Chapter 178 Suspicious

• Stanley accepted the admonishment out of guilt and replied, "I understand. It will not happen 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. Darn! His presence is simply too intimidating for me. If I had spoken any slower, 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 if her cheek was swollen due 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.
