Chapter 67

Aвтор: Glazed Snow
Jessica arrived.

Stanley froze instantly.

The haze of desire that had clouded his judgment earlier seemed to evaporate at that moment. He quickly averted his eyes, a wave of shame washing over him.

What was he doing? He'd been on the verge of crossing a line with Wendy.

Wendy, feeling the sudden loosening of his grip, found herself freed.

"Stay here. Don't go out," Stanley said, his voice taut.

He turned and stormed off, likely to look for Jessica.

Just moments ago, he had been consumed by lust, but now, with the mention of Jessica's name, he pulled away from her without a second thought. It was as if Wendy no longer mattered.

Wendy's face, which had been flushed with embarrassment, slowly regained its natural color. A bitter smile tugged at her lips. How ironic—she, the legitimate wife, felt like the mistress, as though she were having an affair with Stanley while Jessica was the real wife.

What would he do with Jessica now? No doubt, he'd be finishing what he couldn't wi

    Since she was young, Jessica had dedicated herself to dance and spent large sums each month on skincare to keep her complexion flawless and smooth. Her figure, graceful and slender, was accentuated by the tight fit of the strapless mini dress she wore, showing off her curves.Stanley sat on the sofa, his eyes fixated on her. As she toyed with his attraction, he couldn't help but glance at her body, admiring her elegant shape.Jessica had always been one of the most beautiful women in Hovendale, and she obviously possessed something special to have caught Stanley's eye.Noticing his gaze, Jessica raised an eyebrow with a confident smirk, clearly aware of the effect she was having on him. She stepped closer, her high heels clicking on the floor, and boldly climbed onto his lap, straddling him.Her delicate fingers playfully traced the muscles of his chest. "Stanley, you're so hard."She raised an eyebrow, her tone teasing. "With you so stiff, how could it not be a big surprise that

    The master bedroom was empty, with no sign of Wendy left behind.Just then, there was a knock at the door. Zayn appeared at the doorway. "Mr. Hawk, I saw Mrs. Hawk on my way here. She's already left."She left? Didn't I tell her to wait here?"I've sent someone to find the antidote for the aphrodisiac," Zayn added.Stanley barely moved his lips. "No need."He stepped into the bathroom, turning on the cold shower. The aphrodisiac in the room had been extinguished by Wendy, leaving only a trace amount that Stanley had inhaled. The effect wasn't too strong, and he knew he could overcome it with his willpower.He stood under the cold water, letting it pour down his body. The icy droplets splashed against his toned muscles, each drop glistening before breaking apart—his chiseled physique enough to make anyone stare.Stanley kept his eyes down, but Wendy's delicate face and soft, fragile hands kept appearing in his mind. Her touch was comforting, and it made him want more.His rest

    Benny was intrigued. "What kind of competition?"Wendy knew Benny was a big fan of mobile games. "Let's play a round of mobile games, and we'll see who wins and who loses.""What?" Benny burst out laughing. "You want to challenge me in a round of mobile games? I'm a champion, Wendy! Do you really think I'll lose to someone like you?"Wendy smirked. "We'll find out soon enough."Benny pulled out his phone. "Alright, let's do this! Today, I'll show you how it's done."Wendy pulled out her phone as well, and they both started the game.In the game, Benny spun his character in midair, brandishing a large sword. "Wendy, prepare to die!"But in the next second, the sound of "Game Over" echoed through the room.The game had ended.Benny shot up from his seat, disbelief written all over his face. Just as he was showing off with his spin, Wendy had dropped down from above and, with a glowing axe, sliced through him.He was defeated.Benny found it hard to believe. He was a seasoned p

    Benny sucked in a sharp breath, his face turning pale. What was this ugly duckling who came from the countryside saying? She wanted to teach him a lesson on behalf of Stanley? Was this a sick joke?In the entire town of Hovendale, the only person who could stand up to him, the local tyrant, was Stanley!Wendy tugged Cecelia's hand. "Let's go, Cecelia."As they moved toward the door, Stanley reached out and grabbed her delicate hand.His long, sharp fingers wrapped around her soft hand, and the simple touch sent an electric shiver up both of their spines. Their memories flashed back to that night at Saville Villa, when he had pinned her to the wall...Wendy quickly yanked her hand away.Stanley studied her small, exquisite face. His Adam's apple shifted slightly as he casually said, "Wendy, this won't happen again."Wendy stared at him coldly. "Handle things with Grandma as soon as you can. I'm ready to go to the courthouse for the divorce anytime. I've been wanting to give Jes

