Chapter 717

Author: Glazed Snow
Ida froze in place, her body stiffening as if struck by lightning. She stared at Horace in disbelief.

"What?! You found a way to save Brittany, but it requires trading your life for hers?"

Horace nodded. "Yes, that's right."

Ida's breath caught in her throat. She took a step forward, clearly shaken. "Are you really going to give up your life to save her?"

"I am. I didn't want to keep this from you," he said calmly. "Your father once did a great favor for the Larson family. I owe it to him to make sure you're taken care of before anything happens. It's the least I can do to repay that debt."

A debt of gratitude… Was that all their relationship had ever meant to him? Was that truly the only tie between them—a favor repaid, and nothing more?

Ida looked at Horace, her voice trembling with emotion. "This is madness! You're still so young; you've built an empire and reached the very top of the business world! How can you throw all that away just to save Brittany? I can't let you do th

Jessica and Ida should be mother and daughter because they are both snakes. I hope they both get what's coming to them.

  • The Heartbreak Prescription   Chapter 1010

    Martin was in no rush, but Shaun definitely was.And not just a little—he was seriously anxious.Shaun said, "Look, this situation's kinda unusual. Your girlfriend is out meeting another guy. Don't you care she might end up falling for him instead?"Martin smiled a little. "Let me guess—you sent Ms. Mallin a text and she didn't reply, is that right?"Shaun didn't say anything.Martin was very smart and a capable assistant. But right now, Shaun wouldn't have minded if he were a bit more clueless.Martin continued, "If you really miss Ms. Mallin, you could always call her. That's better than sitting here overthinking everything."Shaun figured this had to be what love felt like—it made people nervous, made them spiral with all kinds of crazy thoughts.Shaun ordered, "Cancel everything on my schedule this afternoon."Martin blinked. "What are you planning to do?"Shaun smiled. He had a plan.-Meanwhile, at Anteoch University, Halsey had been running around nonstop since she g

  • The Heartbreak Prescription   Chapter 1009

    Shaun pulled his multi-million-dollar car up in front of Anteoch University. Today, he was dressed in the classic rich CEO look—black suit, crisp white shirt. The moment he stepped out, his handsome and refined appearance turned heads.It didn't take long for the young, pretty college girls to start glancing his way; eyes lighting up with interest, soft smiles blooming as they exchanged looks full of curiosity and admiration.Shaun didn't pay them any attention. He was used to this kind of reaction. After watching Halsey disappear into the campus, he turned around and got into his luxury car, ready to leave.Just then, he heard someone tapping on his window.Shaun slowly lowered it. Standing outside was a pretty student, her eyes shining as she looked at him. She gave him a sweet smile. "Hi."Shaun's expression stayed perfectly calm. "Something you need?"The girl gathered her courage. "Hi, um... Can I get your number?""Sorry," Shaun replied without a change in expression. "My

    Shaun let out a helpless sigh. Honestly, he still wanted to ask more about Calvin—but he didn't want to ruin Halsey's mood, so he kept it to himself.Holding her in his arms, he asked, "You hungry?"Halsey nodded. "Yeah, I am.""I'll go make something to eat, then."Shaun got out of bed."Why don't we just let the housekeeper cook? Don't you have work to do?" she asked."From now on, I'll be doing the cooking myself. What, you don't like my cooking?"Shaun was actually an amazing cook—just as good as a pro chef. Halsey nodded. "I do like it."That was all he needed to hear.They say the way to a woman's heart is through her stomach. Shaun figured he had better keep sharpening his kitchen skills.-The next morning, Halsey woke up at 7 AM.Shaun, still lying beside her, said, "Want to sleep a little longer?""No, I've got to get to school! I haven't been in years, and I'm a little nervous!"Shaun sat up and looked at her anxious face. "What's there to be nervous about?"B

    Halsey looked at Shaun with a sweet smile. "Mr. Lane, you're still so young. Shouldn't you be focused on making money or being with a bunch of pretty girls? Is getting married all you can think about?"Shaun pulled her into a tight hug. "All I want is to marry you. Is that so wrong?"Halsey laughed. "Not at all!"Just then, a soft ringtone filled the air. Halsey's phone was ringing."Hold on. Let me take this." She glanced at the screen. "It's Calvin."Shaun narrowed his eyes slightly. He remembered that name well. When it came to the men around Halsey, he had a sharper memory than anyone.Calvin came from a good family and worked as a university professor. He was smart and respectable.And Halsey wasn't just anyone—she was a rich heiress. Naturally, there were plenty of high-quality men constantly around her. Even though Shaun was doing well himself now, it didn't stop him from feeling a little uneasy.There were way too many men who liked Halsey."I'll take the call," she

  • The Heartbreak Prescription   Chapter 1006

    These past three years, the worst pain for Shaun wasn't physical—it was emotional. All this time, he had believed that Halsey had abandoned him.But she hadn't.Shaun looked at her. "So… You and Gilbert were never together?"Halsey laughed. "You really thought I dated him?"Shaun nodded. "I mean, if we don't talk about his personality, Gilbert's actually not a bad choice. He's handsome, rich, and ambitious, and you were once engaged to him. How was I supposed to know you didn't fall for him at some point?"Halsey could hear the jealousy in his voice, so she teased him on purpose. "Now that you mention it, Mr. Lane, Gilbert is pretty decent. Lots of rich girls in our circle liked him. I mean, he and I did—"Before she could finish, Shaun reached out and covered her mouth. "Stop. Don't say another word."He didn't want to hear it.Halsey gently pulled his hand away. Under the soft glow of the light, her almond-shaped eyes sparkled beautifully."No, I want to say it. Gilbert migh

  • The Heartbreak Prescription   Chapter 1005

    "Chelsea," Warren snapped, "I thought we were friends, but to you, I was just a tool. I wish I'd never met you! I'm not helping you—deal with the consequences yourself. Stay in there for the rest of your life!"Now that even Warren refused to help her, Chelsea completely froze. She really didn't want to go to prison—it wasn't fair! She couldn't accept it.Chelsea turned to Halsey. "This is all your fault! I had a bright future ahead of me, and you ruined it!""Chelsea, even now, you still haven't learned a thing," Halsey replied calmly. "It was your own greed that destroyed you."Shaun had no interest in wasting another word on Gilbert and Chelsea. "Take them away," he ordered.Gilbert and Chelsea were escorted out.Once they were gone, Warren turned to Halsey. "Ms. Mallin, I owe you an apology."Seeing Warren bow his head first, Halsey gave a soft smile. "Warren, you don't need to apologize to me. You didn't do anything wrong. You were just too stubborn and believed Chelsea."
