Chapter 444

Author: Glazed Snow
As soon as Wendy finished speaking, Jessica immediately stepped forward.

"That's not what I meant..."

Wendy fixed her gaze on Jessica. "Then what did you mean? Do you want me to treat you?"

Jessica fell silent, unable to find the right words.

Wendy's lips curved into a sly smile. "I can treat you, but you'll have to beg me."

Wendy was making Jessica beg her.

Jessica's face drained of color.

Wendy knew Jessica all too well. Jessica had always looked down on her, holding herself in high regard. The revelation that Wendy was Dr. Ceylan was a great blow to Jessica's pride.

Now, making her lower her head and beg for help was more humiliating than anything—far worse than death.

It wasn't just Jessica who felt the sting. Edith, Lilian, and Trish all felt the discomfort growing inside them, each more uneasy than the last.

Wendy's piercing eyes glinted with amusement as she looked at them. "Now, you're the ones who need something from me. When you beg, you have to show some sincerity

I really don’t understand why Stanley picks Jessica. She has shown him over and over again that she is horrendous. It makes no sense that he would still hang onto the whole cave incident. Also, I extremely dislike him continually forcing himself on Wendy. She should never be with him.

    Wendy told Stanley to make an appointment to talk to her.Stanley's handsome face darkened immediately. No one had ever dared to make him make an appointment. Wendy was the first."You'll have to excuse me."With that, Wendy walked off with a group of people, leaving Stanley standing there, frozen.Stanley could only stare, his expression cold.At that moment, Zayn approached. "Mr. Hawk, how about I talk to Ms. Wendy's assistant and schedule an appointment for you?"Right after Zayn spoke, Stanley shot him a sharp, cold look.Zayn felt completely innocent. "Before, Ms. Wendy was just Ms. Wendy. But now, she is the wonder doctor, Dr. Ceylan, a legend in the world of medicine. She's always been hard to reach. Even the wealthiest people have to schedule appointments to see her. I don't think you need to be upset, Mr. Hawk. Ms. Wendy surely isn't targeting you."Zayn was only trying to explain, but the more he spoke, the worse Stanley's mood seemed to get.Stanley snapped, "If you'

    Wendy gave a small, graceful smile and nodded casually.Stanley watched her, and at that moment, everything clicked. He finally understood why Wendy always called Cyril by his first name every time she saw him. It was because Cyril was her apprentice.Wendy was Dr. Ceylan."Dr. Ceylan, after you graduated from Harfield, you went to Condoria to participate in the development of a large-scale plague vaccine. Then, you suddenly disappeared. What happened?" "Yes, Dr. Ceylan. You disappeared from the public eye for three years. We've all been wondering what you were doing during that time." The group of people around her was clearly fascinated by Wendy.Wendy's lips curved into a playful smile as she answered, "I got married.""Married? You're married?" "Who could possibly be the amazing man who captured your heart? I'm so curious." Wendy's clear, piercing eyes briefly met Stanley's before she looked away. She laughed softly. "At the time, he was a vegetable.""A vegetable? You

    Dr. Ceylan had withdrawn from the public eye for three years, all for Stanley. It wasn't until now that Stanley finally understood that.He gazed at Wendy's delicate face, his voice trailing off. "Wendy, I—"Before he could finish, Wendy interrupted by addressing Halsey. "Hey, it's all in the past. We don't need to talk about it anymore. Let's go over there.""Okay," Halsey agreed, ready to leave.But Stanley reached out and grasped Wendy's slender wrist, stopping her from walking away.A sharp hiss escaped Wendy as Stanley tightened his grip.Wendy winced, and Stanley looked at her arm. "What's wrong?"Halsey quickly pulled Stanley's hand off Wendy's wrist. "Do you remember the kidnapping? Well, she was injured during the ordeal. Especially her arm—there's a large bruise there."Stanley's handsome brow furrowed in concern."Of course, at that time, you didn't hesitate to choose Jessica. You took her away and left Wendy behind. So, Mr. Hawk, you really don't need to be concer

