Chapter 119
Jessica asked Stanley for a kiss
Stanley s eyes lingered on Jessica s delicate rosy face Compared to Wendy s small delicate features Jessica s was a vision of youthful allure soft and inviting Where Wendy seemed to always frustrate him and leave him annoyed Jessica was a breath of fresh air graceful and easy to be around

Meanwhile Wendy and Halsey had a drink or two and spent a little time at the bar before deciding to head home They stepped out on to the bustling street hoping to grab a taxi
However the area was busy and there weren t many taxis passing by
Wendy thought of an idea Halsey how about we just rent a bike and ride back
Halsey raised an eyebrow No need Wendy I ll just call my cousin and have him send a car over
Cousin Halsey you have a cousin Wendy asked intrigued
Halsey gave a mysterious wink Yep
Well I think it s fine It s getting pretty late No need to bother your cousin
But Halsey had already pulled out her phone and dialed My cousin is out with his mistress right now so I might as well give him something to do
Wendywas shocked.”Yourcousinhasamistress?”
Yep He s married but doesn t like his wife Instead he s out there with some shameless mistress He s nothing but a scumbag
Wendy couldn t believe what she was hearing Halsey had a scumbag cousin
But the more she thought about it the more it seemed familiar the story of that unlucky wife seemed eerily similar to her own Maybe they were both just women caught in the same unfortunate situation
Back in the luxurious lounge Stanley had moved even closer to Jessica and they were about to kiss
Jessica could smell his sophisticated cool scent faintly tinged with alcohol Her whole body softened under his
presence.
Her arms wrapped tightly around his neck waiting for the kiss she was sure was coming
But instead of the kiss she heard Stanley slow rich voice Your lipstick is smudged
What?
Jessica s eyes flew open in surprise

Jessica stood up frustrated and took out a small mirror from her Chanel bag She realized that while she had been touching up her lipstick earlier she had applied it too heavily causing it to smudge at the corners of her lips

After hanging up Stanley suddenly tensed up his toned body when he felt Jessica hugging him from behind Her hands wandered around his body relishing his tight muscles It was obvious she wanted to pickup where they had left off
However Stanley gently removed her hand from his body He looked at her his expression cool I ll take a rain check I need to head back to the company I ll have someone take you home
Jessica s face paled Though she didn t want to admit it she couldn the lp but feel disappointed However Stanley s expression had already turned cold and distant He clearly wasn t interested anymore
