The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 175

Wendy found herself puzzled. Why was Stanley looking at her like that?

Jessica was right there beside him, so why wasn’t he looking at her? Lately, it felt like Stanley had been watching her more than usual,

Nathan looked at Wendy. “Wendy, let’s go to that hot spring over there.”

Cecelia covered her mouth, trying to hide her laugh. “Nathan wants to be alone with you, Wendy. Go on, then.”

As she spoke, Cecelia shot Stanley a glance. Noticing his gloomy expression, she felt elated for some reason. Wendy followed Nathan as they walked to a different hot spring. They chatted for a while, but before long, Nathan’s phone rang. He excused himself to take the call.

“Wendy, I’ll be right back. I just need to take this.”

“Alright,” she replied.

Nathan walked off to answer his phone, and Wendy lingered in the water for a bit. She noticed a vendor selling ice cream and, unable to resist the temptation, went over to buy some.

However, when she reached the vendor, he had already left. Without realizing it, Wendy found herself walking deeper into a secluded part of the hot spring.

There, Wendy saw two people–one was a man with a tiger tattoo on his chest, and the other was a woman with a seductive, curvy figure. The woman was sitting on the man’s lap, and they were clearly engaged in an intimate moment. The surrounding water rippled as they moved.

The woman laughed. “Aren’t you afraid someone will see you with your boss’s woman?”

The man, panting heavily, grinned arrogantly. “If anyone sees us, I’ll kill them!”

Wendy hadn’t expected to stumble upon such a scene–she had unwittingly walked in on an affair.

The man, Lionel Chambers, had a tiger tattoo, and he looked like a dangerous figure, someone involved in shady business.

“Wait.” Lionel suddenly snapped, his eyes narrowing in suspicion. His piercing gaze shot straight toward Wendy. Who’s there?”

Wendy’s heart raced. She turned and ran.

Lionel pushed the woman off him and glanced toward his bodyguard, who was nearby. “Someone was here. Go after them.”

Lionel and a few bodyguards quickly started chasing after her.

Wendy didn’t want to get in lved with dangerous people like them, and she tried to escape as quickly as she could. To her horror, she realized she had ended up in a dead–end. She was trapped.

Lionel and his bodyguards were closing in fast. What was she supposed to do?

Wendy nervously backed away, but just then, her back collided with a strong chest.

She looked up in surprise, only to see Stanley’s handsome face looming over her.

Stanley? How did he get here?

He grabbed her slender arm and pulled her behind a large rock. His strong arm gently circled her waist, lifting her effortlessly and placing her on the stone.

“Spread your legs and wrap them around my waist,” he murmured.

Wendy’s heart skipped a beat, and her body tensed in protest. “No!”

Stanley’s eyes darkened as he looked at her with a smirk. “Haven’t you ever wrapped your legs around a man? Stop pretending.”

For some reason, he sounded angry.
