Chapter 508

"Are you okay, Samuel? Have you been eating well? Is anyone bothering you?" Wendy asked.

Stanley watched Wendy as she spoke, her face filled with genuine concern for Samuel. The worry and care were unmistakable, no trace of it being forced.

Stanley turned away, unwilling to look or listen.

"I'm fine. Don't worry." Samuel's voice came through the phone, light and teasing. "Mr. Hawk has been treating me really well since he brought me here. I think I've even gained a little weight."

Wendy knew Samuel was just trying to comfort her. A small smile tugged at her lips. "Hang in there. I've agreed to perform the surgery on Jessica. Once it's done, you'll be free."

There was a pause on the other end. Samuel didn't ask why-he always supported whatever decision Wendy made. "Alright. Don't worry about me. I'm doing just fine."

Wendy held the phone, her eyes lost in the view of the twinkling city lights outside the window. "After the surgery, let's get out of Hovendale. I don't want to stay here anymore."

When Stanley heard her words, his proud figure stiffened, his body rigid. Wendy wanted to leave.
