The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 425

Chapter 425

On the other side, Stanley pulled Wendy out of the bar, his long strides quick and confident. Wendy could barely keep up, stumbling behind him.

Wendy frowned. “Stanley, let go of me!“.

Stanley opened the door of his luxury car and shoved her into the passenger seat before he slid into the driver’s

seat.

The Rolls–Royce Phantom sped down the road, the city’s neon lights casting a glow on the sleek car.

Wendy raised an eyebrow. “Did you finish dinner already? Was the lady’s dance not enough to keep you around?”

Stanley’s sudden appearance at the bar had caught Wendy off guard, especially since she had just seen him watching a group of beautiful dancers moments ago.

His hand, adorned with an expensive watch, rested on the steering wheel. The city’s lights reflected off his sharp, handsome face, making him look both refined and striking

“You saw me?” he asked, his voice smooth.

Wendy nodded. “Yeah. Your charm seems endless. Everywhere, there’s someone falling for you.”

Stanley’s lips curved into a small, amused smile. “That’s rich, coming from you. Didn’t you also go to the male stripper bar? Was it fun? If I had shown up a little later, would you have swiped my card to spend some time with a few strippers?”

Wendy just stared at him, speechless. That sharp tongue of his…!

Worried about Halsey, she took out her phone and dialed her number.

But the phone just kept ringing, and no one picked up.

What could Halsey be doing?

Stanley’s deep voice cut through the silence. “Is Halsey with Dwight?”

Wendy nodded. “I think so.”

Stanley’s tone remained calm, with no sign of surprise. He simply said, “Tell Halsey to stay away from him.”

Wendy glanced at him. “Don’t underestimate him. Are you looking down on him? He has lots of potential. There’s a story behind him.”

Stanley’s lips quirked up slightly. “I’m not looking down on him. Dwight comes from a different world than ours or Halsey’s. They’re not likely to have a future together. When you know something won’t work out, it’s better to make sure there’s no feelings involved.”

Stanley made his analysis, and while Wendy agreed with him in a way, she couldn’t help but think of Dwight as a wild stallion–untamed and free. Sooner or later, he would soar in a domain he excelled in.

Wendy lowered Her gaze. “That may be true, but you can’t stop love.”

At first, she had known there was no future for her and Stanley, but she still married him.

Stanley didn’t respond. Thirty minutes later, the Rolls–Royce Phantom pulled up to Royale Residences.

The rain was pouring down, and without an umbrella, Stanley and Wendy ran to the apartment building, both getting soaked.

Wendy entered the building and scanned her fingerprint to unlock the door. “Thanks for the ride. I’ll see you around.”
