"I brought its food, too," Haskell said, holding out a container of freeze-dried spiders he had grabbed from the room.

Larissa took it and placed a few on her palm. Sage shot Haskell a glare before gobbling them down in one bite.

Sapphira watched the scene unfold with a contented smile, while Neville looked at his wife with a pang of heartache.

After spending about an hour at the Judson estate, Larissa and Haskell finally left.

Watching his wife stand at the villa's entrance, gazing wistfully after their car, Neville wrapped an arm around her shoulders. "Don't be sad," he comforted her. "It's not like Larissa is gone for good."

"Larissa is married. That's a happy occasion. Why would I be sad?" Sapphira replied.

And now, with Paxton's family gone and even Kiernan Judson living in the countryside, the vast estate felt particularly quiet with just the two of them. That's why she'd thought of getting pets—to liven the place up a bit. She didn't understand why Larissa had advised her to wait, but she trusted her daughter had her reasons.

"Go on, Aunt Xylee. What is it?" Haskell said, his expression calm.
