Chapter 756

Penulis: Glazed Snow
Stanley's voice was urgent. "You've already closed for the day? I had an appointment with my fiancée to get our marriage license today!"

The clerk nodded. "We closed a while ago. Is your fiancée a fair-skinned, pretty young lady?"

The staff remembered Wendy well.

Stanley nodded. "That's her! She's my fiancée."

The clerk gave him a stern look. "Well, you really deserve a scolding! Your fiancée waited for you all day inside the courthouse, and you never showed up. Getting your marriage license is a big deal. How could you just leave her hanging like that?"

Waited for him all day…?

Stanley's worry deepened. "I got held up with something today."

"We closed, and your fiancée left. You'll have to go find her yourself."

"Alright. Thank you."

Stanley dashed outside, then turned and jumped into his luxury car.

He grabbed his phone. His missed calls list was full—dozens of calls from Wendy, all unanswered.

He wanted to slap himself. How could he have made Wendy wait an entire day? Ho

And certainly Wendy would be searching for Stanley because she would know something bad happened to him

I don’t think I want to spend more money reading this dragging novel coz, you could make money right short chapters then write another novel, but these is making readers bored and less interested

Am starting to think the author joins several Chinese short dramas to make a novel, I have watched a drama like this but without unnecessary episodes like going back to school, I can’t believe We are spending money to read a novel that goes in circle on 750 chapters and now We have 2go back, boring

  • The Heartbreak Prescription   Chapter 814

    Halsey hoped Shaun hadn't forgotten her.Shaun looked at her and said simply, "Yes, I remember you."She let out a relieved breath. "That's great! Let me properly introduce myself—I'm Halsey Mallin.""Hello, Ms. Mallin," Shaun replied, his voice low and cool, unreadable.Halsey couldn't figure out what he was thinking. She had no clue whether he would agree if she asked for a favor.This man was a mystery. He was a rising star in business, yet he still drove a cab. Why?Now, all she could do was try. As long as there was even a glimmer of hope, she wouldn't give up. She couldn't just stand by and watch Gilbert destroy her family."Mr. Lane, the thing is... I have a bit of an awkward request. I want to get in to see Mr. Payne. I heard you're good friends with him. Could you take me in with you?"Shaun didn't say yes or no right away. "Why do you want to see Mr. Payne?""To be honest, my family business, Lincoln Enterprise, is in partnership with Mr. Payne's company. But we've h

  • The Heartbreak Prescription   Chapter 813

    Shaun was arriving?Gilbert raised an eyebrow, curious to finally see who this Shaun really was.Meanwhile, Halsey was still in the lobby of the private club, talking on the phone with Riley."Lincoln Enterprise has been hit with a lot of negative press lately," Riley explained. "Mr. Payne refuses to meet with us. And since he's playing here at the private club today, there's no way he'll see us.""Is there really no way to get in touch with Mr. Payne?" Halsey asked."I can't think of anything right now.""Alright. I'll keep trying to figure something out."After hanging up, Halsey furrowed her brow, determined. She had to meet William today, no matter what.Just then, with a soft roar of an engine, a luxury car pulled up to the club's entrance. The security guards immediately stepped forward to greet the arrival.Who was it?The two receptionists nearby whispered eagerly. "Who is it? Why the commotion?""Don't you know? It's Shaun Lane from GM Tech!""No way! Mr. Lane, t

    The receptionist gave Halsey an apologetic smile. "I'm sorry, but our private club has strict rules. We have to follow protocol, so please don't make it difficult for us."Just then, a familiar voice rang out. "Hey, Halsey."Halsey turned and saw Gilbert. He had changed into a casual golf polo and had arrived in his sleek Ferrari.Gilbert looked at her with a smirk. "Are you here to see Mr. Payne? What a coincidence. He invited me to play golf. But it looks like you can't get in. How about you beg me? Maybe I'll be generous and let you inside."Halsey shot him a sharp glare. "Don't get cocky."Gilbert's lips curved into a smug smile. "Oh, I'm cocky alright. It'll only get worse. Just wait and see."His words were a clear threat.At that moment, William's assistant appeared. "Hello, Mr. Greenwood. Please come in. Mr. Payne is waiting."Gilbert grinned. "Great, I'm heading in now." He stepped up beside Halsey. "See? I'm going in. Why don't you ask me nicely?"Halsey snapped, "Ge

    No man could stand being challenged like that; especially Gilbert, who had always been deeply bothered by Dwight's shadow hanging over him.Gilbert sneered coldly at Halsey, "I'm going to make you pay tonight!"He reached out to grab her collar, his fingers aiming to tear at her clothes.But in that moment, Halsey pulled out a can of pepper spray she had been hiding at her waist and sprayed it straight into Gilbert's eyes.Gilbert hadn't expected her to come armed. The stinging liquid burned fiercely, and he howled in pain. "Argh!"Seizing the chance, Halsey shoved him away. "You think I came here unprepared? I bought this pepper spray especially for you!"The last time Gilbert had almost crossed the line with her, it was only because of the cab driver's timely arrival that she wasn't taken. Since then, she had always carried the spray.Gilbert stood, glaring at her with furious eyes. "My patience is running thin! Are you really refusing to marry me? I suggest you think carefu

    Gilbert's handsome face was turned sharply from the slap.Halsey clenched her fist, her voice shaking with anger. "I used to think you were just a playboy, a shallow and unreliable man. But what you did this time showed me your true colors. You'll stop at nothing to get what you want, and you're willing to stoop so low. You have no bottom line, no morals. Do you really think I'd marry someone like you?"Gilbert slowly turned his face back to hers. Surprisingly, he wasn't angry at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "It's not up to you whether you marry me or not. It's up to me.""What exactly are you trying to do?""Mr. Payne from the multinational company has already arrived in the Capital. He's a friend of mine. If you refuse to marry me, I'll ask him to cut off cooperation with Lincoln Enterprise. Once that partnership ends, Lincoln Enterprise's entire cash flow will collapse, and your family's century-old legacy will fall apart—all because of you."Halsey's whole body trembled

    Gilbert chuckled. "Sure. I'll be waiting. Littuane Hotel, Presidential Suite. Make sure you don't get the wrong room."Halsey ended the call without another word.Gilbert was already waiting in the Presidential Suite at the Littuane Hotel. He had been there long before Halsey called. He knew she would come.As the only daughter of the Lincoln family, Halsey had been spoiled and cherished since childhood. Whatever she wanted, her parents were more than willing to give her. Raised like a flower in a greenhouse, she was also deeply devoted and loyal. She would never abandon her parents or Lincoln Enterprise.No one in this world gets to live solely for themselves. Everyone has their responsibilities.Gilbert poured himself a small glass of red wine. He wasn't in a rush to drink it. He swirled the wine gently, watching its rich color ripple inside the glass.Soon, a soft chime rang out. It was the doorbell.Someone had arrived. It must be Halsey.Gilbert smiled. She had come fast
