Wendy found herself puzzled. Why was Stanley looking at her like that?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jessica was right there beside him, so why wasn\u2019t he looking at her? Lately, it felt like Stanley had been watching her more than usual,\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nathan looked at Wendy. \u201cWendy, let\u2019s go to that hot spring over there.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cecelia covered her mouth, trying to hide her laugh. \u201cNathan wants to be alone with you, Wendy. Go on, then.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
As she spoke, Cecelia shot Stanley a glance. Noticing his gloomy expression, she felt elated for some reason. Wendy followed Nathan as they walked to a different hot spring. They chatted for a while, but before long, Nathan\u2019s phone rang. He excused himself to take the call.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWendy, I\u2019ll be right back. I just need to take this.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright,\u201d she replied.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nathan walked off to answer his phone, and Wendy lingered in the water for a bit. She noticed a vendor selling ice cream and, unable to resist the temptation, went over to buy some.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, when she reached the vendor, he had already left. Without realizing it, Wendy found herself walking deeper into a secluded part of the hot spring.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There, Wendy saw two people\u2013one was a man with a tiger tattoo on his chest, and the other was a woman with a seductive, curvy figure. The woman was sitting on the man\u2019s lap, and they were clearly engaged in an intimate moment. The surrounding water rippled as they moved.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The woman laughed. \u201cAren\u2019t you afraid someone will see you with your boss\u2019s woman?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The man, panting heavily, grinned arrogantly. \u201cIf anyone sees us, I\u2019ll kill them!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Wendy hadn\u2019t expected to stumble upon such a scene\u2013she had unwittingly walked in on an affair.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The man, Lionel Chambers, had a tiger tattoo, and he looked like a dangerous figure, someone involved in shady business.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWait.\u201d Lionel suddenly snapped, his eyes narrowing in suspicion. His piercing gaze shot straight toward Wendy. Who\u2019s there?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Wendy\u2019s heart raced. She turned and ran.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lionel pushed the woman off him and glanced toward his bodyguard, who was nearby. \u201cSomeone was here. Go after them.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lionel and a few bodyguards quickly started chasing after her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Wendy didn\u2019t want to get in lved with dangerous people like them, and she tried to escape as quickly as she could. To her horror, she realized she had ended up in a dead\u2013end. She was trapped.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lionel and his bodyguards were closing in fast. What was she supposed to do?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Wendy nervously backed away, but just then, her back collided with a strong chest.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She looked up in surprise, only to see Stanley\u2019s handsome face looming over her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Stanley? How did he get here?\u00a0<\/p>\n

He grabbed her slender arm and pulled her behind a large rock. His strong arm gently circled her waist, lifting her effortlessly and placing her on the stone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSpread your legs and wrap them around my waist,\u201d he murmured.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Wendy\u2019s heart skipped a beat, and her body tensed in protest. \u201cNo!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Stanley\u2019s eyes darkened as he looked at her with a smirk. \u201cHaven\u2019t you ever wrapped your legs around a man? Stop pretending.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
For some reason, he sounded angry.\u00a0<\/p>\n
What was his problem? What had she done to upset him?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Without waiting for her response, Stanley pressed his knee between her legs, forcing them apart, and his lean body moved closer, his narrow waist pushing against her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Wendy\u2019s long, slender legs shook, refusing to cooperate as she kept her legs tightly together.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She knew Stanley was only trying to protect her, but this wasn\u2019t the way she wanted it. They could have handled this differently.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cStanley, stop this!\u201d she begged, her voice trembling.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She tried to push him away, using her delicate knees to shove him back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Stanley\u2019s face grew even darker, and it was as though the air around him had turned to ice. Seeing her struggle only worsened his mood. His jaw tightened, and his eyes flashed with cold fury.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLionel!\u201d A voice rang out. \u201cI saw someone running this way just now!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
