He d never come across a real challenge in a game until now Wendy was the one to give him a run for his money
It was completely unexpected for him
Benny sensing something was off panicked What the hell Stanley Wendy can actually keep up with you Stay focused If I lose this round I ll drop from champion to bronze
As soon as he finished speaking Z ayn walked into the room Mr Hawk there s a call from the family estate

Stanley s attention wavered
And in that second game over
His fingers froze mid air He lost

Stanleyhadonlywantedtoteachherasmalllesson,tomakehercry…but this?
Benny s voice suddenly erupted in disbelief What Stanley you lost Oh my god I ve dropped to bronze No ooo
It had taken Benny three years to reach the champion rank but with just a few matches against Wendy it was all
gone.
Why Why had this happened
Benny felt like his heart had been ripped out
Stanley,however,wasoddlycalm,thoughhecouldn’thelpbutfindthe wholethingabitfunny.Hepressedhistonguetothe insideofhischeekandchuckledsoftly.
Wendy had truly surprised him
He glanced up atZ ayn What s going on at Grandma s
Mr Hawk the family estate called and said the herbal recipe Mrs Hawk gave to Mrs Glinda is missing Mrs Glinda is asking if you can get another copy from Mrs Hawk
So Glinda was fine but it seemed the herbal recipe Wendy had left behind was the issue
Stanley pulled out his phone and immediately opened his What s App He dialed Wendy for a video call

She hadn t been able to beat him fairly until she wasn t sure if it was a lag or some glitch but he made a mistake and she took advantage of the opening That was when she landed the final blow
In truth Wendy knew she would never have beaten him if they had played with real skill

Why had Benny been so strong all of a sudden
As she puzzled over it her phone rang It was a video call from Stanley
Whywashecallingher?
Wendy tapped the screen to answer and there he was Stanley
He was sitting in a sleek black leather office chair wearing a crisp white shirt The custom made fabric clung to his muscular chest and broad shoulders adding an extra layer of sophistication to his already strikingly handsome cool and untouchable demeanor

She was wearing a thin white camisole The delicate straps rested lightly on her shoulders leaving her smooth skin exposed The sight was almost blinding in its sheer allure
Stanley paused for a moment taken a back He had never seen her like this before fresh from the shower with her hair in a messy bun and dressed so casually It gave her an air of pure youthful innocence that was impossible to ignore
