Chapter 233

Author: Glazed Snow
Stanley was clearly aroused. The corners of his narrow eyes had reddened with the heat of desire.

Listening to Wendy's words, he froze and stared at her.

Wendy casually gestured toward the door. "Mr. Hawk, now you'll have to work your magic and get Luna back."

Stanley, ever sharp, immediately understood. Wendy wasn't genuinely trying to seduce him—she was putting on a show for Luna.

The desire in his eyes instantly faded, replaced by a cold clarity. He fixed Wendy with a frosty gaze. "Get off me, now."

Wendy didn't waste any time and immediately complied.

Stanley stood, his tall, lean figure casting a long shadow by the floor-to-ceiling windows. This damned woman!

"Spit it out. What do you want from me?"

Wendy took a steadying breath. "Mr. Hawk, Cecelia didn't cut Luna's wires. She's been framed. I hope you'll show mercy and let her go."

Cecelia? Her best friend?

Stanley hadn't been paying attention to Luna's fall or any of the drama surrounding it, so he didn't know it was t

    Wendy could turn to Nathan for help.-Wendy arrived at Nathan's villa and was surprised to find his assistant packing up his things."Nathan, what's going on?" Wendy asked, confused.Nathan flashed a smile. "My dad just called. There's been an issue with one of the overseas companies, and I need to fly back."In recent years, the Lowes had shifted their business abroad, and their assets were all over the world. This time, Nathan had simply returned for a brief vacation. But Nathan's sudden departure, especially at this moment, made Wendy wonder if it had something to do with Stanley.Could Stanley have secretly orchestrated something to get Nathan to leave?"Did you need something?" Nathan asked, his voice soft.Wendy shook her head. "No, nothing.""Wendy," he said, his eyes soft with affection, "do you want me to stay?"Wendy knew this was Nathan's last attempt to test her feelings. If she said yes, he would stay."I'm not worth it. You'll meet someone better than me som

    In the understatedly luxurious business conference room, Stanley stood tall in a custom-made black suit, exuding both handsomeness and an air of nobility. He was leading the senior executives of Hawk Group as they met with Marc Dubois, the CEO of the Frontellian luxury brand, LVMA."Mrs. Hawk, Mr. Hawk's Frontellian is impeccable! He speaks over twenty languages fluently, and he never needs a translator," the receptionist told Wendy as she prepared a cup of coffee for her.Wendy smiled lightly. "Thank you.""You're welcome. I'll leave you to it now," the receptionist said with a bow before walking away."Alright."Once the receptionist had left, Wendy's sharp eyes once again drifted toward the floor-to-ceiling windows, focusing on Stanley inside.Stanley stood alongside Marc, effortlessly conversing in flawless Frontellian. It was a world of high stakes and prestige—the top-tier business summit, the kind of glamorous, intoxicating atmosphere Wendy could feel even from across the

    Stanley's Adam's apple rolled as he stared at Wendy. She had the face of an angel—unearthly, almost as if she didn't belong in this world. But then she sent him that kind of GIF, especially when he was busy. Damn it. Her other side was definitely a little devil.She seemed to know everything, to be good at everything.Marc chuckled. "Mrs. Hawk looks so young. She must be clingy. Mr. Hawk, can you handle it?"Having a cute little wife was one thing, but it was up to the man to see if he could handle her.Stanley watched Wendy through the glass. He wasn't sure. He and Wendy hadn't really taken things that far yet, and he honestly didn't know if he could handle her.Ding!Another message from Wendy popped up.Stanley opened it. [Mr. Hawk, are you up for this? If not, I'll leave.]Damn it!Stanley cursed silently in his mind. How was he supposed to work with her acting like this?Meanwhile, outside, Wendy felt a small victory as she watched him struggle. She knew Stanley wouldn

