Wendy stared at Justin in shock. “Wait, Mr. Morton, you must have called the wrong person…”
Her words trailed off when the towering figure blocked her view, casting a heavy shadow over her. Stanley had stepped right in front of her.
With eyes sharp as daggers, Stanley glanced at Halsey before his gaze locked onto Wendy. “Who started the fight? Step forward!”
The anger radiating from him was palpable, and Halsey instinctively took a step back in fear.
Halsey even reached out and gave Wendy a little push, sending her stumbling straight into the man’s chest.

Stanley’s lips pressed into a cold, sharp line. “I’ll take them back to clean up first.”
Justin nodded. “Alright.”

Stanley didn’t enter the dorm and instead stood outside with a gentlemanly air. Wendy went inside to take a hot shower, freshening herself up.
