Stanley Batton held Xyla Quest’s face with a loving look on his face, gazing deeply into her glistening eyes. “Xyla, I won’t abandon you for anyone.”“You’re my one and only in this lifetime. No matter how much I cared for her in the past, I would not leave you.“Since everything had already ended in my past life, I’ll let it stay in the past.“If she was my family member in the past, I’ll treat her well and protect her.“But if she was my lover back then, I’ll still treat her kindly, but I won’t love her in this lifetime,” Stanley added.Xyla instantly felt overwhelming warmth in her heart when she heard his words.She then smiled. “I was joking with you, you fool. Why did you take it so seriously?”“You may have asked the question casually, but I can’t reply to it carelessly. Xyla, it’s because I care about you and your feelings. Since I love you so deeply, I won’t allow you to think recklessly,” he replied.“Thank you for loving me this much, Darling. Thank you for letting m
Stanley Batton was a normal man.To avoid going any further, he pulled Xyla Quest away once again. “I’ll take a shower.”She nodded. “Okay, go ahead.”He then turned around and entered the bathroom, taking a cold shower to calm himself down.After he had left, Xyla sat down on the couch and picked up her laptop.At first, she wanted to get some work done, but after sitting down, she felt exhausted.So, she logged into League of Legends and decided to play a few rounds to relax.She would continue working after dinner.When Xyla logged into the game, she saw that members of Team XS were all online.She didn’t plan on playing with them, so she prepared to play on her own.But before she could choose the game mode, Alex sent her a message. “Boss, you’re finally online!”“Yeah, what are you up to?” she asked.“I’m doing a livestream,” he replied.“Okay, keep it up.”“Do you want to play a match together? I’ll play as your Support. I’m very good at it,” he stated.Right the
“Yes,” Alex replied.“Fine. Since she’s your boss, you’d naturally play as her Support. Umm, nice to meet you, Xyla,” The One said.“Nice to meet you, Xyla. Sorry about being rude earlier. I’m a huge fan of your good looks and skills,” Xin said.“Xyla, can I add you as my friend? I’ll do whatever you ask me to,” Crazy spoke up.“Me, too. I’m very good at playing as Support as well. Please add me.”Xyla Quest instantly smiled when she saw how enthusiastic everyone seemed.She had a charming smile.“Sure, you can all add me later,” Summer replied.“I have the eSports legend herself on my friend list. I feel like I’m glowing!” The One said.“I feel like my entire house is glowing! I’m so lucky,” Xin said.“I feel like my entire house is floating in the sky,” Crazy said, not to be outdone.Xyla didn’t know how to respond.“…” Summer replied.“…” Alex replied.On Alex’s livestream channel—“Hahaha! These are talented people in the world of streamers. Crazy, Xin and The One ce
Xyla Quest hadn’t used Kalista as her hero for a while now, so she made that her choice.Subsequently, the other players also selected their heroes, and then the game began.Alex and Xyla became engrossed with it once it started, both using their impressive skills to barrage their way through the bottom lane. Within ten minutes, they managed to destroy one of their enemy’s Inhibitors.Four enemy heroes came to surround them the moment it was destroyed, but none of their teammates could teleport to them.Their teammates promptly started making their way toward them on foot when they saw that they had been surrounded.Xyla and Alex were the two pillars of the team. They couldn’t afford to die.However, neither of them panicked.Instead, they both calmly faced their four opponents, and with their accurate maneuvers, they managed to dodge all the skills from their opponents while attacking them in return.They managed to kill all four of their opponents together, even with full hea
Xyla Quest saw herself in silver armor. She was running for her life in the middle of nowhere with Sophie Kenwick, with countless soldiers chasing after them from behind.Sophie, clad in a traditional robe, was running in front of Xyla, looking visibly nervous.There was dust everywhere.Those soldiers, who were carrying bows and arrows, were shouting for them to stop running, firing arrow after arrow at them. In such a critical circumstance, Xyla gave her all to escape with Sophie. Until an arrow pierced through her neck, spilling blood, but yet she continued to run and tried to protect the girl.That was where the flashback ended.The vision made Xyla feel even more curious about her past, convinced that it was a vivid memory from her past life.She was also sure that she was somehow related to Sophie, not only to the nine-tailed demon fox.From her attire in that vision, she didn’t seem like an ordinary woman but perhaps a female commander.She also seemed to have died for
On the livestream channel—“Does having money let someone do whatever they want?”“I can’t think of any other explanation.”“That’s bullsh*t. Does Alex look like the kind of person who could be bribed by money? He’s always been a good kid in front of Xyla, okay?”“Alex is so adorable in front of Xyla. I’m jealous.”“Alex has never smiled at me like that. Indeed, rich people are different from the rest.”Xyla skimmed through the comments briefly before turning off the livestream channel just in time for the game to start.Xyla replied to Alex directly in the game. “You’re welcome.”“I won’t disappoint you, Boss,” Alex said.“I believe you. Keep it up,” Xyla replied.“Yes, of course.”On the livestream channel—“Alex is particularly chatty in front of Xyla. He normally doesn’t even grunt when replying to other people.”“I’m sure Xyla has no regrets in life.”“Alex, do you secretly have a crush on your boss?”Alex glanced at the screen briefly, but he didn’t acknowledge the
In the base, Xyla Quest and Alex led their teammates to attack their enemy's base without even fighting the dragon.Their exciting gameplay thoroughly impressed the professional gamers and commentators, leading everyone to start offering gifts.Once the game had ended, Alex invited her to join his team again, which she immediately accepted.Since they worked perfectly with their teammates from the last round, Alex invited them as well. Once the team was complete, they all chose their best champions. Xyla chose to stick with Kalista, while Alex changed his hero to Tahm Kench.The Top Solo player chose Vladimir, the Mid Solo chose Leblanc, and the Jungler chose Nidalee.It was a strong formation.Once the game started, they presented everyone with yet another exciting visual feast.All five opponents directly surrounded Xyla and Alex at the bottom lane as soon as the match started. The two of them managed to stand their ground using excellent maneuvers.At a crucial moment, tho
“No,” Xyla Quest replied.“In that case, I’ll continue cooking. Call me whenever you need me,” Stanley Batton said.“Okay.”He then made his way back to the kitchen. Xyla’s teammates could hear their conversation as the microphone picked up everything, even the audience on Alex's livestream channel unbeknownst to them.On the livestream channel—“Stanley is so considerate in his private life.”“Ahh, I’m so jealous of their romance.”“He still needs to cook for his wife at home despite being a powerful man, haha!”“Good husbands always belong to other people! Sob!” “I feel like Stanley is Xyla’s slave. How can such a good husband exist?”“They’re the best couple in the world. Xyla is the luckiest woman alive. I want to become her. Nobody stops me!”Meanwhile, Xyla remained oblivious to the comments made.Completely engrossed with the game, Xyla had no idea how many people were envious of her or how many women wished to become Mrs. Stanley Batton right then.Everyone was
