Semua Bab The Heartbreak Prescription: Bab 781 - Bab 790

Horace and Brittany finally relaxed a little. "Alright. Thank you, doctor."The doctor left, and the two of them sat quietly on the bed, watching Wendy, who had collapsed from exhaustion.Brittany reached out and gently touched Wendy's delicate face. "She spent two hours giving me needle therapy just now. She wore herself out for me. We barely know each other, but she's been so kind. I don't even know how to repay her."Horace tried to reassure her. "She'll be fine.""I don't know why, but I feel a strange closeness to Wendy. It's like I want to spend all my time with her," Brittany said softly.Horace nodded. Honestly, he felt the same way.Brittany's thoughts drifted to Jessica. "Jessica is now under Ida's influence. That woman is using her against us. Watching Jessica so lost and caught on the wrong path just breaks my heart. If only she were more like Wendy."In truth, Horace knew about Jessica's true nature and cunning even earlier than Brittany did. But as Jessica was thei

Even though Wendy was deeply worried about Stanley and wanted to stay by his side, she knew she had to leave. If she stayed, all it would do was cause him more pain.Without looking back, Wendy turned and walked away."Don't go!"Stanley threw back the covers and climbed out of bed, wrapping his arms tightly around her from behind.He buried his handsome face in Wendy's long hair, his voice rough and strained. "Please don't go! Don't leave me, okay?"Wendy felt his pain as clearly as her own. "You have to let go. If you don't, your pain will get worse."But Stanley refused to let go. Instead, he held her even tighter. "I don't mind the pain. Just don't leave me."Suddenly, a sharp wave of agony crashed over him. His vision went black, and his tall, strong frame collapsed again.Wendy caught him just in time. "Stanley!"-When Stanley woke again, it was night. Horace and Brittany were by his bedside."Hey, Stanley."Their eyes were full of concern as they gently helped him s

What?!Outside the door, Stanley, Horace, and Brittany all froze at the same moment.-Jessica and Ida had left. Though the secret of Ida's Coldost witchcraft had been exposed, they hadn't lost.Jessica's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Do you really think Stanley will marry me?"Ida took a calm sip of her tea. "Of course he will. Just get ready to be a bride. Only I can break the Heartchain Curse inside him."Jessica linked her arm with Ida's. "You're the only one who's truly good to me."Ida smiled. "Now that you're my daughter, of course I'll take care of you."Jessica said sweetly, "Thanks, Mom!"In Jessica's world, she would call anyone who treated her well or was useful to her "Mom".Just then, a maid hurried in. "We received a delivery."Ida looked up. "What is it?"The maid pulled out a gilded invitation. "It's an invitation."Ida took it in her hand. "To what?"She unfolded the gold-embossed card. Jessica leaned in to see it, and their expressions instantly darke

Horace and Brittany stepped forward, their expressions full of frustration toward their daughter—as if she just wasn't living up to their hopes. "Hello, Jessica."Jessica shot them a glare, clearly annoyed. "Shut up!"The atmosphere froze instantly.Halsey stepped in smoothly. "Ms. Larson, today's supposed to be a happy day. Maybe you should try to keep your temper in check."Jessica snorted in reply. "What's so happy about today? Is it because my parents are officially making Wendy their goddaughter? Now there's someone else fighting for their love?"Her eyes locked onto Horace and Brittany's faces. "Do you even see me as your daughter? Where do I fit now that you've taken Wendy in as a goddaughter?"The other company leaders nearby started whispering among themselves. "What's going on? Is Ms. Larson upset about Mr. and Mrs. Larson naming Ms. Wendy their goddaughter?""Looks like she came here just to cause trouble.""She's definitely not here to celebrate—she's alrea

Ida's smile shattered in an instant. "What did you say?!"Halsey stepped forward confidently. "With Wendy's talent and strength, she doesn't need to cling to anyone. The Larson family is just a bonus to her success."Ida's face darkened.Horace said firmly, "Wendy is now part of the Larson family. If anyone dares to provoke her or show disrespect, I'll have them kicked out immediately."His words were clearly meant for Ida, with no regard for their past.Ida clenched her fists at her sides and glanced at Jessica.Jessica stepped toward her parents without hesitation. "It's time you made your choice."Wendy asked calmly, "Choice? What choice?"Jessica smirked proudly. "Haven't you heard? I asked my parents to choose between you and me, and they still haven't decided."Wendy nodded. "I see."Jessica's voice took on a sharper edge. "I know you've done a lot for my parents, and they're taking you in to repay that—but I'm their biological daughter. You're not going to ask them to
