But now Horace actually found away to save Brittany though it came at a terrifying price of his own life This unexpected move completely blindside dId a flipping the situation from her favor to one where she had tio control
SheabsolutelycouldnotletHorace saveBrittany.Horacebelongedtoher!
IfHoracesacrificedhimselftosaveBrittanyandthenleftallhisfortuneto her,Idawouldbeleftwithnothing
All these years of careful scheming all the youth she had wasted on Horace all would have been for naught Could a villa and some money ever makeup for that
Ida looked down on such things
Whatshe wantedwasHoracehimself,thetitleofMrs.Larson,andeverylastdollarofhisfortune.
She was convinced that all of it should goto her and her alone
Ida stepped into Jessica s room where Jessica was trying on custom gowns she had just received The past three years as the daughter of the richest man had left her spending recklessly
SinceWendyhadarrivedintheCapital,lifehadn’tbeeneasyforJessica.Shoppingwasthe onlythingthatbrought heranyjoy.Ida’ssuddenentrancestartledJessica,whoquicklycoveredherself”Whydidn’tyouknock?I’mchanging!”
Ida s face darkened Hurry up and get dressed Your good days are coming to an end
Whatdidshemean?
Jessica slipped on her dress and looked at Ida What are you talking about What happened
Horace is already making his will Ida said flatly
What Why would Dad be making a will if he s perfectly fine
Jessica was still clueless utterly shocked by the news
“He’sfoundawaytosaveBrittany,butitrequires alifeforalife,”Idacontinued.”Heplanstogivehisowntosavehers,whichiswhyhe’smakingthewill.”
What?
Jessica’sfacewentpale.Shedidn’t wantBrittanytolive;rather,shewishedBrittanywouldjustdropdeadalready.
“Anddoyouknow what’sinhiswill?”Idaasked.
Jessica s heart skipped a beat her eyes lighting up
She was Horace s only biological daughter Was she about to inherit everything
She almost laughed out loud If that was the case then Horace might as well die
Ida looked at Jessica already seeing through all her thoughts and sneered Don t get your hopes up Your name isn t mentioned in his will at all
Jessica froze Why Aren tI his daughter
Idasmiledcruelly.
Horace and Brittany aren t divorced Brittany is still his legal wife and the primary heir He plans to leave everything to Brittany As for you he said that if you can manage to win Brittany s favor someday maybe she will share something with you But from what I see she isn t close to you at all Winning her over would be virtually impossible That means you ll get nothing
