What did he just say?>
Wendy’s eyes widened in shock. He had gotten Luna pregnant, and was still saying things like that to her?
Shame and fury swelled inside her, and she spat at him, “You’re despicable!”
Stanley looked down at her with those sharp, striking eyes. Wendy’s long, silky black hair was messily spread out on the couch, her delicate face framed by eyes that were as clear as day, staring at him with a mix of anger and hurt. The sight was almost identical to the one in his dreams.
At that moment, all his memories came rushing back.
Stanley’s lips curled into a faint smile. “Why call me that? What exactly makes me despicable? Tell me.” Though she had sharp words, Wendy was still awkward when it came to insults. Her voice, soft and weak, could only manage a few words like “annoying” or “despicable” it was almost childlike.
Wendy glared at him. “What do you want from me? If you ever try to find me again, I’ll tell Luna. She’s carrying
my hand.” your child, and she can’t handle stress. You’d better not forge
Her mentioning Luna made Stanley’s eyes flash with a cold cutting sharpness. Since Luna had dared to trick him, he was adamant about making her regret it tomorrow.
“Wendy, are you angry? Is it because of Luna? Because she’s pregnant?” Stanley’s voice was low, his words almost testing her.
Wendy’s face turned pale and flushed in quick succession. Anger, shame, and sadness all washed over her. She straightened up suddenly and, without thinking, bit down on his Adam’s apple.

That was a sensitive, vulnerable spot for men, and Stanley winced in pain. His long, sharp eyes turned bloodshot as he sat up. He then reached out to pull Wendy into his arms and sit her on his lap.
He was dressed in a classic white shirt and black pants, a perfect example of a polished, handsome businessman.
Wendy, on the other hand, was in a white sweater and a black pleated skirt–she looked every bit the innocent college girl.
But at that moment, as Stanley held her, it almost felt as though a successful businessman was cradling a pretty student, the contrast strikingly obvious.
“Mr….”
The housekeeper, holding a tea tray, walked out of the kitchen, but her words faltered when she saw the scene in the living room.
The older maids at Imperial Garden were quick to blush when seeing Stanley holding Wendy like that. They immediately turned around and returned to the kitchen, unwilling to watch any further.
Stanley’s long fingers ran through Wendy’s hair, gently cupping the back of her head.
She still hadn’t let go of his throat, and in a soft voice, he whispered, “Wendy, I’m sorry.” His lips brushed against her ear as he apologized, his voice low and hoarse.
Wendy froze. Slowly, she let go of him.
A small, delicate bite mark appeared on his throat–a reminder of her fierce nature.

She really did like to bite.
There were already so many marks of hers on him.
“I won’t accept your apology!” Wendy pushed him away and tried to stand up.
But Stanley’s strong arm reached out, pulling her back onto his lap. He held her tightly from behind, burying his handsome face in her long, dark hair again. He whispered once more, “Wendy, I’m sorry.”
Wendy had no idea what he was trying to do. Was he playing the carrot or stick approach?
She didn’t want that.
“Let me go! Don’t touch me! Go find Luna!” She struggled, trying to pry his fingers off her.
Stanley’s lips tightened. “Luna and I didn’t-

He began to explain, but before he could finish, a loud knock echoed from the door.
Halsey and Cecelia had followed them here. They were shouting from the other side of the door, “Let Wendy out now!”
Stanley’s brows furrowed in irritation.
Wendy took this opportunity to push him off forcefully and scrambled to her feet. Without another word, she ran toward the door..
