Wendy shifted, trying to get up.But the moment she moved, Stanley stirred awake. He wrapped his arms around her. "You're awake?"Wendy buried her face in his chest and said nothing.Stanley's eyes were still heavy with sleep, his usual cold and distant demeanor softened into something lazy and almost sensual. He reached out and pinched her cheek gently. "What's wrong? Are you mad at me? Giving me the silent treatment?"Of course, Wendy was angry. Last night, he had forced himself on her. She didn't want to deal with him right now.Stanley smiled, planting a kiss on her forehead. "You're adorable even when you're mad."Wendy twisted her fingers into his muscles, giving him a sharp pinch.Stanley rolled over, pinning her beneath him. "Didn't have enough last night? Then let's keep going."Wendy trembled. Last night, he had drained every bit of her strength, and now he wanted more?She refused firmly. "No! It's daytime now. There's still no news from Jessica. I'm really worried

Jessica couldn't believe it. She never imagined Wendy would have the nerve to show up at the Larson family's estate, home of the richest man.Jessica snapped, "We're not on friendly enough terms for you to just drop by my house. You're not welcome here. You should go!"She was already starting to kick her out.Wendy lifted her brows, but made no move to leave. Since she had come to the Larson family's estate, she had no intention of walking out so easily.She glanced at Horace before saying, "But Mr. Larson himself allowed me to come. Mr. Larson, I don't suppose you'd go back on your word and kick me out now, would you?"Wendy trusted Horace's character. A man like him would never do something so petty as to send her away.Sure enough, Horace looked at Jessica and said, "Since it's Wendy's first time in the Capital, let her stay. I brought her here straight from the airport."Jessica's eyes widened. "Dad!"Horace commanded the maid, "Bring the tea."He walked into the living r

Jessica was frazzled. "I'm not standing you up! My dad came back, and something came up here.""Well, how do we know if you're telling the truth? You promised to pay us more, but you haven't given us money, and you don't even show up! What else are we supposed to think?""I'll give you more money, but not right now," Jessica tried to explain. "Enough, stop yelling at me! It's late, and my dad should be asleep. I'm coming over right now.""Alright. We hope you really show up this time.""How are they doing?" Jessica asked."They're fine. We wouldn't dare make a move without your orders."Jessica was actually furious. If those people hadn't taken Angela, she wouldn't be in so much trouble. Bella would've been easy to take care of.She hung up and stood up, quietly stepping out of her room. The huge mansion was silent; everyone was presumably asleep. She crept down the stairs, carefully opened the front door, and tried to leave.The moment the door swung open, a group of men in bl

Horace glared at Wendy, his brow tightening with displeasure. "You'd better watch it!"Everyone knew Brittany was a thorn deeply lodged in Horace's heart—no one dared to touch that subject. But Wendy not only dared to touch it, she openly mocked him right here. This girl was truly bold.Wendy met his gaze calmly. "Which part of what I said was wrong?"Horace paused, then said firmly, "Nothing ever happened between Ida and me."Wendy tilted her head, unfazed. "If nothing happened, then why did Ms. Brewer misunderstand?"Horace paused before answering, "She was just petty and jealous."Wendy's eyes glinted with a sharp edge. "You're funny, Mr. Larson. When things went wrong, you said it was because she was petty and jealous. If there were no other women around you, how could she be jealous? In other words, knowing how jealous she is, why did you still keep other women close to you?"Horace was left speechless.Before, Brittany's drama had given him headaches. Now, with Wendy he

Jessica was overjoyed. She had finally managed to escape.She glanced around cautiously. Everything was quiet—completely still. No one knew she had slipped away from the Larson family's estate under the cover of night. Now, she could move about freely and carry out whatever plans she had, without anyone suspecting a thing.A cold, bitter smile curled on her lips. She was going to turn all the trouble Wendy had caused her over the past few days into punishment for Bella.Without another word, she turned and walked away.-Jessic soon arrived at the kidnappers' hideout. The man in black opened the door to let her in. "About time you showed up!"Smack.Without hesitation, Jessica slapped him hard across the face. "How dare you talk to me with that attitude on the phone? Is that how you treat your boss?"The man clutched his cheek and forced a sheepish smile. "Sorry. We were just worried you wouldn't come. We're all on the same side now. Please calm down, and let's take care of t
