Chapter 712

Horace didn’t pull away. He just let her vent her frustration.

He lay back down on the bed and wrapped Brittany gently in his arms. “Do you remember Wendy?” Brittany nodded. “Yes, I remember.”

“She has amazing medical skills. She’s the wonder doctor, Dr. Ceylan. She even cured Angela’s legs.”

Brittany smiled brightly. “Really? That’s fantastic! I never expected her to be that skilled. For some reason, whenever I see that young woman, I feel this urge to get close to her–but I don’t feel the same with Jessica.”

In truth, Horace felt the same way. However, the DNA test confirmed Jessica was their biological daughter.

Horace studied the fatigue in Brittany’s pale eyes. “I’ll call Wendy and ask her to come take a look at you.”

Brittany hesitated. “Do you think she’ll come? I’ve only met her once.”

Horace shrugged. “Let me make the call and see.”

He picked up his phone.

Brittany looked up at him. “You really seem to care about me, although I’m your ex–wife.”

Horace tightened his arm around her. “For the last time, we’re not divorced. You’re not my ex–wife–you’re Mrs. Larson!” Brittany rolled her eyes.

Horace dialed Wendy’s number. The call connected quickly, and Wendy’s voice came through. “Hello, Mr. Larson.”

“Wendy, I need a favor.”

“Sure. You’ve helped me before, so I’ll help anyway I can.”

“Brittany’s having some health issues. I want to ask if you could come by and check on her.”

Without hesitation, Wendy replied, “Of course. Where are you two? I’ll come find you.”

“We’re at Brewer Enterprise,” Horace answered. “I’ll have my assistant pick you up.”

“No need. I’ll come on my own. See you soon.”

After the call ended, Brittany’s face lit up. “Is Wendy really coming over?”

Horace nodded. “Yes.”

Brittany tried to sit up. “Then I should get up.”

Horace held her firmly. “Just stay here. She’ll check on you when she gets here.”

Reluctantly, Brittany lay back down. “Alright, I’ll stay here. But you should get off the bed.”

Horace brushed her hand, noting how her skin had warmed up. He shot her a sideways glance. “A minute ago, you wanted me to hold you tight–and now, you want to kick me off? You’re so cold.”

Brittany raised an eyebrow. “You called me Mrs. Larson when you grabbed my hand, and now you’re back to calling me Brittany. Who’s the cold one here?”

Horace was speechless. He wasn’t about to get up, though, and still held her close. “Let me hold you a bit longer. Wendy isn’t here yet.”

“By the time she gets here, it’ll be too late. You don’t want her to walk in and see us in bed, do you?”
