Over the years Stanley had been surrounded by the temptation of women and he had met some skilled ones He knew what Wendy was doing she was trying to tease him
She wanted to see if she could hook him in if he would take the bait
A thin knowing smile tugged at the corner of Stanley slips That little temptress
Just then his phone rang cutting through the tension The screen flashed with the caller ID Jessica
The display of her name immediately cooled Stanley down The heat that Wendy had stirred up in him slowly faded
Stanley answered the call
Jessica s soft voice came through Stanley are you still upset I m sorry I shouldn t have argued with you or thrown things Honestly I was just jealous I got jealous that you were so kind to Wendy Pleased on t be angry anymore Iloveyou I really really love you
Over the years Jessica had been spoiled by him but now she was humbling herself apologizing and coaxing him gently telling him over and over how much she loved him
Stanley felt his heart stir After all she was his girl

Wendy didn t get a response from him but deep down she knew she wouldn t
Stanley had Jessica by his side and there were always plenty of beautiful women around him His physical needs could be satisfied in many ways What was she to him
She couldn twin this untouchable man
He truly didn t have feelings for her
Wendy let out a self deprecating laugh
She pulled out Trish s academic paper again and circled two mistakes with a red pen before sending it to Samuel
Samuel quickly replied I can t believe there are such serious mistakes in this academic paper I ll have the Medical Museum pull it down
