Chapter 188

Penulis: Glazed Snow
Nathan was doing fine, and his condition was stable.

The nurse left, and soon, Zayn's voice could be heard from outside the room.

"Mr. Hawk, you really need to take care of that hand. If you don't get it treated soon, it could be permanently damaged."

Wendy looked up. She noticed Stanley's tall, handsome figure standing by the door. He had been there all along.

Zayn, glancing at Wendy, added urgently, "Mrs. Hawk, Mr. Hawk's hand is still bleeding. Please, just say something."

Wendy noticed the blood staining the floor. His hand would likely need a lot of stitches.

She stood up and walked toward the door.

Stanley's eyes lit up as he saw her approach. His tall frame shifted slightly, his face showing a flicker of hope.

Zayn, relieved, said, "I knew it! Mrs. Hawk still cares about you. Mr. Hawk, you really should—"

But before he could finish, Wendy reached out and shut the door with a firm slam.

The door nearly hit Zayn and Stanley's faces, sending a cold draft through the gap.

    Glinda paused for a moment before quickly smiling and saying, "Alright, Wendy. You stay with your friend. When you have some free time, come back and have dinner with me.""Sure, Grandma," Wendy replied.The two of them ended the call.Glinda glanced at Stanley, who was still reading the business newspaper, his expression unreadable."Stanley, have you fought with Wendy?" Glinda asked.Stanley didn't look up from his paper. "No."Glinda let out a small laugh. "Do you know Wendy's friend? Is it a guy or a girl?"Stanley remained silent.Glinda reached over and snatched the newspaper from his hands. "You know, you've been holding the paper upside down."Stanley noticed for the first time that he had been holding the paper wrong. He pressed his lips together briefly.Glinda sighed and stood up. "I know you've been with that Jessica for a while, but nobody will wait around forever, Stanley. Wendy will eventually get fed up with waiting, and she'll leave. She's great, and you don'

    Wendy was speechless. Trish's voice came through, bubbling with excitement. "Wendy, guess what? Dr. Ceylan, the genius doctor, is actually a man! And get this—he's totally fallen for me. We're dating now!"What?Wendy's mind was spinning. "I can't talk to you right now. I'll tell you more later. But hey, you need to come to come home in a couple of days," Trish said before hanging up the phone abruptly.Wendy was certain now. Trish had to be dealing with some sort of scammer!Wendy took a deep breath and shook her head. She quickly headed to the bathroom for a hot shower. As she stepped out, her phone rang again. This time, it was Luna calling.Luna's voice was filled with desperation, and Wendy could hear her crying. "Wendy, I've run into some trouble. Can you come help me?"Wendy's grip tightened on the phone. "Luna, what's going on?""I'm working at the Gold Vista Hotel as a waitress, and just now, my manager took a liking to me and wanted me to spend the night with him.

    Jake stared at Wendy, his eyes lighting up in surprise. "And where did you come from, pretty girl? You look like an angel."Luna, frightened, hid behind Wendy. "This is my classmate... Mr. Silva, we're students. We're not selling our bodies. Please, leave us alone…""Students, huh? That's even better. I love schoolgirls," Jake said with a lecherous grin, eyeing Wendy hungrily. "Since you're classmates, you two can serve me tonight."With a wave of his hand, Jake instructed his bodyguards dressed in black, "Take them both away."Wendy quickly stepped in front of the trembling Luna, her gaze cold as she stared at Jake. "Kidnapping someone in broad daylight? Don't you realize this is illegal?""Illegal?" Jake burst out laughing, his tone full of arrogance. "In Hovendale, I'm a big shot. I dine with Mr. Hawk, the wealthiest man in town, and you're telling me about the law?"Jake brought up Stanley, the wealthiest man in Hovendale. Wendy hadn't heard from Stanley in days, but everyo

