Chapter 240
Wendy’s small face was flushed with a deep crimson as she bit his tongue,
The sudden sharp pain made Stanley pull back, and Wendy look deep, desperate breaths. Her small, delicate eyelashes fluttered, trembling with a soft, frantic vulnerability that was almost too endearing
Stanley reached out and grasped her chin, forcing her to til her head back and meet his gaze.
“Wendy,” he growled, his voice hoarse, “you’re bogging me now. If you bite me again, you can forget about seeing your friend. Understand?”
His tone was low, and threatening, his position of power clear as he loomed over her.
Wendy met his eyes, hesitating for a moment before reluctantly agreeing, “I understand.“.
Stanley’s hand reached for the condom on the passenger seat.
Just then, Wendy pushed him back, taking control of the situation. “Why should it only be you undressing me? I want to undress you, too.”
She reached for his suit jacket buttons with urgency.
Her movements were too quick, and when she couldn’t get them undone, she simply yanked at them.
Stanley’s head rested against the seat as he let out a low groan, his eyes narrowing as he quietly stopped her. ” Slow down. Don’t rip my buttons. I don’t have spare clothes in the car.”
His jacket was tightly fastened, and Wendy couldn’t pull it apart. She gave up on fighting with the buttons and instead slid her hand inside his jacket, brushing against his toned, narrow waist and feeling the hard muscle of his abs beneath his shirt.
Stanley’s throat tightened, his body burning with desire as he felt her touch.
He immediately pulled her lithe body against his chest. “Why are you so eager?”
Wendy’s face turned a deep shade of red, but she didn’t speak.
Stanley’s lips found hers once more, pressing against her with a fierceness that seemed to take control of her entirely.
This time, Wendy didn’t fight him. Instead, she ‘subtly reached for the needle hidden in her waist, aiming to press it into his pressure points.
Unfortunately, she failed.
Stanley’s hand shot out, grabbing her wrist in a firm hold. “What are you trying to do?”
Damn it, caught again.
Every time she tried to surprise him, it ended in failure.
This man was just too alert.
Stanley had spent years in the military, and his instinct for danger was sharp. There was no way Wendy was able to sneak up on him.
“What is this?”
Stanley’s gaze fell on the needle in Wendy’s hand. His expression darkened as he immediately snatched it away.

Chapter 240
Wendy immediately reached out to grab it back. “It’s mine! Give it back!”
Stanley’s face paled. He had seen this needle before.
In that dream.
In that wet dream, Wendy had had the same needle. She had been lying beneath him, just like now, trying to use the needle to attack him.
But he had caught her.
Stanley threw the needle onto the carpet, a grim realization dawning on him.
He had always thought it was just a dream. But now, Wendy really had the needle.
A flicker of something passed through his eyes. He suddenly considered a new possibility.
Could it be that night wasn’t a dream at all? Could the woman in his arms that night have really been Wendy? Before Wendy could reach for the needle again, the ringtone of a phone echoed through the car.
It was a call from Halsey.
“Wendy, good news! Just as you predicted, Luna rescinded her statement. She proved Cecelia’s innocence, and she’s been released!” Halsey’s excited voice came through the phone.
Wendy’s lips curled into a smile as she let out a relieved breath. She had finally saved Cecelia
She turned her gaze back to Stanley. “Mr. Hawk, Cecelia has been exonerated. I no longer need to ask anything of you. Our deal is over.”
Her clear, intelligent eyes shone with an inner light, a spark that caught Stanley’s attention. He stared at her, his curiosity piqued. “What did you do?”
