Jake stared at Wendy his eyes lighting up in surprise. “And where did you come from, pretty girl? You look like an angel.”
Luna, frightened, hid behind Wendy. “This is my classmate. Mr. Silva, we’re students. We’re not selling our bodies. Please, leave us alone…”
“Students, huh? That’s even better. I love schoolgirls,” Jake said with a lecherous grin, eyeing Wendy hungrily. Since you’re classmates, you two can serve me tonight,”
With a wave of his hand, Jake instructed his bodyguards dressed in black, “Take them both away.”
Wendy quickly stepped in front of the trembling Luna, her gaze cold as she stared at Jake. “Kidnapping someone in broad daylight? Don’t you realize this is illegal?”
“Illegal?” Jake burst out laughing, his tone full of arrogance. “In Hovendale, I’m a big shot. I dine with Mr. Hawk, the wealthiest man in town, and you’re telling me about the law?”
Jake brought up Stanley, the wealthiest man in Hovendale,
Wendy hadn’t heard from Stanley in days, but everyone in Hovendale knew Stanley held immense power in the city.
“What are you all standing around for? Get them now!” Jake demanded impatiently. 1
Two black–clad bodyguards moved toward them.
Luna clutched Wendy’s arm, her voice shaky. “Wendy, what should we do?”
As one of the bodyguards reached for Wendy, she narrowed her eyes and snapped sharply, “How dare you!”
Turning her cold gaze toward Jake, she added, “Try to touch us and see what happens. Do you even know who I am?”
Feeling the powerful aura emitting from Wendy, Jake froze, confused. “Who are you?”
Wendy’s voice was icy as she uttered each word clearly, “I am Stanley Hawk’s wife, Mrs. Hawk.”
Jake’s eyes widened in disbelief. “You’re Mrs. Hawk?”
“That’s right. If you even lay a finger on us, Stanley won’t spare you!”
Jake seemed skeptical, but just as he was about to respond, a voice came from behind them. “Mr. Hawk, this way, please.”
Wendy looked up and saw a group of people approaching, led by none other than Stanley himself.
Stanley was here!
Dressed in a perfectly tailored black suit, Stanley walked with confidence and elegance, his presence commanding the attention of everyone in the room. The golden champagne lights from the hallway illuminated his striking face, adding a touch of brilliance to his already mesmerizing appearance.
Wendy’s heart skipped a beat. She hadn’t expected the world to be so small. Stanley had actually come after she brought him up.
The hotel manager stepped forward respectfully. “Mr. Hawk, please follow me. Your private room is just ahead.”
Behind him, the other businessmen chatted amongst themselves while Stanley listened, occasionally nodding as

he walked toward Wendy.
Jake, sensing an opportunity, stepped forward with a bright smile plastered on his face. “Mr. Hawk, hello,”
Stanley looked up at him, his expression cool and indifferent. “Hello, Mr. Silva.”
“Mr. Hawk, I didn’t mean to interrupt, but I have a female student here. Do you recognize her?” Jake said, pointing at Wendy.
Wendy lifted her eyes, and their gazes met. Stanley’s dark, cold eyes locked onto hers, sending a shiver down her spine. The businessmen behind him all turned their attention to her as well.
Wendy’s fingers curled slightly. She had only mentioned Stanley’s name to try and get out of this situation; she never expected him to actually show up.
The night at the hospital, when she slapped him, had severed their ties. Now Jake was asking if Stanley knew her –what would he say?
Wendy felt a wave of embarrassment and discomfort.
Stanley’s face remained impassive as his deep, magnetic voice rang out.
“I don’t know her.”
