Losing Stanley hurt more than Wendy had ever expected
She couldn t even explain what it was about him that made her feel this way He was never kind to her at all And yet everyone has that one person in their life they love someone who might not deserve it but still holds a place in your heart
ShelovedStanley.
Herfingerstightlygripped thecrystalpendanthehadgiven her,theonesheknewshewouldneverletgoof.Butdeepdown,sheunderstood–shehadlosthim.
She had lost her Big Brother
At that very moment Stanley satin his Rolls Royce Phantom parked by the side of the road Through the gleaming windshield he watched Wendy huddled in on herself crouched on the street sobbing uncontrollably
A red haze slowly crept into his dark eyes and his grip on the steering wheel tightened Something stung his heart a pain that wasn t sharp but spread in waves dense and suffocating
Then his phone rang It was Jessica
“Stanley,haveyoudivorced Wendy?”sheaskedcheerfully.
Stanley s voice came out hoarse his gaze still locked on Wendy Yes
“Great!Thenhurryupandcomebacktothehospital.Iwantto seeyourdivorcepapersinperson.”
With a satisfied tone Jessica ended the call
Stanley blinked and the red in his eyes faded leaving behind a cold detachment He and Wendy were done now It
wasover.
They were as good as strangers
The woman he loved the one he was going to take care of was Jessica
With that Stanley hit the accelerator and the luxury car roared to life speeding off toward the hospital
Wendy returned to the girls dormitory She had barely opened the door when she was greeted by a spray of confetti from Halsey and Cecelia
Congratulations Wendy Did you goon another date with Mr Hawk

Wendy what happened Why did you suddenly get divorced Hey Wendy
Wendy s vision blurred and she fainted collapsing to the floor She was delirious with a high fever her body heating up to 107 F She felt cold one moment and burning the next
Divorcing Stanley had brought her down with a serious illness
Jessica had been in the hospital for a week and her wrist was almost healed Stanley and Lilian had stayed with her taking care of her so she recovered quickly
One day Trish came by to visit carrying a fruit basket Jessica when will you be discharged
Jessica s complexion had already regained some color and she smiled as she answered I ll be out tomorrow Stanley handed her a peeled apple This whole week Z ayn had brought files to the hospital and Stanley had worked from her room never leaving her side
Jessica took a bite of the apple savoring the sweetness of the moment
Trish turned to Stanley Mr Hawk I heard you and Wendy are divorced now
Jessica smiled brightly Yes they are Wendy is no longer Mrs Hawk
The second and third branches of the family were always intertwined when one succeeded the other followed and when one suffered so did the other Plus Trish had never liked Wendy so she was happy for Jessica
Trish chuckled I heard that after the divorce Wendy got really sick She hasn t been to class for a week
