\u2019t afford to offend the Judsons and the Palmers.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Torrin walked up to Larissa, his eyes filled with resentment. \u201cI can\u2019t believe you agreed to marry Haskell so soon after we broke up. So you\u2019re not so noble after all. You always looked down on me, didn\u2019t you? Just waiting for a better offer to come along so you could kick me to the curb.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Seeing that he had cast her as a gold digger, Larissa sighed. \u201cTorrin, if thinking that makes you feel better, then go right ahead. Are we done?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
