Lilian stood frozen her eyes wide in disbelief In her life she never thought she d see the world s wealthiest man Horace and the rising business star Stanley both holding on to the same woman
The two of them were on the verge of a physical fight over Wendy
Lilian realized wh ht was going on Stanley must have misunderstood he thought Horace had feelings for Wendy In truth the age difference between Wendy and Jessica was no issue at all Men of Horace s status and wealth could have women like Wendy and Jessica throwing themselves at him
Yet Horace was Wendy s father
Lilian felt like her world had been turned upside down
Wendy who had been caught in the middle felt even dizzier Did the set women ever stop to consider her feelings
She struggled and said Let go of me
Stanley glared at Horace Uncle Horace did you hear that Wendy asked you to let go
Horace responded calmly I think she wants you to let go
Stanley snapped What
Wendy her voice firm cut them off Let go both of you
Reluctantly,Stanleyglancedat Horace.”She’stellingusbothtoletgo.I’llcounttothree,andthenwe’llletgo.”
Horace didn t argue and simply agreed
Stanley began One two three
At the same moment Stanley and Horace both released Wendy
Wendy wavered her legs giving way beneath her
Stanley was quick to step forward catching her in his arms Wendy what s wrong
I m dizzy Wendy murmured
Without hesitation Stanley lifted Wendy in his arms and said I ll take you somewhere to rest
Stanley carried her out of the room
Horace watching from behind called out Wendy can t leave
The butler immediately responded Mr Hawk please let Ms Wendy rest in this room
Stanley carried Wendy into the room gently laying her down on the soft bed Let me get you some water
He poured a glass of water for her

After resting for a moment Wendy said Thanks I m fine It s just the dizziness from being pregnant
Stanley studiedherwithaconcernedlook.”What’syourrelationshipwithMr.Larson?”
Wendy looked up at Stanley confused What do you mean
Is a whim holding you earlier Stanley replied his voice dripping with jealousy
Wendywas takenaback.”Whatareyouthinking?Iwasjustlizzy,andhehelpedmeoutforamoment!”
Wendy genuinely didn t understand why Stanley was jumping to conclusions
Stanley however was feeling the pressure Wendy was surrounded by men one after another and who knew what kind of intentions Horace might have had
Stanley couldn the lp but voice his doubts He helped you out for a moment I don t know him as a kind man He scold and distant with everyone
Stanley was familiar with Horace Eventhough Horace hadn t interacted much with Wendy Stanley could sense that something was different Horace treated Wendy in away that felt unique
Before Wendy could respond a warm voice came from the door
I m standing right here Were you talking badly about me
Horacehadfollowedthemintotheroomandstoodin thedoorway.
Stanley shot him a glare his expression full of hostility He looked at Horace the way one would eye a rival
