He went into the bathroom for a cold shower, then dressed quickly in a black shirt and black trousers. As he walked into his office, he froze.

There was already a beautiful figure in his officeJessica had arrived.

Jessica turned to look at him, a sly smile curling on her red lips. “Stanley, did you just get up?”

It was already 8:00 AM, and Jessica had never seen him sleep in so late before.

Stanley hesitated. He hadn’t expected Jessica to be here so early.

Just then, Zayn hurried into the office. “Mr. Hawk, I just came from the marketing department. I didn’t know Ms. Jessica had already arrived…”

Zayn knew that last night, Stanley had slept in the longue with Wendy, who was now probably still in the bed. Now, Jessica was here. This was awkward.

Would the two women end up fighting over Stanley? Would they start pulling each other’s hair?

Zayn didn’t even dare to look at Stanley’s face.

Jessica, with her sharp intuition, quickly sensed something was off. “What’s going on? Am I not allowed in here?” Her gaze shifted toward the lounge. “Stanley, you didn’t hide some woman in there, did you? Afraid I’d find out?”

She started walking toward the door of the lounge.

But Stanley, his tall frame blocking her path, stood in front of the door to stop her from going inside.

“Stanley, why won’t you let me in? I called you so many times last night, but you didn’t answer. And now, you’re up this late. Were you sleeping with someone else?”

Faced with Jessica’s accusation, Stanley frowned slightly. He parted his lips, his deep, smooth voice steady and unflustered. “Jessica, please leave.”

Was he telling her to leave? Why should she?

She was determined to find out who was hiding in the lounge!

Jessica pushed against Stanley with all her strength, and shoved the door open.

Zayn was silently panicking, thinking this was the end.

Jessica stormed into the room, but then froze almost immediately.

Stanley followed her inside, his gaze moving toward the bed. The large bed was now empty. Wendy was nowhere to be seen.

Wendy, who had been sleeping there just moments ago, was gone.

The lounge was completely empty.

Zayn felt confused, too. Where had Wendy gone?

But with the tension easing, he quickly stepped in to smooth things over. “Ms. Jessica, you’ve misunderstood Mr. Hawk. He worked late last night and has a meeting soon…‘”