    Benny couldn't beat Wendy in the game, so he turned to Stanley to vent his frustration.Stanley raised an eyebrow, his expression indifferent. "She's offline already."Wendy's avatar had gone dark—she was no longer online.Benny sighed, feeling disappointed. "Stanley, next time, you have to play a game with Wendy."Stanley wasn't opposed to the idea. He looked at Benny and simply said, "Bye."Just then, Benny suddenly remembered something. "Stanley, have you added that genius junior of yours?"Stanley raised an eyebrow. "Are you that interested in her?""Of course! She's my goddess!" Benny replied eagerly."I'm in a group chat with her," Stanley said.Benny's eyes lit up. "Really? Stanley, hurry up and add me to the group. I have to add my goddess!"Stanley, giving in to Benny's constant pleading, took out his phone and added him to the group.When Benny saw W in the chat, his heart raced. His goddess! He never should've played with that country bumpkin Wendy—what a waste

    Wendy returned to the Hawk family estate, and as soon as she stepped into the living room, her eyes landed on someone—someone she would never forget: George.Years ago, when Lilian sent her away to the countryside, it was to George's house. George had been her foster father. Now, Glinda and George were seated on the plush sofa in the living room. Glinda greeted George warmly. "Wendy grew up in the countryside. Those years would've been so tough without you. You raised Wendy so well. Now she's here, an esteemed lady in the Hawk family."George's left eye was blind, leaving him with a single eye. He was a broad-shouldered man with a rough appearance, someone who had once been known for his drinking and violent behavior toward his wife.Sitting on the expensive sofa now, his lone eye roamed around the luxurious decor of the Hawk family mansion, his gaze lingering greedily on the antique paintings scattered around. Yet, in front of Glinda, he played the humble, simple man. "Mrs. G

    George chuckled awkwardly. "Mr. Hawk, hello. I never expected Wendy to marry so well. Seeing you two together, so perfectly matched, I can rest easy now. I'll be on my way, and I won't disturb you any longer."Glinda quickly tried to convince him to stay. "Stay for dinner, George. You've come all this way, and I've already asked the staff to prepare the meal. It'll be a nice family gathering tonight."Stanley looked at George, his voice calm and measured. "Stay for dinner."Both Stanley and Glinda invited him to stay.George smiled, "Well, since you insist, I'd be happy to oblige—"But Wendy's cold voice cut through, stopping him. "He won't stay for dinner."George froze, his gaze snapping to Wendy.Wendy met his stare, her voice unwavering. "You just got out of prison. Don't come back to the Hawk family estate again."The moment her words hit the air, the atmosphere shifted—tense and uncomfortable.Glinda paused, her eyes wide in surprise as she looked at George. "Wait, you'v

    Stanley was so generous that George paused for a moment before replying, "Mr. Hawk, just give whatever you think is appropriate."Stanley raised an eyebrow. "How about a million?"A million?George's eyes lit up. He hadn't expected Stanley to casually offer that much."That will be enough."Stanley took out a check and handed it to George.George quickly counted the zeros. It really was a million! "Thank you, Mr. Hawk. I'll be on my way now."With the check in hand, George walked off, clearly pleased.-Stanley returned to the bedroom, where Wendy was already waiting for him.Wendy glanced at him and asked, "What did George talk to you about?"Stanley casually undid a button on his black shirt, revealing his well-defined collarbone, and smirked. "What do you think he could have said?"Wendy furrowed her brow. "I'm asking seriously. I'm not joking."Stanley placed his expensive steel watch on the dresser. Noticing her tense, serious expression, he raised an eyebrow. "He did

