The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 241

Chapter 241

It was clear that Wently had done something to turn the tables and save Cecélia.

Wendy hadn’t yet ended the call when Halsey’s voice came through, already hearing Stanley’s deep tone in the background. “Wendy, where are you and Mr. Hawk right now?“.

“We-”

“I can see Mr. Hawk’s car!”

Suddenly, there was a sharp knocking sound on the car window–Halsey was already outside, knocking on the glass.

Wendy hadn’t expected Halsey to be so close. Though the tinted windows of the expensive black car blocked the view from outside, Halsey’s sudden appearance startled Wendy. She was still sitting in Stanley’s lap, tangled up with him in an intimate embrace.

Just then, Stanley’s deep voice, gravelly and smooth, came through. “Wendy.”

He called her name.

Wendy glanced at him. “What’s wrong?”

“Let go.”

“What?”

Stanley’s gaze dropped, and his eyes darkened as he noticed her legs wrapped tightly around his waist. Startled from earlier, she had instinctively clung to him.

Stanley swallowed hard. “Your legs… Let go. It’s too tight.”

Wendy’s face instantly turned bright red. Mortified, she quickly released him and scrambled back into the passenger seat before opening the door. “Halsey!”

“Wendy!” Halsey beamed as she grabbed Wendy’s hand. “Cecelia’s fine! Let’s hurry to the police station and get her.”

“Okay, let’s take a cab,” Wendy suggested.

“A cab? Why take a cab when we can ride in Mr. Hawk’s car?”

Wendy opened her mouth to protest, but before she could, Halsey had already opened the back door and shoved

her inside.

Halsey turned toward Stanley, who was now driving, and said politely, “Mr. Hawk, could you please take us to the police station?”

Stanley’s desire had already faded, his usual composed and distant demeanor returning. He lowered the window slightly to let the cool evening breeze in, then smoothly started the car and headed for the police station.

“Mr. Hawk, can you believe that Luna changed her mind? She cleared Cecelia and had her released. Aren’t you surprised?”

Halsey seemed particularly bitter toward Stanley, her words sharp.

Stanley’s handsome face remained unreadable, though a hint of surprise flickered in his eyes.

Luna had changed her mind?

Halsey grinned proudly. “It was all thanks to Wendy. Before she came to Hawk Group to find you, she sent Luna a text. That text terrified Luna so much that she immediately dropped the charges on Cecelia.”

A text?

Stanley raised his eyes, catching Wendy’s reflection in the rearview mirror. “What text?”

Wendy met his gaze. “It said, ‘Mr. Hawk told me to go beg him.“”

[Mr. Hawk told me to go beg him.]

Those few words said everything. Luna would have known exactly what they meant the moment she read it.
