Chapter 210
“ After Mrs. Hawk entered the hospital room , I followed your instructions and found you a virgin . ”
That virgin was Luna .
Stanley’s expression remained unchanged , his face an unreadable mask . “ I understand . ”
He walked into the bathroom and turned on the cold shower
The icy water cascaded down from his head , and he closed his eyes , letting it wash over him .
His body was marked with several scratches , and there was deep bite mark on his shoulder . He had thought those were from Wendy , but now he realized they weren’t .
It had all been just a dream .
A dream where he imagined being with Wendy .
But she never came .
Instead , he had ended up with her classmate .’
Stanley scrubbed his skin hard , trying to erase the marks , as if washing them away would cleanse him .
With a loud bang , a heavy punch collided with the wall , sending a crack through the tiles .
Luna had finished dressing and was waiting for Stanley in the study .
Soon , Stanley walked in . He had showered and was wearing a clean white shirt and black pants . His face , once tense with emotion , now wore his usual cold , distant expression . He seemed to have returned to his composed , aloof self , his indifference as sharp as ever .
“ Mr. Hawk , ” Zayn greeted .
Stanley sat in his office chair , his eyes briefly flicking toward Luna . “ There’s a check . Take it and leave . ”
Zayn handed Luna the check .
She glanced at it , the number on it almost blinding in its magnitude .
But Luna didn’t take it . “ Mr. Hawk , I don’t want money . ”
She didn’t want money ?
Stanley’s lips curled into a cold smile , his voice deep and devoid of warmth . “ What happened is just a transaction . You came here to sell yourself , didn’t you ? Don’t tell me you want to talk about feelings , and don’t you dare say you’re in love with me . ”
Luna’s face paled . She knew he was indifferent , but she hadn’t expected him to be so cruel .
He looked down on her , stripping away any pretense , shattering the small bit of dignity she had . Despite everything , there was something about him – something that made it hard not to love him .
Mr. Hawk , I know you’re not interested in me , and I don’t have any unreasonable expectations . I don’t want money , but I want to join Apex Entertainment under your company . I’m in the performing arts , and I want you to give me the resources to make me a star . ”

Stanley glanced at her . “ Fine . ”
He agreed .
Helping create a star was nothing for him . He had the power to do it easily .
Besides , he had always been generous .
“ Ms. Fisher , someone from Apex Entertainment will be in touch soon to discuss the contract with you . There will be major resources – reality shows , movies , fashion , and more . You’ll also have a top – tier team to build your image and push you into the limelight , ” Zayn said .
Luna’s eyes lit up . This was everything she had ever dreamed of , and now , it was finally happening .
“ Thank you , Mr. Hawk . ”
Stanley didn’t show much emotion .
Zayn gestured toward the door . “ Ms. Fisher , this way . ”
She had gotten what she wanted , and now , there was nothing more to say . Their paths would likely never cross again . Zayn escorted her out .
Luna stole one last lingering look at Stanley before she followed Zayn out of the room .
The study fell silent once more . Just then , the ring of a phone broke the quiet — an incoming call .
It was Lilian .
“ Hello , Mr. Hawk . You left Jessica alone last night , and now , something’s happened ! She’s in the hospital . You need to get here right away ! ”
