Chapter 178 Suspicious
Stanley accepted the admonishment out of guilt and replied. “Tunderstand. It will not luppen again.” The look in his eyes was so
solemn that Jessica was surprised. Don’t worry I’ll be more mindful in the future he added with a sense of modesty. “I will forever
prioritize Melinda’s feelings over everything else
After hearing this, she raised her chin and said, “Good! Then, she bolted from the room, quick as a deer running from a
huntsman. She was extremely anxious when she yelled at him. Durn’ His presence is simply too intimidating for me. If I had
spoken any sloteer, my mind would have melted into a puddle, and my words would have sounded weak.
On the other hand, Stanley remained rooted to the spot, pondering Jessica’s words. Woke up in the middle of the night and
stumbled on her way to the restroom? Why did Melinda not inform Jessica of her cheek was rollen dar to her wisdom tooth?
After calmly analyzing the situation for a few minutes, he arrived at an answer. Did my mom slap Melinda? A woman suffering
from dissociative identity disorder is capable of doing anything His heart sank at this realization, and he exited the office.
His Lamborghini soon accelerated toward Repulse Bay, and emotions warred within his deep eyes as he sat in the back. When
he arrived home, what he saw dispelled all suspicions he felt toward his mother. He had just exited the car when he saw Melinda
massaging some medicinal cream onto Jennifer’s skin through the French windows. They were happily chatting away with
smiles on their faces.
“You’re so amazing. This cream works wonders, Jennifer said with a smile.
Melinda had been shocked initially, but her poker face was soon replaced novelxo.com fast updateby a smile. Thank you for the
recognition. I’ll soon have all the medicine you need ready for use.

mature.”
“Thank you.” Melinda slowly glanced up and realized Stanley was home when she heard his footsteps. What a great
performance they had put on for him.
When he walked over, he found the skin on his mother’s skin had mostly returned to a healthy state and noticed Melinda
continued to cautiously rub the cream onto her skin. He smiled and said, “If this continues, a miracle will occur soon.”
“Yes,” Jennifer said. “Didn’t you just leave? Why did you return?”
“I have something I need to do.” He waited until they were finished before dragging Melinda upstairs to their room and locking
the door.
“What is it?” Her heart skipped in fear, but she still kept her smile on. “Did you return just to talk to me?”
Without saying a word, he tucked her long hair away from her cheek to look closely at the swelling.
After that, Melinda smiled harder to hide her guilt. “What is it?”
“Open your mouth. Show me your teeth.”
Her heart sank upon hearing this. Is he suspicious of me? Her tooth was loose, so she obediently opened up her mouth.
When Stanley saw that her innermost tooth was infected, he wrapped his arms tightly around her as remorse swept over him.
Slowly, she reached out to wrap her arms around him, drawn to the comforting heat he emanated She cherished each and every
embrace she shared with him and each and every moment they spent together
One month was not particularly long, as it would pass in the blink of an eye. Melinda would put in extra hours during that time,
staying until 2.00AM and burying herself in her research.
A fortnight later, on a bright, sunny day, Monica’s red Bentley pulled into the Repulse Bay villa. This was her first visit to the villa
since returning from Arunia, and she had chosen a time when Stanley would not be present.
In the meantime, Stanley had an extremely important meeting, and Max accompanied him. They probably wouldn’t return for
another three hours.
After fifteen days of continuous application, Jennifer’s skin improved significantly.
