Chapter 134

Author: Glazed Snow
Glinda took another sip of her milkshake, a satisfied smile spreading across her face.

"It's amazing."

She then glanced at the handsome young therapist in front of her. "How old are you?"

The therapist smiled. "I'm 18."

Glinda raised an eyebrow. "No wonder men, even when they're 80, still like 18-year-olds. Turns out, even at 80, I like them too."

Laughter echoed through the room.

Wendy and Halsey chuckled, and the atmosphere was filled with the sound of three women enjoying themselves.

Zayn, who had intended to go in and warn Wendy, paused. Hearing their conversation, he quickly turned and exited the room. Well, everyone had their way of living life—he supposed Wendy would have to deal with it on her own.

Stanley stood in the doorway, his forehead tight with veins pulsing in irritation. An hour ago, he never would have imagined finding his grandmother holding a milkshake and getting a foot massage!

A dark storm of anger surged through him, his eyes narrowing

    Stanley didn't say Wendy could leave, but she really didn't want to stay. She tried to pull her wrist away from his firm grip.But Stanley's long, slender fingers tightened around her wrist, pulling her along with him."Stanley, what are you doing? Let go of me! Where are you taking me?" His strides were long, forcing Wendy to stumble as she tried to keep up with him.He dragged her out of the foot massage parlor and shoved her into his Rolls Royce Phantom. Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of Hawk Group's office building, and he pulled her inside.The employees in the tech department were working late that night. They were just about to grab a cup of coffee when they saw their intimidating CEO walking in with a stunningly beautiful Wendy. The employees' exhaustion instantly vanished, replaced by wide-eyed surprise. "Mr. Hawk?" Stanley didn't even spare them a glance as he dragged Wendy into his office. The staff immediately erupted into whispers. "Is that Mr

    Stanley couldn't remember the last time he kissed Wendy. All he knew now was that the sensation from the kiss was making his whole body tingle, as if he were being jolted by electricity. At that moment, she boldly penetrated his defenses, soft and teasing, like a kitten's paw swiping around a little before finally pulling him in with a gentle but irresistible tug.Stanley felt a surge of heat race from his spine to his brain. It was as if she had stolen his very soul.He breathed heavily, his weight pressing down on her, his body hovering over hers. When he realized his body seemed to remember her touch, he wanted to curse. He hadn't been with Jessica. Physically, at his age, he needed some passion, but he had always been emotionally distant and never thought much of it. But since he met Wendy, especially that stormy night when they had a taste of each other, it had opened a door he didn't know was there. Now, every time he touched her, that same craving came rushing back, aw

    All five sets were completed.Stanley quickly grabbed the papers and scanned through them. Wendy's neat, delicate handwriting filled the pages, and every answer was correct.How was this possible?Stanley was stunned. She had finished five full exams in an hour, and each one was a perfect score.How did she do it?Stanley looked suspiciously at the sleeping Wendy, then called out, "Zayn."The office door opened, and Zayn walked in. "Mr. Hawk, what can I do for you?""Zayn, I can't believe you pulled something like this right under my nose!"Zayn looked confused. "Mr. Hawk, what did I do?"Stanley slammed the papers down onto the desk. "You secretly let Wendy copy the answers!"Zayn froze. "What? No, Mr. Hawk! I did no such thing!"Stanley wasn't interested in hearing Zayn's explanation. To him, an explanation was just an excuse. There was no way Wendy could have finished five perfect exams in one hour, unless Zayn had given her the answers."You won't get paid this month. D

    But he really did need to get up.Stanley gently pulled his arm away from Wendy and climbed out of bed.He went into the bathroom for a cold shower, then dressed quickly in a black shirt and black trousers. As he walked into his office, he froze.There was already a beautiful figure in his office—Jessica had arrived.Jessica turned to look at him, a sly smile curling on her red lips. "Stanley, did you just get up?"It was already 8:00 AM, and Jessica had never seen him sleep in so late before.Stanley hesitated. He hadn't expected Jessica to be here so early.Just then, Zayn hurried into the office. "Mr. Hawk, I just came from the marketing department. I didn't know Ms. Jessica had already arrived..."Zayn knew that last night, Stanley had slept in the longue with Wendy, who was now probably still in the bed. Now, Jessica was here. This was awkward.Would the two women end up fighting over Stanley? Would they start pulling each other's hair?Zayn didn't even dare to look at

