Chapter 518

Jessica, feeling the pressure of the moment, began to urge Stanley.

At that point, Halsey sneered, "What's the rush? Mr. Finnley is an old acquaintance of yours, right? Didn't you get him to help rescue Mr. Hawk all those years ago?"

Cecelia gasped in realization. "Wait a second, Jessica! Why does it seem like you don't recognize Mr. Finnley?"
