Chapter 754

Author: Glazed Snow
Wendy answered the call, and Halsey's cheerful voice came through. "Are you still in the Capital? Let's hang out!"

"I don't have time today. I'm at the courthouse."

There was a pause on the other end, then Halsey gasped. "The courthouse?"

"Yes," Wendy said quietly. "Stanley and I are getting our marriage license."

What?!

Halsey practically exploded with excitement. "Why didn't you tell me you were marrying Stanley again? You'll be my cousin-in-law now! This is amazing. I always knew you and Stanley belonged together!"

Wendy smiled softly. "Let's get together another day."

After Wendy hung up, the courthouse staff called out, "Number 18! Number 18, please come forward to register!"

Wendy glanced down at the number slip in her hand—number 18. It was her turn to marry Stanley.

She looked outside but saw no sign of Stanley's tall, strong figure.

He said he was on his way, so why wasn't he here yet?

"Number 18! Is number 18 here?"

Wendy stepped forward quickly. "Hello, I'm numbe

I agree with the other readers, it would have been nice to give Wendy a happy ending instead of trying to prolong the story!

  • The Heartbreak Prescription   Chapter 1020

    Halsey told Calvin straight up that she really loved Shaun.Outside the door, Shaun's lips curved into a small smile. He had known all along—he always had.Calvin, on the other hand, was stunned. He had planned to tell Halsey what he really felt tonight. If the families could arrange for them to be engaged, it would've been perfect. But now, it was clear that Halsey was taken.Halsey placed her hand gently on her lower belly, her delicate features glowing with maternal warmth. "Besides, I'm pregnant. Shaun and I are already over five months along."Calvin's eyes widened. Halsey was so slim, and with her loose dress, it was impossible to tell she was expecting.Still, Calvin was the type who could accept things gracefully. He gave a small, bitter smile. "I see. Congratulations."Halsey returned the smile. "Thank you. I'm really glad to have a friend like you."She had excellent timing and tact. By being honest before Calvin could confess, she spared him any embarrassment, prese

    Halsey grinned. "Calvin, perfect timing! Here's the menu. Let's order!"She handed the menu to Calvin.Calvin took it and flipped through the pages. "I remember you loved barbecue ribs when you were a kid."At that moment, Shaun had just finished his phone call and turned toward the private room door.Since the door wasn't fully closed, Shaun heard Calvin talking to Halsey about childhood memories. He withdrew his hand from the door handle and didn't rush in. Instead, he stayed there quietly, curious about what Halsey and Calvin were chatting about.Halsey nodded. "Yeah, but not just as a kid. I still love them! It's kind of sweet that you remember my childhood favorites."Calvin smiled warmly. "Of course, I remember! But back then, you were really close to Gilbert, and your families even arranged for your engagement."Halsey didn't want to bring up Gilbert. There were no good memories there. "I'm sure you've heard about Gilbert. There are no secrets in our circles. He's history

    "Great," Calvin said softly. "I'm glad you remember. See you tonight."After hanging up, Shaun looked straight at Halsey. "So you've got plans with Calvin tonight?"She nodded. "Yeah. I ran into him on campus today. Honestly, I wouldn't even be at Anteoch University if he hadn't helped me, so I want to take him out to dinner to say thank you."Shaun knew Halsey didn't think of Calvin as more than friends, but it was obvious that the guy fancied her.In their world, heiresses born into powerful families like Halsey were always at the center of marriage alliances and competition.Still, Shaun didn't stop her. Halsey was a person, not some toy. She had her own life, her own space, and her own friends. Even if some of those friends happened to be guys, and even if it rubbed him the wrong way, he would suck it up because he knew love meant being patient and understanding. After all, he wanted forever with her."Then, would you mind if there was one more person tonight?" he asked sud

    Halsey's lashes fluttered. "What title would that be?""You really don't know?" Shaun asked. "Or are you just pretending?"Her heart skipped a beat. Of course, she knew exactly what he meant. Heat rushed to her cheeks, and she tried to get up. "Let me go!"Her skin was pale with just a touch of pink, soft and delicate. With her face glowing red, the tiny fuzz on her cheeks shimmered like glass in the light. It made him want to kiss her, or maybe even bite her, just to prove she was real.Shaun only held her tighter, his strong arms locking her against him no matter how much she wriggled. His lips curled into a teasing smile. "Your lecturer asks you a question, and you don't answer? Don't you think that's a little rude?"She arched a brow. "Isn't it even worse for a lecturer to be hugging his student right now?"Before she could say more, Shaun leaned down and caught her lips with his."Mmph!" She pushed against his chest, trying to shove him back. "Let go!"But as soon as she o

    "Alright," Shaun replied with a smile. "I'll do whatever you say."Halsey pressed the button and answered her phone. On the other end, a girl's cheerful voice came through. "Did you already leave campus?""Yes, I was about to head out. Why?" Halsey asked."Do you have time tonight? Let's have dinner together."The girl was inviting her out.But Halsey already had plans for tonight, so she had to turn her down gently. "I'm sorry, I can't tonight. I've already got something planned. How about next time? Dinner will be on me then."The girl sighed, disappointed. "That's such a shame. We were all planning to find a way to get Mr. Lane's number tonight."Get Shaun's number?Halsey immediately looked up at him. He was already watching her, his dark eyes full of focus and intensity, and she felt herself falling straight into them."You all want Mr. Lane's number?" Halsey asked. "But doesn't he already have a girlfriend?""Yeah, but just because he has a girlfriend doesn't mean we do

    Halsey stood outside the office door and knocked lightly.The door wasn't closed all the way, so she could see inside. Shaun was sitting in the professor's chair, his black suit jacket draped over the back. He wore a crisp white shirt and black slacks, eyes lowered as he flipped through a book. The sight of him—sharp, elegant, and completely focused—made it impossible for her to look away.At the sound of her knock, Shaun looked up. "Come in."Halsey stepped inside. "Close the door," Shaun said.She did as told, then walked over to him. "Why did you ask to see me?""Are you free tonight?" he asked.Her lips curved into a smile. "Why do you ask?""I'd like to take you out to dinner.""You? Taking me out? Are you sure that's okay?"He raised his brows, amused. "Why wouldn't it be?""You're a guest lecturer. If people saw us eating together, I can imagine the gossip flying around."Shaun reached out and caught her wrist, tugging her down onto his lap. "Let them talk. I don't
