Why wasn't he responding? Halsey felt a knot of unease in her stomach.
Cyril, observing her, chuckled lightly. "He still hasti't replied, huh?" Halsey shot him a glare. "You're just enjoying watchingsuffer, aren't you?" Cyril laughed openly, not holding back. "I've told you before-you can't control Dwight. But someone like Gilbert Cyril laughed openly, not holding back.

Edith, Harry, Lilian, Archer, Natalie, and Trish had all cto support Jessica. On the other hand, Wendy had agreed to perform the surgery, which was seen as a decisive victory for the Crone family. Edith, of course, wasn't going to let this opportunity slip by.

It felt so good, like being surrounded by adoration. She smiled sweetly. "Thank you, Grandma." Trish, grinning, added, "Mr. Hawk is so in love with you. He's already cut ties with Wendy. After the surgery, you should marry him." Edith chimed in, "That's right! Soon, you'll becMrs. Hawk." Jessica beamed with joy. She had imagined marrying Stanley countless times in her mind. Once her heart was healed, her life would truly begin.
At that moment, Edith glanced around. "Where's Wendy? Why hasn't she arrived yet?" Lilian reassured her. "Don't worry. Samuel is still in Mr. Hawk's hands. Wendy will definitely come."

"I hope you'll perform my heart surgery well. But I'm not too worried-Stanley will protect me!" Halsey and Cecelia were there to accompany Wendy. Cecelia rolled her eyes at Jessica.
