Chapter 22

Author: Glazed Snow
Stanley froze for a moment.

Wendy lay beneath him, her silky black hair cascading over the crimson bedspread—a shade specifically chosen by Glinda for their wedding room. The red accentuated the creamy fairness of her skin, making her appear luminous, almost ethereal.

There was an air of sensuality about the scene, but the thought of her lying like this beneath another man...

Stanley's fists clenched involuntarily.

He had intended to clarify that the 'delivery' last night was medicine, not a man. But as the words reached his lips, they refused to come out.

Wendy's cold gaze met his. "Move."

She had ordered him to move.

Stanley didn't budge.

Frustrated, Wendy began to struggle. The memory of him bringing Jessica into his private wing last night flashed through her mind, and it made her recoil from even the slightest physical contact with him.

"Stanley, get off me! After spending the night with Jessica, did you even bother to clean yourself?"

Stanley stiffened in silence.

  • The Heartbreak Prescription   Chapter 1091

    Stanley still wanted to take Wendy home.She reached out and wrapped her arms around him.He pulled her in tight, holding her so close it felt as if he wanted to melt her into his bones. He didn't ever want to be separated from her again.But they had to part ways. She couldn't go home with him.He could ignore his own pain and chase after her, but she couldn't just stand by and watch him fall deeper into this."I'm leaving," Wendy stated as she loosened her grip.She opened the car door, stepped out, and walked away."Wendy!" Stanley called after her as he jumped out of the car as well.But she didn't stop. She didn't even look back. She just kept walking away.Stanley's expression darkened. He leaned weakly against the car, his whole body heavy with defeat. Pulling out a cigarette, he lit it and took a long drag.A moment later, Zayn walked up to him. "Mr. Hawk, where should we go now?"Stanley exhaled slowly, the smoke curling through the air, but said nothing.-On her

    "Who said I'm jealous? Let go of me—mmph!"Before Wendy could finish, Stanley pulled her into his arms and kissed her hard.She struggled to push him away, still fuming inside, and bit his lower lip."Ow!" he hissed. "Why do you like biting so much?""If you don't let me go, I'll bite you again!" she snapped.Stanley shifted his position so that she was straddling his waist. "I don't mind the pain. Go ahead and bite all you want."Then he kissed her again.Wendy's body went weak. When she felt him unbuttoning her blouse, she panicked. "Stop, don't!"His voice came low and rough. "You're not allowed to say no."She asked, worried, "But aren't you in pain?" "If you're worried about me, then stop wasting time. I've wanted you all day."She smacked his chest. "So that's why you came to find me?""Yes. So what?" he said without shame. Before she could hit him again, he caught her lips with his.Then, she suddenly remembered—she was pregnant. It had been over three months, wh

    Wendy stayed crouched in the corner, and she froze when she heard Jessica's words. Her heart skipped, and she slowly looked up at Stanley.He lowered his sharp gaze toward her, his eyes dark and burning.Their eyes met."Stanley? Did you hear what I said?" Jessica's voice broke the silence.Stanley looked away. "The past doesn't matter anymore. Don't bring it up again.""Then let's talk about now," Jessica said softly. She stood up, smoothing out her designer dress. She had trained as a dancer, and her figure was graceful, her face beautiful and glowing. "Let me go over to your place tonight. You and Wendy are over. Don't you want me at all?"Jessica had once dated Stanley, and she knew him well. He was a man with strong desires—very strong ones.Wendy felt her cheeks burn. She didn't want to hear any of this.Even though Stanley had agreed to marry Jessica, actually seeing this conversation unfold still made Wendy's stomach twist.Stanley's face stayed unreadable. "I'm busy t

    Jessica had caught up and was now knocking on Stanley's car window.Wendy turned to him in panic. "Jessica's here!""Ignore her," Stanley said firmly."But she's right outside.""She can't see in. Let her knock if she wants to."Jessica really had followed them. She couldn't stand how cold Stanley had been toward her. When she spotted his fancy car parked nearby, she ran over and started knocking on the window.But after a while, there was still no response from inside.Jessica knew Stanley was in there. There was only one explanation—he was ignoring her. Annoyed, she pulled out her phone and dialed his number.The cheerful ringtone echoed inside the car. Stanley's phone was ringing.Wendy immediately pushed him away. "She's calling you. You should answer.""I don't want to," he muttered."If you don't, she'll just keep calling!"Wendy knew Jessica all too well. Sure enough, when Stanley didn't pick up, Jessica called again. And again.Stanley still refused to answer. Be

    Wendy jumped in surprise. Who was it?When she turned around, Stanley's handsome face came sharply into view.He had chased after her again.Wendy tried to pull her arm away. "What are you doing? Let me go!"He frowned slightly. "I'm not letting go.""Let go of me! Ah!" Wendy yelped as Stanley suddenly leaned down and tried to lift her over his shoulder.Worried about the babies, she panicked. Struggling hard, she cried, "Don't carry me like that! Put me down! Hey!"Seeing her resist, Stanley quickly changed his hold. He scooped her up in his arms instead and carried her toward his sleek black car. He opened the back door and set her inside.Wendy tried to get out, but Stanley climbed in right after her and caught her wrist. "Stop it."She froze and glared at him. "You're the one who needs to stop."Stanley pulled her close against his chest. "It's okay. I'm not in pain."He said he wasn't in pain, but that couldn't be true.Wendy knew he was lying. The Heartchain Curse cau

    Wendy turned around and walked away. She wandered alone through the quiet hallway when a low, warm voice rang out from behind her. "Wendy."She stopped and looked back to see Stanley catching up to her.He had followed her out."Wendy!" Stanley called as he walked closer.Wendy quickly took several steps back. "Don't come any closer! We should keep some distance between us."He still carried the Heartchain Curse in his body. The closer he got to her, the worse the pain became.Stanley was the kind of man who never cried out, no matter how much it hurt. Because he stayed silent, Wendy never really knew how much pain he was in. The only thing she could do for him was stay far enough away.Seeing her back away, Stanley froze where he stood. There were only a few steps between them, yet it felt like an impossible distance.Wendy asked Stanley softly, "What did you want to talk to me about?"He hesitated for a moment. "Nothing. I just wanted to see you."Wendy's heart softened a
