The Heartbreak Prescription (by Glazed Snow) novel Chapter 684

Chapter 684

Wendy turned her head and saw a woman dressed in a flowing gown. Her name was Ida Olsen, a classic beauty in her forties with soft, delicate, well–maintained features.

Wendy had never seen a woman close to Horace before. She had heard that Horace and his original wife, Brittany, had divorced some years back.

Wendy looked at Ida and asked, “Mr. Larson, who is she? How should I address her?”

Horace glanced at Ida and said, “Just call her Ms. Olsen. That’s what everyone here calls her. Ida, this is Ms. Crone.

When Horace said “Ms. Olsen“, Wendy caught a flicker of disappointment flash across Ida’s eyes. However, it vanished almost immediately.

Ida smiled politely. “Hi, Ms. Crone.”

Wendy responded with a nod, “Hi, Ms. Olsen.”

Ida turned to Horace and asked, “Why have you been abroad so long this time?”

Horace pressed his lips together. “I finally found Jessica’s mother.”

What?!

Wendy was stunned. She hadn’t been sure whether Jessica’s mother was still alive, but now, Horace had confirmed she was, and that he had found her.

Ida’s face went pale. “So, she’s still alive?”

“She is,” Horace replied. “She’s just been in a deep coma all these years, but now she’s awake. I’ve told her everything about Jessica. She’ll be returning to the country soon to see her.”

Ida’s expression twisted into something complicated, but then she quickly said, “Back then, Brittany misunderstood our relationship. When she comes back, you should explain everything properly. Maybe you two can rekindle what you had.”

Horace’s voice turned cold.

“She wanted the divorce, and she left. There’s no future for us.”

With that, he turned around and walked away.

Ida smiled faintly to herself. “Ms. Crone, I’ve already arranged a room for you. If you need anything, just ask.”

Wendy looked at Ida, noticing how she carried herself like the lady of the house.

She had heard that Ida was Horace’s first love–the one who got away. Later, Horace married Brittany in a marriage alliance. When Brittany discovered Horace was still tangled with Ida behind her back, she pushed through the divorce without a second thought.

Ida was the biggest winner in all of it.

But Ida hadn’t completely won, because even after all these years since Brittany left, she was still just “Ms. Olsen “. Horace had never married her.

Wendy nodded. “Alright. Thank you, Ms. Olsen.”

Wendy

settled into the Larson family’s estate. She had to keep an eye on Jessica.

The one who should be the most worried wasn’t her it was Jessica.

Bella and Angela were still in Jessica’s hands, and the people working for her who hadn’t seen her would definitely start to get anxious. That kind of anxiety could easily lead to mistakes and exposure.

Jessica stayed locked away in her room when her kidnappers called again. “Hi, Ms. Larson.”

Jessica’s heart raced. She lowered her voice sharply. “Why are you calling again? I already told you, I’ll call when it’s time. Stop calling me! My dad’s at home now–if he overhears, we’re all doomed!”

It wasn’t just Horace–Wendy was here, too. Jessica was living in constant fear.

One of the men in black on the other end assured her, “Don’t worry. This call is untraceable. As long as you’re careful, nothing will go wrong.”

“But-

“You were supposed to come today! Why didn’t you? You stood us up!”
