Chapter 748
Wendy looked at Stanley . “ We’re getting married today ? ”
Stanley sat up . “ Yes . Last night , you almost drained me dry . Aren’t you going to take responsibility for that ? ”
What ? She drained him dry ?
No way ! He was the one … acting like some wild beast !
“ I don’t want to get married ! ” Wendy spat – she had never seriously thought about marrying Stanley again .
Just then , Bella wrapped her arms around Wendy’s neck . “ Mommy why won’t you marry Daddy ? ”
Wendy felt a pang of guilt . For the past three years , Bella had longed for a father and a complete family . Wendy felt she had let
Bella down .
“ Bella , I- ”
“ Oh , I get it ! Daddy must have done something wrong to make you upset , so that’s why you won’t marry Daddy . Daddy , this is all your fault ! ”
Wendy couldn’t help but smile . Bella really was her little protector , and loved her very much .
Stanley gazed at Wendy with deep emotion . “ Yes , Bella , it’s my fault . I made a lot of mistakes before , and made your mommy sad . But now , I want your mommy to give me one more chance . Bella , you keep an eye on me — if I mess up again , your mommy can leave me anytime ! ”
Bella looked at Wendy with shining eyes . “ Mommy , since Daddy made mistakes , we shouldn’t just let it slide . So please give Daddy one more chance and let him make it right , okay ? ”
Wendy laughed softly . That little rascal was so clever !
Looking into her daughter’s bright eyes , Wendy didn’t know what to say .
Stanley squeezed her small hand . “ Stop running from your feelings . I know you love me – I love you too . We’ve already wasted three years . Let’s start fresh this time . Be my Mrs. Hawk , and I’ll love you and take care of you properly . ”
Wendy’s heart softened .
Even if she didn’t want to admit it , her heart told her she still loved Stanley .
This was the man she had loved for so many years , and she still loved him .
And now , they had Bella . Maybe getting married wasn’t such a bad dea .
She opened her mouth to speak , but then came a knock at the door
Zayn’s voice called from outside , “ Mr. Hawk , Mrs. Angela has arrived ! ”
Angela was here !
Wendy remembered how Angela had insisted that Stanley marry Jessica , the richest daughter in town . After all , the Hawk and Larson families had been longtime allies , and Angela and Brittany were best friends .
Would Angela agree to Stanley marrying Wendy ?
Stanley seemed to sense what Wendy was thinking , and held her hand tightly . “ Don’t worry . I’ll talk to my mom . She likes you and Bella a lot . She’ll say yes for sure . ”
Bella loved Angela too , and she beamed . “ Mrs. Angela is here ! I want to see her ! ”
Bella jumped down from the bed and bounced out of the room .

Angela was waiting inside the CEO’s office . Soon , the lounge door opened , and Bella came running out .
Mrs. Angela ! ”
Angela quickly crouched down and scooped Bella into her arms . “ Bella , what are you doing here ? I was so worried when you went missing that I couldn’t sleep , and I came looking for you right away ! ”
Bella smiled brightly . “ Daddy brought me here . ”
Angela froze . “ Daddy ? ”
Bella nodded . “ Yeah , Mr. Handsome is my Daddy ! ”
