Larissa Judson and Haskell Palmer novel Chapter 884

[Holy crap! Rigby is so damn hot!]

[Oh my god, we misunderstood him for all these years! He's the real deal!]

[Just saying, he never cleared up that thing with Larissa. Doesn't that mean it was true?]

[Yeah, why didn't he clarify that? It can't be true, can it? Oh god, no! I just started shipping the power couple Larissa and Haskell! Is true love dead?]

[Hate all you want, but I believe in her! She and Rigby are definitely innocent! Accusing them of having an affair based on a few meaningless photos? That's beyond ridiculous!]

[Exactly! And now that Rigby's situation is cleared up, it proves he's a stand-up guy!]

Three days later.

At eight that evening, Haskell, whose account had been mostly dormant since he created it, suddenly posted a tweet tagging Rigby: [Welcome back, my dear brother.]

Almost instantly, Rigby replied from his own account, tagging Haskell: [This is my big brother.]

It blew up.

[What?! Rigby is Haskell's actual brother? Then was Draven a fake?]

[No wonder! Looking back, it all makes sense now! I was wondering how Draven could plot to kill his own brother, only to be sent to prison by him. It's because he wasn't his real brother at all!]

Shortly after, Rigby posted another tweet, explaining that Larissa had been helping him all along, and that Haskell had known about it the entire time.

...

After dinner and a shower, Larissa was lying in bed, scrolling through the trending comments online, when she got a call from Nightveil.

"Boss, our operative at the Luminary Arts Centre training facility just reported in. There's a girl named Ianthe who's become severely depressed and possibly suicidal after Honora took her out somewhere. Our agent finally got her to talk today. It turns out Honora took her to see Lucius and tried to force her to change into revealing clothes and perform for him. When she refused, they beat her. Since then, Honora has been threatening her nonstop. She's supposed to be taken back to Lucius tomorrow, and if she doesn't comply this time, they're threatening to ship her overseas and sell her into prostitution."

Hearing this, Larissa's casual amusement vanished, her expression turning ice-cold.

"Understood. Tell our agent it's time to close the net. Tomorrow night, I want you to expose everything happening behind the scenes at the Luminary Arts Centre. Bring Honora to me. And make sure you protect Ianthe and any other girls who've been tricked or coerced."

"Understood, Boss."
