Glinda paused for a moment before quickly smiling and saying, “Alright, Wendy. You stay with your friend. When you have some free time, come back and have dinner with me.”

“Sure, Grandma,” Wendy replied.

The two of them ended the call.

Glinda glanced at Stanley, who was still reading the business newspaper, his expression unreadable.

“Stanley, have you fought with Wendy?” Glinda asked.

Stanley didn’t look up from his paper. “No.”

Glinda let out a small laugh. “Do you know Wendy’s friend? Is it a guy or a girl?”

Stanley remained silent.

Glinda reached over and snatched the newspaper from his hands. “You know, you’ve been holding the paper upside down.”

Stanley noticed for the first time that he had been holding the paper wrong. He pressed his lips together briefly. Glinda sighed and stood up. “I know you’ve been with that Jessica for a while, but nobody will wait around forever, Stanley. Wendy will eventually get fed up with waiting, and she’ll leave. She’s great, and you don’t even appreciate her. There are plenty of men out there who would. When Wendy ends up with someone else, don’t come crying to me.”

Just then, Freddy came over. “Mrs. Glinda, has Mrs. Wendy returned? Dinner is ready.”

“Wendy’s not coming back tonight, so I won’t eat,” Glinda replied. With that, she turned and headed upstairs.

Freddy, sensing the odd atmosphere, looked at Stanley and asked, “Mr. Hawk, why isn’t Mrs. Wendy coming home? Since she started school, she hasn’t returned. Mrs. Glinda mentions her every day. The house just isn’t the same without her. Mrs. Glinda hasn’t smiled in days.”

Freddy sighed and left the room.

Stanley sat alone on the couch. He tugged at his tie, his face dark with frustration. He took out his phone and opened WhatsApp.

With his long fingers, he typed a message to Wendy. [Why won’t you come back?]

But before he could send it, he deleted each word, one by one.

It was his fault she was gone. After slapping him, she stayed by Nathan’s side. Of course, she wouldn’t return now. He sighed, thinking he would let the matter go.

Nathan’s wounds were nearly healed now, and he would be discharged soon. That day, Wendy returned to the Clavendale University dormitory.

There was a new student in the dorm, Luna Fisher.

Luna came from a difficult background–her father was an alcoholic and gambler, and she had a younger brother still in school, adding to the financial burden.

Chapter 189

She was a beautiful girl with a pure, innocent appearance. She was studying in the drama department, with dreams of becoming a famous star and earning enough money to change her family’s fate.

She handed Wendy and Halsey a box of pastries. “Wendy, Halsey, my tom made these. My family doesn’t have much money, but my mom makes good pastries. I hope you don’t mind.”
