My Dad Please C86 "Stop the nonsense! Tonight, you personally bring 100 million to me, or your photo will be all over Hovendale tomorrow. I'll be waiting for you tonight!" George barked before ending the call abruptly.
Wendy tightened her grip on her phone. Just then, Stanley's voice cfrom behind her. "Were you talking to George?" She turned around, seeing Stanley had returned to the room His gaze landed on the box in her hand. His tall figure cast a shadow as he stood before her. "Grandma mentioned that he sent you a photo. What photo is it?" Wendy hesitated. Should she tell him about George? What would his reaction be if she did? She finally said, "This photo is-" Before she could finish, her phone rang again.

Wendy quickly relented. "Don't cin. I'll coutside." Stanley watched her closely. "Was that Nathan?" Wendy nodded. "Yes, I'm stepping out for a moment. I'll talk to you about the photo when I get back." Outside the mansion, Wendy spotted Nathan's flashy red sports car. He stepped out of the car, his handsfigure looking as confident as ever. He held a gift bag in his hand.
"Wendy, this is a gift for you," Nathan said as he extended the bag to her. Wendy didn't take it. "Nathan, what is this?" Nathan pulled out a bag from inside the gift bag. "It's the latest Chanel bag. Do you like it?" Wendy glanced at it. "Nathan, thank you, but I don't like it. I won't accept this gift." "You don't like it? But Stanley said you liked bags," Nathan said, clearly puzzled. Wendy froze. "He said that?" "Yes, Stanley toldtoday that you once said you thought a Chanel bag was beautiful." Wendy's mind raced. She remembered now-it was when Stanley had just woken up. It was her birthday, and she had unexpectedly found the latest Chanel bag in his study. She thought it was a birthday gift from him, and she had told him how beautiful it was.
Later, she realized the bag had actually been for Jessica. She had seen Jessica carrying it out to afternoon tea with a few other socialites.
It turned out it was all just her own misguided assumption. She hadn't liked the bag; she had only liked it because she thought it was from him. He had never given her a gift.

He toldyou like bags, so I immediately had one bought for you. If you don't like bags, then tellwhat you really like." Wendy was stunned. Stanley had taught Nathan how to win her over?
Her heart sank with bitterness.
"Nathan, I don't like anything. could have all these things if I wanted, so you don't need to buyanything. Don't waste any more ton me." With that, Wendy turned and walked away.
Back in her bedroom, Stanley was standing tall on the balcony, hism figure silhouetted against the fading light. He turned around as he heard her approach. "You didn't like the bag Nathan bought for you?"
