“Will you let me go? I really won’t dare to do it again. Just think of me as a worthless fellow and let me go,” Wilson said.“You’re on your own,” Xyla Quest said.After saying that, Xyla held Stanley Batton’s hand and directly walked down the hill.A group of bodyguards followed them closely behind.Xyla truly felt extremely disgusted with Wilson. Hence, she didn’t want to let him go.Up to this point, it was all his fault.Soon, Darren Green and the others carried their equipment and directly followed the rest of the group away.“Don’t leave, Miss, please…” Wilson looked at Xyla and the others from behind with a hopeless gaze as he shouted.However, there wasn’t response at all.The police officers around Wilson couldn’t resist laughing coldly at this sight…“Weren’t you very tough? Why don’t you keep acting tough?”“You even wanted to deal with people from the Batton family… To put it in a bad way, even if the person supporting you from behind goes against the Batton fami

Everyone was stunned by how gorgeous the two of them appeared.The helicopter’s propeller was spinning rapidly, stirring up wild winds around it as it did so.The strong wind slightly shook passersby.Darren Green and the others didn’t immediately leave. Instead, they stood in place with full smiles on their faces as they waved goodbye to Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton.Xyla instantly waved back at them.Meanwhile, Stanley nodded politely. He was his cold yet noble self as usual.After getting a response from them, Darren and the others turned around to leave.The couple in the helicopter was the highlight of the crowded square.Although it was dark, everyone felt that the sky had turned bright again when they saw Xyla and Stanley.A few girls not far away couldn’t help but stop walking and looked in Stanley’s direction. They got excited—“Who is that… Why does that guy look so familiar? Is he a celebrity? He travels around on a helicopter. Isn’t that way too awesome?”“Ahh…H

The bodyguards followed them closely behind.After they left, the entire square buzzed with excitement…“Ahh… Doesn’t Stanley Batton dote on his wife too much? He carried her out of the helicopter.”“If my husband were half as good as him, I wouldn’t have gotten a divorce.”“Who is Stanley Batton?”“Don’t you know who Stanley Batton is? Are you even from Country Z? He’s the young heir of Dragon Group…”“I wonder if Xyla Quest feels enthralled every day. I’m so jealous.”Although Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton were getting further away from the square, everyone was still reluctant to look away.Each of them wished they could attach their eyeballs to the two of them… ***Xyla led Stanley and a group of bodyguards to a restaurant that was called Straw Hat Fish.The restaurant wasn’t very big. By then, it was already fully seated inside.Each table had a large pot in the center. There was a cover shaped like a straw hat on each of the large pots.With boiling pots of fish, whi

The pretty waitress carefully led the two of them into a private room.On their way there, she had glanced at the two of them countless times.Either one of them could end up being the most attractive person in a group of people.The pretty waitress had never seen such good-looking faces in real life. They were so attractive that she felt as if she’d be blinded by their light when she looked at them.The decoration of the private room was plain. It only had wallpaper with pictures of Straw Hat Fish and wooden flooring.All the tables and chairs were of the most ordinary type.As soon as they walked through the door, Stanley took the initiative to pull out a chair for Xyla. He then helped Xyla to her seat.After that, he sat across from her.The tiny affection once again nearly caused the waitress to die of excitement.“Order something… You can eat whatever you want,” Stanley said.“Oh, okay…” Xyla smiled before picking up the menu on the table and ticked off what she wanted o

In the next second, Xyla Quest’s heart started beating wildly…“Honey… I really like the way you look when you’re shy.” Stanley Batton’s smile gradually widened.“Really?” Xyla asked.“Yeah. Apart from how you look when you’re shy, I also like…” Stanley trailed off.“What else do you like?” Xyla asked.“I like you in every way,” Stanley said in the most affectionate tone despite his serious facial expression.At this moment, Xyla felt very touched. “You… Stop speaking, will you?”“Okay.”“Shut up,” Xyla said.“Alright.” Stanley’s eyes were filled with affection.Beep, beep, beep—Right then, Stanley’s phone started ringing.He immediately glanced at the screen.When Stanley saw that the call was from the Vice President, Liam Smith, he calmly picked it up.Xyla felt a little bored. Hence, she walked over to the window and looked out at the night scenery as the cold breeze blew against her.Although the night scenery of the small city wasn’t as busy and crowded as Atlantis

A large paragraph came into sight.“@Weibo News: A while ago, Dragon Group’s official page published a video of Xyla Quest getting her makeover as Pink Misty in the movie. They also shared that they would randomly select a hundred netizens who shared the post, and these people will be rewarded with ten thousand dollars in cash…”The post that Dragon Group published earlier on Weibo was a screenshot of the lucky draw on Weibo.

Right then, the pretty waitress walked in with a fresh fish on a tray…She heated the pot and added all the necessary ingredients for cooking the fish into it. After that, she quickly placed the fish in the pot before covering it up with the pot cover that was shaped like a straw hat.After that, the pretty waitress stood nearby and watched over it.Knowing that there was still a long time until they could eat, Xyla Quest opened Weibo again. She planned to read some current news.Right then, she saw her name on another hot topic. ‘#Xyla Quest and her mother-in-law#’…Xyla couldn’t hold back her curiosity. She quickly tapped on it to have a look.

The temperature in the Quest family’s house was very low. As soon as Xyla Quest walked through the door, she felt the chilly air against her face.During a hot summer day, this felt very comfortable.At this moment, Jeremy Quest was watching the television on the couch with his head lowered. He was wearing black silk loungewear, and his hair was trimmed in an extremely short fashion. It made him look clean and relaxed.After changing into slippers, Xyla quickly walked over to Jeremy and hugged him. “Dad… You’re finally back. I have missed you so much.”When Jeremy heard this, he immediately smiled and patted Xyla softly on her shoulder. “I missed you too, Xyla.“Come here, baby girl, let me have a good look at you…” While speaking, Jeremy gently pushed Xyla away and carefully examined her face.Suddenly, his eyes filled with a look of approval. “Hmm… Xyla, you look a lot better recently…”From the way Jeremy looked, Xyla could tell that he had thoroughly moved on from the grief