    Stanley reached for the wardrobe door and opened it. Inside, he found Wendy.She was curled up in the corner of the wardrobe, her small frame tucked in tightly. Her long, black hair fell in soft waves. When the door opened, her sleepy, clear eyes, still heavy with sleep, snapped up at him like that of a startled deer.At that moment, she looked so vulnerable, almost like a secret lover hiding from the wife, forcing her to flee from his bed and hide in his wardrobe so that she wouldn't get caught.Stanley furrowed his brow. "What are you doing hiding in here?"Wendy had just woken up; the sound of Jessica's voice outside startled her from her sleep. When she opened her eyes, she realized she was in his lounge, in Stanley's bed. She couldn't remember how she'd ended up there; the last thing she remembered was falling asleep at the desk.With Jessica about to burst in and confront her, Wendy had panicked and crawled into the wardrobe.She looked at Stanley and asked softly, "Has Jes

    Wendy stood there, speechless.She hadn't expected anything from him. She knew he would never sleep with her—Jessica forbade him.Even so, she felt that there was no need to humiliate her like this."Stanley, you really hate me that much, huh? Fine. I'll never show up in front of you again."With that, she turned and walked away, leaving the room.The two of them parted on a sour note.Stanley's face remained stormy as he entered his office and began sorting through urgent papers.Before long, Jessica walked in. "Stanley, when are we heading to Clavendale University? Dr. Ceylan is giving a lecture today, and we'll finally get to see the doctor in person."Jessica had congenital heart disease, and Dr. Ceylan was her last hope.After two failed attempts, Dr. Ceylan was finally making an appearance today, and Jessica couldn't contain her excitement.Stanley remembered Dr. Ceylan well—he was curious about the healer who was both a medical genius and a mystery.Finishing the last

    Wendy made her way backstage. She had asked Cyril to clear the area, so she was alone in the room.She sat in front of the vanity, her long, jet-black hair tied up in a low ponytail, exposing her delicate, swan-like neck. She then applied a light touch of makeup, adding a layer of lipstick. She rarely wore makeup—her face, naturally fair and youthful, already had an angelic look. Now, with just a hint of makeup, her beauty became even more striking.Outside, she could hear Cyril's voice. "Good morning, everyone."Wendy stood up and reached out to lift the corner of the stage curtain. The massive lecture hall was packed, with rows upon rows of people filling the whole place. This highly anticipated event was standing room only. The sound of camera shutters clicking echoed through the room. Cyril stood at the podium, speaking into the microphone. "We've gathered here today for..."The crowd cheered in unison, "Dr. Ceylan!"Cyril smiled and nodded. "That's right. It is our grea

    Stanley's expression was ice-cold. "Paul's car has free rein in Hovendale. Blocking the roads won't work—we won't make it in time." "What should we do, Mr. Hawk?" Stanley pulled out his phone and dialed Paul's father, Frank. The Hawks and Andrews had a long-standing relationship, and he was acquainted with the old man.The call connected quickly, and Frank's voice came through. "Stanley? What a surprise—why are you calling me?" Stanley's grip on his phone tightened, his voice sharp and commanding. "Your son kidnapped someone under my protection. Think carefully—does he have any private villas in the outskirts?" - In a private villa on the outskirts, Wendy slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was the extravagant design of the room—lavish furnishings and expensive decor. Where was she? She bolted upright in bed. "Wendy, you're awake?" A man's voice rang out. Wendy turned sharply and saw Paul standing nearby. Her dark eyes instantly narrowed. "Paul

