Stanley furrowed his brow shaking his head in denial It can t be Jessica
Glinda snorted clearly unconvinced Do you trust her that much
It s not about trusting her Stanley replied quickly his voice firm It s that she wouldn t have a reason to do something like that The child Wendy is carrying is Samuel s and Jessica doesn t have a beef with Samuel Why would she go through all this trouble to get rid of Samuel s child Doesn t that logic seem off to you
Glinda s eyes sharpened and she smirked Yes it s true that Jessica wouldn t have any reason to harm Samuel s child unless of course the child Wendy s carrying isn t actually Samuel s right
Stanley froze his mind catching up with hier words He looked at Glinda and Halsey confusion growing in his eyes
What exactly are you trying to say
Both Glinda and Halsey were well aware of Stanley s misunderstanding regarding the child Wendy was carrying He had always believed it wasn this
Now they decided it was time for him to uncover the truth for himself
We re not saying anything Glinda responded her tone smooth and knowing The truth speaks for itself Talk to the kidnappers and the doctor Ask them who s pulling the strings behind all this If it turns out Jessica is the one behind it you ll need to reconsider who the father of Wendy s child really is
With that Glinda and Halsey walked into the ward
Stanley stood frozen outside a sharp pang of realization hitting him He was smart enough to understand that both Glinda and Halsey had been subtly hinting that the child was his
But how could that be possible
He had seen the pregnancy report and the timing didn t add up
CyrilglancedatStanley.”You’reasmart guy.Howdidyouletyouremotionsblindyourlogic?”
Stanley didn t respond Instead his voice hardened as he muttered I m going to find out who s really behind this

Stanley scold unreadable gaze swept across the room his eyes scanning each of their faces He gave a thin almost imperceptible smile one that could barely be called a smirk
