Chapter 350
Stanley gazed down at the woman in his arms , the corners of his narrow eyes lifting slightly . “ We lived under one roof before . I think that justifies me calling you my sister . ”
The shamelessness !
Wendy raised her foot to kick him .
In one smooth motion , Stanley flipped her beneath him . “ Care for round two ? ”
The fire dancing in his eyes told her he wasn’t joking . The man’s stamina was downright
terrifying .
“ Wendy , ” he murmured , trailing a finger down her cheek . “ We’ve never made love in the
morning . ”
Heat exploded across Wendy’s delicate face . This lunatic !
She shoved him off with all her strength and scrambled out of bed .
Stanley merely smirked , watching her retreat .
Stanley and Wendy went to check on Benny . After examining his leg injury , Wendy nodded approvingly at the positive progress . He had made it through the critical night .
“ You’ll keep this leg , ” she announced .
Benny glared at her . “ Well , don’t expect any thanks . ”
“ Hah , as if your gratitude would make me immortal . ”
Benny was rendered speechless .
Stanley observed their exchange silently . Though they bickered , he sensed something had shifted in Benny’s attitude toward Wendy .

“ Stanley , let’s get out of here , ” Benny grumbled .
Nodding , Stanley said , “ I need to see the village chief first . ”
He turned to leave without another word .
“ Why are you meeting the chief ? ” Benny called after him .

Watching Stanley’s retreating figure , Wendy spat , “ Maybe he’s going to bring back another lover . Jessica might have some competition. ”
Hearing Jessica’s name , Benny fell silent , his gaze darkening .

When Stanley arrived at the chief’s house , Fiona rushed out eagerly . “ Stan ! Come in ! My dad and my brother , Alec , are waiting to meet you ! ”
Inside , a lavish spread covered the table in Stanley’s honor . The chief’s eyes had lit up when Fiona mentioned Stanley owned a company .
The chief and Alec sat together . Alec had no memory of last night’s events , though his body ached inexplicably .
Rubbing his neck , Alec groaned , “ Dad , I feel like I got beaten up last night . And I keep thinking I saw some stunning woman …
“ Don’t worry , Alec , ” the chief assured him . “ I’ll find you a stunning wife and secure a wealthy husband for Fiona . ”
“ Dad , ” Fiona interrupted , “ Stan’s here ! ”
Both men stood abruptly . Their eyes gleamed brighter at the sight of Stanley’s aristocratic bearing – some people simply radiated wealth and power , and Stanley was the perfect
example .
The chief stepped forward eagerly . “ You must be Mr. Hawk! What an honor ! ” He extended
his hand .
Stanley didn’t move .

Ignoring them , Stanley fixed his hawk – like gaze on Alec . He strode forward , each step
measured .
Alec frowned in confusion . “ Mr. Hawk , what- ”
Crack !
Stanley’s fist connected with Alec’s jaw , sending him crashing into the wall . Blood trickled from Alec’s lip .
Grabbing Alec’s collar , Stanley hissed , “ Now you remember who beat you up ? How dare
you covet my woman ! ”
His fists rained down like a storm .
