“Ughh! I’m so mad!” Emily Quest grabbed a pillow next to her and hurled it to the ground.

After Xyla Quest got changed upstairs, she put on some light make-up before getting into her car and driving to X Entertainment.

X Entertainment’s office was located in the most developed area in the city center of Atlantis.

From the outside, the tall building appeared both fashionable and artistic.

Since the walls were made fully of glass, it was nearly transparent from the inside out.

With a total of sixteen floors, there were twelve floors above the ground and four floors under.

All of X Entertainment’s artists and trainees had their practices and recordings done in this building.

After Xyla got out of her car, she quickly entered the tall building.

Dressed in a light blue professional outfit, coupled with a white T-shirt and white heels, she seemed both dainty and experienced.

Using her personal elevator, Xyla rode to the president’s office directly.

As soon as she sat down, Georgie Clementine knocked on her door with a massive pile of documents.

Georgie placed the documents on her table. “Over the past two days, our company has interviewed two hundred trainee candidates. Among these candidates, I have selected fifty of them. Please have a look and get these signed if you are fine with them…”

“By the looks of how things are developing, I estimate that we will be able to increase our headcount by a few hundred people once the recruitment period is up next month…” Georgie reported.

“Alright. I’ll look at these later,” Xyla said.

“President Xyla, I bet your little sister was tortured by Uncle today. Isn’t that so?” Georgie asked curiously before pulling a chair out and sitting in front of Xyla.

“Yeah…” Xyla answered. “It’s just as we predicted.”

“You really do know Emily well. You said that she would show off that I had agreed to sign the contract with her. Indeed, she did.”

“With a top-notch celebrity like Josh Batton, as long as one person found out about news like that, and told the world about it, it would inevitably become the most popular topic on the internet.” Georgie was smiling from ear to ear as she found this incident incredibly hilarious.

Xyla chuckled. “You did a good job cooperating with me. Georgie, I’ve told you many times before that you can call me Xyla when there’s only the two of us.”

Xyla and Georgie were classmates back in Summerland University. Since they were able to get along with each other, they soon became the best of friends.

A year ago, when Xyla mentioned that she was going to establish X Entertainment, Georgie took the first step to return to the country and set up the company without hesitation.

Moreover, Georgie did everything according to Xyla’s orders behind the scenes.

Once Xyla returned, Georgie handed a fully developed and ever-growing entertainment company over to her.

To Xyla, Georgie was her best friend and also her closest comrade.

“Names get changed around all the time. I’ve gotten used to calling you President Xyla…” Georgie said.

“Alright then.”

“President Xyla, what kind of a person do you think your husband is?”

Xyla shook her head. She knew nothing about him.

There was probably no one else in the world who would accept a marriage certificate without even being at the registrar’s office physically.

Nobody would even believe her if she told them everything about her husband.

Three years ago, on the night Xyla was close to dying, she was rescued by the Quest family’s personal doctor, Adam Shaw.

On that fateful night, Adam was driving by and coincidentally discovered Xyla buried under the snow. He had immediately taken her to the hospital.

When she woke up, Adam told her that his professor in America’s medical institution found her an expert who could heal her sickness.

Moreover, he told her that the man was a Chinese doctor who lived permanently in Kingsman in America. The locals referred to him as a god among doctors. However, he was no longer accepting patients.

Therefore, she asked Adam for the doctor’s address and rushed overnight to Kingstown in America.

However, the doctor refused to see her.

To convince him to treat her, Xyla had knelt in front of his villa for three days and three nights.

Only when she was about to pass out did the man come out and took her into the villa.

After checking her pulse and getting her blood checked, the doctor agreed to treat her. However, in return, she must accept his request to get married to his grandson. Moreover, they were not allowed to get divorced within three years. Throughout that period, she was also not allowed to cheat on him.

To recover her beauty, Xyla agreed without even considering it.

After that, Xyla continued to stay with the doctor. While getting her treatment, she continued to study.

After a year, positive results began to show from her treatment. The doctor then asked for her personal identity card and returned it to her later that evening with a photo-less marriage certificate.

To avoid a divorce between them, he kept the marriage certificate away after showing it to her momentarily.

Xyla could only recall that her husband’s name was Stanley Batton.

As for his line of work or his appearances, Xyla had not a single clue.

Later, the doctor expressed his intention to teach her everything he knew in the medical field.

Therefore, Xyla became his disciple in medical studies.

Throughout that period, she never had any interaction with her husband.

Although they were married on paper, Xyla lived just like any other single lady.

However, Xyla was quite pleased by the lack of attention from her husband. She could do whatever she wanted every day and silently wait for time to pass until they could get a divorce.

“Do you think your husband is very ugly? Is that why he refuses to see you?

“Or could he be a person with a physical disability? Or is he in a coma?

“Perhaps he could be terminally ill. Did that man make you two get married to bring blessings into the family?” Georgie asked jokingly.

“I don’t know. Anyway, I can get a divorce in a year. I’ll do it when the time comes,” Xyla said nonchalantly.

“Hmm. That’s true. Oh, yeah, make sure you are free tonight,” Georgie suddenly became serious.

“Why is that?” Xyla asked curiously.

“I discovered a potential talent in Unconscious Bar. I’m planning to take you there to check him out.

“The man looks very handsome. He looks like a bad boy with a unique charisma. I’ve checked to make sure he isn’t signed to any other company now,” Georgie added.

“Okay…”

***

Late in the night, a DJ was blasting upbeat music which vibrated deeply in everyone’s hearts.

There was a scent of smoke and alcohol in the air. Meanwhile, men and women danced wildly along to the beat of the music.

After Xyla and Georgie entered the bar, they looked for seats in the VIP section and sat down somewhere closest to the stage.

Since they were in a hurry, neither of them had changed their clothes. Even so, they seemed to outshine everyone else in the bar.

The bright lights in the bar illuminated their faces, making them stand out even more.

Meanwhile, a group of men and women were making a lot of noise at the table next to theirs.

Xyla subconsciously glanced over at them.

At that moment, Xyla could feel her heart stop beating.

It was because her gaze landed on the man whom she had a one-nightstand with. He was seated in the center of the wild crowd.

Right then, he was calmly drinking a light blue cocktail with a cold expression on his face.

An extremely beautiful lady accompanied every man at the table except for him.

Right then, he subconsciously looked her way and caused her to shiver.
