Chapter 170

Author: Glazed Snow
Jessica looped her arm through Stanley's, leaning into him. "Stanley, let's share a room."

Nathan wrapped his arm around Wendy's slender shoulders. "Wendy, let's stay in the same room, too."

Stanley glanced at Wendy, watching as she nodded. "Alright."

She agreed to stay in the same room as Nathan.

Stanley's lips tightened into a thin line.

Wendy noticed Stanley's gaze. She lifted her eyes and met the cold, dark depths of his stare.

What was he looking at her for?

The memory of the awkward exchange on WhatsApp the night before suddenly rushed back to her. At the time, she had been scrambling to find an escape, but now, she calmly shifted her gaze away.

The hotel manager smiled warmly. "Mr. Hawk, Mr. Lowe, here we have the Presidential Oceanic Suite and the Executive Oceanic Suite. How would you like to divide them?"

Jessica, already aware that the Presidential Suite had the best view, smiled triumphantly. "I'll take the Presidential Suite. Wendy, you and Nathan can have the Exe

    Stanley's sports car suddenly swerved toward Wendy, attempting to force her off the track. But Wendy didn't back down. The right side of her car scraped against the wall, sending sparks flying. In the blink of an eye, she skillfully drifted her car to the side and chased after Stanley. Her control of the car was impressive, even stunning. Stanley watched Wendy, feeling the breeze on his face. Her long, dark hair flowed out behind her, rippling in the wind, some strands catching on her delicate cheeks and slender neck. She looked so radiant, so captivating, it was impossible to look away. Wearing sunglasses, she slowly glanced at him, then gave him the finger."Damn it!" Stanley muttered under his breath, a low, rough laugh escaping from his throat. The sight of her stirred something deep inside him. She made his heart itch. In his mind, Wendy was just a country girl, always causing trouble and orbiting around him. But there were moments, like now, when her cleverness in ou

    Nathan chuckled. "So, the 'help' Wendy was talking about was Jessica."Stanley raised an eyebrow. "Help?""Well, earlier, you and Wendy were neck and neck," Nathan continued, "Wendy said that Jessica has a weak heart, and even if you're the best driver, Jessica can't stand the speed, and she's bound to help Wendy out."Did she really say that?Stanley's gaze shifted toward Wendy's retreating figure, and a faint smile tugged at his lips. Nathan nudged him with his shoulder. "She's interesting, isn't she?"Stanley raised an eyebrow, but didn't answer. Meanwhile, Jessica stood there, completely ignored, feeling like she was invisible. -Wendy and Nathan entered the Presidential Suite with a breathtaking view of the sea, while Jessica and Stanley headed to the Executive Suite. Cecelia and Sienna had also arrived, eager to visit the famous hot springs at the resort later that evening. Cecelia grabbed Wendy's arm. "Wendy, let's go buy some bikinis!"They arrived at the bikin

    First, it was a race; now, it was a battle of wealth.When it came to money, Stanley, the richest man in Hovendale, clearly wasn't someone who could lose. Jessica flashed him a coy smile, her pretty face glowing as she pleaded with him to buy the bikini.Stanley glanced at Jessica, then shifted his gaze to Wendy. Wendy was looking at him with her clear, bright eyes. Jessica clung to his arm, pouting and sweetly begging, "Stanley, please buy it for me. I really want it!"Stanley turned to the shopkeeper. "I'll pay you double what it's worth."He offered to double the price to buy the bikini for Jessica.Jessica lifted her chin proudly, like a peacock flaunting her feathers, casting a smug look at Wendy as if to say, "Look, Stanley bought it for me."Nathan quickly chimed in. "Stanley, you're really killing the fun here. Sir, I'll pay three times the price."Nathan was willing to pay three times the price to buy it for Wendy.Wendy glanced at Nathan, shaking her head. "Nath

