Jessica and Ida had left Though the secret of Ida sCold ost 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 calms ip of her tea Of course he will Just get ready to be a bride Only I can break the Heart chain Curse inside him

Jessica said sweetly Thanks 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 san invitation
Ida took it in her hand To what
She unfolded the gold embossed card Jessica leaned into see it and their expressions instantly darkened
The maid trembled as she said I heard that Mr and Mrs Larson have taken Ms Wendy in as their goddaughter The Larson s are throwing a grand party to celebrate They re inviting all the elite families in the Capital They sent this invitation asking asking you to attend
What?
Jessica shot to her feet furious What the hell They actually took Wendy in as their goddaughter
Ida s face grew cold She thought she had won the battle by having Jessica call her Mom but she hadn t expected Horace and Brittany to take Wendy in as their goddaughter so quickly
The fact was Wendy was Horace and Brittany s true daughter

Jessica s heart sank deep
She just couldn t understand why she had schemed so had to be Horace and Brittany s daughter She had done everything to stop Wendy from claiming her true heritage

If Wendy s identity came to light Jessica would lose all value
