Chapter 311\u00a0<\/p>\n
With the microphone on, Avril blinked, then mentally applauded her cousin\u2013in\u2013law\u2019s signature boldness. Instead of ignoring the insult, Larissa was escalating things.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Inspired, Avril repeated what she had just said, her voice now ringing through the hall. \u201cGarrick, you have the nerve to call me stupid? You can\u2019t even control a simple microphone, yet you think you can control anything important? And you dare to lecture me about choosing sides?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFine, since you brought it up, let me be clear. Even in a wheelchair, Haskell could run circles around all of you! His legs may be injured, but his brain is perfectly fine! As long as he doesn\u2019t give up, he\u2019ll crush anyone who gets in his way!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBesides, his legs can be healed. But even if they couldn\u2019t, a sharp mind is all he needs. Someone like you, on the other hand, with a broken brain? That\u2019s truly incurable!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Avril\u2019s tirade left Garrick so furious he looked ready to leap across the hall and strangle her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHow did I do, Larissa?\u201d Avril asked, beaming, clearly seeking praise.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa gave her a thumbs\u2013up. \u201cSharp, witty, and straight to the point!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Garrick switched his microphone back on. \u201cAvril, you just wait! Don\u2019t think I won\u2019t touch you just because we\u2019re both Palmers!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just as Avril was about to retort, Larissa patted her shoulder again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMy turn,\u201d she said, then spoke calmly into the microphone. \u201cGarrick, if you have a problem, bring it to me. Leave Avril out of it. I\u2019m waiting. If you don\u2019t, you\u2019re no man. Everyone here heard you. You\u2019re not going to admit you\u2019re a coward, are you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
With his father and brother absent, Garrick felt no need to restrain his temper. \u201cWhy would I be scared? Larissa, don\u2019t get ahead of yourself just because you caused some chaos at the Judson estate and dealt with a loser like Draven. You have no right to throw your weight around in the Palmer family!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright, then,\u201d Larissa replied coolly. \u201cI\u2019ll be waiting. Just make sure you\u2019re all bark and no bite.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The brief interruption came to an end.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the Dawn Suite, Sharon couldn\u2019t help but chuckle. \u201cI\u2019ve heard a lot about Larissa recently, that she\u2019s quite a character. Today, I\u2019ve seen it for myself. She really is interesting. No wonder my foolish brother is still obsessed with her even after being brought back into the family.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her friend teased, \u201cSo, you think it was unfair for your father to banish him to food delivery for trying to crash her engagement party?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNot entirely unfair. He needs to reflect on his actions and understand his place now,\u201d Sharon said, her gaze drifting back to Larissa. \u201cAs it stands, it\u2019s impossible for my brother to marry her. Not only is she engaged to Haskell, but even if she weren\u2019t, he could never handle a woman like that.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
In another suite, Lucius Lincoln watched Larissa, his eyes narrowed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis Larissa is quite bold.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

His assistant replied, \u201cThe elite circles have been buzzing with rumors about her. They say she\u2019s been fearless since returning to the Judson family, completely catching Paxton\u2019s family off guard. Even Haskell Palmer treasures her. Her engagement party last night was magnificent, and she reportedly resolved a major crisis that occurred.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lucius had heard some of the rumors but hadn\u2019t believed them, knowing they were often exaggerated. But today, he had witnessed Larissa\u2019s audacious personality firsthand. It was no wonder she had made such waves in Regal City, earning the favor of both Haskell and Zoltan. Even the Judson patriarch, Kiernan, was considering giving her the family business.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His curiosity piqued. \u201cHaskell has a sharp eye. Even crippled, he wouldn\u2019t fall for someone without real substance. Investigate this Larissa for me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
