The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 51

Chapter 51

But Stanley was Jessica’s.

What should she do?

Uh–oh.

The rich kids were getting excited again. Trish was famous for being a catch, and she was still single–many had a soft spot for her.

Wendy smiled. “Trish, it’s your turn to pick.”

She glanced at Jessica with a playful smirk. “Jessica, we all know Trish has a certain pride about her. Who do you think she’ll choose?”

Jessica shot Wendy a glare. “Of course, Trish is outstanding. Plenty of men are chasing after her. She must have a bit of that arrogance. That’s public knowledge.”

Wendy smiled, saying nothing more.

Jessica turned her attention to Trish, genuinely curious. She wasn’t sure who Trish would choose, either.

Since coming back to the country, Trish had become Dr. Ceylan’s assistant. Meanwhile, Archer’s family was in Edith’s good books, and Trish was picking her ideal match among Hovendale’s high society.

Jessica looked at Trish. “So, who will it be?”

Everyone eagerly watched Trish, waiting for her to make her pick.

Trish stood up, her gaze briefly meeting Stanley’s with a spark of interest. “Alright, I’ll choose

now.”

She made her way toward Stanley.

Passing by a young heir, Jessica’s eyes lit up. “Trish, are you picking Mr. Burton?”

But Trish simply moved past him and walked toward the other rich heir.

Jessica’s excitement grew even more. “Trish, are you picking Mr. Maxwell?”

Not quite.

Trish continued past all the rich heirs until only one person remained… Stanley.

Jessica gasped, rising abruptly to block Trish’s path, her voice incredulous. “Trish, who are

you choosing? Are you seriously picking Stanley?”

Since Jessica was standing in her way, Trish couldn’t reach Stanley. She met Jessica’s gaze head–on. “Why yes, Jessica. I’m picking Mr: Hawk.”

Jessica’s pupils constricted in shock. She couldn’t believe that Trish, so proud and confident, was eyeing Stanley.

Stanley was hers. Trish was trying to steal him from her!

“Trish, no! You can’t pick Stanley!”

Trish, now Dr. Ceylan’s assistant, felt she was just as impressive as Jessica. “Why not? This is a game. Wendy told me to pick anyone from the men here, and that includes Mr. Hawk. What, Jessica? Can’t you accept the game’s terms?”

“You!”

The surrounding rich heirs murmured, “Looks like the Crone family’s ladies are about to fight

over Mr. Hawk!”

“They were just acting like sisters, and now they’re tearing each other apart over him!”

The onlookers were loving every minute of it.

Cecelia quietly gave Wendy a thumbs–up. “Wendy, you’re brilliant! With one move, you got them fighting like cats and dogs.”

The two so–called sisters who had teamed up to humiliate Wendy earlier were now at odds. Wendy smirked, watching the drama unfold.

At that moment, Wendy felt a cold, intense gaze land on her. She looked up and met Stanley’s frosty eyes.

Stanley wasn’t looking at Jessica or Trish. His cold, penetrating gaze was aimed straight at her. His eyes were like frozen daggers, chilling her to the core.
