The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 55

Chapter 55

Nathan not only didn’t reject Wendy, but he also confessed his feelings for her right in front of Stanley.

Jessica and Trish stood there in shock. “Nathan!”

Had Nathan lost his mind? Was he seriously going to take over his best friend’s unwanted goods?

Stanley’s gaze fell on Wendy and Nathan’s held hands. The temperature around him seemed to drop instantly, and his eyes darkened as he parted his lips to speak to Nathan,

“Of course, you can. You can do whatever you want with her.”

With that, Stanley turned and walked away,

Jessica quickly followed.

Wendy watched him leave, feeling a cold emptiness settle in her chest. Stanley truly was heartless. He had given Nathan permission to pursue her, even letting Nathan do whatever he

wanted with her.

“Wendy, I’ve known Stanley for many years. He and Jessica will never separate,” Nathan said quietly.

Wendy quickly pulled her hand from Nathan’s grasp. “I know.”

Without warning, Nathan stepped closer, pressing her back against the wall, His lips curled into a mischievous grin as he suggested, “So, how about being my girlfriend? I’ll spoil you the same way Stanley spoils Jessica,”

Wendy trembled slightly, not wanting to get entangled with an heir from the Lowe family.

“Nathan, thank you for your kindness, but I’m not worthy. I’m just from the countryside, with no education, no job… I don’t deserve someone like you.”

As she spoke, she pushed him away and ran off. “Goodbye, Nathan.”

Nathan watched her retreating figure, a genuine smile spreading across his face.

This girl was really something. She was definitely his cup of tea!

Stanley stepped out of the bar, where a Rolls–Royce luxury business car was waiting by the curb. Zayn respectfully opened the rear door.

Just then, Jessica ran out after him and threw her arms around him from behind. “Stanley, what’s going on? Why are you being so cold to me?”

Her heart raced. She had no idea why Stanley was acting like this.

Stanley removed her arms and looked at her with a neutral expression. “I need to go back to the company to handle something. You should go

home.”

He climbed into the backseat. Zayn then got into the driver’s seat and started the car, pulling

away.

Jessica stamped her feet in frustration. “Stanley!”

Inside the car, Zayn said quietly, “Mr. Hawk, it seems Mr. Lowe is genuine about Mrs. Hawk…”

Stanley lifted a hand and tugged at the button of his shirt, revealing a glimpse of his finely sculpted collarbone, as though he could only breathe when he did so.

Nathan had surprised him today. Stanley knew how picky Nathan was, yet Nathan had been willing to pursue Wendy.

Stanley’s voice turned icy. “She really knows how to seduce men.”

He remembered how Wendy blushed when Nathan kissed her, the shy, almost hesitant look

on her face. What man could resist that?

He hadn’t been able to resist, either. His body had responded to her more than once.

It wasn’t enough to lure him, so she’d gone after Nathan.

“Mr. Hawk, should we return to the Hawk family estate now?”

“No. We’re going to the company. I’ll be staying there for the next few days.”

He didn’t want to go back and see Wendy.

Stanley lowered the window, letting the cold wind brush against his face. Even now, he still felt an ache between his legs. Was she trying to shatter his manhood?
