Chapter 141

Author: Glazed Snow
Wendy made her way backstage. She had asked Cyril to clear the area, so she was alone in the room.

She sat in front of the vanity, her long, jet-black hair tied up in a low ponytail, exposing her delicate, swan-like neck. She then applied a light touch of makeup, adding a layer of lipstick.

She rarely wore makeup—her face, naturally fair and youthful, already had an angelic look. Now, with just a hint of makeup, her beauty became even more striking.

Outside, she could hear Cyril's voice. "Good morning, everyone."

Wendy stood up and reached out to lift the corner of the stage curtain. The massive lecture hall was packed, with rows upon rows of people filling the whole place. This highly anticipated event was standing room only.

The sound of camera shutters clicking echoed through the room.

Cyril stood at the podium, speaking into the microphone. "We've gathered here today for..."

The crowd cheered in unison, "Dr. Ceylan!"

Cyril smiled and nodded. "That's right. It is our grea

It’s becoming so boring and the so called suspense is not necessary. So many unrealistic childish excuses.

  • The Heartbreak Prescription   Chapter 1071

    Sierra wanted to see Shaun suffer.Once Halsey was out of the picture, she had plenty of time to make Shaun hers. She was determined to become Mrs. Lane.Zada's face had drained of all color. "Sierra, what should we do? Halsey was fine, and now she's suddenly in surgery! What the hell is going on?"Sierra sneered inwardly. Zada was an idiot; hence why Sierra had picked her as the perfect scapegoat.Sierra reached out and held Zada's arm, putting on a comforting act. "Calm down. Halsey is going to be fine. We have to believe that."Zada nodded quickly. "You're right. She and her baby will both be fine!"Sierra continued smoothly, "As for what exactly happened, we'll know once Mr. Lane gets here. He'll figure it out."Zada slowly steadied her breathing, but just then, a familiar voice rang out. "What happened to Halsey?"Sierra turned and saw Shaun's tall, composed figure coming toward them. He had arrived faster than she expected. If Shaun came over so quickly when he heard

    Sierra's eyes were glued to Halsey. She watched as Halsey opened her mouth and drank the chicken soup.Halsey had drunk the poisoned soup!A huge weight lifted off Sierra's chest. She leaned against the wall, gasping for air, her eyes shining with triumph. After all this struggle, she had finally defeated Halsey!She glanced back at the hospital room. Halsey had finished the entire bowl of soup. Forget a bowl—even a sip of the poisoned soup could be fatal. Sierra waited eagerly for the moment Halsey would succumb.Zada took back the empty bowl. "Good job. You finished the soup. Now lie down and get some rest."Halsey nodded. "Okay."Suddenly, she clutched her stomach, her face going pale.Zada's expression shifted to concern. "What's wrong?"Halsey winced in pain. "My stomach…it hurts so much… Why does it hurt like this… It really hurts…"Panic surged through Zada. "You don't look so good. I'll call a doctor. Doctor! Someone get a doctor!"Almost immediately, a team of do

    Zada agreed to take Sierra to the hospital.Sierra immediately smiled. "Thanks, you're the best! The three of us will always be best friends!""If you really wanna be friends with Halsey again, you should clear things up with the reporters about you and Mr. Lane," Zada said.Sierra fell silent. Not this again.Zada went on, "Why not do it tomorrow? Go to the press tomorrow and set the record straight. Then Halsey and Mr. Lane can make up."Sierra was annoyed with Zada, but she played along. Once Zada's soup got Halsey, and Zada ended up in jail, Sierra would end their friendship."Okay," Sierra said with a smile. "I'll clear it up with the reporters tomorrow."Zada returned the smile. "Great. On behalf of Halsey, thank you.""No need to thank me. Nothing ever happened between me and Mr. Lane, anyway.""Alright, let's go to the hospital."-When they got to the hospital. Zada said to Sierra, "Wait outside the room. I'll go in myself."Sierra nodded and watched Zada carry the

    Zada nodded. "Yeah. I'll bring the soup to the hospital now so Halsey can have it while it's hot."Sierra reached out. "Let me help.""No, it's fine. I'll do it myself," Zada said, brushing her off.Sierra was frustrated. Zada wasn't giving her a chance to poison the soup. The little packet of powder was still in her pocket."What are you just standing there for? Go sit in the living room for a bit. I'll be quick," Zada said.Sierra was getting anxious. The soup was ready. If she didn't find a chance now, she'd lose this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"But I wanna do something for Halsey, too. Let me help," Sierra pressed, moving to grab the ladle from Zada.But Zada pushed her hand away. "Really, I don't need help. You'll only get in the way."Sierra fell silent. What could she do now?Then, Zada suddenly said, "Huh, where's the thermos? I remember I left it here.""You can't find the thermos?" Sierra asked, trying to sound casual."Yeah, I put it on the coffee table earli

    Halsey nodded. "Okay."Zada turned and walked out.Sierra, standing by the door, immediately slipped into the corner, watching Zada leave her line of sight.She crept back to the doorway and looked inside at Halsey. Halsey's head was bowed, her expression heavy. She was no longer the sparkling, pampered heiress everyone adored. Sierra felt a thrill of satisfaction.In truth, she had always been jealous of Halsey. Halsey had everything she wanted—beauty, attention, admiration. Sierra couldn't accept it. As she hid in the shadows, watching Halsey, her mind had already twisted into something dark and sick. Sierra wanted to take Halsey down, make her life miserable, and watch her suffer.She also wanted Halsey's man. She wanted to be Mrs. Lane.And now, the moment had come.Zada had gone back to make soup for Halsey. If Sierra could slip something into that soup, she could kill Halsey. And she had Zada, the perfect unwitting accomplice. Nobody would know it was her.Smiling

    Sierra wouldn't clarify the matter, of course, but she couldn't explain herself to Zada either. After all, Zada was her strongest pawn, the one she needed to use to take down Halsey."I-I…" Sierra stammered, unable to finish her sentence.Just then, a gentle ringtone sounded. Someone was calling Zada.Zada pulled out her phone, and Sierra's sharp eyes immediately caught the caller ID. It was Halsey.Zada answered, "Hey, Halsey."Since Zada hadn't put the call on speaker, Sierra couldn't hear what Halsey was saying. Zada's expression instantly changed, and she jumped to her feet. "What did you say? You're in the hospital?"Halsey was in the hospital?Sierra's heart pounded in her chest."Okay. I'm coming right now." Zada hung up and started moving.Sierra grabbed her arm. "What's going on? Did something happen to Halsey?"Zada's face was serious. "She's been experiencing some pain in her abdomen today. She's already in the hospital, and I need to go see her.""I'll go wit
