Chapter 482
Stanley stared at Jessica , shaking his head , “ No way ! The child can’t be Samuel’s ! The child is mine ! ”
Jessica’s hands were tightly clenched at her sides , and she felt like she might crush her teeth from clenching them so hard .
Why was Stanley reacting like this ? Why was he so sure the child was his ?
“ Stanley , ” Jessica said , her voice a mix of frustration and disbelief , “ why are you reacting like this ? I thought you didn’t like children . Do you really want Wendy’s child to be yours ? Is that what this is about ? Do you want Wendy to keep the baby ? ”
Stanley’s eyes , normally cool and sharp , now flickered with something darker . He couldn’t explain it , but deep down , he just knew that Wendy’s child was like his .
He wanted the child to be his .
Jessica pulled something out of her bag and held it up . “ This is her pregnancy report . It clearly shows the date- she’s two weeks and three days pregnant . Do the math . Does this child line up with your timeline ? ”
Stanley glanced at the pregnancy report in Jessica’s hand , then reached out to take it from her .
The report had Wendy’s name written on it – this was definitely her pregnancy report . The dates confirmed it : Wendy was two weeks and three days pregnant .
Two weeks … It was clear now . This child wasn’t his .
The last time he had been with Wendy was over a month ago , and the previous time was two months before . During the past month , Wendy had been with Samuel .
Now , it all made sense . This child was Samuel’s .
Wendy had gotten pregnant by Samuel .
Stanley’s anger surged . No wonder Wendy had tried to deceive him when he took her to NovaHealth for an exam . She wasn’t pregnant then because the child wasn’t his at all
He had been overthinking all along .
Stanley ripped the pregnancy report to shreds with one swift motion . The pieces scattered through the air , drifting like confetti .
His chest heaved with rage as he stood there , his body tense and his face dark with fury .
Jessica reached out and wrapped her arms around him . “ Now that Wendy’s with Samuel , it’s natural she’d be carrying his child . No wonder she got so upset when we kidnapped Samuel . After all , he’s the father of her baby . ”
Stanley pressed his lips into a thin , cold line , not responding .
Jessica continued , “ Well , it’s not our problem anymore . This child belongs to Wendy and someone else . We don’t need to involve ourselves with it . ”
But before she could finish , Stanley pushed her away .
He grabbed his black suit jacket and strode out of the room .
Jessica stood frozen , stunned by his sudden departure . She quickly called after him , “ Stanley , where are you going ? Didn’t you say you were busy ? ”

Chapter 483
“ I’m going to find Wendy , ” Stanley said without looking back .
His tall figure quickly disappeared from Jessica’s sight .
Stanley was going to find Wendy !
Jessica’s frustration boiled over , and she stomped her foot in anger . Why was Stanley still chasing after Wendy ? Did he still care about her ?
But the more she thought about it , the more a wicked sense of satisfaction filled her . She wanted Wendy and Stanley to remain in this misunderstanding , forever keeping them apart !
Wendy was still at her apartment in the Royale Residences when her assistant dropped off the Lideran and Cerrosbi , then quickly left .
Alone , Wendy forced herself to drink the medicine meant to help stabilize her pregnancy . The taste was bitter , but she endured it .
Her emotions had been running too high lately , and now it felt like her pregnancy was becoming unstable .
Just then , the doorbell rang with a sharp “ ding – dong ” that cut through the silence .
Who could it be ?
Wendy walked over and opened the door .
Standing outside was Stanley – tall , poised , and as striking as ever .
She really didn’t want to see him right now . Not even a word . Without hesitation , Wendy reached out to shut the door in his face .
But before it could close , Stanley raised his hand and pressed firmly against the door .
“ Let me in ! ”
