Stanley stood tall by the floor–to–ceiling windows, his long legs and imposing figure casting a shadow in the room. His cold, dark eyes seemed as if they were pools of ink–deep, distant, and dangerous.

“Do you think this can be solved with just an apology? You should leave.”

Ursula’s eyes filled with tears, and she begged, her voice trembling, “Stanley, please, I’m begging you! When you were a child, we used to hold you. Paul’s our only child, so please let him go. I swear we will discipline him properly from now on.”

Stanley didn’t flinch. His voice was cold as he gave the order. “Zayn, show them out.”

Zayn immediately gestured toward the door, his voice polite but firm. “Mr. and Mrs. Andrews, please follow me.”

Frank’s face turned red with anger. “Stanley, are you really going to be this heartless? Just because of a girl like Wendy? I’ve done my research–Wendy’s just some country girl with poor grades! Is she worth it? You’re willing to tear apart the relationship between the Hawk and Andrews families for someone like her?”

Stanley didn’t respond, only giving Zayn a brief glance.

Zayn stepped forward, his expression neutral. “Mr. and Mrs. Andrews, would you prefer to leave on your own, or should I have someone escort you out?”

Frank’s fury flared. “You little… Fine, we’ll leave on our own!”

Frank and Ursula stormed out of Saville Villa. Once they were outside, Frank’s anger exploded.

“Stanley is completely unreasonable! He has no respect for anyone! It’s infuriating!”

Ursula grabbed his sleeve, her face filled with worry. “Honey, Paul is in his hands. What are we going to do if he refuses to release Paul? He’s our only son–if something happens to him, the Andrews family will be finished. You have to think of something to get him back!”

Despite his anger, Frank realized he couldn’t do much. After all, Paul had caused all this trouble. If it escalated, it would be difficult to control.

Yet, Stanley had been unyielding and even had them thrown out without a second thought.

Just when Frank was at a loss, an idea suddenly struck him.

“I think I have a plan. There’s someone who can help.”

Ursula’s eyes widened with hope. “Who? Who can help us?

Frank #miled as he stated, “Jessica.”

Ursula’s face lit up, as if she had just found a lifeline. “Yes, that’s it! We can ask Jessica for help. She’s Stanley’s favorite. If she says something, Stanley will definitely listen and let Paul go!”

Half an hour later, Frank and Ursula arrived at the Crone family’s villa, bringing with them several luxury gifts. “Ms. Crone, we brought you some new designer bags and bracelets. We weren’t sure if you’d like them.” The Andrews family’s visit was a big deal, so Harry, Lilian, and Jessica were all waiting in the living room to greet them.

The Andrews family was part of the upper crust, with close ties to the Hawk family. A family like the Crone’s

could never usually expect such attention.

Looking at the lavish gifts, Jessica couldn’t help but feel pleased. It wasn’t that she was particularly fond of these gifts–Stanley spoiled her with designer items all the time. She had grown accustomed to receiving the latest limited–edition items as soon as they were available.

What made her happy now was the fact that the Andrews family had lowered themselves to seek her favor. It was a kind of honor.

Being part of the elite circles was important, especially since she planned to marry Stanley. She knew the importance of making connections and expanding her network among the wealthy and influential. She had been maintaining a good rapport with Stanley’s social circle.

Jessica smiled, her lips curling up in satisfaction. “I love them. Mr. and Mrs. Andrews, you really shouldn’t have gone to such trouble.”

Frank got straight to the point. “Ms. Crone, to be honest, we need your help.”

Since being slapped by Harry at the police station, Lilian had been more subdued. Now, she was serving tea, her voice laced with surprise as she addressed the couple.

drews, Mrs. Andrews, what is it that Jessica could help you with?”
