Stanley raised his hand and gently pulled his arm away from Jessica\u2019s grip. His voice was cold and indifferent as he said, \u201cI\u2019ve had some drinks, so I can\u2019t drive. I\u2019m heading back to the office now. You can go home by yourself.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Zayn pulled up with the Rolls Royce, and Stanley climbed into the car before it drove off.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jessica stood there, alone. She wasn\u2019t upset; on the contrary, she was rather pleased with how things were going.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just then, Sienna walked over, stomping her feet in frustration. \u201cJessica, can you believe that Wendy actually wrote a love letter to seduce Nathan? She\u2019s so shameless!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The love letter wasn\u2019t Wendy\u2019s doing\u2013it was something Jessica had Benny prepare. But she hadn\u2019t told Sienna that. This was all part of her plan\u2013getting Wendy and Nathan together while also fueling Sienna\u2019s hatred for Wendy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSienna, Wendy doesn\u2019t deserve Nathan. But you know how men are they always want what they can\u2019t have. Trust me, it won\u2019t be long before Nathan gets tired of her,\u201d Jessica said, her voice dripping with certainty.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She believed that a man like Nathan, who was similar to Stanley, might be temporarily enchanted by a pretty face, but it would never last. She was confident he would abandon Wendy someday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Wendy was from the countryside and dropped out of school at sixteen. Once the novelty wore off, Nathan would grow bored of her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sienna was convinced as well, but her expression darkened still.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jessica gave her a comforting smile. \u201cDon\u2019t worry, Sienna. I think of you as a sister. I\u2019ll make sure you and Nathan get together.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re the best, Jessica!\u201d Sienna said, wrapping her arms around Jessica in a grateful hug.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jessica gave a half\u2013hearted smile, her thoughts elsewhere.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just then, Benny walked over, looking unusually cheerful. \u201cLooks like everyone\u2019s falling in love. Maybe I should give it a go.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jessica and Sienna immediately turned to him, curious. \u201cBenny, who\u2019s the lucky girl you\u2019ve set your sights on?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Who had managed to catch the eye of Hovendale\u2019s infamous troublemaker?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Benny grinned, looking mischievous. \u201cShe\u2019s this genius freshman, Stanley\u2019s junior.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
What?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jessica froze, her smile stiffening.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She absolutely hated the so\u2013called \u201cgenius freshman\u201c. Feeling threatened, she felt a deep jealousy brewing inside\u00a0<\/p>\n
her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBenny, have you met this genius freshman?\u201d she asked.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNot yet,\u201d Benny replied nonchalantly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jessica raised an eyebrow. \u201cSo, you\u2019re doing the whole online dating thing?\u201d She couldn\u2019t believe Benny would date someone online.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just then, Benny pulled out his phone. The last time Stanley had added him to a group chat, he\u2019d found himself in the same one as the genius freshman, W. Benny started typing a message, clearly in the mood to flirt. He tagged W and sent a message.\u00a0<\/p>\n

[Hey, do you have a boyfriend?]\u00a0<\/p>\n
He chuckled. \u201cLet\u2019s see how she responds.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jessica, on the other hand, was fuming with envy. She sneered, \u201cCome on. You\u2019re Hovendale\u2019s little troublemaker, the heir to the family fortune. She\u2019s probably thrilled that you\u2019re flirting with her.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ding!\u00a0<\/p>\n
The phone buzzed with a new message.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Benny\u2019s face lit up. \u201cShe replied! Um\u2026 Get lost?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
That was her reply\u2013two simple words, [Get lost!).\u00a0<\/p>\n
Benny was left speechless, while Jessica and Sienna froze.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Back in the CEO\u2019s office, Stanley stood tall by the floor\u2013to\u2013ceiling window, his long legs planted firmly as thoughts of Wendy flooded his mind. Her delicate, flawless face kept replaying in his head.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She\u2019d written a love letter to Nathan.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She\u2019d playfully teased Nathan, punching him in the chest with a look of innocence, like a playful cat in heat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Last night, during the video call, she\u2019d offered him some of the ice cream she\u2019d just eaten and asked if he wanted some. Today, she was feeding Nathan cake.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Stanley let out a bitter laugh, curling his lips in disdain. So, when she couldn\u2019t catch his attention, she moved on to Nathan? And she even seduced Nathan the same way she had seduced him?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ding!\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just then, his phone buzzed. A new notification popped up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
