Chapter 216

Author: Glazed Snow
Wendy's pale eyes instantly reddened. She had always known that Stanley knew exactly how to humiliate a person.

If he wanted to shame someone, he would do it in the most cruel, humiliating way possible.

She hadn't asked Halsey to call him.

Even if she had, so what?

He was the one who hadn't used any protection!

"I understand," Wendy said, her voice thick with emotion. "Don't worry, Mr. Hawk. I won't call you again. You can leave now."

She forced herself to lift her gaze, trying to stop the tears from spilling. She didn't want to cry in front of him.

Stanley noticed the redness around her eyes, and an unexpected sense of satisfaction surged through him. It felt almost like revenge, like a deep, bitter kind of justice.

He knew he hated her. He hated that she didn't show up that night.

He had deliberately called Zayn, knowing that he would go looking for her.

But she never came.

He hated even more that she had called him when she passed out.

She got allergic to morning-after

    Wendy lay on her side, her back turned to him, while Stanley sat on the edge of the bed. They looked like a married couple in the middle of a bitter argument.Stanley clenched his fists, then, after a long pause, he finally spat out a single word. "Sure."He stood up and walked out.He left.Tears that Wendy had been holding back slipped down her face uncontrollably. She grabbed the blanket and pulled it over her tear-streaked face. It wasn't a big deal. It was just a bad night. If he didn't have feelings for her, she would just pretend it had been a bad dream.Still, her heart ached. It hurt so much.Wendy knew deep down, she was still in love with Stanley.So deeply in love.-Since that day, Wendy and Stanley hadn't spoken again. The focus of the media during this time, however, was all on Luna.Luna had suddenly joined one of the most talked-about variety shows, and her popularity skyrocketed due to her pure and sweet image. She became known for her innocent persona and

    Luna immediately stopped in her tracks. "Wendy, Halsey, what a coincidence! You're both here, too."Wendy and Halsey took a step closer to Luna, but her bodyguards in black blocked their way."Stop right there!" one of the bodyguards ordered.Luna waved her hand dismissively, smiling. "It's fine. They're my classmates."The bodyguards stepped aside, and Wendy and Halsey finally made their way to Luna."Luna, I can't believe you've become a star!" Halsey exclaimed, looking at her in surprise.Luna raised an eyebrow. "Yeah, I got myself a boyfriend. He's the one who helped me become a big star.""A boyfriend? Luna, you're dating someone? I've never heard about this boyfriend before," Halsey replied, clearly surprised.Luna flashed a sweet smile. "My boyfriend is handsome and rich, and he spoils me. He loves me a lot."With that, Luna took a step forward and grabbed Wendy's hand. "Wendy, things are going so well for me now. You must be happy for me, right? You must wish me and my

    Cecelia had been taken to the police station?Wendy's face turned pale as she hung up the phone. She turned to Halsey. "Halsey, I need to go to the police station!""I'll go with you," Halsey replied, already following her.-At the police station, Wendy and Halsey found Cecelia locked in a holding cell. Wendy grasped Cecelia's cold hands. "Cecelia, what happened? Why are you here?"Cecelia's face was pale, and she looked utterly confused. "Wendy, this is all connected to that celebrity, Luna Fisher."Cecelia explained what had happened. "Luna went to Ella Magazine for a photoshoot. They needed her to do a stunt with a wire, but someone had cut the wire in advance. Luna fell, and she pointed at me, saying she saw me cut the wire. The police arrested me right away. Please, Wendy, you have to believe me! I didn't do it! I didn't cut the wire. I have no reason to harm her!" Cecelia's voice was frantic. Luna had falsely accused her, making it look like she had tried to kill her.

