Chapter 485

Wendy froze, her eyes locking with Stanley’s.

“What did you say? Who’s the baby’s father?”

Stanley smirked, his voice dripping with mockery. “Do I really need to tell you who the baby’s father is? You should already know better than anyone. It’s Samuel!”

Wendy’s heart skipped a beat. Though she hadn’t wanted Stanley to find out about the baby, now that he had, she didn’t want him to wrongly accuse the child of being anyone else’s.

“Stanley, listen carefully,” she said, her voice unwavering. This child is not Samuel’s. It’s yours!”

She spoke those words with conviction.

Stanley paused for a moment, a flicker of surprise crossing his face before he slowly began to laugh.

“Why are you laughing?” she demanded, her frustration rising. “I’m not joking. This baby really is yours. I-”

“Enough!” Stanley cut her off, his voice sharp as he reached out and firmly gripped her delicate chin. “How dare you say this child is mine when it’s obviously Samuel’s? What do you take me for? Do you think I’m an idiot, or are you lying to me because you feel sorry for me?”

“I-”

“Listen carefully. I couldn’t care less about the child in your belly. I don’t care whose it is!”

Wendy felt like ice had suddenly settled in her chest. The words she had been meaning to say were stuck in her throat.

What was left to say? If he didn’t care, then there was no point in trying to reason with him.

With a sudden surge of defiance, she pushed her palm against his chest. “If that’s the case, then let go of me and leave.”

Stanley looked at her cold, distant expression, and something inside him snapped. He couldn’t stand the way she was acting–so detached. She had looked at him like that earlier at the cemetery, and it had been almost unbearable.

“Is Samuel really that important to you?”

“Yes!” Wendy answered without hesitation, her voice loud and firm. “No matter how many times you ask, Samuel will always be more important to me than you!”

She had said it–Samuel was more important to her than he was.

Stanley let out a bitter laugh, his tongue pressing against the inside of his cheek. “I see. Well, now he’s in my hands. Don’t you think it’s time you did something for him?”

“What do you mean?”

Stanley’s voice dropped low, a smirk playing at his lips. “For starters, you could beg me to let him go.”

“Beg you? Will you let him go if I do?”

“Who knows? At least you can try,” Stanley replied with a shrug, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

Wendy stared at him, her expression hardening. “Fine. I’m begging you. Please, let Samuel go.”

Stanley laughed cruelly. “Wendy, I’ve never seen someone Beg so half–heartedly. You’re being so insincere. Do you really need me to teach you how to beg? You were so good at it with me before. Or did you forget?”

Wendy’s eyes narrowed, her pupils shrinking slightly. She pushed him away with all her strength. “Stop dreaming. I won’t beg you like that!”
