In the understated ly luxurious business conference room Stanley stood tall in a custom made black suit exuding both handsomeness and an air of nobility He was leading the senior executives of Hawk Group as they met with Marc Dubois the CEO of the Front el lian luxury brand L VMA
Mrs Hawk Mr Hawk s Front el lian is impeccable He speaks over twenty languages fluently and he never needs a translator the receptionist told Wendy as she prepared a cup of coffee for her
Wendy smiled lightly Thankyou
་་
You re welcome I ll leave you to it now the receptionist said with a bow before walking away
“Alright.”
Once the receptionist had left Wendy s sharp eyes once again drifted toward the floor to ceiling windows focusing on Stanley inside

No wonder so many women were after him Jessica hadn t even left and now there was Luna
When Stanley was all business he truly did look the part cold distinguished and utterly untouchable
But then remembering how he had pressured her Wendy couldn the lp but think of him as a well dressed beast His public composure might be pure but privately he was filled with desire
A small mischievous thought crossed her mind She took out her phone opened up the chat with Hubby and sent him a message

Just like the other night she was dressed in her school uniform a white blouse striped skirt and a beige collegiate style baseball jacket over it Her long black hair was tied up in a high ponytail giving her the appearance of a pure youthful college student just stepping into adulthood
Wendy s at on the couch outside her clear sharp eyes fixed on him

Their gazes met suspended in the air for a moment
Marc noticing Wendy outside turned to Stanley and asked in Front el lian Mr Hawk who is she
Stanley broke his gaze from Wendy and replied coolly She s my wife
Marc was taken a back Your wife is still a student
Stanley nodded.”Yes.”
Then he returned to his conversation with Marc focusing back on the business at hand

Stanley s phone buzzed again
Once more he apologized to Marc took out his phone and opened the message from Wendy
This time Wendy had sent a GIF one of those colorful playful ones of someone licking a lollipop
The moment it popped upon his screen it was like one of those annoying brightly colored ad pop ups that appear in the corners of webpages Stanley s gaze darkened as he looked toward Wendy
He was star in gather with a piercing serious expression his eyes heavy with something darker lust and the sharp unspoken authority of someone in control His gaze was both intense and hungry as if he were silently warning her making it clear who was in charge

Stanley continued to star eat her but Marc noticing the tension couldn the lp but glance at Wendy too
With a smile he commented Mrs Hawk has such an amazing presence So serene and otherworldly like an angel
