Chapter 736

hapter 736

Brittany laughed softly before saying to Wendy, "Don't make fun of us!"

Jessica, standing off to the side, felt completely ignored. The warmth between Horace, Brittany, and Wendy was obvious. They appeared to be the perfect family, while she was just an intruder who didn't belong.

"Mom, Dad, I'm going upstairs," Jessica announced; she turned away without waiting for a response.

Brittany wanted to call after her, but Horace caught her arm and held her back.

"Let her leave if she wants

He figured it was better to leave Jessica out in the cold for a while, just in case she tried to pull something even more outrageous.

Wendy quickly shifted the conversation. "Mr. Larson, the aphrodisiac powder your ingested isn't just any aphrodisiac-it's from

Coldost."

Horace froze. "What? The aphrodisiac powder is from Coldost?"

"That's right. Ms. Brewer is under a curse from Coldost, and now you've been hit with an aphrodisiac powder from Coldost. That means the person poisoning Ms. Brewer must be right under your nose."

Horace furrowed his brows tightly. He had been given the aphrodisiac powder while at home, intended to make him sleep with Ida-logically, the culprit should be either Ida or Jessica.

He looked at Wendy seriously. "We need to find this person now.'

Wendy arched a brow. "There's no rush. The one who should be nervous is the perpetrator. She's bound to make her next move soon. The more she does, the more mistakes she'll make. We just have to wait and watch, then we'll catch her in the act."

Horace and Brittany nodded in agreement.

"Okay. We'll follow your lead."

Wendy smiled. "Anyway, I should get going. I've been staying here for days, and Bella misses me. Time to spend some time with my daughter."

"Alright. I'll have the driver send you home."

"No need. I'm driving myself. I'll see you again soon."

Wendy soon disappeared from view.

Horace wrapped his arm around Brittany's waist. "Wendy's gone. Why are you still staring after her? What's on your mind?"

Brittany grinned. "Are you jealous of Wendy?"

He pinched her cheek playfully. "You like her that much, huh?"

She nodded. "Yes, I really like her. Sometimes I even wonder... Why isn't she my daughter?"

Brittany's affection for Wendy was like a mother's love for her child.

Horace felt the same way. Wendy was brilliant, loyal, and had given everything to help them. Who wouldn't adore her?
