Chapter 29

Author: Glazed Snow
"Ahhh!"

Jessica's scream made Stanley slam the brakes, bringing the Rolls-Royce to a sudden halt.

Jessica gasped for breath, terrified out of her wits. "Stanley, why were you driving so fast?"

Stanley's face remained cold and dark. He glanced up, noticing that the Lamborghini, which had nearly caught up with them, had already zoomed past while he was stopping.

Stanley pressed his lips together. "Are you hurt?"

Jessica shook her head. "I'm fine."

She then muttered, "I can't believe Wendy's caught Nathan's eye. Did you see how she was dancing in the club? I mean, she grew up in the countryside, dropped out of school at 16, and learned all these tricks to seduce men. She's completely lost herself—so shameless, so self-destructive!"

Stanley's gaze grew cold as the image of Wendy's soft, seductive movements in the club flashed through his mind. Jessica wasn't wrong—Wendy had indeed learned all those seductive techniques. Even Nathan, who was usually so hard to impress, had been capti

  • The Heartbreak Prescription   Chapter 902

    It had been a long time since Shaun and Halsey had been together. At his age, full of energy and desire, it was hard not to feel tempted after being that close to her again.Ding!His phone buzzed.Shaun pulled it from his pocket and opened Instagram. A friend request had come in.The handle was "cute_potato".A faint smirk tugged at Shaun's lips. When did Halsey change her handle to that? Was she trying to be cute?Well… She was pretty cute.Shaun accepted the request.On the other end, Geneva nearly jumped with excitement. "He accepted! Now we're following each other on Instagram!"Shaun had approved Geneva's request and followed her back.Halsey forced a small smile. "Congrats.""I'm going to message him now," Geneva announced.She sent him a DM. [I'm into you.]Geneva wasn't the shy type. Young, bold, and straightforward, she just went for it.Ding!Shaun saw the message. [I'm into you.]The heat he'd tried to cool off earlier came surging back. He typed out a reply

    Halsey had been standing by the door, but the moment Shaun's tall frame approached, his shadow instantly fell over her. She instinctively backed away, but she misjudged her step and nearly hit the wall. Shaun reached out and caught her by the waist, his hand easily wrapping around her. With a gentle tug, he pulled her straight into his arms.Their bodies suddenly pressed close.Halsey's lashes fluttered. "Mr. Lane…"Shaun looked down at her. "What's got you all flustered? Just because you're asking for my Instagram handle?"Right then and there, Halsey regretted ever agreeing to Geneva's request—this was definitely a mistake!"If you don't want to, you don't have to give it to me—"Before she could finish, Shaun gave her a firm pull, and she stumbled into his chest. His fresh, clean scent surrounded her instantly.Halsey quickly lifted her hands and pressed them against his chest. "Mr. Lane…"Shaun glanced at her hands. "Where do you think you're touching?"Halsey froze. She

    Ever since Halsey got pregnant, her morning sickness had been terrible. The sour bile burned her throat, and it stung so badly it brought tears to her eyes.Halsey turned on the faucet and splashed her face with cold water.Just then, Geneva appeared behind her. "Hi."Halsey straightened up. "Hey. Are you here to use the bathroom?"Geneva smiled. "Are you close with Maddy's brother?"The question caught Halsey off guard. She nodded. "Yeah, I know him."Geneva stepped closer, a mix of shyness and excitement in her voice. "Could do me a favor?"Halsey tilted her head. "What kind of favor? If I can help, I will."Geneva hesitated, then asked, "Could you help me get Maddy's brother's Instagram handle?"Geneva wanted Shaun's Instagram handle.The moment Halsey saw the look on Geneva's face—shy and hopeful—it all clicked. Geneva had a crush on Shaun.Honestly, it made sense. A man like Shaun—young, handsome, rich, and the CEO of a company—was exactly the kind of guy who'd attract

    Shaun couldn't believe that Madeline wanted to stick with the Halsey and ditch him. He paused from washing the dishes, wondering if he was even her real brother.Then, he glanced at Madeline. "What if I didn't do anything wrong? What if Halsey's the one who messed up?""No way! She's always right!" Madeline insisted. Shaun could only laugh dryly. He finally understood that Madeline was totally biased."Just hurry up and win Halsey back, or else!"With that, Madeline turned and went back to her room.Shaun looked down at the dish in his hand, completely speechless.Halsey stayed with Madeline for the rest of the day. While Madeline worked on a research diagram, Halsey focused on her fashion designs. She listened carefully to the sounds outside. After Shaun finished the dishes, he left—most likely for the office. He was incredibly busy these days.Later that afternoon, a few of Madeline's female classmates dropped by. They were all close friends from her research institute, st

    Madeline grinned at Halsey. "I knew it! You're the best."Halsey picked up her bowl. "Let's eat."The meal passed in an awkward, almost tense silence. When it was over, Halsey stood up. "I'll do the dishes."She hadn't helped cook, but at least she could handle the cleanup. Since she was staying here, she didn't want to feel completely useless.She reached out to grab the utensils, but Shaun caught her slender wrist before she could. "I'll do it."The sudden contact made Halsey freeze. His hand was warm, with a faint layer of calluses that pressed gently against her smooth skin as he held her wrist."You cooked, so let me do the dishes. I want to help out a little," Halsey insisted.Shaun looked at her. "Do you even know how to wash dishes?"After all, Halsey had grown up pampered and probably never touched a sink."No," she admitted, "but I can learn."Shaun gave her a faint smirk. "Why learn something like that? If you don't know how, just don't do it."Halsey's lashes

    Halsey froze, feeling awkward all of a sudden. She hadn't meant to bump into Shaun—she was actually trying to avoid him. Somehow, she ended up walking right into him instead.As she looked up at his striking face, memories from the night before hit her like a wave. He had held her down and kissed her…and called her "Chelsea."Halsey quickly pushed Shaun away, then took two steps back herself.Flustered, she stammered, "S-Sorry."Shaun noticed her flushed face and how uneasy she looked. He smirked a little and said with a teasing tone, "It's fine, really. No big deal. Why are you so nervous?"Halsey suddenly realized he was right. They had already broken up. While she was still all over the place, he had clearly moved on and was calm as ever. It was obvious he had gotten over it.She felt pathetic. She should be like Shaun, cool and composed. Besides, with Madeline around, there was no way they would completely avoid each other.Taking a breath, Halsey tried to pull herself toget