    Wendy had already tested the water's temperature. It was lukewarm, not hot at all.Her sharp, clear eyes locked onto Luna's face. "You intentionally framed Cecelia. It wasn't about her at all, was it? It's me you've got an issue with."Luna shrugged nonchalantly, a sly smile spreading across her lips. "Yeah, it is."Halsey was fuming. "Luna, have you lost your mind? Wendy has always considered you a friend. Don't you remember who rushed to save you when Mr. Silva took you away from Gold Vista Hotel? Now that you're a big star, you've forgotten all about that and turned your back on everyone? You're just repaying kindness with malice! What happened to your conscience?"Luna didn't show the slightest bit of guilt. Instead, she coldly chuckled. "Finally, you're saying what's really on your mind. You're just jealous of me. You're jealous because I found a rich boyfriend. You're jealous because I became a big star!"Jealous?Halsey was speechless. "If you're so proud, why don't you ju

    Wendy withdrew her gaze and shook her head. "Halsey, I'm fine." She pulled out her phone and dialed the Hawk family's estate. Glinda's voice came through, full of cheer. "Wendy, you finally decided to call! I've missed you so much!" Wendy looked out the window at the sleek, business-class car approaching. "Grandma, I don't have class tonight. I can come back to the family estate for dinner." "That's wonderful! Stanley's coming back tonight too. I'll be waiting for you." "Okay." After ending the call, Wendy turned to Halsey and said, "Halsey, I need to go back to the Hawks.""Alright. Go have dinner with Mrs. Glinda," Halsey replied. Wendy met his gaze. "No, I'm going to find out who's backing Luna." "What?" Halsey blinked, clearly taken aback. -The long Rolls-Royce glided steadily down the road. Zayn drove up front while Luna sat in the back, glancing at the man beside her. Stanley wore a tailored black suit, a handkerchief tucked into his pocket. He

    Stanley glanced at Luna beside him. "Get out."He ordered her to leave the car.And just like that, he dropped her off in the middle of the road.Luna got out, and the business car sped off with a whoosh, leaving her surrounded by exhaust fumes.Luna clenched her fists and stomped her foot in frustration....Wendy had already arrived at the Hawk family's estate, sitting on the living room sofa and chatting with Glinda.Not long after, the large estate doors opened. A chill breeze followed a tall, dignified figure inside—Stanley had returned.The housekeeper greeted him respectfully. "Mr. Hawk."Stanley took off his shoes at the entrance and strode into the living room, his long legs carrying him effortlessly. When he saw Wendy, their eyes met.It had been a while since they last saw each other, not since that day in the school infirmary. Wendy had lost some weight and appeared more delicate. Her once-perfectly round face now had a sharper, cooler air about it.She was still

    Stanley's face turned cold in an instant. He had never forgotten about her taking the morning-after pill for Nathan. The lack of contact between them these past few weeks was his way of slowly distancing himself. But today, she came back to the family estate for dinner. He thought she was softening, maybe even trying to make amends. And yet, what was she saying?She said she wanted a divorce, and that she couldn't wait another day.Did she think he had the patience to deal with her?Stanley's eyes sharpened, cold as knives, as he grabbed her slender arm. "Wendy, you came back tonight just to make me miserable, didn't you?"Wendy immediately jerked away from his grip. "Don't touch me with your filthy hands!"What did she say?She tilted her face up, meeting his dark, threatening gaze, her voice cold and steady as she enunciated, "Stanley, you are absolutely disgusting."Disgusting in a way she couldn't stand anymore.Stanley's temples pulsed with veins. His grip tightened ar

    "Enough! Stop!" Wendy cut him off, her voice trembling with anger. She didn't want to hear anymore.Not a word more.Stanley sneered, his eyes hard with a cruel gleam. He wanted Wendy to listen—to make her remember that all of this, everything he was saying, was because she had pushed him away. She had turned him down, so he gave everything she didn't want to someone else—someone like Luna.He released her sharply, his voice cold as ice. "Fine. If you want a divorce, you'll get it. We'll go tomorrow. If it weren't for Grandma, I would've kicked you out of the Mrs. Hawk position a long time ago. There's a line of women waiting outside!"Wendy's heart ached, her fingers curling into delicate fists as she held back her tears. "Then I'll see you tomorrow at 9:00 AM, outside the clerk's office."Without another word, Wendy turned and left, not looking back.Stanley's gaze followed her retreating figure, his face cold and distant. Fine, he would get a divorce. He had already made

