Hearing his heartfelt confession Wendy lifted her hand and placed it against the door She longed to see him but for his own sake they could only speak through the door
Her red lips lifted in a soft smile I promise that I won t leave you
No matter what impossible challenges lay ahead as long as they faced them side by side there was no doubt they could overcome anything
Stanley s thin lips curled into a faints mile That s all I want to hear
Outsidethedoor, HoraceandBrittanywatchedtheirconnectionwithwarmth.
Horace stepped forward We share responsibility for this Heart chain Curse Wendy is our goddaughter now Don t worry we ll help both of you
Stanley blinked surprised to learn that Horace and Brittany had taken Wendy in as their goddaughter What Wendy s your Brittany chuckled We like Wendy a lot so we made her our goddaughter We re even planning a big party to announce her status From now on we ll take good care of her
Stanley smiled feeling a deep happiness He knew Horace and Brittany would be great parents to Wendy To have two more people who loved her was something he fully welcomed
Horace patted Stanley on the shoulder In ever thought that after all this time you d still end up as my son in law
Horacesuddenlyrememberedsomething.”Butdidn’tyouoncesayyou’dnevermarryadaughterfromthe Larsonfamily-‘
Stop Stanley quickly cut him off finally understanding how he had shot himself in the foot I m glad to be your son in law
Stanley had just called himself Horace and Brittany s son in law
Inside the room Wendy laughed quietly to herself If it weren t for the Heart chain Curse she and Stanley would have been
marriedbynow.
Horace grinned You re getting a little ahead of yourself You ll be our son in law once you ve officially registered your marriage with Wendy
Brittany nodded in agreement Wendy calls the shots You ll have to get through her first
The mood was light and easy but suddenly Stanley s face went pale A sharp pain started pounding in his head again
Stanley Horace caught him to keep him steady
Inside Wendy sensed his distress and anxiously called out Stanley are you okay
Stanley shook his head I m fine

Wendy thought for a moment You can t just keep taking the pain We have to turn the tables and take control
Horace asked Have you come up with a plan
Brittany smiled You ve always been smart and full of ideas I m sure you ve figured something out
Wendy replied I have an idea
Stanley called out outside the door What s your plan
She paused then asked quietly Will you do as I say
“OfcourseIwill.”
Wendy took a deep breath You should marry Jessica
