Chapter 160

Author: Glazed Snow
Nathan didn't even glance at the gifts from the others, but when it came to the one from Wendy, he seemed genuinely interested.

"I'm curious too," he said with a smile.

Benny casually placed the gift bag on the coffee table, and Nathan reached in to pull out the contents.

Wendy's heart sank as she realized the gift might disappoint Nathan. She nervously said, "Nathan, I came in a bit of a rush, so I just bought you—"

She was about to say "a wallet" but stopped abruptly when Nathan pulled out not a wallet, but a letter.

Wendy froze.

"Nathan, the pretty lady wrote you a letter? Come on, read it out loud for us!" someone urged.

Nathan held up the letter and read it out loud. "Nathan, today's your birthday, and I wanted to give you a special gift. Honestly, from the moment I saw you, I've fallen for you. I promise to be your girlfriend. Let's make this official."

Wendy felt her heart stop.

She didn't write this letter. Her gift had been swapped!

She recalled how Benny had hand

    "Stanley." Jessica finally spoke up, breaking the tension. "You don't even like Wendy, and we both know you two are bound to divorce eventually. But now Wendy has found her happiness, and it's with Nathan. Wendy managed to win over someone that even the richest debutantes couldn't. We should be happy for her, shouldn't we, Stanley?"Stanley's cold eyes briefly narrowed, his gaze sharpening at her words.At that moment, the attendants brought over the cake and lit the candles. "It's time for the birthday boy to make a wish and blow out the candles."Nathan blew out the candles and then began slicing the cake. The first piece, of course, was meant for the birthday boy.But Nathan took a piece of the cake and held it up to Wendy's lips instead.Wendy glanced at him before opening her mouth to eat. Just as she was about to take a bite, Nathan pulled his hand away, teasing her.Seeing the playful grin on Nathan's face, Wendy knew just how to play the part of the affectionate gir

    Stanley raised his hand and gently pulled his arm away from Jessica's grip. His voice was cold and indifferent as he said, "I've had some drinks, so I can't drive. I'm heading back to the office now. You can go home by yourself."Zayn pulled up with the Rolls Royce, and Stanley climbed into the car before it drove off.Jessica stood there, alone. She wasn't upset; on the contrary, she was rather pleased with how things were going.Just then, Sienna walked over, stomping her feet in frustration. "Jessica, can you believe that Wendy actually wrote a love letter to seduce Nathan? She's so shameless!"The love letter wasn't Wendy's doing—it was something Jessica had Benny prepare. But she hadn't told Sienna that. This was all part of her plan—getting Wendy and Nathan together while also fueling Sienna's hatred for Wendy."Sienna, Wendy doesn't deserve Nathan. But you know how men are—they always want what they can't have. Trust me, it won't be long before Nathan gets tired of her," Je

    Stanley opened his social media app and saw the latest post Nathan had shared. It was a photo taken at Clavendale University's sports stadium. The people were out of view, but their shadows were visible. One shadow was delicate and graceful, the other handsome and striking—obviously Wendy and Nathan. Nathan had captioned it, [The best birthday gift.] The post immediately attracted attention, and the wealthy heirs couldn't help but comment.[Nathan, it's your birthday today. Why are you still outside?] [Why are you two hanging out on campus? The presidential suite is already waiting for you!][You guys don't get it! Nathan's staying in the girls' dorm tonight.] [Dating a college girl—now that's exciting.]Stanley read through the comments, his throat tightening. His mind wandered back to Wendy's dorm, to the little bed with the heart-shaped prints—he had slept there not long ago. He and Wendy had shared that bed. Would Nathan be sleeping there tonight, too? Stanley lowe