    Wendy asked if Stanley had ever had feelings for her.The question left him momentarily stunned.Of course, he had.He had once caught himself thinking about Wendy in a romantic sense. He felt reluctant to let go of her—he felt drawn to her, wanting to claim her.He had feelings for Wendy, but in the grand scheme of things, that feeling meant nothing compared to how he felt for Jessica.Now, with the divorce looming, he intended to cut all ties, to sever them completely without hesitation.He spoke the words that seemed to crush the air between them: "Wendy, I love Jessica."He said he loved Jessica.The light in Wendy's eyes slowly dimmed, the question she had asked now feeling like a painful mistake. She had set herself up for humiliation—complete and utter humiliation.Still, she wasn't a sore loser."Then let's get a divorce."Stanley paused. "Go get your marriage certificate."Wendy forced a thin smile and reached into her bag. "I already brought it with me."When

    Wendy returned to the girls' dorm and was greeted by a video call from Halsey.Halsey's bright, happy face appeared on the screen, her eyes mischievously dancing. "How did it go last night? Did you and Mr. Hawk, you know..."She wiggled her eyebrows, her expression full of playful insinuation.Wendy chuckled, trying to keep the mood light. "Why aren't you back yet?""I didn't want to interrupt you two. The last thing I wanna do is be a third wheel."With that, Halsey continued, "Mr. Hawk handled Luna really well this time. I honestly think he has feelings for you. You guys consummated your marriage and are officially husband and wife now. I hope things go well for you both, and that you can have a happy life together."Wendy wasn't sure how to respond. She popped a candy into her mouth, letting the sweetness spread across her tongue. After a moment, she smiled and said, "I appreciate that, Halsey. Come back soon, alright?""I'll be back tonight.""Okay."Wendy ended the call

    Jessica didn't want Wendy here.Wendy turned to look at Stanley.Still holding Jessica's hand, he slowly lifted his gaze to meet hers.Their eyes locked.Before Stanley could speak, Wendy shifted her gaze and briefly glanced at Jessica before offering a small, polite smile. "I'm glad you're okay. I'll leave now."She turned and walked away.But she didn't leave immediately. She stood outside the door, listening to the conversation inside.Jessica's voice was filled with sorrow as she accused Stanley, "Stanley, tell me. Did you sleep with Wendy?"Stanley looked at the door for a moment before his eyes settled back on Jessica's pale face. "Jessica, I'm sorry."He admitted it.Jessica bit her lip. "Stanley, why? You told me you and Wendy were over!"Stanley's expression darkened. Yes, he had told Jessica that he and Wendy were finished, but he couldn't stop himself from seeking out Wendy. "Stanley, you've forgotten my warning. I told you not to touch Wendy, not to sleep with

    Stanley glanced at Wendy before nodding. "Alright."-The two of them arrived at the hospital and entered the VIP ward, where they found Jessica.Jessica lay in bed, her face pale. She was still unconscious, her breathing assisted by a ventilator. Though her right wrist was wrapped in thick bandages, blood could be seen seeping through.Lilian rushed toward Stanley as soon as she saw him. "Mr. Hawk, you're here!"But her movement froze when she noticed Wendy standing behind him. Her expression shifted instantly. "Why did you bring her here?"Wendy gazed at her mother—the one who birthed her—with cold, steady eyes.Lilian's voice grew sharper with anger. "How dare you show your face here, Wendy! Last night, Jessica had heart problems and needed Mr. Hawk by her side. You knew that, but you wouldn't let go of him! Look at what happened—Jessica cut her wrist! Are you happy now that you got what you wanted? You're the one who pushed Jessica to kill herself! Get out of here!"In a

