The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 469

Chapter 469

“Stanley, please listen to me,” Jessica pleaded, her voice trembling as she tried to explain.

Stanley watched her quietly, his gaze steady and unyielding “I don’t want to hear anything else right now. I just want to know where that crystal pendant is.”

His lips curled into a cold, almost menacing smile.

“You wouldn’t be lying to me, would you?”

Jessica stiffened, her heart sinking “Lying to you? What do you mean?”

Stanley’s eyes narrowed as his voice grew more intense. “It possible that the girl who saved me all those years ago wasn’t you, but someone else? You haven’t been lying to me all this time, pretending to be her, have you?”

His eyes bore into hers with a chilling calmness, making Jesica feel an icy shiver crawl up her spine. Stanley had never looked at her like this before.

Had he figured it out? Did he realize she wasn’t the real girl from that day?

Stanley’s face remained expressionless, but the silence only deepened her unease. She had no idea how much he knew or suspected.

There was no way Jessica would admit to anything. This wasn’t just about her–it was about her life of luxury.

“I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Why would you think that?”

Her voice turned pleading, a tinge of hurt in her tone.

“I’m the one who saved you in that cave. You promised you would take me with you. You said you would take care of me. Don’t you remember?”

Stanley’s gaze darkened, his words cutting through the air like a blade. “If it were you, that would be the best outcome. I’ve spent over ten years of my life with you. If it wasn’t you… Well, you should know the consequences of lying to me.”

Zayn had once asked Stanley who he hoped the girl from that day might have been.

The truth was, Stanley didn’t know.

He just knew he felt a sense of panic rising within him.

He had invested so much in Jessica. If she wasn’t the one, that would show how foolish he had been.

And if that girl from the past was actually Wendy…

He couldn’t even bring himself to think about it. He didn’t want to remind himself of every terrible thing he had done to Wendy.

The thought of that girl being Wendy was something he couldn’t bear to consider.

Jessica shook herhead firmly. “I swear I’m not lying to you.

“Then, where is the crystal pendant? I want to see it today. I need to see it for myself. That pendant is the best proof of who you really are.”

Jessica knew she couldn’t escape this. Quickly, she said, “I have the crystal pendant.”

Stanley’s sharp eyes flickered slightly, his interest piqued. “Show me!
