Chapter 1338
After seeing Stanley Batton’s eyes, Xyla Quest felt all the weakness in her heart spilling out…When she first saw Stanley earlier, she could still hold her emotions in and not let any of it show.Xyla thought she could keep holding her emotions in.However, as she saw an increasing number of corpses and injured people, she didn’t want to keep doing so any longer…Xyla realized that she wasn’t as tough as she had imagined.At this moment, she really couldn’t handle it anymore.Xyla couldn’t care about anything else. She just wanted to cry and vent…Most of the people who died or got injured today were from the auction…More than half of these hundreds of people were either dead or injured…A disaster like this was no better than a terrorist attack…“No… None of this has anything to do with you… The culprit was cruel. It’s not your fault…” Stanley felt as if his heart was being cut. He carefully consoled Xyla.The girl before his eyes was like a fragile rose made of glass.H
Chapter 1339
Stanley Batton’s words deeply touched Xyla Quest.However, Xyla still couldn’t control her emotions…Her tears continued to fall… “This incident is too much like the incident that happened during Dragon Group’s seventieth anniversary… It must be the same person who did it…“I’m getting more and more confident that this was all done by that ‘master’. Even if we didn’t find anything previously…“I still have the same suspicion… Apart from the ‘master’, I can’t think of anyone who would hate me this much. In fact, why would someone hate me to this degree…” Xyla continued to stammer. Whenever she said the word ‘master’, her tone would intensify.She was practically speaking through gritted teeth.At this moment, if that master was in front of her, she would surely stab him and kill him to avenge those countless people who died because of her!“I won’t let him go!” Stanley said coldly. His voice sounded like Satan from hell, and his eyes were filled with a murderous intent…A stro

While everyone watched, Zack Cassidy and a group of men dressed in black got out of the aircraft first.After that, Stanley Batton also got out of the aircraft.Before Xyla Quest could get out on her own, Stanley quickly opened the cabin door for her and princess-carried her out of the cabin.Suddenly, the two of them were the center of attention.Although Stanley was utterly drenched, it didn’t affect his good looks at all.Women were still going mad for him.Meanwhile, Xyla seemed to be in a much more terrible state in his arms.Her body was covered in wounds.Her clothes were also extremely filthy.Her face was covered in dirt.When many people paid attention to Stanley, they would also subconsciously take a few extra glances at Xyla.Everyone was shocked when they saw that Xyla was covered in wounds.As everyone watched, Stanley brought Xyla into the hospital as if nobody else was around.A large group of men in black and Zack continued to follow the two of them with s

‘If I didn’t come to the auction today, could all of this have been avoided?’ Xyla Quest wondered.No…After thinking carefully, it didn’t seem likely.Her opponent was determined to kill her.Even if it hadn’t happened tonight, it would have happened sometime in the future…As long as Xyla was alive, and as long as her opponent didn’t give up, things like this could happen at any time and any location.In fact, Xyla started feeling even more terrified…She didn’t dare to imagine. What if something like this happened again? Would she go crazy?Hence, Xyla needed to find this ‘master’ as soon as possible.She had to bring an end to all this!A few minutes later, the battle aircraft landed on flat grounds in front of their villa.Stanley Batton carried Xyla in his arms and walked into the house.The house was pitch black on the inside.Stanley quickly pressed his back against the switch by the entrance.Soon, the entire world became bright again.Stanley changed into slipp

Stanley Batton and Xyla Quest’s phones’ screen showed the same contents.There were still all sorts of news reports about the helicopter bombing incident at Riverdale Market—“Currently, investigations are underway on the terrorist attack at Riverdale Market.”“During the Riverdale Market’s terrorist attack, fifty people suffered from serious injuries, ten people suffered from minor injuries, and eighty people died…”Every number that came into sight made Xyla’s heart ache intensely.Suddenly, Xyla’s hands started shaking uncontrollably.When Stanley saw this, he carefully pulled Xyla into his arms.It was as if he was protecting a fragile clay doll.“Xyla… Don’t be like this. I’m begging you…” Stanley pleaded humbly. His eyes were filled with a gentle and sad look.“Honey, I feel truly awful…” Xyla’s voice was already extremely hoarse.“I know, but all of this isn’t your fault…” Stanley said.By now, Xyla felt that she didn’t even have the energy to speak. Hence, she didn’t

“No… Did you know that those people were coming for me today?” Xyla Quest asked.Georgie Clementine’s eyes filled with shock when she heard this. “What? What do you mean?”After hearing what Xyla said, Georgie felt unusually afraid in hindsight.Georgie didn’t dare to imagine what would’ve happened to Xyla if she was slightly unluckier today.Would she have lost an arm or a limb like those people at the scene? Or would she have died?The more Georgie thought about it, the more chills went down her spine.“That helicopter was following me the entire time as it dropped bombs… If it wasn’t coming for me, who was it coming for? Those people were all hurt because of me…” Xyla added.After saying that, tears started silently rolling down her cheeks once again.Xyla thought that she perhaps wouldn’t be able to walk away from all this sadness for a long time…The more Georgie heard about these, the more shocked and worried she felt…All these emotions convoluted inside her made her e
Chapter 1344
Xyla Quest nodded. “I’m feeling a little better, but it still feels horrible. Georgie, I find it difficult not to be involved… I hate myself.”“But you didn’t kill those people. You weren’t the one who asked that person to drop bombs from a helicopter… You should hate that criminal. That person is so inhumane!” Georgie Clementine said before clenching her fists tightly again.Up until now, Georgie still felt afraid in hindsight when she recalled the cruel methods of the criminal…She felt very curious about this criminal’s identity.From her perspective, Xyla had always been a person who was easy to get along with.Although Xyla had a high profile, she had never used it to oppress other people or harm others.Regardless of who Xyla faced, she was always gentle and polite.Anyone who ever had any conflict with Xyla was always the person who messed with Xyla first.Hence, Georgie felt that it had to be the same this time…Georgie guessed that someone must have messed with Xyla.
Chapter 1345
When Xyla Quest picked up her phone, she saw that there were three missed calls.She thought that she had perhaps accidentally switched her phone to silent mode earlier. She was too focused on talking with Georgie Clementine that she failed to notice the calls.These three missed calls were all from Sharon Lindt.Moreover, the calls were made an hour ago.Xyla knew that Sharon had also called her because she read the news.Hence, Xyla quickly tapped on the number and returned Sharon’s call…Right then, the sound of a door being opened could be heard.Xyla immediately looked in the direction where the noise came from.She saw Sharon rushing through the door with Ron Batton and Wilson Batton.Right then, Sharon’s phone started ringing. The screen showed that it was Xyla making the call.When Xyla heard the ringtone, she immediately tapped the button to hang up. After that, she quickly walked over to them.As soon as the Batton family saw Xyla, they seemed even more panicked wi