    The tinted windows of the luxurious car allowed those inside to see out, but no one could peer inside. Wendy couldn't see Stanley, but she could feel the weight of his cold, dark gaze, fixated on her and Nathan. Why had he suddenly shown up to find her?Wendy turned to Nathan. "Nathan, it's getting late. I think I should head back to my dorm." Nathan grinned. "Alright, I'll come find you next time."He got into his Ferrari, and with a loud roar, the sports car sped off.Wendy watched Nathan leave before she walked toward the Rolls-Royce Phantom. She reached for the backseat door and slid inside.The Rolls-Royce glided smoothly down the road, the luxurious interior illuminated by the neon lights of the night. Stanley's hands, long and defined, gripped the steering wheel. The soft glow from the streetlights outside flickered across his handsome face, casting shadows and creating an air of mystery, as if his face were part of a classic black-and-white film.Wendy broke the sile

    Stanley was angry now—angry that she had said this was the last time and that he shouldn't come looking for her after this. Wendy's soft red lips moved toward him, but he impatiently pushed her away. However, her small hand, which had been resting on his shoulder, moved to wrap around his neck, pulling herself closer to him. "Stanley, don't push me away!"Her clear, shimmering eyes locked onto his, her voice soft but firm, with a hint of a playful lilt. The challenge in her tone made his muscles tighten."Same condition," she continued. "This is our secret. I won't tell Jessica."She kissed him again. Stanley's narrowed eyes darkened, blood rushing to his face. A man who had tasted that kind of pleasure once was like a wild animal, occasionally yearning for and remembering that feeling. Her boldness, her clinginess, easily sparked the fire within him.He gave up resisting, and as she pressed forward, he took control, his large hand gripping her smooth, fragrant shoulder.

    Halsey pulled Wendy up from the couch. "Wendy, wake up! What were you doing? You look completely wiped out."Wendy rubbed her sleepy eyes and mumbled, "I just want to sleep a little longer.""Sleep? No way! Get up now. Let's hit the bar." Halsey dragged Wendy to the bar, and before long, they were inside a luxurious private room with a few familiar faces: Jessica, Benny, Sienna, and some rich heirs.Benny, lounging on the sofa, spoke up. "Jessica, Stanley's been on a business trip for two days, right? Is he coming back tonight?"After that night, Stanley left for his trip, and Wendy hadn't seen him since. Naturally, they hadn't been in contact either. According to the unspoken agreement, after that night, they owed each other nothing—but they had one more secret between them.Jessica smiled slyly. "Yeah, Stanley's coming back tonight.""The other night, Mr. Hawk took his car on the highway, right? I heard he was speeding like he was in a race, and the camera caught him, so he g

    Wendy froze, unsure of what he meant. Wasn't the ruby necklace meant for Jessica? Why was he asking if she liked it? Could it be that he bought two—one for Jessica and one for her? It wasn't entirely impossible. He had the money, after all.Wendy found it almost laughable. No matter his intentions, she wasn't going to keep second-guessing him or chasing after him anymore. That night on the highway had already settled everything between them—they no longer owed each other. She put her phone away without replying. Just then, Jessica walked over with a bright smile on her face. "Wendy, you're here too?"Her mood was clearly great, likely because she'd heard Stanley was giving her a ruby necklace. She was someone who loved luxury, and knowing about that gift had clearly made her day.Wendy nodded. "Just came by to hang out.""Stanley's planning a trip with me and Sienna to a resort in a couple of days. It's famous for its hot springs, and we're going to relax in the baths.

    He had left.But Wendy wasn't thinking about his departure. What bothered her more was what he had done—how could he just toss that ruby necklace into the trash like it was nothing?That ruby was worth over a million!Even though he was rich, he shouldn't just throw away something so expensive!Without wasting a second, Wendy rushed to the trash can, reaching in to grab the precious bag. Fortunately, it wasn't dirty or damaged—how tragic it would have been if it had been ruined!Back in the dorm, Wendy sat at her vanity and opened the ornate box. The ruby and diamond necklace inside shimmered brilliantly under the light, stunning her with its breathtaking beauty.Stanley had always had impeccable taste. After all, he was born into a family of privilege, a high-born heir with a refined sense of style. Anything he chose would undoubtedly be exceptional.Though Wendy was wealthy herself, she rarely indulged in things like this. This was also the first time Stanley had given her a g

    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
