Jessica feeling the pressure of the moment began to urge Stanley
At that point Halsey sneered What s the rush Mr Finn ley is an old acquaintance of yours right Didn t you get him to help rescue Mr Hawk all those years ago
Cecelia gasped in realization Wait a second Jessica Why does it seem like you don t recognize Mr Finn ley
Stanley immediately sensed something was off Just moments ago Jessica had shown nothing but disdain for Finn ley treating him like a complete stranger
Stanley fixed his gaze on Jessica You don t recognize Finn ley

Lilian too had noticed something wasn t right She hadn t expected such a turn of events at such a crucial time She quickly interjected Mr Hawk we should proceed with the surgery first They can catchup afterward Edith also urged Yes Mr Hawk The surgery is critical to Jessica s heart We should focus on that Just then Wendy s voice clear and sharp broke through Jessica are you still pretending at this point Halsey smirked Your attempts to cover up the truth are pathetic
Stanley turned to Wendy his patience wearing thin What exactly are you trying to say
Ceceliachimedin.”We’renottryingtosayanything.We’rejusttelling youthetruth.”
Stanley s brow furrowed What truth
Finn ley stepped forward his eyes locking on to Stanley How can you claim that Jessica is your savior
Stanley s mind clicked and he stiffened His lips pressed into a cold line Isn t she