    The familiar announcement rang out.Benny shot up from the couch, his eyes wide in disbelief. "Damn it!"He swung his Zen staff and lunged forward, but before he could take a step, Wendy spun in the air, landing lightly and bringing her axe down on him. It was over in an instant—he was down. He was dead! He actually died!Benny couldn't believe it. The sudden turn of events caught Stanley's attention, and he looked over at Benny with a raised eyebrow.Benny, not one to admit defeat, huffed, [Wendy, let's go again!]Wendy agreed, and the second round began.Just two seconds later, Stanley heard Benny's voice erupt again, more furious than ever. "Damn it! Damn it, damn it, damn it!""Game over." Benny had lost again.Still unwilling to accept it, Benny growled, [Wendy, another round!]Wendy replied, [Mr. Gondale, you should think about this carefully. If you lose the third round, your rank will drop.]Benny had always been at the top rank as the champion, but after facing o

    Wendy's absence only seemed to highlight Trish's success.Trish signed autographs for the group of students, then cheerfully walked over to Wendy. "Wendy, I heard you were kidnapped by Paul. Why do you always get yourself into trouble? You're making our Crone family look bad!" No one from the Crone family seemed to care about her, only blaming her. Wendy wasn't the least bit upset—she was used to it by now. She gave a playful wink, her voice light as she replied, "I don't mind making the Crone family look bad, as long as you're there to make up for it."The comment struck a chord with Trish. She immediately smiled, her lips curling into a proud grin. "You heard about my academic paper, right? It was selected by the Medical Museum, and tomorrow, it's going to be officially displayed in their showcase. Our whole family is celebrating. Tomorrow, Grandma and my parents are coming to the Medical Museum to witness my moment of glory."Even Edith was getting involved—after all, Tri

    Wendy pulled out her phone and found Stanley's number, but she hesitated for a long time before dialing.He had truly surprised her. Wasn't Jessica supposed to be his favorite? How could he bring himself to turn her down? Last night, Wendy had left without a word and never thanked him in person. She wondered whether he had seen the note she had left on the nightstand."Wendy, what are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and call Mr. Hawk! He stood up for you this time!" Halsey urged.Wendy pressed the dial button.The phone rang once, then was answered with a calm and unhurried voice.Stanley picked up the phone, but didn't say anything.The silence on the other end stretched on.Wendy's slender fingers tightened around the phone. She didn't know what to say.After a moment, his deep, magnetic voice broke the silence. "If you're not going to speak, then I'll hang up."Typical of him—domineering and direct."Wait!" Wendy quickly spoke up. "Paul's parents came to the school looki

    In the girls' dormitory…"Ouch... It hurts... Halsey, please be gentle..."Wendy had returned to the dorm after leaving Saville Villa, and Halsey was carefully applying an ice pack to her face.Hearing Wendy cry in pain, Halsey cursed under her breath. "Paul is an animal! How could he do this to you? Where is he now? Wait a minute, Wendy—why did you come back alone?"When Halsey opened the door to the dorm, she was shocked to see Wendy walking in with a swollen red handprint across her face. Wendy's arms and legs were also marked with bruises and red imprints—clear signs of abuse.It was late, and Wendy had returned alone, her body covered in injuries. Halsey's heart ached for her.Where was Paul now?Earlier, Jessica had gone to see Stanley, so Paul was probably released by now.Wendy trembled slightly and, without a word, wrapped her arms around Halsey's warm body. "Halsey, my face hurts. I don't want to talk right now.""Okay, okay," Halsey replied quickly, "I'll stop askin

    Stanley couldn't focus on the documents anymore. He stood up and walked toward the master bedroom.The room was empty—no sign of Wendy.Seeing the bathroom door was closed, Stanley stood at the threshold, his voice low as he called out, "Wendy, are you almost done?"There was no response.No sound came from inside.Stanley raised his hand, about to knock, but before he could, the bathroom door opened on its own.He paused, then walked in. The large bathtub was empty. Wendy was nowhere to be found.Where did she go?Stanley stepped out, and just then, a maid entered the room. "Mr. Hawk, Mrs. Hawk has already left."She left? Just like that?Stanley glanced at the untouched ice pack. "She didn't use it?""No, Mrs. Hawk said she didn't need it."On the nightstand, there was a note. Stanley extended his long fingers and picked it up. The note was simple.[Thank you.]She left without telling him and just left that little note behind for him.Stanley stood with his hands on h

    Jessica clicked her heels in her crystal-clear stilettos and walked into the study.Wendy was left standing alone, frozen in place."I feel sorry for you because no one loves you."Jessica's words echoed in her ears over and over again.Wendy knew Jessica looked down on her. To Jessica, she was just some quiet onlooker, hiding in the shadows, coveting what Jessica had, her mother and Stanley. And Wendy had nothing— no one loved her.Jessica felt sorry for her.Wendy's chest ached as if a thousand needles were piercing her heart. The pain stretched deep inside her, reaching her core. It was so bitterly ironic. Jessica's mother and Stanley—they had all once been hers!Wendy's gaze lingered on the study door ahead. If Jessica spoke to him, would Stanley really release Paul?Jessica had told her to listen outside, but at this moment, Wendy had lost all her courage.She couldn't bear to hear it.Her heart, once warm, now felt like it was slowly freezing over. She realized she shou

    Ursula quickly spoke up. "Today, my son kidnapped Wendy. Mr. Hawk rushed over to rescue her, and now he's holding my son hostage. Mr. Hawk refuses to let him go, all because of Wendy." What? Jessica's expression shifted immediately. No wonder Stanley had suddenly left Dr. Ceylan's lecture today. He had gone to rescue Wendy. How many times had this happened now? The last time, Wendy had been kidnapped by George, and it was Stanley who had rushed to save her. Now, Stanley had gone so far as to hold Paul? The Hawk and Andrews families had ties—for Stanley to go so far, did Wendy mean that much?Jessica clenched her fists. Frank watched her closely. "Ms. Crone, everyone knows you're Mr. Hawk's favorite. No amount of words from us can compare to just one request from you. If you speak to Mr. Hawk, I'm sure he'll release my son." At this, Jessica, Harry, and Lilian all smiled knowingly. Jessica's lips curled into a playful smile. "So that's all you wanted me to do

    Stanley stood tall by the floor-to-ceiling windows, his long legs and imposing figure casting a shadow in the room. His cold, dark eyes seemed as if they were pools of ink—deep, distant, and dangerous. "Do you think this can be solved with just an apology? You should leave." Ursula's eyes filled with tears, and she begged, her voice trembling, "Stanley, please, I'm begging you! When you were a child, we used to hold you. Paul's our only child, so please let him go. I swear we will discipline him properly from now on." Stanley didn't flinch. His voice was cold as he gave the order. "Zayn, show them out." Zayn immediately gestured toward the door, his voice polite but firm. "Mr. and Mrs. Andrews, please follow me." Frank's face turned red with anger. "Stanley, are you really going to be this heartless? Just because of a girl like Wendy? I've done my research—Wendy's just some country girl with poor grades! Is she worth it? You're willing to tear apart the relationship betwe

    Wendy cried uncontrollably, her voice breaking with emotion. "You're always so angry with me... Why does it matter if I put on makeup or wear lipstick? Jessica does it every day, and you never yell at her... If she had been the one taken, you'd be hugging her, calling her 'babe'... You just hate me, don't you? Why do you hate me so much?" Her sobs were raw and desperate, her delicate shoulders trembling with each breath. Her eyes were swollen and red, her nose pink, like a rose about to bloom, and tears fell in sparkling drops, endlessly streaming down her face. Stanley's expression shifted, his face turning pale. He quickly crouched down beside her, his hand reaching out. "Wendy, please, stop crying." She hardly ever cried in front of him. The only time he'd seen her cry before was in her sleep, when she had sobbed out for her mother to stay. This was the second time, and it was because of him. He couldn't bear to see her in tears. Stanley gently wiped a tear from
