Chapter 449

Author: Glazed Snow
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

    Two beeps rang out as the line went dead.Wendy gripped her phone tightly. What secrets could this private winery be hiding? For Bella and Angela's sake, she had no choice but to go.Stanley could never find out about this.Back in Stanley's office, Wendy said, "Halsey wants to see me. I'll head out for a while."Stanley didn't suspect a thing. "Alright. I'll keep an eye on things here. You be careful."Wendy nodded. "I will."-Half an hour later, Wendy arrived at the private winery. A maid approached her. "Are you Ms. Wendy?"Wendy nodded. "Yes, that's me.""Everyone at the party is required to change clothes. We've prepared an outfit for you over here. Please change."Wendy took the clothes. "Okay."She went into the dressing room and opened the garment. It was a black slip dress with spaghetti straps, the back mostly bare—bold, sexy, and striking.She had no choice but to put it on.The black dress clung to Wendy's graceful figure, showing off her elegant collarbones a

    Jessica sank onto the sofa, her mind racing as she tried to think clearly. What would be her next move?Angela was missing—Stanley must already know. Right now, he was most likely with Wendy, and the two of them were probably plotting together against her.Jessica's frustration boiled over. She couldn't afford to lose such a golden opportunity. Wendy had to disappear—no matter what it took.She pulled out her phone and typed a message to Wendy.At that moment, Wendy sat in the CEO's office at Hawk Group. Her phone buzzed with a notification. She glanced at the screen—it was a message from an unknown number. [If you want your daughter to stay alive, go somewhere isolated and answer my call. Remember, if anyone else finds out, your daughter dies on the spot.]A cold shiver ran down Wendy's spine. The kidnappers had reached out.She was more worried they wouldn't make a move. Now that they had, there would be a way to find a weakness.The phone number was generated through a vi

    The men in black quickly came forward, bowing respectfully. "Ms. Larson."Jessica's eyes locked onto them as she cut straight to the point. "Have you gotten the girl like I asked?""Yes, Ms. Larson," one replied.Her eyes lit up with satisfaction. Finally, she had taken the illegitimate child Wendy had given birth to! As soon as Bella was taken care of, her true identity would remain a secret forever. With that weight off her shoulders, she could finally breathe easy."Take me to see her. Now!""Right this way."The men in black led Jessica to a small, dark room. The door had a tiny window, and through it, she spotted Angela cradling Bella in her arms. The grandmother and granddaughter were huddled together in the corner.Jessica froze. She wasn't sure if her eyes were playing tricks on her, so she looked again. She then realized she wasn't mistaken—Angela was really there!What was going on? Why was Angela here?Jessica turned to the men in black. "Why is there someone else i

    Wendy sat speechless, staring at Stanley in shock. She couldn't believe what she had just heard—he actually claimed he was going to be a homewrecker!A man like Stanley, with his status and influence, had no shortage of women. Yet here he was, willing to step down from his pedestal just to be a third wheel.On the other end of the line, Samuel was clearly stunned as well. He was at a loss for words."Anyway, I'm busy. Bye."Without waiting for a response, Stanley hung up the phone. He turned to Wendy, who was still staring at him in disbelief. A crooked smile played on his lips. "Why are you looking at me like that?"Wendy shivered, her long lashes fluttering. "You shouldn't have said those things to Samuel. It's only going to cause misunderstandings."Stanley reached out and gently cupped Wendy's delicate chin. "Every word I said is true. Why shouldn't I say it? Or are you worried my words will cause trouble for you? Make it hard for you to explain to Samuel when you're back?"

    A shiver ran down Stanley's spine. Wendy was like a poppy flower—once he touched her, he couldn't help but crave more. That irresistible, overwhelming craving sent his blood racing, making it almost impossible to control himself.He buried his handsome face in her long hair, his voice husky as he murmured, "What did you want to say?"Stanley was breathing hard.Wendy's long lashes fluttered nervously. Her delicate, lovely face flushed a deep, intoxicating shade of red. "Let go of me!"He kissed her hair softly. "But your body isn't saying the same thing. Your body's a lot more honest than you are."Wendy felt like everything was slipping out of her control. She tried to push Stanley away. "Stanley!"Without warning, he bit down gently on her pale earlobe. "Haven't you slept with Samuel?"Wendy's pupils shrank, and she wanted nothing more than to cover his mouth."He can't satisfy you in bed, huh? Because I'm pretty sure you haven't been properly satisfied," Stanley pressed on

    Stanley's handsome face suddenly filled Wendy's vision, close enough to fill her whole world. He held her gently by the soft curve of her waist, his voice low and concerned. "Are you okay?"It had been three long years since they had been apart. His clean, fresh scent wrapped around her again. Falling into his warm embrace made her head spin.She quickly snapped back to reality. Raising her hand and pressing it firmly against his strong chest, she tried to push him away. "I'm fine. Thanks."Stanley didn't loosen his hold. Instead, he pulled her closer, his grip tightening around her waist. "What were you just thinking about?"Wendy blinked, startled. "I wasn't thinking about anything.""Liar," he teased. "I know you were thinking about me."He called her out on her lie.Their bodies were pressed tightly together now—his solid strength against her delicate softness—and the air between them grew charged, heavy with tension. Wendy tried to pull back. "Please let go of me.""Wh