    He said he didn't know her. After speaking, Stanley stepped away, his long legs carrying him forward as he led the businessmen into the luxurious private room. Wendy's body stiffened slightly, the calm she had tried to maintain slipping away. Luna, still hiding behind Wendy, had stopped crying. Her pale face, once colorless, began to warm with a soft blush, her eyes glued to Stanley's tall, handsome figure as she stared after him, mesmerized. Once Stanley was out of sight, Jake turned his attention to Wendy. "Haha! You say you're Mrs. Hawk, but Mr. Hawk doesn't even know you. You're just a liar!" Wendy had no response. Jake wasn't in the mood to waste any more time. "Grab them!" he ordered. The two black-clad bodyguards immediately moved forward again, grabbing Wendy and Luna roughly. Luna struggled in their grasp. "Let go of me!" Wendy appeared calm, as she had a needle and some sleeping powder hidden on her. As soon as they entered the room with Jake, she w

    Stanley wanted Wendy to offer him a drink.Wendy froze, her body tense.Jake, too, stiffened in confusion. What was Stanley doing? Was he interested in Wendy? If that were the case, Jake knew his place. There was no way he'd dare compete with Stanley for a woman."What are you waiting for? Go offer Mr. Hawk the drink," Jake urged impatiently.The other businessmen laughed. "I've seen plenty of girls trying to offer Mr. Hawk a drink, but it's the first time I've seen Mr. Hawk ordering it.""Go on. Don't keep Mr. Hawk waiting."Everyone's eyes were on Wendy now, and she had no choice but to step forward and offer Stanley a drink.Wendy had no idea what Stanley's intentions were, but she could only stand and walk over to him, holding the glass in her hand. "Mr. Hawk, here's to you."As she stood, Stanley sat, and though she was slightly taller, he still looked at her with an air of dominance. His eyes swept over her, careless and indifferent, the gaze of a mature and wealthy bu

    He was intentionally teasing her. The moment she glared at him, it was the first sign of life in her.Stanley's voice was low and commanding. "Beg me, and I'll take you away."Being the experienced businessman he was, he already knew what kind of predicament she was in. He wanted her to speak up and ask him for help.Wendy would never do that.She didn't need him to save her. She didn't want to owe him anything."Mr. Hawk, please let go of me!" Wendy struggled fiercely, forcing herself out of his grasp and standing up from his lap.She didn't want to stay in the room any longer. Without a word, she opened the door to the private room and stepped out.Jake immediately stood up. "Mr. Hawk, can I excuse myself?"Jake wouldn't dare leave without Stanley's permission.Stanley remained silent.The silence was enough of an answer. Jake quickly left.Stanley's handsome face turned cold, his expression darkening.The people in the room noticed the shift. They exchanged looks, uncert

    Stanley yanked open the car's back door and grabbed Jake by the collar, dragging him out.Jake was shaking with fear. "M-Mr. Hawk, what did I do to upset you this much? Please—" Stanley didn't give him a chance to finish. With a swift punch, he slammed his fist into Jake's face.With a loud bang, Jake's body collided with the side of the car.Stanley's muscles flexed beneath his suit as he punched again and again, each blow landing with bone-crushing force, driving Jake into the car. Blood splattered across Jake's face, and he couldn't even beg for mercy anymore.Stanley paused for a moment, his cold gaze sweeping over Jake. "Which hand did you touch her with? This one?"With a sickening crack, Stanley snapped Jake's right arm with ease.Jake collapsed to the ground, his breath ragged and shallow.Just then, Zayn and his men arrived. "Mr. Hawk."Stanley's chiseled features remained taut, his voice icy as he ordered, "Clean this up."Zayn nodded. "Understood."Stanley turned

    Halsey gave Wendy a playful wink. "Wendy, your husband did pretty well this time."Luna stared at Wendy in shock. "Wendy, Mr. Hawk is your husband? Are you really Mrs. Hawk?"Halsey nodded with a grin. "That's right, Wendy is Mrs. Hawk!"Luna was in disbelief. She grabbed Wendy's arm, her face full of envy. "Wendy, you're so lucky. You must be so happy!"Wendy smiled awkwardly, unsure of how to respond. She didn't even know what happiness was anymore.Wendy lay down on her bed and took out her phone, opening up the conversation between her and "Hubby".After a moment of hesitation, she decided to send a simple message. [Thank you.]Just two words. Thank you.Ding.The reply came almost immediately.Stanley's message was short and to the point. [How are you gonna thank me?]Wendy curled her delicate fingers around the phone, hesitating to reply. She pressed the phone under her pillow and closed her eyes.-The next day, Luna arrived at Hawk Group. The company's headquarters

