Stanley pressed the button to answer the call . “ Itello , Mom . ”
“ You’re back in the Capital , right ? Why don’t you come over to the family estate for dinner ? I’d love to have you here . ”
Stanley couldn’t refuse that request , of course . “ Sure . ”
Soon , the Rolls – Royce business car pulled up to the Hawk mily estate’s expansive lawn . Stanley stepped out and walked into the house .
Angela was sitting on the sela , accompanied by someone else – Jessica .
In the three years since they last met , Jessica had only grown more stunning . As the daughter of the richest man in the world , she had been living a life of luxury and success .
Angela beamed as she saw Stanley . “ Stanley , you’re back ! ”
Jessica also brightened up immediately . She stood and hurried over to Stanley with a smile . “ Hey , Stanley ! ”
Stanley hadn’t expected to see Jessica here . He pursed his lips and with a cool and distant expression , asked , “ What are you doing here ? ”
“ Jessica knew you were coming back today , so she’s been waiting for you . Look at how thoughtful your fiancée is ! I hope you two can get married soon so I can hold my grandchild , ” Angela quickly explained .
Jessica gazed at Stanley with affection , her eyes full of longing as she said softly , “ I can’t wait to marry him soon . ”
Angela , with a pleased smile , added , “ I’ve already had someone pick out a few good dates for the wedding . Why don’t you take a look ? ”
“ No need to look , ” Stanley immediately replied . “ I’m not marrying Jessica . ”
The words hung in the air , and both Angela and Jessica froze .

Stanley turned his attention back to Jessica . “ It’s important to know your place . You know I don’t have feelings for you, and I’m not going to marry you . Stop throwing yourself at me – it’ll just make me despise you even more . ”
With that , Stanley turned and began climbing the stairs .
Jessica’s face turned pale . The life of luxury as the richest man’s daughter had always kept her above others , but now , there was only one person who could treat her so coldly – Stanley .
She called out after him , her voice trembling , “ Is Wendy the reason you won’t marry me ? ”
At the mention of “ Wendy “ , Stanley paused mid – step .
Jessica pressed on , “ You’ve been looking for her all this time , haven’t you ? You just came back from a trip . You were looking for her again , weren’t you ? ”
Stanley didn’t turn around , but his voice was steady as he answered , “ Yes . ”
Jessica’s hands , hanging by her sides , immediately clenched into fists .
Three years had passed , and she thought she had won .
When Wendy had disappeared without a trace three years ago , Jessica believed she had won , but Stanley had never let go of Wendy .
Even though Wendy wasn’t there anymore , she was still the insurmountable barrier between Stanley a
sica .
Wendy hadn’t even done anything , yet it always felt like Jessica kept losing .

The bitterness swelled in Jessica’s chest . She just couldn’t accept
Angela , sitting in her wheelchair , was clearly irritated . “ You’ve really lost your mind ! Wendy’s long gone , left with another man . And here you are , stuck waiting for her like a fool . You should appreciate what’s in front of you – Jessica is the one who deserves
you . ”
Stanley still didn’t look back . After a brief silence , he spoke again , is voice firm .
“ The only person I’ve ever loved is Wendy . I loved her then , I love her now , and I’ll love her forever . ”
With that , he strode upstairs , his tall , commanding figure quickly disappearing into his study .
Angela clenched her hands in frustration . “ Stanley is so stubborn ! What’s so great about Wendy ? ”
She turned to comfort Jessica , placing a hand on her shoulder .
“ Don’t worry , Jessica . Wendy won’t be coming back . Stanley will come around . You’re the only one I’ve chosen to be my daughter – in – law . ”