    Jessica stepped into the hot spring pool and walked over to Stanley's side. "Stanley, do you think I look good?"Stanley looked at her, but before he could answer, Cecelia pulled Wendy into the pool.Cecelia hopped into the water. "Wendy, come on, get in!"Stanley looked up at Wendy. She had changed into her bikini, but she looked uncomfortable. She had wrapped a towel around herself, trying to cover up.Jessica immediately sneered, "Wendy, why are you wearing a towel? Are you not confident in your body?"Sienna watched with amusement, clearly enjoying the scene."Come on, Wendy. Everyone's waiting for you to take off the towel!" Cecelia grinned and yanked the towel off Wendy."Ah!" Wendy gasped in surprise, her body suddenly exposed to everyone's gaze.Wendy was wearing a magenta bikini. Her skin was naturally fair, in a way different from Jessica's—Jessica's was the result of expensive treatments, but Wendy's skin was like that of a delicate tulip, soft and pure. Her body was

    Wendy found herself puzzled. Why was Stanley looking at her like that? Jessica was right there beside him, so why wasn't he looking at her? Lately, it felt like Stanley had been watching her more than usual. Nathan looked at Wendy. "Wendy, let's go to that hot spring over there." Cecelia covered her mouth, trying to hide her laugh. "Nathan wants to be alone with you, Wendy. Go on, then." As she spoke, Cecelia shot Stanley a glance. Noticing his gloomy expression, she felt elated for some reason.Wendy followed Nathan as they walked to a different hot spring. They chatted for a while, but before long, Nathan's phone rang. He excused himself to take the call."Wendy, I'll be right back. I just need to take this.""Alright," she replied.Nathan walked off to answer his phone, and Wendy lingered in the water for a bit. She noticed a vendor selling ice cream and, unable to resist the temptation, went over to buy some. However, when she reached the vendor, he had already left.

    Lionel had arrived with his men.Stanley recognized Lionel. He was a tough, dangerous guy, the second-in-command in a notorious gang. He was known for being ruthless, with the blood of many on his hands. Lionel had come to the resort with his boss's wife, and Wendy had just happened to walk in on them.There was no way Lionel would let Wendy leave this place alive.In the criminal underworld, there were rules. The worlds of law and crime didn't mix, and Stanley didn't want things to escalate here.At that moment, Lionel and his bodyguards approached. "It's them, Lionel!" one of the men called out.Stanley glanced down at Wendy and kissed her hard on the lips.Wendy had already heard Lionel's voice approaching. Before she could react, Stanley's kiss crashed down on her. It was aggressive, forceful, almost as if he was taking his frustration out on her. He kissed her like he was devouring her.Wendy pressed her hands against his chest, trying to push him away, but Stanley's voic

    Stanley's tall, solid frame trapped Wendy against the rock. In this secluded place, he was offering to buy her something, and for some reason, Wendy couldn't shake the feeling that they were sneaking around, like she was his secret mistress.In reality, she was his legitimate wife."I don't want clothes," she said, trying to push him away.Stanley's gaze softened, and he pulled out an ice cream cone. "How about some ice cream?"Wendy blinked in surprise. Stanley was holding a strawberry-flavored ice cream cone."When did you buy this?" she asked, still in a bit of disbelief."Just now," Stanley answered casually. He had been following her since he saw her chasing after the ice cream vendor earlier.Wendy lowered her gaze, not expecting Stanley to buy her the treat.Stanley held the ice cream close to her lips. "Take a bite." Wendy looked up at him with her clear eyes. "I don't want to."In truth, she did want to. Her eyes had lit up when she had spotted the ice cream cart ea

    Wendy glanced at Stanley while holding the strawberry ice cream.Stanley stood tall with his long legs, watching her quietly, as if waiting to see how she would respond."Who said someone bought this ice cream for me? I bought it myself." Wendy offered a small fib.Jessica and Sienna seemed doubtful, exchanging skeptical glances.Stanley watched her, a small smirk tugging at his lips. She was such a liar.Wendy didn't want to engage in this game any longer. She turned to Nathan and said, "Nathan, I don't feel like staying in the hot spring anymore. Let's go back to the room."Nathan nodded. "Okay."Nathan took Wendy's hand, and they began to leave.Sienna sneered, "Wendy is definitely lying. I'm sure a man bought her that ice cream. And now she's rushing back with Nathan, probably hoping to sleep with him."Jessica linked her arm through Stanley's strong one, leaning in. "Stanley, Wendy is Nathan's girlfriend now. They're staying in the same room tonight. Do you think they'll

