Larissa's Game of Thrones (Larissa) novel Chapter 349

Finley pushed the thoughts aside. If his mother hadn’t found him collapsed outside the east wing villa last night, he might have died there. He touched the bruise on his forehead and winced. “It’s nothing. I bumped it.”

“You bumped it? But why would you…” Honora trailed off, her eyes widening with realization. Her concern morphed into self-blame. “Finley, was it the poison? Was the pain so unbearable that you had to hurt yourself to get through it?”

Finley’s silence was his answer.

“Oh, Finley, this is all my fault,” she said, her voice cracking as tears welled in her eyes. “If it weren’t for me, Larissa would have cured you yesterday, and you wouldn’t have had to suffer for another day.”

Leopold, listening to her fake sentiment, was disgusted. He couldn’t believe he had ever found her pitiful.

Moved by her worry, Finley momentarily forgot the agonizing pain of the previous night. He patted her head gently. “It’s okay. It was only one more night. Today, Larissa is going to wake Leopold and cure me. You don’t have to be upset.”

“I know… but Larissa despises us. Why would she suddenly agree to help you?” Honora asked, a hint of suspicion in her voice.

“You don’t need to worry about that.” Finley didn’t want to tarnish Honora with their family’s dirty tactics. “I’m going to handle Leopold’s discharge papers. You can pack his things. We’ll take him home as soon as I’m done.”

“Okay,” Honora replied meekly.

As soon as Finley left the room, her expression shifted to one of scornful amusement. She began packing Leopold’s belongings.
