Chapter 112

Author: Glazed Snow
Wendy was just someone brought in to replace another. A small mistake, really.

Stanley admitted there was a brief moment when he was lost in desire, but he didn't love her.

The person he cared about was Jessica. The person he wanted around was Jessica.

He didn't want to be caught between two women. His relationship with Wendy should be over.

Late at night, Cecelia heard a knock at the door. She quickly threw on a robe and went to open it. "Who's there?"

Standing outside was Wendy.

Wendy wasn't carrying anything, except for the pale yellow vest that Glinda had given her. With a wry smile, Wendy looked at Cecelia and said, "Cecelia, I have nowhere else to go. Can you take me in?"

Cecelia immediately pulled her inside. Noticing how cold Wendy's hands were, Cecelia gently rubbed them. "Wendy, what happened? Why are you out here by yourself so late? It's not safe."

Wendy gave a faint smile. "Today, Jessica threw herself down the stairs and told Stanley he couldn't share a room

    At the moment, Cyril was standing while Wendy was sitting. By all accounts, Cyril should have had the upper hand. But Wendy sat there with perfect posture, her clear, bright eyes calmly studying Cyril. Her composed and confident presence somehow made Cyril feel dwarfed.Cyril cleared his throat. "Y-yes, I am."Cyril mentally scolded himself. What was he even saying? Aside from his revered mentor, Dr. Ceylan, no one ever dared call him by his full name. And yet, this niece-in-law of his addressed him this way.Cyril wanted to reprimand her. "You little—"But before he could say anything, Wendy gave a small nod and said, "Alright, go ahead and give your lecture."Cyril froze. Who was the professor here, and who was the student? She was giving him orders now?But something in Wendy's gaze seemed to make Cyril's body move on its own. Without another word, he turned around and walked to the front of the classroom. Grabbing the chalk, he started his lesson.Why was he doing as s

    Wendy's dormitory was shared by two people. One was her, and the other was Halsey Mallin.Halsey grinned as she looked at Wendy. "You're Wendy, right? I'm Halsey. Looks like we're roommates now."Halsey was a lively, cheerful girl. However, there was a noticeable birthmark on the right side of her face—a large black mark that stood out starkly against her fair skin.Noticing Wendy staring at the mark, Halsey wasn't shy about it. She shrugged casually and said, "This birthmark is natural. The doctors said they can't remove it, so my classmates call me 'Clown Girl' behind my back. No one wants to live with me."She gave a small shrug. "If you don't want to stay with me either, that's fine…"Wendy smiled and shook her head. "Well, how about that? I'm a country bumpkin, so I guess we're a perfect match. Looks like we're destined to be roommates."Wendy extended her hand in friendship.Halsey beamed and took Wendy's hand in hers.The two of them quickly became close. Wendy really li

    Tonight, Stanley had been losing steadily, his luck simply not with him. His handsome face had taken on a cold, distant expression.Jessica was focused on her cards, and a bowl of fresh seasonal fruits was beside her. She delicately picked a large, dark purple grape, peeled it, and gently held it to Stanley's lips. Stanley, still distracted by the game, opened his mouth and took the grape from her. His attention was split between the cards and Jessica's affectionate gestures.Jessica leaned into him, a picture of a loving, attentive partner. She even held out her soft palm to catch the pit from the grape Stanley had just chewed.She was like a shy little wife, dutifully caring for Stanley.The two young men at the table chuckled. "Only Mr. Hawk could get Hovendale's number one beauty to pamper him like this.""Seems like you can't have it both ways. No wonder Mr. Hawk has been losing tonight."Jessica smiled, a playful pout on her lips. "Stop making fun of me, you guys."Outsi

    Wendy spotted Sienna sitting on the couch, laughing and causing a stir, clearly having a great time.Sienna smiled and said, "Stanley, Jessica, while everyone's in such a good mood, let me tell you all a joke."Jessica's curiosity was piqued, and she asked, "What joke?"Sienna grinned mischievously, "It's about Wendy!"Standing just outside, Wendy felt a sudden rush of discomfort. It wasn't exactly the best time for her to be pulled into their fun, especially when Stanley and Jessica were so happy. She had been thinking earlier that she didn't belong in their world, but now, it seemed someone was determined to drag her into it.Sienna continued, "Today's Wendy's first day at Clavendale University, and she's already made a name for herself!"Benny looked at her with contempt. "Seriously? Someone like her?"Sienna chuckled. "Oh, yeah. She's the 'God of Sleep'. She slept through the entire day at Clavendale University!"The room erupted in laughter. Benny was the first to laug

