Chapter 84

Author: Glazed Snow
But Stanley remembered when Jessica had just returned to the country. She had her eye on a Chanel handbag, and he had Zayn buy it for her. Zayn delivered the bag to Imperial Garden, where Wendy happened to see it.

Wendy's face lit up with joy as she admired the bag, her eyes crinkling in a smile.

"This bag is beautiful," she said.

She seemed to really like it.

Stanley replied, "She likes Chanel bags."

Nathan smirked, "Bags, huh? That's easy. Thanks for the tip."

At that moment, Benny walked in. "Stanley, Nathan, you guys are here!"

Nathan glanced at Benny. "Benny, aren't you supposed to be at the Crones' residence?"

"Yeah, I did. And I even ran into Wendy and her adoptive father. Stanley, Nathan, you wouldn't believe it—Wendy actually rejected her adoptive father! She didn't even recognize him as her father."

Benny recounted everything that had happened at the Crones' residence.

"Nathan, how could you still have feelings for Wendy? She doesn't deserve you. Now that you know

    Glinda didn't get the chance to take the photo because Wendy quickly put it back in the box. "Grandma, this is a photo from when I was a child. It's so ugly. I can't let you see it."Glinda smiled and withdrew her hand. "I don't think you could ever be ugly."Freddy added, "I completely agree."Wendy, hearing the warm reassurance from both Glinda and Freddy, lowered her head and took a sip of the chicken soup.Just then, the maid's voice broke the moment. "Mr. Hawk."Wendy looked up and saw Stanley had returned.Glinda smiled brightly. "Stanley, you're back?"Stanley took off his jacket and handed it to the maid before walking into the living room with long strides.Wendy, still holding her bowl, noticed something strange about the soup. It tasted odd, like some kind of herb had been added. "Grandma, did you put something in the chicken soup? It tastes strange."Glinda's eyes sparkled. "Wendy, you noticed? I had them add some herbs to help with fertility."Fertility?Wendy s

    "Stop the nonsense! Tonight, you personally bring 100 million to me, or your photo will be all over Hovendale tomorrow. I'll be waiting for you tonight!" George barked before ending the call abruptly.Wendy tightened her grip on her phone. Just then, Stanley's voice came from behind her. "Were you talking to George?"She turned around, seeing Stanley had returned to the room.His gaze landed on the box in her hand. His tall figure cast a shadow as he stood before her. "Grandma mentioned that he sent you a photo. What photo is it?"Wendy hesitated. Should she tell him about George? What would his reaction be if she did?She finally said, "This photo is—"Before she could finish, her phone rang again. This time, it was a call from Nathan.Wendy answered, and Nathan's excited voice came through. "Wendy, hurry up and come out. I've got a gift for you!"Wendy furrowed her brow. "Nathan, I can't really talk right now...""I'm right outside the Hawk family mansion. If you don't come

    Stanley had seen everything from the balcony earlier. He watched as Nathan gave Wendy the limited-edition Chanel bag, only for her to refuse it.Wendy turned to face him. "Did you tell Nathan that I liked bags?"Stanley raised an eyebrow, his sharp features still carrying that confident air. "Don't you? I remember you liking them."Wendy smirked, her red lips curling into a playful line. "I don't like bags. I like more expensive things, like diamond necklaces. Next time, have Nathan get me one of those."Stanley's expression darkened for a moment, the mood turning tense. The conversation quickly came to an end.He cleared his throat and shifted the topic. "What kind of photo did George send you today?"Wendy had initially planned to tell him about the photo and George, but she changed her mind. She responded calmly, "Just a childhood picture he took of me.""Did George—" Stanley seemed like he was about to ask more, but Wendy cut him off. "Mr. Hawk, are you free? If you have t

    Stanley didn't lift his eyes from the papers. "Go ahead.""Ten years ago, George was imprisoned for child molestation, child abuse, and attempted rape."The pen in Stanley's hand suddenly paused, its tip pressing down on the paper. He looked up at Zayn, shocked. "And the victim was Wendy?"Zayn nodded. "Yes, Mr. Hawk. George is a pervert and scum."Stanley's handsome features hardened into a cold, sharp expression. He had suspected there was some dark history between Wendy and George, but he never imagined it would be something like this.Just then, a ringtone echoed through the room, breaking the tension. It was a call.Stanley answered, and Cecelia's frantic voice came through the line. "Mr. Hawk, Wendy's in trouble!"Stanley gripped the phone tightly. "What happened to Wendy?""Wendy took a check to meet that animal, George. I followed her to the nightclub, but by the time I got inside, she was gone. He took her!"What?Stanley quickly stood up, striding out of the study.

    George sped down the highway in a white van, frequently glancing into the rearview mirror. Wendy lay unconscious in the backseat, her delicate face pale under the dim interior light. His gaze lingered on her figure, tracing every curve with an unsettling intensity. The mere thought of having her at his mercy made his blood boil with excitement. Still, he knew he couldn't act recklessly. He needed to get far away from Hovendale—someplace where no one knew either of them. Once there, she would have no chance to escape. Then, he could do whatever he pleased.The anticipation made him flush with heat. Just as his mind spiraled into darker thoughts, the car in front of him stopped moving, and he slammed on the brakes. "What the hell?" he muttered, squinting through the windshield. Ahead, the cars had come to a complete stop. Drivers were poking their heads out of their windows, trying to make sense of the standstill. "What's going on up there?" someone shouted. "An accident?"

