Chapter 498

Stanley lifted his gaze to Glinda, his voice uncertain. “Grandma…”

Halsey turned to Stanley, her expression sharp. “Stanley, has someone been feeding you lies? Was it her?”

She pointed at Jessica.

Jessica, looking guilty, stammered, “I-”

Halsey quickly connected the dots. “I knew it! Jessica must’ve said something to you, making you think the child inside Wendy isn’t yours, right?”

Glinda opened her mouth to speak, but Halsey pulled her aside urgently. “Mrs. Glinda, let’s go.”

“But…” Glinda hesitated.

“Just trust me. Let’s go!” Halsey insisted, pulling her toward the door.

As they reached the doorway, Halsey turned to Stanley, her voice cold. “Someone kidnapped Wendy. They took her into surgery, trying to forcefully terminate her pregnancy!”

Stanley froze, shock running through him. “What did you just say?”

Halsey gave a bitter laugh. “We don’t know who exactly wanted to end her pregnancy, but…”

She gave Jessica and Lilian a pointed glance. “We’ve already caught the people behind it. We’ll find out soon who wanted to harm Wendy and her baby.”

With that, Halsey tugged Glinda out of the room.

Stanley turned to Zayn, his voice tense. “Is what they said true?”

Zayn nodded, his face grim. “It’s true, Mr. Hawk. Ms. Wendy went through something horrifying tonight. Someone kidnapped her and took her to surgery, trying to force an abortion. Mrs. Glinda and Mr. Cyril both had to step in. If they’d been even a second later, Ms. Wendy and her baby would’ve been in serious danger.”

Stanley took a step forward, his concern deepening. “How is she now? Is she hurt?”

Zayn looked uneasy. “I don’t know, Mr. Hawk. When I arrived, Mrs. Glinda had me thrown out of the room. If you’re worried about Ms. Wendy, maybe you should go check on her-”

Before Zayn could finish his sentence, Stanley had already taken long strides toward the door.

Jessica called out immediately, her voice sharp. “Stanley, don’t go! Are you going to see Wendy? Didn’t you promise me you’d cut ties with her? You can’t go!”

But this time, Jessica’s words fell flat. Stanley didn’t even glance back as he marched out of the room.

Zayn followed silently.

“Stanley!” Jessica’s voice cracked with frustration as she clenched her fists in anger.

Lilian, her face troubled, whispered, “This is bad. It looks like they didn’t manage to terminate Wendy’s pregnancy after all. No wonder when I called those kidnappers and doctors earlier, no one picked up.”