    Wendy had already pulled Halsey out of the restroom, and the two of them made their way toward the exit. As she listened to the voice message from Cyril, Wendy quickly typed a short reply, [Cyril, you got this.]Back in his study, Cyril couldn't help but feel touched by how warm the message sounded. He quickly responded with a voice message of his own, "Yeah, I'll do my best!"Wendy tucked her phone back into her bag just as Halsey grabbed her arm. "Wendy, let's go."The two were about to leave when the bathroom door suddenly opened. Two people walked in.It was Jessica and Sienna.The four of them crossed paths right at that moment.Jessica immediately grinned, her expression full of smug satisfaction. "Wendy, what are you doing here? I heard Stanley kicked you out of the Hawk family's estate. Now you're staying in the dorms at Clavendale University?"She'd made quite the scene when she fell down the stairs, and now she couldn't wait to rub her victory in Wendy's face, the su

    Jessica frowned slightly. "Sienna, Glinda has never fully accepted me, so I need to secure the support of the Lincoln family. Bebe is crucial to that. If I can get close to her, make her like me, and become her friend, I'll be one step closer to marrying Stanley and becoming his wife."Jessica was skilled at winning people over. Benny, Sienna, and the other rich heirs in Stanley's circle all liked her. It was clear she had a way with people, and now she had to make Bebe like her. Bebe was the key to securing the support of the entire Lincoln family. That was Stanley's mother's family, and it was absolutely vital to her plans.Sienna nodded. "I'll keep looking for her, Jessica. Honestly, I'm curious about who Bebe really is, too."-Back in the luxurious private room, Jessica noticed Stanley was missing. He hadn't returned since he left earlier. She walked through the lavish lounge and found him lounging on a sofa. Stanley had been drinking, and it seemed like his mood was still

    Jessica asked Stanley for a kiss.Stanley's eyes lingered on Jessica's delicate, rosy face. Compared to Wendy's small, delicate features, Jessica's was a vision of youthful allure, soft and inviting. Where Wendy seemed to always frustrate him and leave him annoyed, Jessica was a breath of fresh air—graceful and easy to be around.Stanley slowly lowered his head toward her...-Meanwhile, Wendy and Halsey had a drink or two and spent a little time at the bar before deciding to head home. They stepped out onto the bustling street, hoping to grab a taxi. However, the area was busy, and there weren't many taxis passing by. Wendy thought of an idea. "Halsey, how about we just rent a bike and ride back?"Halsey raised an eyebrow. "No need, Wendy. I'll just call my cousin and have him send a car over.""Cousin? Halsey, you have a cousin?" Wendy asked, intrigued.Halsey gave a mysterious wink. "Yep.""Well, I think it's fine. It's getting pretty late. No need to bother your cousin.

    This was a very dangerous sign. Stanley stretched his long legs and stood up before leaving the room. He instructed Zayn to arrange for a car. Jessica realized Bebe seemed to have a special place in Stanley's heart. Just one call from her, and he immediately jumped into action. She made up her mind: She had to find out who Bebe was. She had to become her best friend.-Meanwhile, Wendy and Halsey were still standing on the busy street. Before long, a sleek Rolls-Royce pulled up, its engine purring softly. The driver opened the rear door respectfully, and both Wendy and Halsey slid into the luxurious car. Wendy stared, wide-eyed. "Halsey, is your cousin rich?"A Rolls-Royce—Stanley's personal car was also this brand. Was this brand favored by scumbags? Halsey chuckled. "Yep, he's pretty wealthy. Wendy, let me set you up with my cousin. You can be my cousin-in-law." What? Wendy quickly declined. "Thank you, Halsey, but I think I'll pass. I'm not cut out for that kind o