    Wendy said seriously, "As medical practitioners, we must be meticulous. A tiny mistake can lead to disastrous consequences."At that moment, Cyril stood while Wendy sat. Despite the height difference between them, her slender, graceful back was perfectly straight. Her intelligent, clear eyes were full of earnestness as she gave Cyril a lesson, almost as though she were the teacher and he the student.Cyril, speechless, was taken aback. Was she teaching him? Did she really think she was his teacher? He had only one teacher, and that was Dr. Ceylan!Cyril couldn't believe what was happening. He was about to reprimand Wendy, but before he could say anything, she spoke up again. "Alright, Cyril, you can go now."Cyril was stunned. She was calling him by his first name again.The interaction left him speechless. He simply turned and walked away.-Back in the office, Cyril was fuming. There was no way he could have been wrong!He immediately grabbed the "Classic of Herbal Medic

    Stanley's deep voice rang out. "Mr. Suarez, are you saying that the genius freshman is attending the Summit Academic Forum?"What?The phrase "genius freshman" struck Jessica like a lightning bolt, instantly capturing her attention. Was the mysterious and aloof genius freshman about to make an appearance?"She's actually been in Hovendale this whole time," Dave replied. "Unfortunately, you've never met her. She'll be attending the Summit Academic Forum, so you two will finally get to meet. Please make sure to find some time to attend the event."Stanley nodded. "Alright."After they hung up, Jessica was in shock. "Stanley, the genius freshman has been in Hovendale all this time? Who is she?"Hovendale's circle wasn't that large, and she had never heard of this brilliant young woman before.Jessica felt uneasy about the existence of this genius freshman. Stanley, equally unaware, didn't know who she was either. Thinking about the freshman's mysterious, cool demeanor, Stanley

    Before Zayn could continue, Stanley interrupted in a low voice, "We're divorced. There's no need to update me on her situation."Zayn paused for a moment, then nodded respectfully. "Understood." He turned and left the room.At that moment, Jessica walked out. She had overheard everything Stanley had said. A smile curled on her lips as she approached him. She knew Stanley's decisive nature. Once he had divorced Wendy, he wanted nothing more to do with her.Now, his heart and mind were entirely focused on Jessica. She was his one true love.Jessica stepped closer and wrapped her arms around Stanley's waist from behind.Stanley didn't need to look to know it was her. His gaze shifted from the window, and he lowered his eyes to the small hands that had latched onto his waist.Jessica's right wrist had mostly healed, but there was still a scar, a reminder of the injury that ruined its beauty.As a dancer, she was someone who valued her appearance deeply.Stanley gently took her ri

    After the divorce, Stanley and Wendy never contacted each other again. This was the first time he had heard any news about her.It turned out she had fallen seriously ill.Jessica immediately grinned, her red lips curling with a mix of pride, pity, and mockery. "I never would have guessed that Wendy was so deeply in love with Stanley."Trish joined in, mocking Wendy as well. "With her background, she'll never find another man like Mr. Hawk. It's honestly a little sad when you think about it."Jessica tilted her head, gazing at Stanley with a playful pout. "Stanley, now that your ex-wife's sick, don't you think you should give her a call and comfort her?"Stanley remained expressionless, his handsome face still as composed as ever. He looked at Jessica. "Sure. I'll call her right now."He made a move to reach for his phone.Jessica's expression instantly changed. "You wouldn't dare!"Stanley smirked. "Then why did you suggest it?"He was just teasing her—he had no intention of

    Losing Stanley hurt more than Wendy had ever expected.She couldn't even explain what it was about him that made her feel this way. He was never kind to her at all. And yet, everyone has that one person in their life they love—someone who might not deserve it, but still holds a place in your heart. She loved Stanley. Her fingers tightly gripped the crystal pendant he had given her, the one she knew she would never let go of. But deep down, she understood—she had lost him. She had lost her Big Brother.At that very moment, Stanley sat in his Rolls Royce Phantom, parked by the side of the road. Through the gleaming windshield, he watched Wendy huddled in on herself, crouched on the street, sobbing uncontrollably.A red haze slowly crept into his dark eyes, and his grip on the steering wheel tightened. Something stung his heart, a pain that wasn't sharp but spread in waves, dense and suffocating.Then his phone rang. It was Jessica."Stanley, have you divorced Wendy?" she asked

    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
