The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 500

Chapter 500

Stanley stood there, silent, feeling like a rat in the street–everyone was out to get him now.

Nobody wanted him around.

“Grandma, I just want to see Wendy,” he said softly.

Glinda sighed, her patience worn thin. “Fine. Just one look.

Stanley sat down at the edge of the bed, his gaze fixed on Wendy’s delicate face. Without thinking, he reached out to touch her.

Glinda swatted his hand away with a sharp–smack, glaring at him. “I only said you could look, not touch!”

Stanley fell silent, withdrawing his hand. “What did the doctor say? How’s the baby? Is it alright?”

Glinda shot him a sharp look. “Thanks for your concern. Wendy and the baby are both fine.”

Stanley pressed his lips together, absorbing the information in silence..

Glinda’s voice softened, but her words were pointed. “Wendy’s pregnant now. Don’t you want to be a father?” The room fell quiet, her words barely a whisper as she asked him under the soft glow of the lights.

Stanley hesitated, his expression unreadable. “I never thought about it.”

Glinda’s smile grew. “Well, now’s a good time to think about it. Imagine Wendy having a son or a daughter, someone who looks like you or her, someone who’ll call you ‘Dad‘, begging for you to carry him or her. How adorable would that be?”

She even caught herself smiling at the thought, imagining holding her great–grandchild at last.

Stanley raised an eyebrow, glancing at her. “Do you still think the baby inside Wendy is mine? Do you actually think you’re about to get a great–grandchild?”

Glinda blinked, a little taken aback.

“I’ve already told you,” Stanley said with quiet frustration, ‘that baby isn’t mine. You need to wake up.”

He was saying it for her own good. The higher the hopes, the bigger the disappointment would be when the truth

came out.

Glinda, speechless, extended her arm and smacked the back of his head. “How did our family end up with someone like you?”

Stanley rubbed the back of his head, trying to avoid a smile. “If you hit me again, I’m gonna hve to start hitting you back.”

Glinda was beyond irritated now. “Get out! I shouldn’t have let you stay! Get out, now!”

Two seconds later, Stanley found himself standing outside the hospital room.

Thud!

Glinda slammed the door shut behind him.

Stanley sighed, his frustration growing.

Halsey, leaning against the wall, chuckled. “That was quick Did Grandma throw you out?”

Stanley gave her a blank look. “Where are the kidnappers and the doctor? Have they said anything about who’s behind all this?”

Just then, Cyril walked over, his face grim.

“Stanley,” Cyril greeted.
