Chapter 90
George s grip tightened With a tearing sound Wendy s collar was ripped open exposing her delicate pale skin to
thecoldair.
A wave of memories hit Wendy taking her back to years age in a similar cave where she had been pinned beneath George The foul stench of his body pressed down on her and helplessness and fear engulfed her like a tidal wave She felt as though she was suffocating as though she was about to die
That young version of Wendy had been so close to death
She thought of Big Brother Why wasn the here
Suddenly Wendy felt a weight press down on her again George had leaned over her She closed her eyes bitterly realizing that even after all these years when she found herself in a similar situation her first thought was still of Stanley
She had grownup in some ways but in other ways she hadn t She still longed for Stanley to come for her
Deep down she knew he would never come
Wendy reached for her waist
But before she could do anything a foot kicked out sending George flying off her The force of the blow sent him crashing into the cave wall with aloud bang and a spurt of blood erupted from his mouth
Wendy froze her eyes darting upward A handsome dignified face filled her vision
It was Stanley Stanley had come
The person who had been a fleeting thought just moments ago was now standing before her Wendy blinked unsure of how to react

She stared at him as if she hadn t even imagined he would come to her rescue
Stanley s heartache d He quickly removed his coat and draped it over her fragile shoulders his voice soft but reassuring It s okay now
Wendy finally felt the warmth of his coat against her chilled skin a tangible reminder that he had really come
George bloodied and broken knew it was over for him

Wendy turned her gaze to Stanley Without a word Stanley stepped forward and delivered another crushing kick to George s chest
George collapsed again coughing up more blood

Stanley s gaze was sharp and unforgiving like a predator staring down prey Where did you crawl out from How dare you touch my wife
Mr Hawk I I m sorry Please forgive me George trembled begging for mercy