    Wendy smiled softly as she said to Cyril, "I've heard for a while that Trish is one of your prized students."With that, Wendy settled into a seat, her eyes clear and her smile teasing as she looked at Trish. "According to seniority, Trish should be my grand-apprentice. So, Trish, I'd like you to offer me wine."Wendy sat confidently in the center of the room, her gaze a mix of humor and challenge, as she watched Trish.Trish felt like the pride she took in her prestigious education had just been crushed under Wendy's words."Alright. Someone get the wine," Cyril called out.Moments later, a maid arrived with the wine, and Cyril turned to Trish. "Trish, go serve Dr. Ceylan some wine, and call her 'Grand-mentor'."Trish stayed rooted to the spot.Wendy's lips curled into a sly smile. "Why are you hesitating? Come over here."Someone nearby chuckled, "Trish, to have Dr. Ceylan as your grand-mentor is a rare blessing. Why are you still standing there? Go offer her wine."Edith and

    Everyone gathered around Edith and Lilian, marveling at how they had raised such an exceptional young lady like Wendy.Tonight's dinner was filled with elites from all walks of life—exactly the kind of crowd Edith had always dreamed of. She had always craved the spotlight, yearning to stand on the highest stage and bask in everyone's admiration. For years, Edith had placed her hopes on Jessica and Trish. She had been living in a fantasy where Jessica married Stanley and Trish married Dr. Ceylan, hoping these two would elevate her to the top. But now, what Jessica and Trish couldn't accomplish, Wendy had easily achieved for her.Now, Edith truly was the center of envy.Oddly, this wasn't the feeling she had expected.Edith forced a smile, one that barely concealed her discomfort.Lilian, standing next to her, clenched her fists in frustration. She too wore a smile, but it was more painful than tears.At that moment, Wendy looked over at Edith and Lilian, her lips curling into a

    Stanley, the wealthiest man in Hovendale, had the power to command the world with a mere gesture. As long as he was present, Jessica was confident no one would dare to speak ill of her.In other words, with Stanley by her side, Jessica believed she embodied the ultimate pride of the Crone family.The room quickly quieted down, the gossip dying away.Lilian, wearing a smug smile, looked at Wendy. "Wendy, I know you despise me, but you can't just stand by and let Jessica die, can you?"Jessica immediately chimed in, "Wendy, you know I have a heart condition. Stanley even spent a fortune asking you to treat me, yet you refused to help. You wanted to watch me die, didn't you? How cruel can you be?"The two of them played off each other, bringing up the heart condition to pin the blame on Wendy.Wendy had known from the moment this mother-daughter duo showed up that they were clearly setting the stage for something.Wendy's eyes narrowed as she faced them. "Jessica, do you really not

    Jessica's face turned pale with panic. "I..."She quickly glanced at Lilian.Without hesitation, Lilian stepped forward. "It wasn't Jessica! It was me! I was the one who contacted that man with the scar and set up this entire kidnapping!"Wendy stared at Lilian. Since Lilian had jumped in to take the blame, it was clear that she and Jessica were desperate.In an attempt to protect Jessica, Lilian had taken all the blame upon herself.Wendy let out a bitter laugh. Was this what they called a mother's love?Why? Wendy was Lilian's biological daughter, but Lilian had always treated Jessica as if the latter were her own flesh and blood. Wendy wondered what she had done wrong.Being betrayed by her own mother like this stung, no matter how many times it happened. Everyone stared at Lilian in shock. "It was you?" Halsey, furious, snarled, "Mrs. Crone, Wendy is your real daughter! You hired thugs to kidnap her and tried to have her killed! Are you out of your mind?"Lilian h

    All eyes turned to Jessica. "It's obvious that Mrs. Crone and Ms. Jessica teamed up to try to kill Ms. Wendy!""Luckily, Ms. Wendy is the wonder doctor Dr. Ceylan. If it weren't for that, she might have died a dozen times over at their hands.""Honestly, Jessica is shameless. She stole someone else's mother, family, and place of belonging... What more does she want? Why would she still want to harm Dr. Ceylan?""Some people are just born bad seeds."Hearing people calling her a bad seed, Jessica felt a knot form in her stomach. She realized that tonight, Wendy had expertly trapped her in a web of lies and manipulation.Stanley's disappointed gaze was fixed on Jessica, and the weight of his stare hit her like a ton of bricks. "Why did you do this? You've truly let me down."Stanley could barely recognize the person Jessica had become. Was this the same girl who had once cared for him in the cave?Jessica wanted to explain herself. "I—"But Wendy stepped forward, cutting her of