    George's grip tightened. With a tearing sound, Wendy's collar was ripped open, exposing her delicate, pale skin to the cold air.A wave of memories hit Wendy, taking her back to years ago, in a similar cave, where she had been pinned beneath George. The foul stench of his body pressed down on her, and helplessness and fear engulfed her like a tidal wave. She felt as though she was suffocating, as though she was about to die. That young version of Wendy had been so close to death.She thought of Big Brother. Why wasn't he here?Suddenly, Wendy felt a weight press down on her again—George had leaned over her. She closed her eyes, bitterly realizing that even after all these years, when she found herself in a similar situation, her first thought was still of Stanley.She had grown up in some ways, but in other ways, she hadn't. She still longed for Stanley to come for her.Deep down, she knew he would never come.Wendy reached for her waist...But before she could do anything, a

    Wendy was gently lifted into the back of Stanley's Rolls-Royce Phantom, her delicate frame placed carefully in the passenger seat. Stanley slid into the driver's seat, his large hand gripping the steering wheel with ease. He pressed down on the accelerator, and the luxury car smoothly sped down the road.Wrapped in his coat, Wendy felt the warmth of his body and the crisp, clean scent surrounding her. She could feel his heat seep into her chilled skin, and her small nose flushed a soft pink. A strange, fluttering feeling stirred in her chest. She never imagined he would show up.Years ago, he hadn't come.But now, he had.Wendy turned her head to glance at his chiseled, handsome profile. "Thank you," she said softly.Stanley's long fingers gave the steering wheel a slight tug as he pursed his lips, his voice firm. "Why didn't you tell me?"Wendy hesitated, not sure how to respond."I asked you so many times. Why didn't you say anything?" His tone grew colder. "Do you know wh

    Stanley nodded and led Wendy toward the room.Wendy furrowed her brow slightly, curiosity flickering in her eyes. "What did she say comes with extra charges?"Stanley glanced at her, her innocent eyes wide with question, as if she was eager to know. He turned away, offering no response.They entered Room 503. It was clean, but there was only one bed.Wendy couldn't help but feel uneasy. How were they going to manage with just one bed tonight?"Wendy." Stanley called her name from behind.This was the second time he had said her name.Wendy turned to face him. "What's wrong?"She suddenly remembered their unfinished conversation. "You wanted to ask me something in the car earlier. What was it?""Did you—"Before Stanley could continue, his phone pinged, the sound cutting through the moment. It was a message from Jessica, along with a photo. Stanley opened the photo to find one from Jessica's childhood. As he looked at it, he noticed something: Jessica's childhood face

As a token of my gratitude, I'd like to invite Jessica to my house tomorrow," Halsey said.Hearing that she was inviting Jessica to the Lincoln family's estate tomorrow, Stanley nodded. "Alright."After he left, Wendy returned. "Hey, sorry I was gone for so long."Halsey took Wendy's hand. "I was just about to come find you."Wendy smiled in return. "Let's go. I'm hungry. Let's head to the snack street.""Alright. I'll take care of the bill," Halsey replied.Wendy immediately stopped her and pulled out a gold-embossed black card from her bag. "Don't fight me for it. Tonight, I'm paying. This is the card Stanley gave me when we divorced. From now on, I'll use his card. Let him foot the bill."Halsey's eyes lit up. "Attagirl! This is Mr. Hawk's compensation for you. If you don't spend it, Jessica will."Wendy stared at the black card in her hand. "How much do you think this card is worth?"Halsey thought for a moment. "I

It was outrageous!Stanley watched Wendy's slender figure as she walked away, his gaze deep and unreadable. No one could tell what he was thinking. He pressed his lips together, then said softly, "Alright, that's enough."Jessica quieted down, her anger toward Wendy still simmering beneath the surface.

"Let's head back."He had just acknowledged it—and he did it in front of Wendy.Jessica smiled sweetly, knowing that Wendy's heart was likely burning with a mix of envy, jealousy, and resentment. Wendy was probably suffering right now.A country bumpkin, still thinking to compete with her? Dream on!"Alright."Jessica wrapped her arm around Stanley's, turning to leave with him.Just as they were about to walk away, Wendy's clear voice rang out behind them. "Stanley."She was calling after him.Stanley stopped in his tracks, turning around.Jessica smiled. "Wendy, you two are divorced now. Are you still hung up on Stanley?

He was indifferent to everything around him. But when he heard Sienna, he looked up, his sharp, handsome eyes glimmering.He saw Wendy.Tonight, Wendy wore a sleeveless black dress. The tight fit accentuated her slender waist, and the puffed-out skirt made her long, white legs stand out even more. As she entered, she immediately caught the attention of many.

"I've seen my fair share of pretty faces, and they don't interest me. Even if this genius freshman isn't anything special, my feelings wouldn't change.

"Benny, are you even sure if she's single?"Benny had no idea who the genius freshman was. A while ago, he had tagged her in a group chat, asking if she had a boyfriend.

    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.

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?

    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.

    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.

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.
