After Fuen's warm hospitality, Bologue watched as Vasilina dragged Palmer away like a trophy, to the end of the corridor, disappearing from sight.
"Palmer's in trouble now," Fuen came over and said with a grin, "As soon as this guy left, it was like a wild dog throwing off its collar, returning to the freedom of the wild."
Bologue followed the traces in his memory and said, "I remember this is the first time they've met since the engagement?"
Palmer and Vasilina's emotional entanglement is far more complicated than Palmer described.
"Yeah, Palmer left his Vasilina hanging in the Wind Source Highlands for so long, Vasilina probably wants to tear him apart."
Even though the one deeply in trouble was his own son, Fuen couldn't help but laugh.
Bologue couldn't help but wonder if Palmer was really Fuen's biological child, but then, thinking of Fuen's darn personality, perhaps when Palmer was born, Fuen might not have felt much joy of having a son, more like having a new toy.