    Stanley's expression softened a little."I like this bag. As a token of my gratitude, I'd like to invite Jessica to my house tomorrow," Halsey said.Hearing that she was inviting Jessica to the Lincoln family's estate tomorrow, Stanley nodded. "Alright."After he left, Wendy returned. "Hey, sorry I was gone for so long."Halsey took Wendy's hand. "I was just about to come find you."Wendy smiled in return. "Let's go. I'm hungry. Let's head to the snack street.""Alright. I'll take care of the bill," Halsey replied.Wendy immediately stopped her and pulled out a gold-embossed black card from her bag. "Don't fight me for it. Tonight, I'm paying. This is the card Stanley gave me when we divorced. From now on, I'll use his card. Let him foot the bill."Halsey's eyes lit up. "Attagirl! This is Mr. Hawk's compensation for you. If you don't spend it, Jessica will."Wendy stared at the black card in her hand. "How much do you think this card is worth?"Halsey thought for a moment. "I

    They had all hoped to see Wendy make a fool of herself, but in the end, she had humiliated them completely. It was outrageous!Stanley watched Wendy's slender figure as she walked away, his gaze deep and unreadable. No one could tell what he was thinking. He pressed his lips together, then said softly, "Alright, that's enough."Jessica quieted down, her anger toward Wendy still simmering beneath the surface. She tried to suppress it, focusing instead on her goal. "Stanley, you said tonight you'd introduce me to Bebe. Where is she?"Jessica hadn't forgotten the reason she was here. She was determined to marry Stanley as soon as possible.Having just seen Halsey, Stanley murmured, "I'll go find her."Without missing a beat, Jessica quickly handed him the limited-edition handbag. "Stanley, give this to her. She'll love it!"-Noticing that Wendy had been gone for a while, Halsey started to feel uneasy. She stood up to go look for her.Just then, Stanley called out, "Bebe."Hals

    Wendy stood there, her eyes locked on Stanley.Stanley gave her a cold glance before turning his attention to Jessica, his voice gentle. "Let's head back."He had just acknowledged it—and he did it in front of Wendy.Jessica smiled sweetly, knowing that Wendy's heart was likely burning with a mix of envy, jealousy, and resentment. Wendy was probably suffering right now.A country bumpkin, still thinking to compete with her? Dream on!"Alright."Jessica wrapped her arm around Stanley's, turning to leave with him.Just as they were about to walk away, Wendy's clear voice rang out behind them. "Stanley."She was calling after him.Stanley stopped in his tracks, turning around.Jessica smiled. "Wendy, you two are divorced now. Are you still hung up on Stanley? Want to try to win him back?"Wendy stood tall in the corridor, her posture straight and unyielding. She didn't acknowledge Jessica, her eyes, clear as ever, focused on Stanley's distinguished face.

    The highly anticipated pairing had already stolen all the attention, overshadowing everything else.Jessica's heart burned with jealousy, consumed by a deep resentment toward this genius freshman.At that moment, Sienna suddenly exclaimed, "Look, Wendy's here!"Stanley, holding a glass of wine, wasn't in the best of moods tonight. He was indifferent to everything around him. But when he heard Sienna, he looked up, his sharp, handsome eyes glimmering.He saw Wendy.Tonight, Wendy wore a sleeveless black dress. The tight fit accentuated her slender waist, and the puffed-out skirt made her long, white legs stand out even more. As she entered, she immediately caught the attention of many. Her long, jet-black hair flowed smoothly down her back, and a sweater hung casually from her arms. From his angle, he could only see her profile, which made her already delicate features look even smaller. Her pale, translucent skin gave her an ethereal, almost otherworldly quality.That aura of h

