Dead at Heart Chapter 889
It soon became clear to everyone that Alicia meant nothing to Wade. His heart belonged to Janice. Bradley came to see Janice several times, begging her to talk some sense into Wade. Her reply was always the same. "I'm sure his sister would be more than happy to help you with that."Each time, Bradley was left speechless.After three months of wallowing in misery, Wade finally applied for retirement from military service. He took a position at the Garner family's company branch in Eldoria, all to remain in the same city as Janice.Chad was exasperated when he found out. He watched Janice closely for days, but she carried on as usual. Their interactions were still those of the closest friends; she seemed completely carefree and unaffected.She never sought out news about Wade, and when she heard any, she would simply remark, "I see."Janice realized she was like Ariel in that way. She refused to waste time despairing over someone who didn't deserve her affection. She would always

If Wade had found out about everything, then…Alicia struggled to maintain her composure, but the subtle shifts in her expression betrayed her. Wade had been bluffing about having proof. Even so, he had seen the flash of panic in her eyes—proof enough that Janice had been telling the truth.He had come demanding an explanation, and now everything was clear.Alicia had succeeded. After three years of meticulous planning, she had finally driven Janice away from him.The realization hit Wade like a physical blow. His eyes reddened as he fixed a malevolent gaze on Alicia."Alicia Newman, it sickens me to know how vile and despicable you are. You slandered a woman who never once treated you with malice or hostility. Did you actually think I would ever fall for you?"He bent down, staring straight into her eyes, which instantly welled with tears. This was her usual tactic—playing the victim to evoke his sympathy and a sense of duty to compensate for Janice.But now, only a cold ligh

Wade slumped to the ground near the door, looking utterly lost and defeated. Bradley waited outside in his car for a long time. As dusk began to fall and Wade still hadn't emerged, Bradley finally got out and headed into the residential area. His expression hardened the moment he found Wade. He had never seen the promising young man look so pathetic and broken."Wade, what's wrong?" Bradley asked, stepping closer.Wade didn't seem to hear him. His eyes were glazed over and rimmed with red.He had been sitting there for so long, and Janice hadn't come out to speak to him. It was clear he had ruined everything.Bradley, no longer bothering to be gentle with Wade's feelings, hauled him up from the ground and started pulling him toward the entrance.Only when they reached the car did Wade snap out of his daze and begin to resist. "I'm not leaving! She hasn't forgiven me yet. She's just upset…" His voice grew increasingly emotional.Bradley, both irritated and agitated, finally sn

Janice swallowed hard and took a slight step back. "It's too late, Wade. It's all too late. I gave you countless chances, but you never made me a priority. "You always assumed I would be fine with you neglecting me, with you choosing someone else over me, again and again. "You got spoiled by the old Janice, who loved you wholeheartedly. But Wade, feelings change. You kept choosing Alicia over me. You knew it would hurt me, yet you chose to play dumb or brush it aside."You knew what you were doing was wrong, but you counted on me getting over it because my love for you was so deep. You knew everything; you just didn't care enough about my feelings."Janice understood that it wasn't that Wade didn't care at all; it was that he never cared enough. He thought he could skip the essential work of a relationship—the comforting, the nurturing, the loving—simply because Janice's love was a given. He was arrogantly confident she would never leave him, so he brazenly repeated his mistake

Bradley slammed his foot down on the gas pedal.Upon reaching their destination, an ashen-faced Wade jumped out of the car and rushed into the building.Janice lived in a high-end residential complex where only residents or those with management approval could use the elevators. Wade had access since his face was stored in the security database, allowing him to bypass the facial recognition system.He went up to the right floor, but Janice wasn't home. She hadn't returned to her apartment.Wade tried calling her, but all his attempts failed. She didn't answer his calls or respond on WhatsApp.With no other choice, Wade went back down and borrowed Bradley's phone to try again.This time, someone finally picked up. A woman's calm voice came through the line. "Hello?"Wade immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to speak, a man's voice sounded in the background."Honey, you can put your things here. There's more than enough space in this house. Arrange them h

Bradley knew the two well enough to recognize that Wade was often weak to Alicia's pleas and requests. Were Wade by himself, he would answer; but Alicia's presence could easily complicate the matter. Regardless, had Wade realized how important today's wedding was—and resisted Alicia's influence—he might not have lost his final chance to make things right.The door swung open.Wade looked toward the stage, but his bride was nowhere to be seen. The hall buzzed with murmurs as guests whispered among themselves.As more people noticed Wade's arrival, the looks they gave him made his chest tighten with unease.Charles was the first to confront him. His body trembled with rage as he whipped his arm back and delivered a brutal slap across Wade's face. "Wade Garner, you're an absolute disgrace! Do you not know what day it is? Do you even realize what you've done? You've turned our family into a laughingstock!"Wade ignored the burning sting on his cheek. He scanned the hall again

Ariel couldn't help but feel Jayson's decision was a bit rash.Her ring had been a sky-high auction piece, yet his own had been hurriedly made?Somehow, she suddenly wanted to know what kind of state Jayson had been in back then. He had put so much thought into everything behind the scenes.Jayso

Ariel could see right through Jayson. He was pretending to be weak and frail. But she knew exactly why—he was doing it because of her."You know it still hurts when I breathe. I can't move my abdomen too much, and I can't even bathe myself," Jayson said in an unhurried tone.Arthur stood behind hi

Ariel watched as Jayson neatly packed her clothes into separate bags."I've separated the lighter and thicker clothes. You catch colds easily, so I've packed different kinds of medicine in the kit. The ones you need to take daily are in this clear box." He lifted the case to show her before placing

Ariel raised an eyebrow. "They don't know I was sick or about the surgery. This mission is really important. I can't refuse."She needed to cooperate with the government when necessary.Janice knew that Ariel's sense of responsibility was far too strong.After helping Ariel settle, Janice looked