    "Stanley, I've noticed something. You've really changed. You've started treating me so coldly. Why were you with Wendy last night? "I was so forward just now, and you pushed me away. You want to be with Wendy, but won't even touch me. Am I really not as charming as she is?"Stanley's handsome face was bathed in the soft, dim light, making it difficult to read his expression. "My patience has limits. If you don't show me the crystal pendant soon, I'll—""Look at this!" Jessica pulled out the crystal pendant.Stanley froze, recognizing it instantly. It was his—a unique, family heirloom from the Hawk family, one of a kind.It was his crystal pendant.The girl who had saved him all those years ago... It was really Jessica!Jessica looked at Stanley, her voice tinged with hurt. "I've kept this pendant all this time. It breaks my heart to see how you've changed. How could you doubt me? Did Wendy say something? Did she tell you she saved you?"She's really scheming. Back then, I fe

    Stanley looked down at the beautiful, tempting Jessica beneath him, his gaze softening as he slowly lowered his head.-Meanwhile, Wendy had returned to her apartment. She indulged in a relaxing hot bath before slipping into a soft nightgown. Just as she settled, the familiar ping of a notification rang from her phone.Wendy picked it up to find a message from Jessica on WhatsApp. A voice message had been sent.Curious, Wendy opened it, and immediately Jessica's voice filled the air, her seductive tone unmistakable. "Stanley, slow down… Ah… you're hurting me…"Wendy's delicate face hardened, her expression freezing as she processed the unexpected content. She hadn't anticipated that Jessica would send her an audio recording of her moaning.It seemed that Jessica and Stanley were already doing the deed, and Jessica had taken the opportunity to send the recording.Without a change in her demeanor, Wendy set the phone down and went back to whatever she had been doing.Time passe

    Jessica froze, her confusion clear. "What do you mean by that?"Wendy smiled slyly, her voice soft but cutting. "You just can't satisfy Mr. Hawk. He's been restless lately, and every time I even touch him, he gets worked up."What?Jessica gasped, her breath catching in shock.Wendy turned away, not bothering to say more. She opened her apartment door and walked inside.She shut the door behind her with a thud, leaving Jessica standing there, caught in the cold wind.Jessica turned to Stanley, frustration boiling over. "What exactly happened between you two?"Stanley wasn't in the mood to discuss it. He opened the door to his apartment, his voice flat. "Come in."Jessica stepped inside, her eyes wide with wonder. This was her first time at Stanley's apartment, and the luxurious surroundings left her speechless once again.Stanley's deep, cool voice broke the silence. "You wanted to come to my apartment, and now you're here. Can I finally see the crystal pendant?"Stanley was

    Wendy's heart skipped a beat. Tonight, Stanley was taking Jessica home—did that mean the two of them would be spending the night together?Jessica flashed a smug smile at Wendy, clearly enjoying the moment. "I think it's time for us to head out. You and Dr. Binder can take your time chatting."She turned to Stanley, "Let's go."Stanley gave Wendy a long, quiet glance. He didn't say a word and led Jessica away.Terence watched the couple leave, a look of disbelief on his face. "How could Mr. Hawk be so blind? How could he choose someone like Jessica?"Wendy smiled but said nothing. Relationships were complicated—Jessica might be foolish, but Stanley clearly still loved her. She could only say it was true love.Terence spoke up again. "Boss, just imagine when Jessica finds out who you really are—when she learns that you're the real boss of NovaHealth, the head of the largest publicly listed healthcare company in the country. I bet she'll be speechless."Wendy could easily picture

