Semua Bab The Heartbreak Prescription: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Stanley caught Wendy in his arms as she stumbled into him. His sharp gaze flickered down at her, displeasure evident in his tone. "Wendy, what are you doing back here?"Wendy hadn't expected him to come home. He was dressed in a sleek black suit, tailored perfectly to his tall frame, still carrying the crisp chill of the winter night on the expensive fabric.She instinctively leaned closer, seeking solace in his cool, composed presence."Stanley, help me..." she whispered, her voice trembling.Before she could say more, Stanley pushed her back gently but firmly, his brows furrowing. "What's wrong with you?"Wendy hesitated, biting her lip. She couldn't believe she had almost begged him for help. "I've been drugged," she admitted softly.'Drugged?'Stanley's expression darkened. This woman was always in trouble."Wait here," he commanded.Striding to the window, he pulled out his phone and made a call. His tall figure was framed by the night sky, one hand loosening his tie with

Wendy heard a buzzing noise. Did Stanley just suggest finding her a man or two?He had made his choice.Without hesitation, he had chosen Jessica.It felt like a blade had pierced Wendy's heart, twisting deeper and shredding her to pieces. Trembling, she struggled to regain her voice. "Stanley, I'm still…your wife..."Stanley, now immaculate in a black shirt and matching trousers, had reverted to his usual composed and aloof demeanor, as if the chaos of moments before had never happened. His voice was cold and detached as he extended something to her."This is for you," he said.Wendy glanced down. It was an eight-figure check.Above her, his magnetic, unfeeling voice could be heard. "Wendy, this is your divorce settlement. Let's end this."Stanley placed the check on the bathroom counter and strode out, leaving Wendy frozen in place.He was going to Jessica.Just like her mother had done years ago.Wendy's eyes turned red, tears welling up until they spilled over. Once ag

Stanley's mind wandered back to Wendy's delicate face, her soft lips fragrant and inviting. He had kissed her not long ago, and the memory of that tender moment lingered.As Jessica leaned in for a kiss, Stanley turned his head to avoid her.Jessica missed her mark and pouted. "Why are you avoiding me?"Stanley couldn't understand it himself. Jessica was the one he liked. A kiss between lovers was natural. He didn't like Wendy.But he had just kissed Wendy. The sensation of her lips was still vivid in his memory. As someone with an obsessive cleanliness disorder, the idea of moving seamlessly from one woman to another left him physically uncomfortable—almost repulsed. It felt unclean.Just then, there was a knock on the door.Zayn's voice came from outside. "Sir, the antidote is here."Antidote?Jessica froze. She had drugged herself, and Stanley had gone to fetch an antidote?Stanley removed Jessica's hands from his neck and stood up. Furious, Jessica grabbed a pillow and hur

In the living room at the Crone family villa, Harry sat on the sofa and looked at Lilian. "Lilian, are you sure Dr. Ceylan will treat Jessica?"Lilian smirked. Yesterday, Wendy, under the influence of the drug, left with Dr. Whalen. The two of them must have ignited a passionate flame during the short hours of the night. As long as Dr. Whalen got what he wanted, he would surely introduce Dr. Ceylan to treat Jessica.Lilian smiled. "Don't worry. Dr. Whalen will bring good news shortly."With that, she sat on Harry's lap. Harry, the CEO of his company, exuded the charm and authority of a middle-aged man. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she said coquettishly, "Honey, I was the one who brought Dr. Ceylan here. How are you planning to reward me?"Harry pinched her nose gently. "Didn't I already reward you last night? Didn't it satisfy you?"Lilian rolled her eyes playfully and pulled out a bottle of contraceptive pills. "Honey, I don't want to take these anymore. I want to get pregn

Jessica and Lilian's expressions instantly changed.Wendy turned to Jessica, feigning surprise. "Oh, no! Don't tell me Mr. Hawk didn't mention he kissed me last night?"She pretended to recall thoughtfully. "Last night, when Mr. Hawk kissed me, it was so clumsy and rushed, completely lacking any skill. Honestly, I started to doubt if he even knew how to kiss."Jessica looked at Stanley in shock. Had he kissed Wendy?Stanley's handsome face turned ice-cold in an instant. It was unclear whether it was because Wendy had deliberately told Jessica about their kiss, or because she publicly criticized his kissing skills. Either way, his sharp eyes darkened and fixed on Wendy with a chilling intensity."Wendy!" he called her name, displeased.Wendy sneered. 'Oh?' Was he upset just because she said something about Jessica?Her clear, piercing eyes landed on Stanley's face. "Why are you yelling? With kissing skills that bad, I don't even want to spend another minute with you. Let's get
