Then we ll wait until tomorrow and see if she really can bring us that guy Edith said slamming her hand down on the table
Jessica who had been holding on to Stanley s arm pouted I guess we re homeless tonight
Stanley barely reacted I ll have my secretary arrange something You can stay in the presidential suite at a hotel for the night
Edith s eyes immediately lit up Thankyou Mr Hawk
Lilian smiled as well seizing the opportunity to add Jessica why don t you skip the hotel Mr Hawk is staying here You should stay with him tonight
Jessicalooked atStanley,herfaceglowing.”Stanley,can1-”
Stanley pulled his arm away without any emotion I have work to do tonight and won t be done until late You all goto the hotel and get some rest
With that Stanley entered his apartment slamming the door shut behind him
Jessica stood there stunned She had wanted to stay with Stanley but instead she had been met with rejection Her pride felt shattered
As of tt a ugh broke the silence It was Natalie
Natalie quickly covered her mouth Sorry I couldn the lp it
At this point with Trish and the fake Dr C eyl an s relationship falling apart the third branch was clearly not happy with the second branch s success They didn t want to let Jessica marry Stanley
Harry and Lilian also felt awkward knowing their daughter s proposal had failed
Edith stomped her foot in frustration Alright enough You re all the same Stop laughing at each other you re all just as hopeless
Jessica and Trish stood in silence
I had hoped you two would team up for a grand wedding but clearly I overestimated you I m leaving Edith
