Chapter 755

They were closing already?

Wendy stood up, her legs stift from waiting all day at the courthouse for Stanley. People had come and gone around her, but there was still no sign of him.

She looked at the clerk. “Can I make one more phone call?”

The clerk nodded kindly. “You’ve waited all day. We’ll stay a little longer with you. If he really wants to marry you, he’ll show up. But if he doesn’t, then maybe it’s time to stop waiting.”

Wendy’s voice trembled as she said, “Okay.”

She pulled out her phone and dialed Stanley’s number again.

Suddenly, a cheerful ringtone sounded. Someone was calling her.

Could it be Stanley?

Wendy quickly grabbed her phone, but it wasn’t him. It was Halsey

She felt a pang of disappointment but answered anyway. “Hey.”

“Hey! Did you get your license? Congratulations!”

“We haven’t gotten the license yet.”

Halsey paused. “You haven’t? Why not? Where are you? I’m coming to find you!”

Stanley was still inside his luxury car when a sharp pain shot through his head, like it was about to explode. Soon, everything

When he opened his eyes again, darkness had fallen outside.

He sat up slowly, his face pale. He had no idea what was wrong with his body, or why he suddenly had this pounding headache.
