Chapter 182

Author: Glazed Snow
Did humiliating her really make him this happy?

-

Stanley stood on the balcony, wearing a black silk robe. He held a cigarette between his long fingers, taking quick, sharp drags. The smoke spiraled up, obscuring his face, but the tight furrow in his handsome brow was clear.

He smoked in frustration, the ash tipping off the end of the cigarette in angry bursts, lit red sparks falling to the floor.

He felt like he was losing his mind.

There was nothing wrong with the Executive Suite. He had instructed the resort manager to say that. He just didn't want Wendy and Nathan in a room alone.

The thought of her ordering condoms and lingerie made his mind race with images of what she might be doing with Nathan. He couldn't control the jealousy churning inside him.

In the dead of night, Stanley suddenly realized something terrifying. He couldn't bear the thought of Wendy with another man.

He didn't love her, but he craved the pleasure she gave him.

It was just supposed to be a c

    "Alright." With that, Shaun grabbed the car keys and left. After he was gone, Halsey stepped out of the study, planning to head back to her room.But just then, Chelsea's voice rang out. "Hello, Ms. Mallin."Halsey froze and turned her head, glancing downstairs. Two familiar faces came into view—Chelsea and Warren."How did you get in here?" Halsey asked.Warren replied, "I used my fingerprint to get in."In that moment, Halsey immediately understood Chelsea's game. She hadn't expected Chelsea to actually use Warren like this."Warren," she said sharply, "you called Shaun to get him out of the house, and then you brought Chelsea in? If he finds out, he's going to cut all ties with you!"Warren hesitated, but Chelsea quickly snapped at Halsey, "Stop trying to mess with his head! Warren and I are doing this for Shaun's good. We can't let him destroy himself because of you!"Halsey let out a cold laugh. "No. You working with Gilbert is what's going to ruin Shaun."Warren stif

    Inside the villa, Halsey had just finished a hot shower. She brewed a fresh cup of coffee and brought it to the study. Raising her hand, she knocked lightly on the door.Shaun's voice came through almost immediately. "Come in."She opened the door. Shaun was seated in his desk chair, going over documents.Halsey walked over and placed the coffee beside him. "Here's your coffee."Without looking up, Shaun stayed focused on his work. "Just leave it there."Halsey didn't want to disturb him, so she turned to leave.Before she could take a step, his hand suddenly caught her wrist. He pulled her straight onto his lap, wrapping his arms around her. "You made this yourself?"She gave him a playful punch with her small fist. "Weren't you concentrating on work? I thought you didn't even notice me."A smile played on Shaun's lips. "Well, you personally made me coffee—how could I not notice? I've stopped focusing on work the moment you walked in.""Hey, I didn't do anything! Don't blam

    Halsey had hung up on purpose. As long as she didn't take the bait, Gilbert and Chelsea would only get more desperate. Sooner or later, they would start to panic and do something reckless. All she had to do now was wait.-At the moment, Chelsea was with Warren. As soon as he set his phone down, she asked eagerly, "Well? Did she agree to meet?"Warren shook his head. "No, she said she wasn't coming. Said she didn't have time."Chelsea clenched her fists. So Halsey refused to show up. That meant they would have to try something else."You have access to Shaun's villa, right?" She asked. "Your fingerprint is in the lock system."Warren looked at her. "Why are you asking about that?"Chelsea leaned in slightly. "Since Halsey won't come out, that leaves only one option. You need to sneak me into the villa so I can talk to her. Also, you'll have to call Shaun and find a way to get him out of the house. That's the only way I'll get to speak to Halsey alone."Warren frowned. "

    "It's time to make our move! We can't wait any longer," Chelsea said to Gilbert."After what happened last time, Halsey is on high alert. Looks like our best chance is to use Warren," Gilbert said. Chelsea thought for a moment. "You're right. Warren is Shaun's best friend—he's the perfect weapon against Halsey.""Warren trusts you completely," Gilbert sneered. "He's never suspected a thing. If he finds out who you really are…"Chelsea cut him off sharply, "He'll never find out! He trusts me completely."Gilbert nodded. "Good. Now call him and have him ask Halsey out. We have to make our move."Chelsea smiled. "Will do."She grabbed her phone and dialed Warren. "You don't want Halsey and Shaun to end up together, right? She's hurt him time and again. We can't let him fall for her again. As his best friend, we have to protect him.""What do you want to do?" Warren asked.Chelsea said, "Call Halsey and get her to meet you. We'll talk then."Warren agreed without hesitation. "

    Halsey didn't need to look back to know how furious Warren was at this moment, but she couldn't care less. She figured he would find Chelsea next, and then Chelsea would turn to Gilbert. The two of them would certainly panic.And that was exactly what Halsey wanted—to force them into a corner and make them slip up.As Halsey walked away, Warren was seething. He simply couldn't understand why Shaun had loved Halsey for so many years and had even proposed. At this rate, they might really get married soon.Without hesitation, Warren pulled out his phone and dialed Chelsea.Chelsea wasn't alone right now—she was with Gilbert.Because of the Elise incident, Chelsea had kept a low profile for a few days. Still, both she and Gilbert were becoming more anxious. Halsey was pregnant, and that belly was only going to get bigger.Chelsea's phone rang, and she glanced at the screen. "It's Warren."Gilbert was swirling a glass of wine in his hand. "Answer it."Chelsea picked up. "Hey.""B

    Halsey's pale eyes suddenly welled up with tears. After all the years she had known Shaun, she had always dreamed of marrying him.And now, he had proposed.She opened her mouth to speak, but just then, Warren appeared. "Shaun, what are you doing here?"At that moment, Halsey remembered—Warren, Chelsea, and Gilbert still hadn't been dealt with.Before she and Shaun could get married, all of this must be ended. Shaun also deserved to know the truth about what had happened back then.Halsey looked at Shaun and said, "I need to think about it."Shaun smiled gently. "Take your time. My baby's growing in your belly, so I'm not worried about you running off—I can wait."He said he could wait. And somehow, that meant more to Halsey than any sweet talk ever could.If it hadn't been for his persistence these past three years, the two of them might have already parted ways forever due to all the lies and schemes.Yet, he had never let go of her hand.Just then, Warren walked up.