    Wendy reached out, her fingers trembling as she tried to touch Stanley's handsome face.But before she could, his hand shot out and grabbed hers. Stanley blinked sleepily, his eyes still heavy with the remnants of sleep. He gently placed her hand on his lips, kissing it softly before turning to look at her. "Good morning."His voice was low and husky, the kind of voice that rumbled in his chest when he first woke up. He gazed at her with his dark eyes, a warmth in his expression.Wendy's small face flushed a soft pink. "It's getting late. We should get up."Stanley pulled her soft body back into his arms. "Just a little longer," he murmured, still wanting to sleep.But Wendy pushed herself upright. "No, we can't. This is a girls' dorm, and everyone will wake up soon. You have to leave."Stanley's narrow eyes twinkled mischievously, his handsome features showing amusement. "We spent the night together, and you want me to leave the moment you opened your eyes? I feel used."Wend

    But today was different. No matter how long she waited, Stanley didn't come.Jessica, starting to panic, kept calling Stanley over and over—but all she heard on the other end was the cold, mechanical voice of the automated system. "Sorry, the number you are trying to reach is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."Stanley wasn't answering her calls.Bang!In a burst of frustration, Jessica slammed her phone against the wall, her delicate face twisted in anger."Jessica, don't get upset. Your heart can't stand it," Lilian said, trying to calm her down.Jessica shoved Lilian away. "How can I not be upset? Luna is useless! I thought her little pregnancy trick would work—that we could set up a situation where her baby would die at Wendy's hands, and then Wendy would be ruined for good. But she's such an idiot! Now Stanley knows that the woman from that night was Wendy. He's probably with her right now!" Jessica was terrified that Stanley would discover the truth abou

    Wendy's delicate body slid down toward the floor, but thankfully, Stanley's strong arm was there to catch her, holding her soft waist.She felt like she was going to melt under his fiery kiss.Stanley reached down to undo her buttons, his voice deep and husky as he asked, "Do you have a condom?"Wendy shook her head. No, she didn't."I'll have Zayn bring one over," he said, about to grab his phone.Wendy quickly stopped him. He thought it was a normal request to have his secretary deliver a condom, but she felt that after this, she would never be able to face Zayn again."Don't…" Stanley's lips trailed down to her soft neck, kissing lower. "Don't what?"His short hair brushed against her and poked her tender jaw, making her feel both painful and ticklish. She threaded her small hands through his hair, trying to push him away. "Stanley, don't."Her mind was a mess. She hadn't planned to be intimate with him again. Everything today felt so chaotic.Stanley kissed her again. "I

    Wendy's delicate back was pushed against the cold, white tiles of the bathroom wall. Warm water poured over her head, soaking her instantly. She raised her hands to push against the man in front of her. "What are you doing?"The water hit Stanley's handsome face, trickling down his sharp, striking features. It ran from his pronounced Adam's apple, down his muscular collarbone, and further still…It was like a painting of a man bathing, a visual feast of pure beauty.Wendy's heart raced as a fire ignited in her chest. She felt like a frightened deer, not knowing where to look, overwhelmed and panicked.Stanley pressed her against the wall, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. "Why are you so shy? Haven't you seen every part of me before?"Wendy hadn't expected him to pull her in like this. That night, he had been drugged, lost in a daze, but now he was fully awake.She had never been this close to him while he was sober, much less bathed with him before."Stanley, let me

    Wendy never expected Stanley to come back. After hearing how demanding Jessica had been on the phone, practically ordering him to come over, she thought he would go for sure. Jessica was his sweetheart, the one he always ran to. Even when he was drugged, just one call from Jessica could pull him away. This was the first time he hadn't gone.Wendy wondered just how furious Jessica would be tonight.Stanley looked at her. "What were you thinking just now?"He had stood behind her, watching her with her head lowered so quietly. He couldn't tell what was on her mind. Suddenly, he remembered the girl he had met in the cave years ago. She had been just as quiet, just as isolated. It made him want to cherish and protect her.Stanley didn't know why, but something about Wendy reminded him of that girl from the past.Wendy didn't want to answer. "I wasn't thinking about anything."Stanley didn't press her. He glanced down at his wet shirt and trousers. When he had turned earlier, th