    Stanley scanned the room. "This place must have cost quite a bit to decorate, huh?"Wendy shrugged. "So what?""Did Samuel pay for all of this?""Yeah, he paid for everything. He bought the luxury car, the mansion—everything. I just brought my stuff and moved in."Stanley pressed his lips together in thought. Then, his eyes landed on something on the coffee table."What's this?" Stanley moved toward the table.Wendy looked up, her clear eyes suddenly narrowing in shock. On the coffee table was a pregnancy test.Wendy reached out to grab it, but Stanley was faster. He snatched up the test before she could.He glanced at the test, then at her. "Why did you buy a pregnancy test?"Wendy quickly scanned it. Thankfully, it was a new one, and there were no two red lines—thankfully, it didn't reveal that she was pregnant.Since Stanley didn't want kids and had no plans of being a father, she hadn't planned on telling him.Wendy wasn't sure what his reaction would be. If he knew she w

    On the other side, Stanley pulled Wendy out of the bar, his long strides quick and confident. Wendy could barely keep up, stumbling behind him.Wendy frowned. "Stanley, let go of me!"Stanley opened the door of his luxury car and shoved her into the passenger seat before he slid into the driver's seat.The Rolls-Royce Phantom sped down the road, the city's neon lights casting a glow on the sleek car. Wendy raised an eyebrow. "Did you finish dinner already? Was the lady's dance not enough to keep you around?"Stanley's sudden appearance at the bar had caught Wendy off guard, especially since she had just seen him watching a group of beautiful dancers moments ago.His hand, adorned with an expensive watch, rested on the steering wheel. The city's lights reflected off his sharp, handsome face, making him look both refined and striking. "You saw me?" he asked, his voice smooth.Wendy nodded. "Yeah. Your charm seems endless. Everywhere, there's someone falling for you."Stanley's

    Dwight grabbed the blanket and pulled it over his handsome face, not saying a word. He wasn't in the mood to talk.The first time he did something bad, and she caught him. His luck was unbelievable.Halsey reached out and pulled the blanket off his face. "Dwight, talk to me. Why are you watching this?"Now, Dwight lay flat on the bed, one long leg hanging off the edge. His posture was relaxed, but there was an untamed, wild energy about him—reckless, carefree.Halsey snatched the blanket off his face, her soft body pressing into him, her weight on top of him.Dwight, feeling resigned, let go of any pretense. "So what if I watched it?""You…" Halsey was left speechless by his shamelessness.Dwight looked at her small, oval face. "You can leave now.""I'm not leaving.""Then what do you want?""I want to watch too!"Dwight narrowed his eyes and reached for the phone, trying to stop her from seeing it.But Halsey had already clicked on the video. She was curious, after all—she

    It was porn.The moment the audio filled the room, Dwight immediately realized what was going on and quickly shut it off.He sent two words to Warren. [Wanna die?]Warren laughed. [You have a girlfriend now. You should start learning. It's time to widen your horizons.]Dwight quickly replied, [Shut up!]Warren didn't dare to send another message.Dwight returned to studying Phantom's files. Before he knew it, half an hour had passed. He was lying on the bed, his arm resting behind his head. His mind was in a chaotic swirl, and it was unclear what he was thinking about.His mind had always been calm before.But after meeting Halsey, things started to feel a little off.Somehow, Dwight found himself reaching for his phone again and clicking on the video.In the room next door, Halsey and Madeline had already settled into bed, chatting.Halsey asked, "How's your mom's health been lately?"Madeline nodded. "She's much better. After the last time she went to the hospital and got

