Stanley furrowed his brow, shaking his head in denial. “It can’t be Jessica.”

Glinda snorted, clearly unconvinced. “Do you trust her that much?”

“It’s not about trusting her,” Stanley replied quickly, his voice firm. “It’s that she wouldn’t have a reason to do something like that. The child Wendy is carrying is Samuels, and Jessica doesn’t have a beef with Samuel. Why would she go through all this trouble to get rid of Samuel’s child? Doesn’t that logic seem off to you?”

Glinda’s eyes sharpened, and she smirked. “Yes, it’s true that Jessica wouldn’t have any reason to harm Samuel’s child–unless, of course, the child Wendy’s carrying isn’t actually Samuel’s, right?”

Stanley froze, his mind catching up with hier words. He looked at Glinda and Halsey, confusion growing in his eyes.

“What exactly are you trying to say?”

Both Glinda and Halsey were well aware of Stanley’s misunderstanding regarding the child Wendy was carrying. He had always believed it wasn’t his.

Now, they decided it was time for him to uncover the truth for himself.

“We’re not saying anything,” Glinda responded, her tone smooth and knowing. “The truth speaks for itself. Talk to the kidnappers and the doctor. Ask them who’s pulling the strings behind all this. If it turns out Jessica is the one behind it, you’ll need to reconsider who the father of Wendy’s child really is.”

With that, Glinda and Halsey walked into the ward.

Stanley stood frozen outside, a sharp pang of realization hitting him. He was smart enough to understand that both Glinda and Halsey had been subtly hinting that the child was his.

But how could that be possible?

He had seen the pregnancy report, and the timing didn’t add up.

Cyril glanced at Stanley. “You’re a smart guy. How did you let your emotions blind your logic?”

Stanley didn’t respond. Instead, his voice hardened as he muttered, “I’m going to find out who’s really behind this.

Stanley entered the small, dimly lit room where the kidnappers and the doctor were tied up, crouching on the ground. The moment they saw Stanley, fear flashed in their eyes.

Everyone knew Stanley, the wealthiest man in Hovendale. His reputation was unmatched.

Zayn pulled over a chair for Stanley. He sat, his gaze icy as he looked down at the prisoners.

“So, who’s the mastermind behind all this? I hear none of you are willing to speak.”

The kidnappers and the doctor remained silent.

Zayn handed over several manila envelopes and Stanley took one. He casually opened it, pulling out the first file inside.

“Gus Robson, from Sunridge. You have an eight–year–old daughter who just started first grade, right?”

Gus‘ emotions flared, his voice rising in panic. “M–Mr. Hawk, what are you going to do? My daughter is just a kid -don’t involve her! Please, don’t hurt her!”
