Wendy rushed back to the girls‘ dorm and found Halsey sitting on her bed, nursing an injured ankle.
“Wendy, I’m fine. I just twisted my ankle while walking today. It’s swollen, but I applied some ointinent, and it’ll heal soon. I don’t know why Luma told you to come back because of this. It’s nothing major.”
So Halsey had just sprained her ankle.
Luna’s phone call had been so urgent, saying that something had happened to Halsey, but she hadn’t clarified what. Wendy had been scared out of her wits.
“Just rest here. Don’t walk around too much,” Wendy said, inspecting Halsey’s swollen ankle.
“Got it.”
After confirming that it wasn’t serious, Wendy finally relaxed. Wendy grabbed her pajamas and went into the bathroom for a hot shower.
Her body ached all over. And there were the marks from Stanley–hickeys from last night–dotted across her skin.
As she stood under the hot water, her mind wandered back to last night. His eyes were fixed on her, intense and fiery, never leaving her for a second.
She could almost feel the weight of his gaze, hot and penetrating.
She had tried to cover his eyes with her hand, playfully saying, “Don’t look at me.”
But he removed her hand and kissed her instead, murmuring, “Wendy, you’re so beautiful.”
She had melted completely in his embrace, in the heat of his kiss.
Wendy blinked her eyes shut, quickly shaking those vivid, seductive images from her mind.
He should be awake by now, right? She had left before he woke up. Would he come looking for her?
After finishing her shower, Wendy climbed into bed, too exhausted to stay awake. She quickly drifted off into a much–needed nap.
By the time she woke up, it was already afternoon. She opened her eyes and checked her phone.
There was nothing. No calls. No messages. Absolutely nothing from Stanley.
A faint sense of disappointment clouded Wendy’s bright eyes.
She sighed before getting out of bed. Just then, there was a knock at the door.
Halsey answered it, and standing outside were a few unfamiliar people. “Who are you?” Halsey asked, confused.
“We’re here to help Luna move out,” one of them said.
“Move out?” Wendy and Halsey exchanged surprised looks. “Where is she moving to?”
“Luna won’t be staying here anymore. She’s moving to Lux Villas.”
Lux Villas?
That was Hovendale’s luxury district–high–end and exclusive. Many famous celebrities lived there.
Halsey looked stunned. “Are you sure you’ve got the right place?”

“We’re sure. Luna signed with an entertainment company, and Yolanda Miller will be managing her from now on.
Yolanda Miller? The renowned celebrity manager, known for nurturing mega–successful stars?
The group walked in, carrying only Luna’s identification and a few books. Everything else was discarded without a second thought, tossed straight into the trash.
Halsey stood frozen, trying to process what had just happened. “Wendy, what’s going on with Luna? How did she suddenly become so successful?”
They both knew Luna’s background well. Yesterday, she was still working multiple jobs just to get by, and today, she was moving into a luxurious neighborhood, about to be personally mentored by Yolanda.
It was like a fairytale transformation–almost too good to be true.
The strangest thing was, Luna hadn’t even come to collect her things. She had sent these people to do it for her. Halsey had a blank expression, unable to understand.
Wendy watched the group leave, furrowing her brow. “I’m not sure what happened with Luna, but those people definitely look like they know what they’re doing. We don’t need to worry. She’s probably doing better now.” Halsey nodded. “Yeah, we all hope the best for her.”
Luna had worked so hard, struggling with her humble background. She had been constantly feeling inferior and walking on eggshells. Wendy and Halsey had always seen it they truly wanted to help her, hoping for nothing but the best for Luna.
