NovelGoldMy Dad Please C439 Chapter 439 The atmosphere immediately turned tense, as if the air itself was thick with danger. Scarface couldn't believe Stanley had actually slapped him.
But Stanley was his golden ticket now, so Scarface didn't want to escalate things. He swallowed his pride and held back his anger.
"Have you brought the money?" Scarface asked, his voice steady despite the tension.
Stanley replied coolly, "I brought it. Not a penny less. But I want the money exchanged for them, one for one." Scarface chuckled. "Alright, one for one. But I can only hand over one person." Stanley narrowed his eyes, his voice dropping to a low, dangerous tone. "What do you mean?" "We agreed on a one-for-one exchange, but I never said I'd give you both. A hundred million only buys one person," Scarface sneered, a malicious grin spreading across his face.
Stanley's expression didn't change. "I can pay more." "Mr. Hawk, that's not how things work around here. One person-take your pick. Your ex-wife or your girlfriend. Choose one to take with you. The other one stays with us," Scarface said, his laughter cold.

Jessica immediately jumped in, her voice pleading. "Stanley, don't hesitate! You'll choose me, right? My heart's acting up again. Please takeout of here." Stanley glanced at Jessica briefly before his eyes locked onto Wendy.
Wendy met his gaze, her voice soft but steady. "Mr. Hawk, if I beg you, will you choose me?" Wendy wasn't foolish. Of course, she wanted to leave. She wasn't alone anymore. She carried Stanley's child. Would that change his choice? If she asked him for help, would he choose her over Jessica? Stanley furrowed his brows, but remained silent.
Scarface's voice broke through the tension. "Mr. Hawk, I'll count to three. Make your choice quickly, or you won't get anyone. One... Two..." Jessica chimed in again, her voice urgent. "Stanley, don't you remember the promise you made? You said you'd takewith you! You promised to always be there for me! Scarface's count was nearing its end.
Stanley's voice rang out calmly, "I choose Jessica." Stanley made his choice. He chose Jessica.
Wendy wasn't entirely surprised. After all, Stanley had never chosen her between the two of them.
Still, hearing him say it out loud stung.
Her heart ached as she thought about the baby inside her. It hadn't even been born yet, and its father had already abandoned it.
He had left both of them behind.

As soon as she was freed, Jessica jumped and rushed to Stanley. "I knew you'd choose me! My legs feel like jelly- pickup!" She pouted playfully.
Stanley reached out and swept her into his arms.

Stanley gave Wendy one last glance before turning and walking out with Jessica in his arms. He left.

Wendy curled her lips, into a bitter smile.
Just then, Scarface stepped forward, grabbing Wendy's delicate chin. "Did you see that? You're the orfe he left behind. Mr. Hawk doesn't want you anymore. Now, we'll have our way with you." Wendy jerked her face away, breaking free from his grip.
Scarface chuckled darkly. "Feisty, huh? Well, let's see t's see if you can keep this up later. He lunged at Wendy.
Stanley had carried Jessica outside and set her down. He turned, ready to go back.
