Chapter 221 Chapter 221 Chapter 221 Wendy withdrew her gaze and shook her head. "Halsey, I'm fine." She pulled out her phone and dialed the Hawk family's estate. Glinda's voice came through, full of cheer. "Wendy, you finally decided to call! I've missed you so much!" Wendy looked out the window at the sleek, business-class car approaching. "Grandma, I don't have class tonight. I can come back to the family estate for dinner." "That's wonderful! Stanley's coming back tonight too.
I'll be waiting for you." "Okay." After ending the call, Wendy turned to Halsey and said, "Halsey, I need to go back to the Hawks." "Alright. Go have dinner with Mrs. Glinda," Halsey replied. Wendy met his gaze. "No, I'm going to find out who's backing Luna." "What?" Halsey blinked, clearly taken aback. The long Rolls-Royce glided steadily down the road. Zayn drove up front while Luna sat in the back, glancing at the man beside her.
Stanley wore a tailored black suit, a handkerchief tucked into his pocket. He had just come from a high-level meeting, and his sharp business aura blended with the city's neon lights, looking just as astonishing as it had been when she first caught a glimpse of him. Stanley held a file, flipping through it without acknowledging Luna. Luna gazed at him, admiration clear in her eyes. "Mr. Hawk, I fell from the wire today, but I'm fine.

You didn't need to come check on me." Stanley didn't look up, his voice cold as he asked, "Did Wendy visit you at the hospital?" Luna froze. Stanley snapped the file shut, his dark, cold eyes finally locking onto her. "Careful what you say in front of Wendy, understand?" His commanding gaze made it clear: He was warning her to watch her words around Wendy. Luna stiffened. She had thought he had come specifically to see her after she fell, but instead, his words were all about Wendy.
Even more troubling was the warning he gave her, reminding her not to speak out of line in front of Wendy. Luna understood his unspoken message-he didn't want Wendy to know about their night together. The humiliation of her misplaced feelings made her fist tighten. How could she not resent Wendy? She came from humble beginnings, but Wendy was also from the countryside, not someone above her.

Wendy, on the other hand, was 1/2 Chapter 221 calm, smart, and decisive everything Luna was not. And to make matters worse, Wendy had become Mrs. Hawk marrying a man who was practically a god in Luna's eyes. Why her? If Wendy could do it, why couldn't Luna?
Luna had been keeping track of Stanley's movements, waiting for the right moment. That night, when Zayn was seeking out a virgin, Luna thought her opportunity had arrived. But when she went to the Imperial Garden, Wendy had already beaten her to it and spent the night with Stanley. The person who should have been with Stanley was her! She was jealous of Wendy; she hated Wendy. Even more so now; Stanley's indifferent, cold tone only fueled her growing resentment. Still, she dared not show it.
She simply nodded. "Okay, I understand, Mr. Hawk." Just then, a pleasant ringtone interrupted them-a call from the Hawk family's estate. Stanley pressed a button to answer. Glinda's voice rang out happy as ever. "Stanley, hurry home for dinner! Wendy's joining us!" Stanley's handsome face flickered with a brief change, his brows lifting slightly. "I'll head home now." After hanging up, he turned to Zayn and ordered, "Stop the car." Zayn brought the luxury car to a smooth halt.
