The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 30

Chapter 30

The phone clicked off with two beeps, and Stanley was left staring at the screen in stunned silence.

That damned woman actually hung up on him!

At that moment, the butler Freddy walked over. Stanley gave him an order, “Freddy, call Wendy and tell her that Grandma isn’t feeling well. We need her to come back immediately!”