    Sienna immediately chimed in, "Jessica's right! The genius freshman could be ugly and overweight. Your illusion will shatter once you see her."Jessica and Sienna both started poking fun at the genius freshman, trying to stir the pot.Benny, however, was unfazed. "I've seen my fair share of pretty faces, and they don't interest me. Even if this genius freshman isn't anything special, my feelings wouldn't change. Marrying her would improve my family's genes."Jessica and Sienna were stunned by his response.It seemed Benny's mind was set on this genius freshman, and there was no pulling him back now.The other rich kids around them chuckled. "Benny, are you even sure if she's single?"Benny had no idea who the genius freshman was. A while ago, he had tagged her in a group chat, asking if she had a boyfriend. Her response had simply been, [Get lost.]He immediately pulled out his phone. "I'll text her right now."The other rich kids were excited. "Hurry up, hurry up!"Benny open

    Wendy said seriously, "As medical practitioners, we must be meticulous. A tiny mistake can lead to disastrous consequences."At that moment, Cyril stood while Wendy sat. Despite the height difference between them, her slender, graceful back was perfectly straight. Her intelligent, clear eyes were full of earnestness as she gave Cyril a lesson, almost as though she were the teacher and he the student.Cyril, speechless, was taken aback. Was she teaching him? Did she really think she was his teacher? He had only one teacher, and that was Dr. Ceylan!Cyril couldn't believe what was happening. He was about to reprimand Wendy, but before he could say anything, she spoke up again. "Alright, Cyril, you can go now."Cyril was stunned. She was calling him by his first name again.The interaction left him speechless. He simply turned and walked away.-Back in the office, Cyril was fuming.

    Stanley's deep voice rang out. "Mr. Suarez, are you saying that the genius freshman is attending the Summit Academic Forum?"What?The phrase "genius freshman" struck Jessica like a lightning bolt, instantly capturing her attention. Was the mysterious and aloof genius freshman about to make an appearance?"She's actually been in Hovendale this whole time," Dave replied. "Unfortunately, you've never met her. She'll be attending the Summit Academic Forum, so you two will finally get to meet. Please make sure to find some time to attend the event."Stanley nodded. "Alright."After they hung up, Jessica was in shock. "Stanley, the genius freshman has been in Hovendale all this time? Who is she?"Hovendale's circle wasn't that large, and she had never heard of this brilliant young woman before.Jessica felt uneasy about the existence of this genius freshman. Stanley, equally unaware, didn't know who she was either. Thinking about the freshman's mysterious, cool demeanor, Stanley

    Before Zayn could continue, Stanley interrupted in a low voice, "We're divorced. There's no need to update me on her situation."Zayn paused for a moment, then nodded respectfully. "Understood." He turned and left the room.At that moment, Jessica walked out. She had overheard everything Stanley had said. A smile curled on her lips as she approached him. She knew Stanley's decisive nature. Once he had divorced Wendy, he wanted nothing more to do with her.Now, his heart and mind were entirely focused on Jessica. She was his one true love.Jessica stepped closer and wrapped her arms around Stanley's waist from behind.Stanley didn't need to look to know it was her.

    After the divorce, Stanley and Wendy never contacted each other again. This was the first time he had heard any news about her.It turned out she had fallen seriously ill.Jessica immediately grinned, her red lips curling with a mix of pride, pity, and mockery. "I never would have guessed that Wendy was so deeply in love with Stanley."Trish joined in, mocking Wendy as well. "With her background, she'll never find another man like Mr. Hawk. It's honestly a little sad when you think about it."Jessica tilted her head, gazing at Stanley with a playful pout. "Stanley, now that your ex-wife's sick, don't you think you should give her a call and comfort her?"Stanley remained expressionless, his handsome face still as composed as ever. He looked at Jessica. "Sure. I'll call her right now."He made a move to reach for his phone.Jessica's expression instantly changed. "You wouldn't dare!"Stanley smirked. "Then why did you suggest it?"He was just teasing her—he had no intention of