    Wendy raised her delicate eyebrows. "Mr. Hawk, Jessica. What a coincidence, running into you here.""I can imagine you didn't want to run into us. You're probably afraid we'll find out about the nasty things you're doing," Jessica shot back, her voice dripping with sarcasm. As the boss of NovaHealth, Wendy had a lot of influence. When Terence heard someone insulting her, he immediately stepped in. "Ms. Jessica, why do you have to speak so rudely?""Dr. Binder, why are you protecting her so much? Does your wife know you're having dinner with her?"Terence shot back, "I—"Wendy waved her hand, signaling Terence to step back.Terence obediently moved aside.Wendy looked at Jessica with a smirk, amusement dancing in her eyes. "It sounds like you're implying something. What are you trying to say? Are you accusing me of having an improper relationship with Dr. Binder?"Jessica let out a cold laugh. "Everyone knows that NovaHealth is the largest publicly listed healthcare company in

    "Stanley, please listen to me," Jessica pleaded, her voice trembling as she tried to explain.Stanley watched her quietly, his gaze steady and unyielding. "I don't want to hear anything else right now. I just want to know where that crystal pendant is."His lips curled into a cold, almost menacing smile. "You wouldn't be lying to me, would you?"Jessica stiffened, her heart sinking. "Lying to you? What do you mean?"Stanley's eyes narrowed as his voice grew more intense. "Is it possible that the girl who saved me all those years ago wasn't you, but someone else? You haven't been lying to me all this time, pretending to be her, have you?"His eyes bore into hers with a chilling calmness, making Jessica feel an icy shiver crawl up her spine. Stanley had never looked at her like this before. Had he figured it out? Did he realize she wasn't the real girl from that day?Stanley's face remained expressionless, but the silence only deepened her unease. She had no idea how much he kn

    Jessica smiled sweetly, her face flushed with shyness.Just then, the doors to Velvet Vogue swung open, and Wendy and Samuel walked in.Samuel spoke up. "Dr. Binder is waiting for us. Let's go inside."Wendy moved toward the entrance, but her steps halted suddenly as she spotted two familiar figures. Following her gaze, Samuel saw Stanley and Jessica. At that moment, Stanley and Jessica were holding hands, gazing into each other's eyes with such a tender look it was almost sweet enough to make anyone believe in fairy tales. Samuel smirked. "I didn't realize Mr. Hawk was such a busy man. He carried you to his place last night, and tonight he's here having dinner with Jessica. Playing the field between two women—he's really an expert at this."Shaking his head, Samuel chuckled. "Didn't expect him to be such a player."Wendy stared at Stanley and Jessica, then said, "No, he's not a player."Samuel raised an eyebrow, looking at Wendy in surprise.Wendy continued, "He's always

    Wendy returned to her apartment. Just as she was about to settle in, her phone rang.It was a call from Samuel.Wendy pressed the button to answer. "Hey, Samuel.""Wendy, you're awake! How was it, sleeping at Mr. Hawk's last night?" Samuel teased.Wendy furrowed her brows. "How did I end up sleeping at his place?""He carried you back last night. He just took you straight to his place. I tried to take you, but he wouldn't give you to me. I don't think I would've won if we really got into a fight."Wendy was dumbfounded.It seemed she had fallen asleep in Stanley's car, and he had carried her back to his apartment. But why had he taken her to his place?"Is there something new going on between you two?" Samuel asked, a hint of curiosity in his voice."No. We're divorced. Nothing like that will happen again," Wendy replied firmly.She and Stanley were no longer together, and she would keep her distance from him from now on."Alright, then. How about we meet tonight at Velvet

    Wendy's delicate body was nestled in his oversized suit, her small face flushed with a faint rosy hue.Stanley didn't wake her. He opened the car door, stepped out, and gently lifted Wendy in his arms, cradling her like a delicate treasure.As Stanley carried Wendy to his floor, he ran into Samuel, who had just stepped outside. "Oh, you brought her back. Is she asleep? I'll take it from here."Samuel reached out, ready to take Wendy from Stanley.However, Stanley had no intention of handing Wendy over. He walked around Samuel, holding Wendy securely as he made his way into his apartment."Mr. Hawk," Samuel called out to him from behind.Stanley paused for a moment.Looking at him, Samuel continued, "We're all adults here. If you love her, love her with everything you have. If you don't, then let her go. Playing between Wendy and Jessica like this isn't fair to either of them, and it's going to hurt everyone."Stanley didn't respond.Samuel pressed on, "Who do you really love:
