The Heartbreak Prescription Chapter 1
One day, Wendy discovered that her husband Stanley was having an affair.He had been seeing a college student.It was Stanley's birthday. Wendy had prepared a table full of dishes early in the day. Just then, she heard a notification from his phone.Ding!He had left his phone at home. Wendy switched it on and saw a text from the college student.[I hurt myself when I was carrying the cake. It hurts so much.]Attached was a selfie—not of the sender's face, but of her legs. The girl in the photo wore pulled-up white socks, black leather shoes, and a blue-and-white skirt that had been pushed up to reveal her long, slender legs. Her pale knees were visibly reddened from the bump. The youthful, vibrant image of her body paired with coquettish words exuded a forbidden allure.People often say successful businessmen like Stanley favored this type of woman when choosing mistresses.Wendy clutched the phone tightly, her fingers turning white from the pressure.Ding!Another text ca

Wendy was also staring at him. Her tone was light but firm as she repeated, "Let's get a divorce, Stanley. Do you like your birthday gift?"Stanley didn't bat an eyelid. "You're asking for a divorce just because I didn't celebrate my birthday with you?""Jessica has returned, hasn't she?" At the mention of Jessica, Stanley's thin lips curled into a faint, mocking smile. He took a step forward, closing the distance between them. "Are you bothered by Jessica?"Stanley, known as the youngest business prodigy alive, exuded an aura of power, wealth, and status. As he approached, Wendy instinctively stepped back, her slender back pressing against the cold wall.Her vision went dark as Stanley leaned in. He propped one hand against the wall beside her, trapping her between his firm chest and the wall.Looking down at her with his deep, striking eyes, Stanley sneered."Everyone in Hovendale knows Jessica was the one I intended to marry. Weren't you aware when you schemed to replace her

Stanley's thin lips curved into a frosty arc. "Wendy, get back here immediately!"Wendy chuckled. "You expect me to come back just because you said so? We're divorced, Stanley. I'm not going to continue indulging you!"Stanley clenched his jaw. "I'll give you a chance to rewrite the reason for divorce!"Wendy's tone grew more playful. "Did I write anything wrong? Stanley, it's been six months since you woke up, hasn't it? Yet, in these six months, you haven't even held my hand. You were in a coma for three years, and although you're physically healthy now, I have legitimate reasons to believe you've developed functional problems. You're not potent anymore! Better hurry to find an experienced naturopath. As our parting gift, I wish you an early recovery of your manhood!"Stanley was rendered speechless. The veins on his forehead were visibly twitching.This woman was out of control."Wendy, I'll make you regret this! You'll know what I'm capable of sooner or later!""Sorry, but

Wendy arrived.After finishing their shopping spree at the mall, Cecelia brought Wendy directly to 1996 Bar. Tonight, she was determined to throw a celebration party for Wendy.Wendy hadn't expected to run into Stanley and his friends here, but she could hear their mocking remarks.She recognized Benny and the others in the luxury booth. They were part of Stanley's circle, and Benny was Stanley's close friend. Back when Stanley had a whirlwind romance with Jessica, they were all fans of Jessica, with Benny even regarding her as Stanley's future wife.Over the past three years, Wendy had never truly integrated into their group. None of them ever accepted her.The labels they plastered on her were always the same: desperate substitute bride, ugly duckling, country bumpkin, and the like.When a man didn't love you, his friends wouldn't respect you either.Cecelia, already fuming, rolled up her sleeves, ready to confront them. "I'm going to tear their mouths apart!"Wendy quickly h

Wendy furrowed her brows. "What did I do?"Stanley clenched his jaw. "Who told you to dress like this?"'What? Like this?' she wondered. "What do you mean, Stanley?!"Stanley glanced at her ultra-short skirt. "Your thighs are almost exposed. Do you really want people to see your legs like this?"Wendy's skirt was a bit short, but it was Cecelia's choice.Cecelia's exact words were, "My dearest Wendy doesn't show her legs, but look at how Jessica flaunts hers. Tonight, let everyone see who has the best legs in Hovendale."Wendy raised her finely arched eyebrows. "Looks like Mr. Hawk noticed my legs."Stanley paused.Wendy leaned back against the wall, appearing languid and graceful. She slowly lifted her right leg, her crystal-high heel brushing against his ankle.Stanley had on black trousers, showcasing his long, muscular legs, exuding an aura of coldness and restraint.Wendy's pale foot gently grazed up his ankle, moving provocatively along his calf. It was an act of seduct

Benny was stunned. '16 years old?'The reason people in Benny's social circle held Jessica in such high regard wasn't just because of her beauty. It was also because of her exceptional academic achievements. She was a high achiever at a prestigious university, someone unmatched even among Hovendale's socialites.She deserved to be with Stanley.For any woman, beauty alone was a dead end. Beauty combined with education was the real trump card. The higher the social class, the more they valued a woman's education.Benny's initial admiration for Wendy vanished instantly. His tone became dismissive. "Wendy, did you seriously drop out of school at 16?"Wendy glanced at Jessica, who stood there with pride, and smiled faintly. "Yes, I did stop studying at 16."Benny sneered, "Well, what a coincidence. Stanley also stopped studying at 16. But he's a true prodigy, earning dual master's degrees from Harfield at that age and making history. And you? Dropped out of high school with nothing t

Jessica smiled, her heart filled with sweetness. She leaned into Stanley's embrace, then tilted her delicate, radiant face to look up at him. "I knew it—you can't bear to let me go. You would never leave me."Stanley, as Hovendale's wealthiest man, exuded an air of elegance and strength that could dictate the rise and fall of fortunes. He fulfilled every fantasy she had about what a man should be.But three years ago, when he had been in a car accident and declared a vegetative state, with doctors pronouncing he would never wake again, how could she waste the prime of her youth on a man like that?So, she had fled.Who could have predicted that Wendy, who married him in her place, would somehow help Stanley wake up within three years?Even now, Jessica didn't understand how Stanley recovered. Could Wendy's fortune be aligned perfectly with his?Doctors called it a medical miracle.So, Jessica returned. She knew Stanley loved her—he would never truly abandon her.Stanley looke

Stanley's genius junior had directly rejected his friend request!At that moment, Zayn walked in with a cup of coffee. When he saw the screen on Stanley's phone, he was stunned. 'Did someone actually reject the CEO's friend request?'This was certainly something out of the ordinary."Sir, your junior is…quite special," Zayn said.Stanley scoffed. 'Special indeed.'She was the first person to reject him. If she didn't want to add him, so be it. Stanley picked up the coffee and took a sip, only to frown."Is the coffee not to your liking, sir? I'll make another cup," Zayn asked.Stanley suddenly remembered the coffee Wendy used to make—it was always just right for his taste.With an impassive expression, Stanley said, "Write an eight-figure check. That's my divorce settlement for Wendy."She said she wanted to leave with nothing, but he didn't believe it for a second. A girl from the countryside who had stopped schooling at sixteen—how would she make a living? She was just pla

Over the years, Stanley had been surrounded by the temptation of women, and he had met some skilled ones. He knew what Wendy was doing—she was trying to tease him. She wanted to see if she could hook him in, if he would take the bait.A thin, knowing smile tugged at the corner of Stanley's lips. That little temptress.Just then, his phone rang, cutting through the tension. The screen flashed with the caller ID, "Jessica".The display of her name immediately cooled Stanley down. The heat that Wendy had stirred up in him slowly faded. Stanley answered the call.Jessica's soft voice came through. "Stanley, are you still upset? I'm sorry. I shouldn't have argued with you or thrown things. Honestly, I was just jealous. I got jealous that you were so kind to Wendy. Please don't be angry anymore. I love you. I really, really love you!"Over the years, Jessica had been spoiled by him, but now, she was humbling herself, apologizing and coaxing him gently, telling him over and over how

Wendy had no idea what she was saying.Stanley looked at the ice cream in her hand, then back to her delicate, angelic face. His voice came out rough as he asked in return, "Some of what?"Wendy's mind was in a complete blur. She didn't understand what he meant by that. Her heart raced—thump, thump, thump. The tension in the air between them was palpable, almost like it could be cut with a knife.Wendy decided to put an end to the whole thing. "Mr. Hawk, I'm going to bed now. I'll hang up."She quickly ended the video call.Halsey, preparing to shower, noticed Wendy's flushed cheeks. "Wendy, why is your face so red?"Wendy touched her face absentmindedly. "Maybe it's just the heat. Hurry up and go take your shower, Halsey.""Okay," Halsey replied, heading off to the bathroom.Left alone, Wendy sat down, looking down at the ice cream in her hands. Slowly, her thoughts began to clear. Why had she panicked earlier? This morning, she had asked him on the phone if he wanted her

Stanley's voice was low and tense. "The herbal recipe you left for Grandma has gone missing."So that was what this was about.Wendy immediately grabbed a pen. "Just wait a second. I'll write it down for you."She bent her head and began to scribble the recipe on a piece of paper.As she did, her white camisole shifted slightly, revealing the soft curve of her figure, the fullness of her chest. Stanley's throat tightened. He already knew she was beautiful in more ways than one, but this—her slender waist, the way her curves gently flared out—was enough to stir the deepest parts of a man. It was all part of her allure. It was natural. "Wendy!" Stanley's voice was thick with barely contained tension.Wendy looked up, confused. "What's wrong?"She seemed so innocent, with those bright, clear eyes, so pure and unaware.The way she looked at him, oblivious to the effect she had on him, only stoked the fire within. Stanley swallowed hard and spoke again, his voice strained, "W

Stanley knew Wendy was fast, but he never imagined she could be this fast.He'd never come across a real challenge in a game until now—Wendy was the one to give him a run for his money.It was completely unexpected for him.Benny, sensing something was off, panicked. "What the hell, Stanley? Wendy can actually keep up with you. Stay focused! If I lose this round, I'll drop from champion to bronze!"As soon as he finished speaking, Zayn walked into the room. "Mr. Hawk, there's a call from the family estate…"The family estate? What had happened?Stanley's attention wavered.And in that second—game over.His fingers froze mid-air. He lost.While Stanley was distracted, Wendy took advantage, bringing her axe down hard and knocking him flat.He lost…to Wendy!Stanley had only wanted to teach her a small lesson, to make her cry…but this? Benny's voice suddenly erupted in disbelief. "What?! Stanley, you lost? Oh my god! I've dropped to bronze! Noooo…!"It had taken Benny three

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
