Ida’sbreath caughtinherthroat.She tookastepforward,clearlyshaken.”Areyoureallygoingtogiveup yourlifetosaveher?”
Iam I didn t want to keep this from you he said calmly Your father once did a great favor for the Larson family I owe it to him to make sure you retaken care of before anything happens It the least I can do to repay that debt
A debt of gratitude Was that all their relationship had ever meant to him Was that truly the only tie between them a favor repaid and nothing more
Ida looked at Horace her voice trembling with emotion This is madness You re still so young you ve built an empire and reached the very top of the business world How can you throw all that away just to save Brittany I can t let you do this There has to be another way
To Ida Brittany s life was worth nothing How could Horace be so willing to sacrifice himself for her
No.Absolutelynot!
This decision is final Horace said his voice calm but firm You don t have to talk me out of it
“Horace!”
If there s nothing else I d like you to leave now
Ida knew Horace well enough to understand once he had made up his mind noone could change it
Sheglancedatthewilllyingonhisdesk.”Howareyouplanningtodivideyourestate?Jessica’syour only daughter.Areyouplanningtoleaveeverythingtoher?”
Rightnow,Jessicawasheronlyleverage.Idawantedto knowexactlyhowvaluablethatcardwas.
If Horace was willing to leave all his wealth to Jessica then that was something she could accept
She waited anticipation building in her chest
But Horace pressed his lips into a tight line I m not leaving my fortune to Jessica
Ida was stunned Why not She s your daughter the only legitimate heiress
You re mistaken My legal heir is my wife Brittany and I are still married She is still Mrs Larson
Ida s face drained of color So you re leaving everything to Brittany
Horacenodded.
Yes Brittany will inherit everything Jessica is spoiled and reckless She even disrespects her mother when things don t go her way I can t trust her with my estate If she gets it all she ll have no reason to treat Brittany with respect That s why Brittany will inherit it If Jessica learns to honor her mother in the future Brittany will take care of her
When Ida heard that she clenched her hands tightly into fists at her sides Her nails dug into her palms but she even feel the pain
Horace was giving everything to Brittany
He was worried that Jessica would mistreat Brittany if she inherited it herself
Everything Everything was for Brittany

All he thought about was Brittany
Ida was burning with rage but she couldn t let it show She drew in a deep breath calming her emotions Well it s your estate
you to You have every right to decide what happens to it I ll leave
Horace nodded Alright
As soon as Ida stepped out of the study her expression darkened like a gathering storm
She had been the one who put the curse on Brittany It was the Co lost Curse the coldest and most wicked of all curses Back then she had used it to defeat Brittany
For years now she had held the upper hand She had always been the one in control
Even with Brittany back in the country Ida had never once felt fear
