Being awake in the middle of the night was the worst feeling ever.That was because one couldn’t help but think about troubling thoughts when one was awake.After rolling about until it was close to the break of dawn, Xyla finally fell asleep.Fortunately, she didn’t dream this time.Instead, she slept until noon.At noon the next day, Xyla woke up naturally.When she opened her eyes, the curtains had been drawn shut.The thick curtains kept the sunlight out. She couldn’t tell if it was day or night.As Xyla had slept well, she felt extremely relaxed.After taking a deep breath, she casually stretched and opened her eyes. She looked to her side and realized it was empty.Stanley Batton wasn’t there.Xyla reached for her phone on the nightstand and checked the time.She then slowly sat upright.The moment she sat up, she began recalling the two dreams she had the night before…Suddenly, she felt goosebumps all over her body again.Her body also felt cold.How lucky…It

Hence, Xyla Quest exited from the news article and switched over to the financial news bulletin to check out what was trending for the day.The headline of the financial news bulletin was related to Tony Sullivan’s death.Xyla didn’t tap on it.Instead, she briefly checked out news about other businesses.While going through the news, her phone started ringing.The call was from Stanley Batton.When Xyla saw the word ‘Honey’, her gaze immediately became tender.She subconsciously smiled before picking it up. “Hey, honey…”Her tone was very gentle when she spoke.On the other side of the phone, Stanley was inspecting each department of a subsidiary company in City K with a large group of people. His facial expression was cold.There was a large group of high-level executives behind him, as well as a group of bodyguards.Everyone seemed timid and careful…Stanley wore a black shirt, a fitting high-class suit, and a custom-made, high-class coat…He seemed unspeakably noble.

“Also…” Stanley Batton said.“Oh, stop nagging. Are you my father?” Sometimes, Xyla Quest felt like Stanley was her father instead of her husband.The way Stanley nagged at her without an end in sight reminded her very much of her father…In fact, he was even worse than her father.Although Xyla was complaining, she liked it…“Alright, I’ll stop nagging. Be good, okay? I’ll buy you a gift when I go back… What would you like?” Stanley asked.“Nothing in particular. Buy whatever you want…” Xyla said.“Okay.” Stanley slowly hung up. There was a vague smile on his face.He looked very attractive.His gentleness charmed everyone present…The women, especially, wished they were Xyla instead.Who wouldn’t want a rich, handsome, and perfect man like him?Suddenly, the women couldn’t help but start looking at each other…Everyone was jealous of Xyla.Soon, Stanley’s gentle expression disappeared.In its place was his usual cold expression.Everyone found it hard to get used to t

When Brenda Stratford heard what Cindy Dunn said, she immediately glared at Cindy. “How could you say something like that? If the president’s wife heard you, you’ll be in deep trouble…”Cindy chuckled coldly.After that, she slowly opened her drawer and retrieved her Lamer concealer.She slowly applied it onto her face using a mirror. “I’m speaking the truth. There isn’t a man in this world who wouldn’t cheat. But, if there was, it’d only be because the woman wasn’t his type…“If she were his type, he wouldn't even hesitate… That’s all,” Cindy said before raising her hands and laughing hysterically…Brenda rolled her eyes. “Tsk… Go on, be sour about it… I think you’re just jealous.”“Jealous? I’m not…” Cindy said.Cindy was never jealous of anyone.If somebody had something she wanted, she wouldn’t stay silent about it.Instead, she would fight for it.Fortunately, luck had always been on her side.She’d always get what she wanted.Other people would be jealous of her inste

I’m heading to the next one… This one is in City S…”On the other hand, Xyla had just arrived at her office in Quest Group.She was just about to turn on her laptop.Xyla instantly replied to Stanley when she saw his message. “All the best… Don’t exhaust yourself. Have you had lunch?”Stanley smiled. “I’m on the way to lunch,” Stanley said.“Eat something nice… Don’t skip lunch just because you’re busy. You must send me a picture of what you had for lunch later… I have to make sure you’ve eaten,” Xyla said.“Roger that,” Stanley said.Xyla replied with an adorable smiley emoji.The entourage of cars moved forward stably.A black BMW followed from behind in a low-key fashion.The person in the driver’s seat was Cindy.To avoid being noticed, she drove very carefully.Stanley first went to a nearby high-class restaurant for lunch…After that, he headed directly to Cit
