The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 153

Chapter 153

Stanley knew Wendy was fast, but he never imagined she could be this fast.

He’d never come across a real challenge in a game until now–Wendy was the one to give him a run for his money.

It was completely unexpected for him.

Benny, sensing something was off, panicked. “What the hell, Stanley? Wendy can actually keep up with you. Stay focused! If I lose this round, I’ll drop from champion to bronze!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Zayn walked into the room “Mr. Hawk, there’s a call from the family estate…”

The family estate? What had happened?

Stanley’s attention wavered.

And in that second–game over.

His fingers froze mid–air. He lost.

While Stanley was distracted, Wendy took advantage, bringing her axe down hard and knocking him flat.

He lost…to Wendy!

Stanley had only wanted to teach her a small lesson, to make her cry…but this?

Benny’s voice suddenly erupted in disbelief. “What?! Stanley, you lost? Oh my god! I’ve dropped to bronze! Noooo ……”

It had taken Benny three years to reach the champion rank, but with just a few matches against Wendy, it was all

gone.

Why? Why had this happened?

Benny felt like his heart had been ripped out.

Stanley, however, was oddly calm, though he couldn’t help but find the whole thing a bit funny. He pressed his tongue to the inside of his cheek and chuckled softly.

Wendy had truly surprised him.

He glanced up at Zayn. “What’s going on at Grandma’s?”

“Mr. Hawk, the family estate called and said the herbal recipe Mrs. Hawk gave to Mrs. Glinda is missing. Mrs. Glinda is asking if you can get another copy from Mrs. Hawk.”

So Glinda was fine, but it seemed the herbal recipe Wendy had left behind was the issue.

Stanley pulled out his phone and immediately opened his WhatsApp. He dialed Wendy for a video call.

In the girls‘ dorm, Wendy had just won the game, but she knew it wasn’t due to her skill. Her opponent, Benny, had seemed to suddenly level up, as if he had ascended to a new realm of power. She was a little stunned by how strong he had became.

She hadn’t been able to beat him fairly until—she wasn’t sure if it was a lag or some glitch–but he made a mistake, and she took advantage of the opening. That was when she landed the final blow.

In truth, Wendy knew she would never have beaten him if they had played with real skill.

Why had Benny been so strong all of a sudden?

As she puzzled over it, her phone rang. It was a video call from Stanley.

Why was he calling her?