    And on top of that, Halsey had taken off her outer clothes.Halsey let out a soft gasp. "Ah—mmm!"She was about to cry out again, but Dwight quickly covered her mouth with his hand, silencing her."Don't make a sound," he whispered urgently. "My mom and my sister are in the house. Do you want them to see us like this?"Halsey blinked, her wide eyes filled with surprise as she looked at him. She pulled his hand away. "I won't make a sound. Just put me down."Dwight released his hold, and Halsey carefully climbed off him.However, as she moved, her hand brushed against something. It wasn't the first time she had touched it, but this time, curiosity got the better of her, and she reached out. "What's this?""Halsey, don't touch that!" Dwight tried to stop her hand from reaching any further.Yet, Halsey was too quick. He couldn't stop her in time.Dwight's body stiffened. A flush of desire spread across his face, creeping up from the corners of his eyes.Halsey quickly realized wh

    Halsey stared out the window at the pouring rain. How was she supposed to get back to school in this weather?Madeline spoke up. "Halsey, it's too dangerous to go back in this rain. Why don't you stay here tonight?"Tina nodded in agreement. "Yeah, Halsey, stay here. You can sleep in Maddy's room."Tina liked Halsey a lot, but she was also very clear about boundaries. She wouldn't allow Halsey to sleep in the same room as Dwight.Halsey smiled and nodded. "Alright. Looks like I'm staying with you tonight, Maddy."Madeline happily linked arms with Halsey. "Come on! I'll show you to my room."Once inside Madeline's room, Madeline pulled out a new nightgown. "This is new. You can wear it."Halsey took it in her hands. "Thanks.""Go take a shower first," Madeline suggested.There were three rooms in the house, none of them very big—Tina had one, Dwight had one, and Madeline had the other. The bathroom was shared.Halsey held the nightgown in front of her as she headed toward the d

    Warren had come looking for Dwight, but he wasn't expecting to find him with Halsey. When he saw her, his eyes went wide in surprise.Halsey quickly pulled away from Dwight, feeling a bit embarrassed. She smiled at Warren and introduced herself. "Hi, I'm Halsey."Warren grinned. "Hi, nice to meet you. I'm Warren. Dwight, you got a girlfriend?"Dwight shook his head. "She's not my girlfriend.""I am!" Halsey said, smiling brightly.Dwight gave her a look of disbelief. Warren laughed. "Dwight, I thought you were going to die a lonely man. You never showed any interest in girls before, but now I get it. It's not that you weren't interested, just that you had high standards and hadn't found someone you liked. Halsey here—she's way out of the league of the girls who used to chase you around!"Dwight set the spatula down and looked at Warren. "Let's talk outside."They stepped out into the yard, and Dwight said, "Alright, enough with the small talk. What did you come here for?"Warr

    Dwight didn't respond. Halsey watched him, noticing how his freshly washed, short hair was still damp, his black T-shirt and pants giving him a more youthful, handsome vibe.He was an excellent cook, his skills honed from a young age. A man who could cook was undeniably more attractive.The more Halsey looked at him, the more she found herself drawn to him. "Dwight, why aren't you talking to me? If you keep ignoring me, I might just have to tickle you."Without warning, she reached out and tickled him.Her soft little hands landed on his toned waist, sending a tingly sensation through him. Dwight quickly caught both of her flailing wrists with one hand and pushed her firmly against the wall. "What are you doing? Stop it."Halsey struggled, trying to pull her hands free. "Why are you being so mean?"Dwight didn't let go.Halsey stood on her tiptoes and quickly kissed him on the lips.Dwight froze for a moment.Seeing that he didn't resist, Halsey grew bolder and leaned in ag

    Halsey greeted them, "Mrs. Garner, Maddy, hello."Tina was visibly happy. "Dwight, you should have told us Halsey was coming. We could have prepared a few more dishes."Dwight was about to say that Halsey wasn't eating here, but she cut in before he could. "Mrs. Garner, I'm not picky. As long as there's enough food, I'm fine."Tina smiled, "Well, we definitely have plenty."Everyone laughed, their mood light and cheerful.Dwight stated, "I'm going to take a shower."He went back to his room, turning on the shower and letting the cold water pour over him. The aphrodisiac Penny had prepared for him was potent. Dwight had been around long enough to recognize these kinds of tricks, but still, as a man, the effect of the drug was something he couldn't easily shake off. The cold water hit his solid muscles, splashing off him. He closed his eyes, trying to focus.Suddenly, the door opened, and Halsey's soft voice rang out. "Dwight."He didn't look up.
