Brittany glanced at Horace. "Why is Jessica so stubborn? It's clear that Mr. Hawk doesn't love her. You can't force
a marriage like
Horace knew Jessica well. Across the entire Capital, no one could match Stanley. Jessica wanted to marry the
most powerful man around, and she wasn't about to
give up.
At first, because Jessica was his daughter, Horace had hoped Stanley would marry her. But three years had
passed, and Stanley's heart had never wayered from Wendy.
Horace sighed deeply. "I'll find a tto talk with her."
Brittany nodded. "Alright. Let's head back to our room. You twisted your back. I'll help you put smedicine on
it."
After dinner, Wendy and Bella went back to their room, then Wendy bathed Bella.
Bella giggled. "Mommy, Mr. Handsdidn't cback after he left today. Is he really busy?"
Wendy wasn't sure what Stanley had been up to. "He probably went to the company. He has a big business, and
he has a lot to
manage."
Bella pouted. "Then he must be really tired."
Wendy reached out and gently tapped Bella's tiny nose. "Do you only care about Mr. Handsome? What about

"| love you the most..." Bella planted a big kiss right on Wendy's cheek.
Soon, Wendy wrapped the freshly bathed Bella in a soft towel and set her on the bed. "Go and read your
storybook for a little while. I'm going to take a bath."
Bella nodded. "Okay."
Wendy stepped into the bathroom.
Bella opened her storybook just as the bedroom door swung open. Stanley's tall, strong figure appeared in the
doorway. Bella's eyes lit up. "Mr. Handsome, you're back!"
Stanley went straight to the room, which was bathed in a soft, warm yellow glow. Bella, freshly washed, wore a
pale yellow nightgown. She looked like a little bundle of sweetness and softness, smiling up at him so tenderly.
At that moment, all the exhaustion Stanley had carried from the day melted away. His whole body relaxed.
This was his daughter.
No wonder the moment he saw Bella, he fell for her.
This was the daughter Wendy had given him.
Stanley stepped forward and scooped Bella into his arms. "What are you doing?"
"Mommy just gavea bath, and I'm reading a storybook."
Stanley heard the gentle rush of water from the bathroom. Wendy was still bathing.
Stanley smiled softly. "Do you want to head out for sfun?" "Shouldn't we tell Mommy? She'll worry if she
can't see me."
"le keep it a secret for now. If she can't find you, she'll call me.

"Okay."
Stanley carried Bella away.
When Wendy stepped out of the bathroom, Bella wasn't there. She called out, puzzled, "Bella? Bella?"
