The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 169

Wendy clicked on the message, seeing "Hubby" had sent a smiley emoji.

Wendy froze for a second, then she covered her face and screamed, "Ah!"

Stanley was sitting in the CEO's office, watching Wendy's chat window flash repeatedly with "typing…" for several minutes. Eventually, it seemed the person on the other end gave up, and nothing came through as the screen fell silent.

The storm cloud that had been hanging over Stanley's handsome face cleared, and he couldn't help but laugh.

Wendy couldn't stand teasing.

Stanley's mind drifted to the screenshot he had seen earlier—the picture of her delicate, pink neck adorned with the ruby necklace. It was truly beautiful.

Her best friend had called him what again? "Jerk"?

[That jerk? Wendy, you must've pleasured him well, huh? He just gave you a ruby necklace as a reward.]

Stanley's gaze deepened as images of their time in the car flashed through his mind.

His handsome eyelids fluttered a few times, and he had to admit, Wendy had truly surprised him. That was why, during his brief trip abroad, the moment he saw the ruby necklace, he had to buy it for her.

They hadn't yet taken their relationship to the next level, but Wendy was the first woman who had ever taken care of him in this way. A man always feels differently about his first.

At that moment, the door to the CEO's office opened, and Jessica walked in. "Stanley, you're back?"

Stanley replied with a simple hum.

Without hesitation, Jessica sat down on Stanley's lap, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Where's my gift?"

Stanley paused for a moment. He had bought a gift for Wendy, but nothing for Jessica.

In fact, he hadn't even thought about getting Jessica a gift this time.

He had never done that before.

Seeing the hopeful look in Jessica's eyes, Stanley gently replied, "I forgot. Tell me what you want, and I'll have my secretary buy it for you."

Jessica was taken aback. "Didn't you order the AIber ruby and diamond necklace? Wasn't that for me?"