    One of the other girls sneered, "Dwight's dad was a drug dealer, right?"Alina nodded. "Yeah, he's the son of a drug dealer. His mom's blind, and he has a sister in middle school. Their family situation is pretty terrible, but with a drug-dealing father, a blind mother, and a struggling family, it only makes me want to win him over even more. It feels like a challenge. Ha!"Alina and the girls around her all laughed, their voices wobbling with amusement, mocking Dwight's family.Halsey's expression hardened. She turned off the tap and glared at Alina and the others with her striking almond eyes. "Are you done laughing?"Her sudden voice caught Alina and the others off guard.Alina looked over at Halsey, quickly recognizing her. "Well, well, it's the famous Halsey. What does our conversation have to do with you?"Halsey furrowed her brow. "You shouldn't be mocking others. You can't use someone's pain as your joke."Halsey had been to Dwight's house, and despite the difficult ci

    [Answer me!] Stanley demanded.Wendy couldn't help but laugh. Who did he think Stanley was? Her boss? Why should she listen to him?She ignored him once again.Samuel, sitting in the driver's seat, chuckled. "Wendy, even though you and Mr. Hawk are divorced, I can't help but feel like there's still something between you two. Is he still interested in you?"Wendy shrugged, uninterested. "I don't know."Samuel smirked. "When I put my arm around you in the store, he looked like he wanted to chop my hand off. I have to say, pretending to be your boyfriend is a dangerous job."Wendy turned her head to look at him. "Well, if you don't want to pretend, I could always ask Daryl or Ernest.""Don't even think about it. I'd walk through fire for you!"The two of them joked and laughed, and before long, they arrived at Clavendale University. Wendy made her way to the girls' dorm, only to find that Halsey wasn't there.Wendy sat down to wait for her.As Wendy had guessed, Halsey had gon

    Archer and Natalie were absolutely pleased with Dr. Ceylan as their future son-in-law.However, Trish's expression darkened. She pulled out her phone and dialed Dr. Ceylan's number.The call connected, but instead of Dr. Ceylan's voice, a cold, robotic voice answered. "Sorry, the number you have dialed is not in service."Not in service?Trish's heart fell to her stomach. She quickly dialed again.But once again, the same robotic voice replied, "Sorry, the number you have dialed is not in service."Trish immediately tried to text Dr. Ceylan on WhatsApp. But the text wouldn't send. Instead of two ticks, the status remained a single tick.Dr. Ceylan had blocked her.The number was now disconnected, and WhatsApp showed her as blocked. The man who had been sweet-talking her just yesterday had vanished into thin air, and now she couldn't reach him at all.With a loud thud, Trish's phone slipped from her hand and fell to the carpet. She collapsed onto the floor like a deflated bal

    Dr. Ceylan was a woman?Both Edith and Trish froze, their faces turning pale. "Mr. Samuel, what are you talking about? Dr. Ceylan can't be a woman. I'm dating him! He's a man!"Samuel raised an eyebrow. "I not only know Dr. Ceylan, but we're also very close. I'm telling you: She's a woman."Trish was so stunned by this news that she stood frozen in place. "That's impossible! You must be lying to me!"Edith, too, couldn't believe it. "Mr. Samuel, I understand that you're dating Wendy now, but there's no need to joke about something like this."Neither of them seemed convinced, so Samuel shrugged. "Dr. Ceylan is a woman. Forget it if you don't believe me. Wendy, let's go.""Alright."Samuel turned and left with Wendy.Edith and Trish remained standing there, stunned. Edith nervously grabbed Trish's arm. "Why would Mr. Samuel say Dr. Ceylan is a woman? What's going on?"Just then, Jessica emerged from the fitting room, having changed into her clothes. She and Lilian walked over

    Jessica regained her confidence. She shot a provocative glance at Wendy before heading into the fitting room to try on the dress.It didn't take long before Jessica came out, and both Lilian and Trish immediately praised her. "Jessica, you look stunning!"Jessica certainly looked beautiful in the lace dress, but there was an odd expression on her face. She felt like the waist was too tight.When she was in the fitting room, she had to suck in her stomach just to get the zipper up.She twirled in front of Stanley, holding the dress. "Stanley, do I look good?"Stanley stared at Jessica, silent.Lilian quickly jumped in, "Of course you look amazing, Jessica! How could you not? You're the lead dancer in ballet. You're leagues above all those housewives!"No sooner had Lilian finished speaking when a loud "rip" echoed through the room—the fabric of Jessica's lace dress had split at the waist.Lilian, stunned, went silent.Jessica let out a sharp scream and immediately reached to

