“Ms. Jolin,” Wendy’s assistant said, “it’s time to head inside the venue.”
Wendy glanced at Stanley from the balcony, then quickly averted her gaze and turned to her assistant. “Let’s go.”
She and her assistant began to walk toward the exit. Just as she took a few steps forward,
her movement halted.
Two people were blocking her path–Jessica and Sienna.

While Stanley had failed to find Wendy, Jessica and Sienna had spotted her.
Jessica and Sienna stared at her in shock. “Wendy?!”
Reuniting with an old acquaintance, Wendy’s lips curled into a faint, polite smile. “Jessica,
Sienna, it’s been a while.”
Jessica, unable to believe her eyes, stammered, “W–What are you doing here in the Capital? And at the Zenith Gala, no less?”
Wendy raised an eyebrow, a playful gleam in her eyes. “Why? Can’t I be here?”
“I can’t believe you’ve come to the Capital! You shouldn’t even be here,” Sienna said, her tone filled with arrogance. “Right now, Jessica’s the daughter of the richest man. The Capital belongs to her!”
Jessica looked at Wendy with an air of superiority. “Why didn’t you let me know you were coming to the Capital? I could’ve shown you around.”
Wendy shook her head slightly. “No need for that. I’m just here to attend the Zenith Gala.”
“Really?” Jessica was taken aback. “What makes you think you’re qualified to be here? Is it your identity as Dr. Ceylan?”
Sienna sneered, looking Wendy up and down. “Do you even know who’s been invited to this

event? It’s a gathering of the wealthiest tycoons and top power brokers! Even if you’re Dr. Ceylan, your wealth hasn’t reached that level. You’re not welcome here.”
Jessica smirked as she pulled out an invitation. “See this? It’s my invitation. My father couldn’t come, so I’m representing him. And, of course, Stanley is here too.
“Listen,” she continued, her voice dripping with disdain, “you don’t belong here. Just leave before things get worse for you.”
Wendy’s assistant, unable to hold back any longer, fired back angrily, “Don’t you know—”
But before her assistant could finish, a deep, magnetic voice interrupted.
“Wendy!”

Wendy looked up, and her eyes widened when she saw Stanley approaching.
Stanley had been searching for Wendy downstairs. The moment he looked up, he spotted her. Without hesitation, he rushed toward her.
Seeing Wendy standing there in front of him, Stanley moved forward instantly. “Is it really you?”
Wendy’s clear, bright eyes locked with Stanley’s handsome face. She gave a small, teasing
smile. “Mr. Hawk, hello.”
Stanley wrapped his arms around Wendy, pulling her into a tight embrace. He held her fragile, delicate form against him, his voice thick with emotion. “I’ve finally found you! Where have you been all this time? I’ve been looking for you for three whole years!”
Watching Stanley hug Wendy, Jessica clenched her teeth, furious enough to almost grind
them to dust.
Wendy, feeling his familiar scent–fresh and clean–was momentarily overwhelmed by the sensation. It had been so long.
She gently pushed Stanley away, her voice cool and distant. “Mr. Hawk, I don’t think we’re

close enough for hugs just yet.”
Stanley froze, his eyes taking in the coldness in Wendy’s expression.

Jessica, seizing the moment, spoke up. “Stanley, for the past three years, Wendy must have been with Samuel. Maybe they’re even married now!”
Sienna nodded. “She’s right. Don’t let Wendy fool you. She said she’s here for the Zenith Gala.”
Stanley’s eyes turned to Wendy, a flicker of confusion in his gaze. “Is that true?”
Wendy nodded. “Yes.”
Jessica jumped in again. “The Zenith Gala is filled with powerful elites. Wendy must be trying to sneak her way in! I was planning to have her removed.”
