“Of course not!” Wendy immediately denied, her voice firm “I wasn’t with Mr. Hawk last night!”
As she spoke, Stanley couldn’t help but smirk inwardly. She was so afraid of Nathan finding out they’d been together that she lied to cover up their night.
That little liar.
Nathan glanced at Stanley, a puzzled frown on his face. “Stanley, why aren’t you saying anything?”
Stanley’s handsome features remained emotionless, his eyes cold as ever. “Didn’t she already say everything?”
He decided to go along with her lie.
Wendy, feeling the awkwardness creeping in, quickly tried to exit. “Mr. Hawk, Nathan, you two can talk. I’ll step out for a bit.”
She left the room, leaving the two men alone.
Nathan, clearly annoyed, walked up to Stanley. “Stanley, you need to be more perceptive.”
Stanley raised an eyebrow, giving Nathan a confused look.
Nathan sighed dramatically. “When Wendy and I are together, you should find a way to leave and give us some private time. Got it?”
Stanley’s expression darkened. Wasn’t this his office? It wouldn’t make sense for him to leave.
Stanley’s voice was flat with irritation. “Then you should go.”
Nathan blinked, incredulous. “What’s with that attitude? I’m your best friend! And you’re telling me to leave when I’m trying to get with a girl? Aren’t you supposed to help me out? Besides, you were the one who encouraged me to pursue Wendy in the first place.”
Stanley sighed, not in the mood for this.
Wendy was still his wife, and frankly, he wasn’t too keen on being made a fool of.
He pursed his lips, uninterested. “You’re the expert in love. Is there a woman you can’t get?”
Nathan chuckled. “Wendy’s different. She’s too pure, and I don’t want to scare her off.”
Stanley paused, his thoughts drifting. Pure?
Her face, delicate and flawless, certainly looked innocent like something carved from heaven itself. But Stanley knew the truth. She was the very woman who had kissed him last night, who had pressed herself against him, who had slid her hand beneath his shirt.
His mind flashed back to last night–the tingling sensations that had spread from his spine to the rest of his body, the fiery explosion of pleasure that had consumed him. Just the thought of it made his heart race and his mind lose focus.
Wendy was anything but pure when it came to lovemaking.
She knew exactly what she was doing.
She had an innocent face, but she was also extremely skilled in bed. A woman like her, seemingly sweet on the outside but able to take control in the bedroom? No man could resist that.

Stanley didn’t answer Nathan’s question, lost in thought.
At that moment, Zayn walked in, his voice low as he reported, “Mr. Hawk, Mrs. Hawk left. She’s heading to the media conference.”
What? She was going to the media conference by herself?
Stanley’s lips twisted into a cold smile, his mind racing. She had said she would handle things, and he thought she had a plan to stop the event. Instead, she had gone to the site alone.
