Chapter 260

Author: Glazed Snow
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 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

    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

    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

    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

    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.

    One day, Wendy discovered that her husband Stanley was having an affair.He had been seeing a college student.It was Stanley's birthday. Wendy had prepared a table full of dishes early in the day. Just then, she heard a notification from his phone.Ding!He had left his phone at home. Wendy switched it on and saw a text from the college student.[I hurt myself when I was carrying the cake. It hurts so much.]Attached was a selfie—not of the sender's face, but of her legs. The girl in the photo wore pulled-up white socks, black leather shoes, and a blue-and-white skirt that had been pushed up to reveal her long, slender legs. Her pale knees were visibly reddened from the bump. The youthful, vibrant image of her body paired with coquettish words exuded a forbidden allure.People often say successful businessmen like Stanley favored this type of woman when choosing mistresses.Wendy clutched the phone tightly, her fingers turning white from the pressure.Ding!Another text ca

    Wendy was also staring at him. Her tone was light but firm as she repeated, "Let's get a divorce, Stanley. Do you like your birthday gift?"Stanley didn't bat an eyelid. "You're asking for a divorce just because I didn't celebrate my birthday with you?""Jessica has returned, hasn't she?" At the mention of Jessica, Stanley's thin lips curled into a faint, mocking smile. He took a step forward, closing the distance between them. "Are you bothered by Jessica?"Stanley, known as the youngest business prodigy alive, exuded an aura of power, wealth, and status. As he approached, Wendy instinctively stepped back, her slender back pressing against the cold wall.Her vision went dark as Stanley leaned in. He propped one hand against the wall beside her, trapping her between his firm chest and the wall.Looking down at her with his deep, striking eyes, Stanley sneered."Everyone in Hovendale knows Jessica was the one I intended to marry. Weren't you aware when you schemed to replace her

    Stanley's thin lips curved into a frosty arc. "Wendy, get back here immediately!"Wendy chuckled. "You expect me to come back just because you said so? We're divorced, Stanley. I'm not going to continue indulging you!"Stanley clenched his jaw. "I'll give you a chance to rewrite the reason for divorce!"Wendy's tone grew more playful. "Did I write anything wrong? Stanley, it's been six months since you woke up, hasn't it? Yet, in these six months, you haven't even held my hand. You were in a coma for three years, and although you're physically healthy now, I have legitimate reasons to believe you've developed functional problems. You're not potent anymore! Better hurry to find an experienced naturopath. As our parting gift, I wish you an early recovery of your manhood!"Stanley was rendered speechless. The veins on his forehead were visibly twitching.This woman was out of control."Wendy, I'll make you regret this! You'll know what I'm capable of sooner or later!""Sorry, but

    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