    Jessica told Stanley she wanted Wendy's dress.Her damned competitive nature wouldn't let her accept being outshone by Wendy. She had to have that dress. She couldn't let Wendy steal her spotlight!This wasn't the first time, either. Back when they were at the hot springs, Jessica had bought the bikini Wendy wanted.Stanley stared at Wendy.At that moment, Samuel reached for Wendy's soft waist and pulled her closer. With a smirk, he said, "Mr. Hawk, there's a certain order to things—rules, you know? Isn't that how it works?"Stanley's eyes narrowed as they fell on Samuel's hand. When Samuel had his arm around Wendy's shoulders, it had been bad enough, but now, with his hand on her waist, Stanley could feel the icy chill rising in his gaze.Jessica pouted, playing her usual game of charm. "Stanley, now that Mr. Samuel is Wendy's boyfriend, she's acting all high and mighty with him behind her. You're my boyfriend. You wouldn't let me lose to Wendy, would you?"Stanley pressed his

    Jessica, Trish, and Lilian all felt like they had been thoroughly humiliated as well.Wendy turned her gaze to Stanley. "Do you believe me now?"Her clear, bright eyes sparkled with a playful glint. When Stanley saw Samuel's arm still around her, his handsome face darkened, the tension practically radiating off him.This little minx!Even Samuel had fallen under her spell. She really had a way of getting what she wanted!"Wendy, we're here to shop. Did you see anything you liked?" Samuel asked, trying to shift the focus.The sales associate immediately stepped forward, presenting a delicate lace dress. "This one would look perfect on you, miss."Wendy nodded. "I'd like to try it on.""Of course. Go ahead."Wendy took the lace dress into the fitting room.Jessica, however, was no longer in a good mood. She tugged on Stanley's arm. "I told you she's bad news! Look at her. She's already gotten herself tangled up with Mr. Samuel. Look at how nice he is to her. I think he's comp

    Samuel had arrived.Jessica and the others had already met him yesterday at NovaHealth, but now that they were seeing him again, their expressions shifted dramatically.Samuel walked up to Wendy and placed a hand on her shoulder. "I just stepped out to take a call. What's going on here? It looks like I missed something interesting."Wendy flashed a playful smile. "No, you didn't miss anything. In fact, you're just in time. These people all wanted to meet my boyfriend, and I told them it was you."Wendy shot Samuel a knowing glance.Samuel instantly understood. He wrapped an arm around Wendy's slender shoulder and turned his gaze toward the others. "And these are…?"Wendy introduced them one by one. "This is Edith, Lilian, Jessica, and Trish Crone."Her eyes fell on Stanley's refined, handsome face. As soon as Samuel stepped into the room, Stanley's expression also shifted. Clearly, Stanley hadn't expected her boyfriend to be Samuel."And this person needs no introduction. Thi

    Trish immediately straightened her back, her fiery red lips curling into a smirk. "Wendy, don't be jealous. Dr. Ceylan is my boyfriend, and we're getting married soon."Wendy nodded. "So you've multiplied your assets tenfold. When is Dr. Ceylan going to give you all that money? Has he said when it'll be delivered?"Edith paused, caught off guard. "Well…""Looks like he hasn't said anything. I guess he can say whatever he wants about how much money he'll give you. But I'll say it again—he's a fraud. You should watch out."Trish's expression immediately darkened. Her boyfriend Dr. Ceylan was the one thing she took the most pride in, and she wouldn't let anyone tarnish his name."You're just jealous of me! You're jealous I have someone like him as my boyfriend!" she spat.Jessica's voice dripped with sarcasm. "Wendy's not just jealous of you. She's jealous of me too, because I have Stanley."Before Wendy could respond, a deep, magnetic voice interrupted them."What are you all doi
