Wendy was inside her villa when she opened the front door to find a tall, handsome figure standing there–it was Stanley.

Why was he here? Wasn’t he supposed to be having dinner with Jessica?

He hadn’t gone to the courthouse to get their marriage license two lays ago. During hadn’t looked for her, or even offered an explanation.

the past two days, he hadn’t contacted her,

No matter how much Wendy trusted Stanley’s character, she couldn’t help but feel some resentment. She didn’t want to see him

now.

Wendy reached out, intending to close the door and

ut Stanley out.

But Stanley pressed his hand firmly against the door, stopping it from closing. He looked at Wendy and pleaded, “Please don’t close the door.”

Wendy’s clear eyes met his handsome face. “Mr. Hawk,

What are you doing here?”

Stanley smiled faintly. “You’re back to calling me Mr. Hawk? That sounds so distant. We’re supposed to get married.”

The nerve of him to bring that up!

Wendy stared at him. “Yes, we were, but you never showed up, remember?”

“Please let me explain.”

“Sure. I’m giving you a chance now. Fire away.”

“Please let me in. I’ll explain everything once I’m inside.”

Wendy hesitated for a moment, then opened the door and let Stanley in.

They moved to the living room, where Stanley reached out and gently took hold of Wendy’s arm. “Are you angry at me?”

Her expression was cold. “I’m not.”

Stanley raised an eyebrow. “But you look angry. You waited for me all day at the courthouse, didn’t you? And I didn’t show up. That’s why you’re angry.”

Inside, Stanley felt pleased. Wendy being angry at him meant she still cared, that she loved him deeply.

Despite all the years and hardships, their hearts had never truly drifted apart.

Wendy looked at Stanley. “Do you find this funny? Do you enjoy toying with

me like this?”

Stanley shook his head. “I’m not playing games. I had my reasons for not going to the courthouse that day.‘

“What reasons? Tell me.”

Stanley paused, unsure how to explain, as he still hadn’t figured out the full truth himself.

His silence only made Wendy angrier. “If you have nothing to say, then you can leave now.”

She began gathering her things.
