Stanley looked at them Wendy still won t see me
No she won t Halsey replied coldly and she already said that once the situation with the Crone family is settled she ll leave with Mr Samuel
Stanley s eyes reddened A few days ago in the hospital room he had overheard Wendy telling Samuel that she was leaving Hove n dale that she would leave with Samuel
And now her decision hadn t changed

Wendy returned to her room After drinking a glass of warm milk before bed she stood by the window and looked out
Suddenly she saw Stanley stall elegant figure standing below her apartment building
Stanley was standing right beneath her window though she had no idea for how long He stood there silently as if waiting perhaps hoping to catch a glimpse of her
As if sensing her presence he slowly raised his gaze and me the reyes
For a moment their gazes locked lingering in the air between them

Stanley continued to send another text I have so much to say to you If you don t want to see me I ll keep standing here until you re ready to talk
Wendy stared at the messages for a few seconds in silence Then she typed two words and sent them
[Comeup.]
Two minutes later the doorbell rang
Wendy walked over and opened the door There standing in front of her was Stanley
He had rushed up as quickly as he could his face filled with excitement
