Chapter 244

Penulis: Glazed Snow
Jessica was so furious that she dug her nails deep into her palms, but she barely felt the pain as the fury coursed through her.

Lilian's face was as dark as a storm cloud. She glanced at Luna, still kneeling before her. "Is this all you've got? If you can't even deal with Wendy, then you have no use here."

Luna panicked, her voice shaky. "I can handle it. I've come up with a new plan to deal with her!"

Lilian snorted coldly. "We'll see how you perform. Now, get out of here."

Luna hurriedly scrambled to her feet and fled.

"Mom, why did you let her go?" Jessica demanded, frustration evident in her voice.

Lilian gave a strange, almost wicked smile. "Mr. Hawk still doesn't know the woman from that night was Wendy. We can take advantage of the fact that he hasn't figured it out yet and use Luna to handle Wendy. All we need to do is sit back and let the chaos unfold before we reap the benefits."

Jessica took a deep breath, calming herself. Lilian was right. Stanley still had no idea

  • The Heartbreak Prescription   Chapter 245

    It was her!It was Wendy!Yet, he had mistaken her for someone else.As Stanley recalled the way he had treated Wendy—his coldness, his humiliating words—he could have slapped himself. That day in the nurse's office, he had pinned her down on the bed, and she had tearfully told him how much she hated him. She was so innocent, so vulnerable.He cursed at himself over and over.His muscles tensed as the anger built inside him. He scowled, his handsome face twisted in frustration—but soon, a small smile curved on his lips.-Cecelia had a good night's sleep after she got back to the apartment. The next day, Wendy and Halsey took her out shopping.The three of them walked through the mall, entering a boutique that sold accessories. Wendy's eyes lit up when she saw a collection of cute hairpins.The pins were in candy-colored shades, with designs of pink strawberries, green watermelons, and yellow lemons…all very playful and vibrant."Wendy, these hairpins are perfect for you! W

    Luna's face was flushed with a playful shyness. "Mr. Hawk, tomorrow is my birthday, and I'm planning to have a party. Would you consider coming to celebrate with me?"Luna was now a hotshot celebrity, her every move followed by the media and fans. If Stanley, the powerful business tycoon and the wealthiest man in Hovendale, attended her birthday party, it would secure her fame and fortune for a lifetime.Wendy's clear eyes settled on Stanley, who simply nodded in response. "Alright."He had agreed to attend Luna's party.Luna's heart soared with joy. "Thank you, Mr. Hawk!""Since you're pregnant, you should take good care of yourself. You should go home and rest," Stanley said, his words of concern making Luna even happier. She placed her hand gently over her abdomen."I'll head home, then. Don't worry! I'll take good care of our baby. I'll see you tomorrow."Luna shot a challenging glance at Wendy before walking away, her assistant following behind, a look of triumph on her fac

    What did he just say?Wendy's eyes widened in shock. He had gotten Luna pregnant, and was still saying things like that to her?Shame and fury swelled inside her, and she spat at him, "You're despicable!"Stanley looked down at her with those sharp, striking eyes. Wendy's long, silky black hair was messily spread out on the couch, her delicate face framed by eyes that were as clear as day, staring at him with a mix of anger and hurt. The sight was almost identical to the one in his dreams.At that moment, all his memories came rushing back.Stanley's lips curled into a faint smile. "Why call me that? What exactly makes me despicable? Tell me."Though she had sharp words, Wendy was still awkward when it came to insults. Her voice, soft and weak, could only manage a few words like "annoying" or "despicable"—it was almost childlike.Wendy glared at him. "What do you want from me? If you ever try to find me again, I'll tell Luna. She's carrying your child, and she can't handle stres

