Halsey pulled Wendy up from the couch. “Wendy, wake up What were you doing? You look completely wiped out.
Wendy rubbed her sleepy eyes and mumbled, “I just want sleep a little longer.”
“Sleep? No way! Get up now. Let’s hit the bar.”
Halsey dragged Wendy to the bar, and before long, they were inside a luxurious private room with a few familiar faces: Jessica, Benny, Sienna, and some rich heirs.
Benny, lounging on the sofa, spoke up. “Jessica, Stanley’s been on a business trip for two days, right? Is he coming back tonight?”
After that night, Stanley left for his trip, and Wendy hadn’t seen him since. Naturally, they hadn’t been in contact either. According to the unspoken agreement, after that night, they owed each other nothing but they had one more secret between them.
Jessica smiled slyly. “Yeah, Stanley’s coming back tonight.“”
“The other night, Mr. Hawk took his car on the highway, right? I heard he was speeding like he was in a race, and the camera caught him, so he got three points deducted. Did you know about this?”
Jessica froze, clearly unaware of the incident.
But Wendy, who was standing outside the room, knew exactly what had happened. That night, she and Stanley had been speeding and doing something else on the highway, and they were caught by the electronic cameras. It had resulted in points being deducted and a fine, a perfect example of what not to do.
It was a lesson for everyone to drive carefully.
“What the heck? Why was Stanley speeding like that? Was he in a bad mood or something?” Benny asked, curious.
Wendy didn’t want to dwell on it. “Halsey, let’s go.”
She tried to pull Halsey away, but at that moment, Sienna suddenly shouted from the other side of the room, ” Jessica, Stanley bought you a gift while he was abroad!”
Jessica’s face lit up with a delighted smile. “What did he get me?”
Sienna replied, “My friend just told me she was at a foreign boutique when Stanley ordered this necklace for you- the ruby and diamond necklace from Alber, the one everyone’s been talking about!”
Jessica’s eyes sparkled. She had been eyeing that ruby and diamond necklace for ages. She couldn’t believe Stanley had actually bought it for her. It was truly a huge surprise!
Benny and the other rich heirs chuckled. “Jessica, no doubt Stanley bought it for you.”
“Mr. Hawk really is romantic, isn’t he? Even when he’s abroad, he still remembers to bring you a gift.”
“Jessica, when Stanley gives you that ruby necklace, you’ve got to show it to me! I haven’t seen anyone else get one of those yet.
Jessica’s smile grew brighter. “You guys are really doubling down on teasing me when Stanley isn’t around, huh?”
Wendy tugged at Halsey again, wanting to leave, but Halsey muttered angrily, “Mr. Hawk really pampers Jessica. He buys her a ruby necklace when he’s abroad. Has he forgotten who’s really Mrs. Hawk?”
The mention of “Mrs. Hawk” struck Wendy like a dagger. She smiled bitterly.

Stanley had never given her a gift. He had bought Jessica a bag before, and Wendy had thought it was for her. She even complimented the bag, saying how pretty it was.
