Wendy raised her delicate eyebrows . “ Mr. Hawk , Jessica What a coincidence , running into you here ”
“ I can imagine you didn’t want to run into us . You’re probably afraid we’ll find out about the nasty things you’re doing , ” Jessica shot back , her valce dripping with sarcasin
As the boss of Noval Health , Wendy had a lot of influence . When Terence heard someone Insulting her , he Immediately stepped in . “ Ms. Jessica , why do you have to speak so rudely ? ”
“ Dr. Binder , why are you protecting her so much Does your wife know you’re having dinner with her ? ”
Terence shot back , “ 1 ”
Wendy waved her hand , signaling Terence to step back .
Terence obediently moved aside .
Wendy looked at Jessica with a smirk , amusement dancing her eyes . “ It sounds like you’re implying something What are you trying to say ? Are you accusing me of having an Improper relationship with Dr. Binder ? ”
Jessica let out a cold laugh . “ Everyone knows that Novalealth is the largest publicly listed healthcare company in the country , with a prestigious reputation . Dr. Binder , as the director of NovaHealth , must get a lot of attention . I can understand if you’re trying to use your charm to win him over . ”
Terence could only stare at her , his face a mix of disbelief and annoyance .
Jessica continued , her tone sharp , “ But he’s a married man , Wendy . Where do you draw the line ? Isn’t Mr. Samuel enough for you ? Why are you out here trying to seduce someone else ? ”
Wendy knew Jessica had misunderstood the situation , but she wasn’t surprised . She smiled , her lips curving into a teasing grin . “ Some people are so filthy , they see dirt in everything . ”
Jessica seethed , her hands clenched into fists . “ You little … ”
At that moment , Stanley stepped forward , his voice cutting through the tension . “ Enough ! ”
Jessica shot him a pleading look . “ Did you see that ? Wendy really has no shame ! ”
Stanley’s eyes shifted toward Wendy’s face . “ You and Dr. Binder had dinner together ? ”
Wendy nodded without hesitation . “ Yes , so what ? Is there some law that says I can’t have dinner with him ? ” Stanley felt a strange unease , as though there was something : Wendy and Terence were hiding from him . “ What did you two talk about ? ”
Terence immediately started to speak , but Wendy interrupted him, “ Mr. Hawk , I’m Dr. Ceylan , a renowned doctor , and Terence is the director of NovaHealth . Of course , we were talking about medical topics . ” Terence nodded in agreement . “ Exactly . I’ve long admired Dr. Ceylan’s work , and tonight , I invited her to dinner . ” Terence turned to Jessica with a smug smile . “ I’d advise you not to get too upset , Ms. Jessica . Your heart condition has been worsening , and if Dr. Ceylan doesn’t intervene , no one else will be able to treat you . If I were you , I’d be doing everything I could to win her favor . ”
The words hit Jessica like a slap in the face , draining the color from her face in an instant .
Wendy watched her carefully , her expression void of sympathy . She didn’t feel an ounce of pity .
The Crone family dug their own graves . They didn’t deserve her sympathy .
