Wendy lowered her slender, graceful eyelashes. “Of course remember. You’re the one who forgot”
Stacey froze
Wendy pushed him away and turned her back on him. “When I wanted to be with you, you didn’t want me. Now that I don’t want to be with you anymore, you’re still clinging to me. Is this your version of love? I don’t love you anymore.
Once again, Wendy told Stanley she didn’t love him anymore.
The corners of Stanley’s eyes turned red, his voice desperate. “That can’t be true. I don’t believe that you really don’t love me anymore!”
Wendy looked at fm, and enunciated each word slowly, “Ifyou didn’t understand what I said earlier, I’ll say it again–I don’t love you anythore. I’ve fallen in love with someone else.”
Stanley clenched his fists, the veins on his hands bulging, “Is it Samuel?”
“Yes, it’s Samuel He treats me well, and I’m carrying his child now. We’re done, Stanley. You’ve been bothering me like this, and it’s making me uncomfortable.”
Wendy-
“The Hawks and Larsons have an engagement, and your mom came to see me. You can’t even handle the business between the two families properly. Do you want me to be dragged into this mess of yours? I’m carrying Samuel’s child. Do you want my baby to be born without a father?”
Stanley choked on his words; he tried to say something, but the overwhelming sense of helplessness made him feel too weak to argue.
“I’ve saved you before–not just that time in the cave, but also when you were in a coma. I’m the one who cured you. I’m not asking for any repayment now. All I want is for you to stay far away from me and not bring me any more trouble. If you truly loved me, then let me go. Let me find happiness.”
If Wendy hadn’t said anything, Stanley would have never let go of her hand.
Now that she had said all this, how could he beg her to stay?
Stanley could only keep clenching his fists, the sudden pain in his chest making it hard for him to breathe.
“This is the last time we’ll ever talk. Don’t come looking for me again. I don’t want Samuel to misunderstand. Don’t disturb my life. Let’s just end it here,” Wendy said firmly.
With that, she turned and walked away.
“Wendy…”
Stanley took a couple of steps forward, but just then, Samuel’s car arrived.
Samuel reached out and pulled Wendy into his arms. “Are you okay? I heard Mrs. Angela came looking for you.”
His eyes were filled with concern.
Wendy shook her head. “I’m fine. She didn’t hurt me.”
Samuel sighed in relief. “Good. Let’s go home.”
He shot a glance at Stanley, then took Wendy and left.

Stanley stood frozen in the same spot, alone. In that moment, he felt like an abandoned child, realizing he had lost Wendy.
He had lost her.
A luxury car was parked by the side of the road, its back window slowly rolling down to reveal Horace’s deep, handsome face.
Horace had been watching all along. He had seen everything–the moment Wendy broke up with Stanley.
“Mr. Larson,” the butler in the front seat said quietly, “I’ve had someone look into it.”
Horace nodded. “Go ahead.”
The butler continued, “Ms. Wendy did save Stanley’s life when they were young, but… Ms. Jessica took credit for that. Later, when anley had his accident and became a vegetable… Ms. Jessica ran off and went abroad. Ms. Wendy married Stanley in her place and became Mrs. Hawk
