Chapter 777
Brittany’s voice was sharp with anger . “ I’ll make you pay ! ”
A cold laugh escaped Ida’s lips . She chuckled twice , then said , “ Jessica , let’s go . ”
Ida led Jessica away , striding confidently without a care ..
“ Jessica ! ” Brittany called after them desperately .
As she watched Jessica follow Ida , Brittany clutched her chest , pain flickering across her face .
Horace quickly pulled her into his arms , his voice trembling . “ Britony ! Brittany ! ”
Wendy stepped forward immediately . “ Help ) Ms. Brewer onto the bed . I need to examine her . ”

Both Stanley and Brittany had collapsed , with Stanley slipping into unconsciousness after being stabbed with the needle .
As Wendy checked Brittany’s pulse , Horace’s co deepened . ” the curse in Brittany flaring up again ? ”
Ida had cast a curse on Brittany that was different from the Heartchain Curse affecting Stanley , so Wendy still had the means to
treat Brittany .
Brittany’s face was pale as paper , but she tried to soothe him . “ I’m fine . ”
Horace grasped her hand tightly . “ It’s my fault . I never expected Ida to become what she is . I kept her close , and it hurt you . AH these years , I didn’t know the truth and let you suffer . I’m sorry . ”
Horace’s apology was sincere .
For years , Brittany had held a mixture of anger and resentment toward Horace for standing by Ida and letting her get away with so much . Yet , she also understood he had been deceived .
Now , as she saw Horace truly come to the truth and openly apologize , the bitterness inside her began to melt away .
Brittany shot him a teasing look . “ Forget it . Let’s not bring up the past . Just promise me there won’t be another Ida . ”
Horace nodded solemnly . “ You have my word . ”
A small smile curved Brittany’s lips .
Watching the two of them reconcile , Wendy felt a genuine warmth . “ Mr. Larson , you have to learn from this . A woman’s intuition is usually right . If Ms. Brewer says no to a woman , you must trust her and never keep that woman around . ”
Horace nodded . “ I understand . ”
Then he added , “ Brittany’s condition keeps relapsing . Last time , you mentioned using my cardiogen to save her . I’ll do it . Come take my cardiogen now . ”
Wendy’s lips twitched into a knowing smile . “ Are you sure you’re ready ? If I take your cardiogen , you’ll die . ”
Horace met her gaze firmly . “ I’ve already made my will . ”
He pulled out the document he had prepared and handed it to Brittany . “ Here , take a look . ”
Brittany took the papers , flipping through Horace’s will .
He had left all his property to her .
They said a man would put his money where his heart was , and this was especially true in Horace’s case . He was a man whose wealth rivaled nations , and here he was , entrusting it all to her .
Brittany blinked in surprise . “ You’re giving me everything ? ”

Horace nodded . “ You’re my wife . Of course , everything I have belongs to you . I considered leaving some to Jessica , but she’s disappointed me too much . I worry she might turn against you if she gets the money . ”
Brittany’s clear eyes grew moist , a soft shine spreading over them Horace had thought of everything for her . His love and care that had endured through the years made it extra rare and precious
Wendy smiled at Horace . “ It seems you’re truly ready . ”
Horace nodded firmly . “ Yes , I am . Take my cardiogen . ”