    "Wendy, are you okay? What did Mr. Hawk bring you here for?"Halsey and Cecelia quickly grabbed Wendy as she stood there, trying to process everything.Wendy furrowed her brows, still confused about what Stanley was doing. He had brought her to Imperial Garden and then said "sorry" twice—it was very out of character for him. But then she remembered Luna's pregnancy, and her frustration toward Stanley faded. She didn't want to waste any more time on him. "Let's just go," she said, her voice flat."Alright," Halsey and Cecelia agreed.The three of them left, and Stanley remained on the couch, his expression darkening as he masked the lust that flickered in his eyes.Just then, Zayn entered and reported in a low voice, "Mr. Hawk, I've found something."Stanley looked up. "Go on.""It turns out Luna has a boyfriend in the countryside. He loves her very much, and he works the dirtiest and hardest jobs on a construction site to earn money so she can go to college. They've been sle

    Luna's eyes shone with pride—she couldn't wait to flaunt her happiness in front of Wendy.Wendy's gaze remained cold, and she didn't respond.Luna placed her hand on her small belly, a smug smile curling her lips. "Wendy, you're not jealous of me, are you? Some people have to take the morning-after pill after a night and even faint from the allergies, while I get pregnant and am showered with love. Life sure isn't fair, is it?""Hey!" Halsey and Cecelia both moved as if to say something, but Wendy raised a hand to stop them."Let's go," she said softly, her voice level.With that, Wendy turned on her heel and walked away.Halsey and Cecelia quickly followed. "Wendy, why didn't you let us put her in her place?"Wendy gave a bitter, almost self-deprecating smile. "Why bother? She's just telling the truth."She took the morning-after pill and fainted from an allergic reaction. Meanwhile, Luna got pregnant and became a huge star.It was painfully obvious who Stanley loved and didn

    Luna couldn't wait any longer. She texted Stanley, [Mr. Hawk, have you arrived?]Stanley's eyes darkened, turning as deep and cold as an abyss. He replied with one simple word. [Yes.]-At the birthday party, Luna's heart soared when she saw his reply. Stanley was here!What a shame that Wendy wasn't around to see this. Luna wanted Wendy to witness this moment so badly!Luna grinned widely and turned to the crowd. "Everyone, the birthday party can officially begin! The special guest I've been waiting for has arrived.""Luna, who's this special guest?""Ms. Fisher, stop teasing us! Please bring out this VIP guest. We can't wait to see!"Luna smiled mischievously. "Alright, let's welcome him now!"The doors to the banquet hall swung open, and all eyes turned toward them.Then, someone walked in.Luna eagerly rushed forward, ready to greet the guest. "Mr…."But before she could say "Mr. Hawk", she froze in her tracks.The person who entered wasn't Stanley. It was her boyfrien

    Luna had invited several media reporters to her birthday party. She was at the height of her popularity, so all the media had shown up, paying her the respect she deserved. She had planned to use this moment to elevate herself even further—but then Danny showed up, bringing shocking news that flipped everything upside down. The room erupted as the reporters immediately began snapping photos, their cameras clicking frantically. "Ms. Fisher, so you really do have a boyfriend?" "Wait, so you only got into college because your boyfriend supported you by working construction?" "Was your innocent, pure image just a lie to deceive your fans and the public?" Luna had not anticipated such a sudden turn of events, and the situation quickly spiraled out of control. Panicking, she yelled, "No photos! Stop taking photos!" It was then that she unintentionally looked up to the second floor. Standing by the ornate balcony railing was a tall, dignified figure—Stanley Hawk. Stanle

    "So many resources have been poured into you recently. Did you land yourself a sugar daddy?" The reporters' questions grew sharper, their words cutting through the air. Luna's face turned pale as she glanced at the fans surrounding her. The admiration they once held for her quickly vanished. One by one, they began to shout insults. "We were blind!" "We thought we were supporting an innocent girl, but turns out she's just a cheap woman!" "We're leaving!" Without a second glance, the fans turned their backs on her, walking away. Luna realized it was over. She had hoped her birthday party would launch her to new heights, but instead, it had completely destroyed her. One moment she was on top of the world, the next she had fallen hard, plummeting into the depths of despair. What could she do now? Luna lifted her eyes to the man standing on the second floor. Stanley, standing tall, looked down on her from above, his narrow eyes as cold and deep as a frozen lake.

    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