    What was he talking about?Wendy could feel it—the cold, distant act was gone. The wicked, lustful Stanley was back.She had wanted to peel back his mask before. But now that it had been pulled away, she realized she didn't want it as much as she thought.-The Rolls-Royce Phantom sped smoothly down the road. Wendy glanced at the man beside her. "Did you have someone stop me from seeing Cecelia?"Stanley's large hand, with defined knuckles, rested casually on the steering wheel. He gave a half-hearted hum, barely acknowledging the question.He admitted it."Did Nathan leave because of you, too?"Stanley signaled, turning the wheel effortlessly with his strong wrist, his expensive watch catching the light as he made the turn. His deep voice rumbled as he said, "Nathan should have arrived by now. What do you think he's doing right now?"Wendy said nothing, waiting for him to elaborate.Stanley handed her a photo.Wendy took it and stared at the image. There, she saw Nathan w

    Stanley stopped the car. "The contraception section is right up ahead. You go get it."He was making her go buy condoms for him.If it weren't for Cecelia still being in his grasp, Wendy would've told him to get lost.This was too much!Wendy refused to move. Stanley stared at her small, flawless face. A delicate flush had spread across her cheeks, even creeping down to her soft, pale earlobes. It was pure, adorable—enough to make him want to tease her a little more."What are you standing there for? Don't you want your friend out?" It was a threat.Fine. Wendy accepted it. She turned on her heel and headed toward the contraception aisle.As soon as she stepped in, two couples turned to look at her, their gazes sharp and filled with curiosity.Wendy wanted to disappear into the ground.She glanced back to see Stanley standing in the hallway, his long legs stretching across the space as he watched her with an amused smirk, clearly enjoying her discomfort.Wendy bit her pin

    Wendy's last words, "You didn't wear one that night," faded quietly, and Stanley didn't quite catch them.All he heard was the part about her not wanting to take the morning-after pill anymore.His mind immediately flashed back to that time when she had fainted from an allergic reaction to the pill because of Nathan. A smirk tugged at his lips, cold and mocking. "If you can take the morning-after pill for another man, why can't you do the same for me?"What was he talking about?When had she ever taken the morning-after pill for another man?In the past, he had misunderstood her, thinking she had been with many men, and she had endured it all. But that night, he knew it was her first time. And still, he said this to her.Wendy clenched her fist and punched him.She was still angry, still hated him.Stanley didn't move to avoid the hit. After she struck him, he gently took her little fist, turning it into a soft grip as he pulled her along."Wait, I haven't bought the condoms y

    Wendy's small face was flushed with a deep crimson as she bit his tongue.The sudden sharp pain made Stanley pull back, and Wendy took deep, desperate breaths. Her small, delicate eyelashes fluttered, trembling with a soft, frantic vulnerability that was almost too endearing.Stanley reached out and grasped her chin, forcing her to tilt her head back and meet his gaze."Wendy," he growled, his voice hoarse, "you're begging me now. If you bite me again, you can forget about seeing your friend. Understand?"His tone was low, and threatening, his position of power clear as he loomed over her.Wendy met his eyes, hesitating for a moment before reluctantly agreeing. "I understand."Stanley's hand reached for the condom on the passenger seat.Just then, Wendy pushed him back, taking control of the situation. "Why should it only be you undressing me? I want to undress you, too."She reached for his suit jacket buttons with urgency.Her movements were too quick, and when she couldn't

    It was clear that Wendy had done something to turn the tables and save Cecelia.Wendy hadn't yet ended the call when Halsey's voice came through, already hearing Stanley's deep tone in the background. "Wendy, where are you and Mr. Hawk right now?""We—""I can see Mr. Hawk's car!"Suddenly, there was a sharp knocking sound on the car window—Halsey was already outside, knocking on the glass.Wendy hadn't expected Halsey to be so close. Though the tinted windows of the expensive black car blocked the view from outside, Halsey's sudden appearance startled Wendy. She was still sitting in Stanley's lap, tangled up with him in an intimate embrace.Just then, Stanley's deep voice, gravelly and smooth, came through. "Wendy."He called her name.Wendy glanced at him. "What's wrong?""Let go.""What?"Stanley's gaze dropped, and his eyes darkened as he noticed her legs wrapped tightly around his waist. Startled from earlier, she had instinctively clung to him.Stanley swallowed hard.

    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. "Yeah?""Mrs. Garner asked me
