Jessica’s voice trembled with anger as she glared daggers at Wendy
“ What do you think you’re doing ?! This is the Larson family’s private affair! What right do you have to stick your nose in ? ”
Ida slid off the bed , her carefully crafted plan unraveling before her eyes . Everything had been going so smoothly , but Wendy had thrown a wrench into it all .
Ida dropped her fragile act and fixed Wendy with a cold , hard stare “ Ms. Crone , you truly have a knack for meddling in things that don’t concern you . ”
Wendy’s clear eyes locked onto Ida’s face ,
Larson , except maybe him . ”
Ida’s expression faltered .
get why you’re angry . Anyone could tell you’re interested in Mr.
“ But if you don’t mind me being blunt , ” Wendy continued , “ Mr. Larson hasn’t divorced Ms. Brewer yet . You openly climbing into a married man’s bed – aren’t you basically playing the role of the other woman ? Do you really enjoy being a homewrecker ? ”
Ida stiffened like a statue . She had once won against the legitimate wife , but against Wendy’s sharp tongue , she found herself losing ground . She seethed , “ How dare you … ”
Wendy’s gaze shifted to Jessica’s
“ You’re really strange . I unde
why Ms. Olsen’s upset , but why are you angry ? Ms. Brewer is your mother . Do you want your
father to cheat on her with someone else ? ”
She looked between the two of them , suspicion creeping into her eyes .
“ Is it possible that you knew Ms. Olsen was trying to sleep with your dad , and deliberately brought your mom here to see it ? Only a demented person would do that , right ? ”
Jessica was speechless . She was stunned not only by Wendy’s sharp words , but also by the latter’s unnerving insight .
Wendy was starting to suspect them now .
Jessica hurriedly spoke , “ Stop making up nonsense ! I had no idea what my dad and Ms. Olsen were doing . I’m angry because you’re always hanging around my parents . I’m their daughter , not you ! What are you trying to do ? Steal my parents away from me ? ”
Wendy looked at Jessica calmly . “ You said they’re your parents , so why are you so insecure , so afraid I’ll take them from you ? If you’re really worried about that , then do your part as a daughter and pay more attention to your parents . ”
With that , Wendy turned on her heel and left .
Absolutely unbelievable !
Jessica reached out and slammed the bedside lamp onto the floor .
Wendy was downright infuriating .
“ What now ? My dad ran after Brittany ! ”
Ida’s face darkened . “ You don’t have to remind me ! This is all Wendy’s fault . Without her , my plan would’ve worked ! ”
“ What should we do now ? ”
“ I’ll think of another way . ”
Brittany shut herself inside her villa , locking the door behind her . Her mind wouldn’t stop replaying the scene of Horace and Ida

tangled together on the bed .
More than twenty years had passed . She had thought she had moved on , that it no longer mattered .
However , she realized she couldn’t let go .
Her eyes felt like they had been stabbed , and her heart pierced just as sharply.
Horace , that rotten man ! She must’ve lost her mind to agree to marry him back then .
Suddenly , the maid’s voice from outside caught her attention . “ Mr Larson ? What are you doing here ? ”
Horace had followed her .
Soon , a knock sounded on the door , and Horace’s low voice came through . “ Brittany ! ”
Brittany froze , surprised he had come .
What was he doing here ? Wasn’t he supposed to be tangled up with Ida in bed ?
