Meanwhile, Henry Armstrong immediately stopped looking upset when he saw Georgie Clementine.In the next second, he moved close to Georgie with a gentle look upon his face. He looked at her nervously. “Honey, don’t get the wrong idea. I was innocent. I just parked when this person got into my car on her own…”While Henry was explaining, he looked like a kid who had made a mistake and was afraid his parents would get angry. He seemed genuinely terrified.Georgie found his behavior extremely hilarious.“Honestly, I swear. You can ask this woman if you don’t believe me…” Henry added.Georgie shook her head helplessly. She couldn’t resist chuckling. “Alright… I guess that’s what happened…”Georgie knew exactly what kind of person Henry was right now.Hence, she didn’t doubt him at all.“Really? Are you sure you didn’t misunderstand anything?” Henry continued to ask carefully. He seemed excited now.“No…” Georgie said.“That’s great… I’m glad…” Henry said.“Why are you here? Didn
“Anything will do,” Georgie Clementine said.“Don’t say anything. Tell me what you want to eat…” Henry Armstrong said.Georgie thought for a while. “What I want to eat isn’t available in the city… Forget it… Let’s just go to a Japanese restaurant,” she said.“Do you want to eat marinated crabs from that restaurant in the suburbs?” Henry asked.Georgie had been craving that recently.She’d ask Henry to buy it for her once every few days.Georgie nodded. “Yeah, but it’s too late. They would’ve closed by now.”“As long as you want it, I can get them to open up,” Henry said.Georgie quickly looked at the heavy snowfall. She shook her head. “No, it’s getting late. It’s not safe to drive there.”“It’s fine. I’ll drive slowly,” Henry said.“Is this necessary?” Georgie asked.“We’ll get it if that’s what you want. Why should you hold back? You can do whatever you want when you’re with me,” Henry said.Georgie immediately felt warmth spread in her heart when she heard this.Right t
Georgie Clementine was treated like a princess the whole time…Meanwhile, Henry Armstrong was like her prince, who only had eyes for her.After getting into the car, Henry habitually buckled up Georgie’s seatbelt.He then grabbed a U-shaped pillow and wrapped it around Georgie’s neck.Having made sure Georgie was comfortable, he started the engine and drove away as everyone watched on…With the heater turned on, it felt very warm inside.Everyone outside could see what happened in the car clearly.They felt nothing but shock…“He’s crazy about her, isn’t he?”“I know Henry adored Georgie, but I didn’t know it was to this extent.”“If someone told me in the past that Henry could turn out like this, I wouldn’t have believed them. In fact, I would’ve even told that person that I’d chop my head off to be used as a stool if that happened. I can’t believe what I’m seeing…”Henry’s friends talked to one another on the spot…Meanwhile, the two female internet celebrities also could
“Okay, as long as you’re happy. Georgie…” Henry Armstrong said.“Hmm?” Georgie Clementine asked confusedly.“I love you so much…” Henry said. Sometimes, Henry also thought that love was unpredictable.In the past, he always felt he was destined to be a player for life. He thought he’d squander his money on beautiful women…However, after meeting Georgie, everything suddenly changed…He became helplessly in love with her, and he was willing to give up the entire world for her.If somebody had told him in the past that he’d become like this one day, he’d never have believed them…Love really was strange.Georgie looked overjoyed. “Yeah… I know.”“What about you? Do you love me?” Henry asked.“Yes… How many times are you going to ask me that every day?” Georgie asked.Ever since they got together, Henry had been asking her this question frequently.Georgie couldn’t even remember how many times he’d ask her this question…She felt that her relationship with Henry was differe
Xyla Quest could feel a ball of warm fuzziness…That thing was even breathing…Its soft body rose and fell repeatedly.Xyla could even hear its breath.Suddenly, Xyla felt chills down her spine.She immediately pulled away and sat upright before looking at the thing next to her…However, she was surprised by what she saw.There was nothing in front of her…Only the white bedsheet could be seen.After looking around, Xyla still didn’t see anything…What was going on?Could she have been hallucinating earlier because she had just woken up?However, something didn’t feel right…The sensation felt so real.The warmth and fuzzy sensations in her palm weren’t fake.She could still remember those sensations clearly.Xyla quickly got out of bed and searched the room.She even checked behind the curtains.However, she couldn’t find anything.She returned to the bed barefooted with a deep frown on her face and confusion in her heart.In the next second, she quickly thought of
Since the inevitable would come sooner or later, Xyla Quest only hoped that it would quickly wrap up after it began.Outside, it was still snowing.There was a thick layer of snow on the courtyard.As far as the eye could see, the land was blanketed in silver.Xyla, who was most fond of snowy landscapes, didn’t have any interest in it right now.After mechanically brushing her teeth, she washed her face and got into her morning skincare routine.Xyla didn’t leave out anything, including her face mask and moisturizing products.After applying a layer of foundation, she quickly applied a simple nude makeup.Although the makeup was simple, it made her seem a lot classier…She looked like an angel.Beep, beep, beep—Right then, her phone started ringing next to the basin.Xyla immediately picked it up and glanced at it.The word ‘Honey’ appeared on her phone.When she saw this, she immediately picked up the call.On the other side, Stanley Batton was having a serious meeting
Also, the maid in Xyla Quest’s father’s house told her something when the nine-tailed fox injured her.She said that she smelled sandalwood when the nine-tailed fox attacked her…With all these facts combined, Xyla felt that the nine-tailed fox was indeed in her room…The thing that she touched when she woke up on the bed was the fox itself.Xyla was sure she wasn’t hallucinating.Suddenly, Xyla felt it all even eerier.She subconsciously tightened her grip on her phone…Immediately after that, Xyla could see a golden ray of light flashing before her.In the next second, she saw a white shadow fly past her…The shadow appeared and disappeared within a second.Xyla couldn’t see it clearly.However, the moment the shadow appeared before her, she could smell the sandalwood even more strongly.It was the kind of scent one would smell in a temple.Xyla’s heart started racing again.Her face also turned pale.Xyla quickly stood up and grabbed her phone tightly. “Honey… I exper
The only explanation was that the nine-tailed fox was the one messing with Xyla Quest…Xyla immediately tried to switch on her phone.However, it didn’t work.Xyla became even more panicked. She walked over to the nightstand and picked up the landline.She was even more shocked when she put the receiver against her ear.She couldn’t hear any sound from the receiver.Moreover, the phone didn’t seem to respond at all.It was like a toy phone that had run out of battery.The phone was fine yesterday…What else could it have been if not the nine-tailed fox’s doing?It was trapping Xyla here and stopping her from leaving. In fact, it wouldn’t even let her contact anyone else. Was it going to punish her right there and then?Xyla felt even more scared when she thought about it.Regardless of how calm she appeared on the outside, she was still afraid of dying.Her survival instincts kicked in, and she began thinking quickly on her feet.After glancing at the window, she decided
