Stanley looked up and saw Wendy.
Wendy had come to NovaHealth’s hospital.
At that moment, his arm was tightly wrapped by Jessica, who clung to him. “Why is Wendy here? Stanley, I don’t want to see her. Every time I do, my heart hurts.”
Stanley turned his gaze away from Wendy and gently pulled his arm out of Jessica’s grasp. “Let’s go, then. I’ll drive.“”
With that, Stanley walked out.
After they returned, Jessica stayed close to Stanley, always seeking his attention. Stanley didn’t refuse her, and he stopped reaching out to Wendy.
But Jessica could feel the shift. Stanley, who once seemed so affectionate, now felt distant -almost like there was no love left, only duty.
Her fists clenched in frustration the more she thought about it.
Wendy made her way to NovaHealth and found Samuel.
Samuel smiled as he looked her over. “You’ve lost weight. Looks like after leaving your grandfather and us, you’ve been tasting the bitter side of love here.”
Wendy shot Samuel a glare. She knew he would tease her–he had never held back his
sharp tongue.
Wendy sighed. “If that’s all you want to say, I’ll leave now.”
Samuel immediately stopped her. “This is for you.”
He handed her a property deed.

“Your genius identity is out in the open now. Are you really going to keep staying in the dorms? This is a house I got for you.”
Wendy knew it was time to move out, but Halsey was still living in the dorm. Well, she
could always visit.
She took the deed from Samuel.
Samuel pulled out a set of car keys. “This is for you as well–it’s a car.”
Wendy couldn’t believe it. Samuel was offering her a house and a car in one go!
She took the keys. “Thanks.”
“You’re welcome. So, when do you plan on going back? You and Mr. Hawk are divorced
now.”
Samuel had come to talk to Wendy about leaving Hovendale.
Wendy hesitated. “I still have unfinished business in Hovendale. Once I’ve dealt with that,
I’ll head back.”
“Are you talking about the Crone family?”
Wendy nodded. “Yes.”
Samuel nodded in return. “Alright. I’ll stay in Hovendale for a while.”
“Okay. Keep in touch.”
Wendy said her goodbyes to Samuel and prepared to head to her new home.
As she stepped outside the hospital, she saw Jessica, Trish, and Natalie standing by, waiting for a ride.
A Rolls–Royce Phantom soon pulled up. Stanley had arrived in his car.

Stanley stayed in the car, looking at Jessica. “Get in.”
Then, his eyes landed on Wendy, who was standing just behind Jessica. Their two pairs of eyes locking in silent recognition.

gazes met-
Jessica followed Stanley’s gaze and saw Wendy. She immediately sneered. “Wendy, you really are relentless! What are you doing? Following us now, are you?”
“Following?” Wendy smirked, her lips curling into a playful smile. “Being delusional is a disease. You’re at a hospital, so go in and get it checked out.”
“Cut the act! We keep running into each other; that can’t all be a coincidence. You’re still obsessed with Stanley, aren’t you? That’s why you’re following us!”

Trish immediately chimed in. “You and Mr. Hawk are divorced, Wendy. He doesn’t want you anymore! Stop clinging to him like a pest.”
Lilian eyed Wendy. She had been taken aback to discover Wendy’s identity as the ‘genius girl‘, but that didn’t mean much in the grand scheme of things.
Lilian smiled.
“Wendy, I didn’t expect you to be a genius, but after graduating, you didn’t even bother with a career. You got married and became a housewife. And now that you’re divorced, you have nothing left. Stop obsessing over Mr. Hawk and Jessica. You should focus on getting a job. Financial independence is really important for a
woman.
