The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167

Wendy froze, unsure of what he meant.”

Wasn’t the ruby necklace meant for Jessica?

Why was he asking if she liked it?

Could it be that he bought two–one for Jessica and one for her?

It wasn’t entirely impossible. He had the money, after all.

Wendy found it almost laughable. No matter his intentions she wasn’t going to keep second–guessing him or chasing after him anymore. That night on the highway had ready settled everything between them–they no longer owed each other.

She put her phone away without replying.”

Just then, Jessica walked over with a bright smile on her face. “Wendy, you’re here too?”

Her mood was clearly great, likely because she’d heard Stanley was giving her a ruby necklace. She was someone who loved luxury, and knowing about that gift had clearly made her day.

Wendy nodded. “Just came by to hang out.”

“Stanley’s planning a trip with me and Sienna to a resort in a couple of days. It’s famous for its hot springs, and we’re going to relax in the baths. You and Nathan should come too!”

Wendy knew Jessica wasn’t being entirely sincere. Ever since Nathan’s birthday party, Jessica had been making

her move.

Wendy met her gaze and smiled slightly. “Sounds good. I have time, anyway.”

After Wendy and Halsey returned to the dorm, Wendy took a quick hot shower. By the time she was done, her phone rang.

It was a call from Stanley.

Her heart skipped a beat as she picked it up, hearing his deep, magnetic voice from the other side. “Come outside.”

He wanted her to come out.

Wendy hesitated for a moment before throwing on a jacket and heading out.

The Rolls–Royce Phantom was parked at the gate, just like last time. As she walked out, she saw him leaning against the expensive car, looking as sharp as ever.

Stanley had returned from his business trip, wearing a black, thin coat over a white shirt and a black business vest. He looked every bit the sophisticated businessman. Students passing by couldn’t help but glance at him, some even turning around to take a second look.

It was said that CEOS like him had a thing for young students, but honestly, how could these fresh–faced girls not be drawn to a wealthy, handsome boss like Stanley?

This was the second time he had parked his car at Clavendale University’s gate. Lately, he had been coming by

more often.

Wendy jogged over. “Hey, Mr. Hawk.”

Stanley straightened up, his gaze falling on her face. “Why didn’t you respond to my text?”

He was referring to the WhatsApp message about whether she liked the necklace.

Wendy decided to lie. “I didn’t see it.”

Stanley’s expression grew slightly colder. Without saying another word, he opened the passenger side door and pulled out a bag, handing it to her. “Here.”

Wendy saw the Alber logo on the bag. Inside was the ruby and diamond necklace.

Right after returning from his trip, he came to give her the necklace.
