Xyla Quest was happy and excited about this as it meant she would be able to help countless leukemia patients in the future.Nobody would have to go bankrupt because of treatment costs ever again.While browsing, Xyla suddenly saw a new hot topic on the number one spot, ‘#The President talks about Resurrection Pill’s ingredients#’.Xyla instantly clicked on it, seeing a Weibo post the President had recently published—“The Resurrection Pill is made from various rare medicinal ingredients. Indeed, all the costs involved added up to five thousand.“I once asked how much it was going to retail for, and Xyla told me she’d set it at the cost price so that everyone could afford it. She hoped nobody would suffer from leukemia ever again.“On top of that, Quest Group can offer a full waiver for those who can’t afford to fork out five thousand dollars by submitting documents to prove your financial situation.”The President’s Weibo post was only published less than a minute ago, and ther

“What?” Xyla Quest asked in curiosity.“Stand up and look outside,” Sophie Kenwick immediately said. “What’s happening outside? Have the protesters left?” They should be gone by now since the whole matter was resolved. Xyla had turned the situation around.Sophie immediately shook her head. “I knew it. You’ve been busy at work, so you have no idea what’s happening. Hurry up, come and see.”Xyla glanced at her in confusion before standing up to walk over to the French windows.Looking down, she saw many people gathered downstairs, chanting something.Xyla was too far away to determine what they were shouting, let alone make sense of their unsynchronized voices.After paying close attention for a long while, she finally managed to pick up part of what they were saying—“Xyla is pretty and kind. Xyla, you’re an angel. We’re demons. Xyla, we’re truly sorry.”They were saying the same things even though they were barely synchronized.Xyla smiled as she listened, feeling enter

Sophie Kenwick followed Xyla Quest forward obediently.Wherever Xyla went, she would go.Sophie looked up, seeing Xyla’s pretty face from the side.Even with the barest makeup and a simple down jacket, Xyla was ridiculously beautiful and looked like a white peony in full bloom.She was noble and angelic, yet she also seemed unapproachable. Sophie couldn’t resist sighing and thinking, ‘She’s so pretty.’They took the elevator down to the first floor, where numerous employees had gathered in front of the main lobby’s french windows.When they saw Xyla, they instantly dispersed and disappeared within seconds…She led Sophie to the door, remaining tight-lipped.Outside, those people were still chanting along with the advertisement on the large screen. From up close, the crowd seemed larger than what she saw from upstairs, making things seem more spectacular.These people were deafening.Right then, someone spotted Xyla and began to shout excitedly. “Xyla is here!”As soon

Xyla Quest and the others looked toward where the sound had come from, but she could not see anything as there were too many people around her.Soon, people began stepping aside to make way for the woman.A tearful, middle-aged woman, who stood at the end of the crowd, appeared before Xyla.She recognized this woman as Maggie Carlton, a leukemia expert who once disparaged Xyla on Weibo.Maggie had been less than kind in her comments about Xyla previously, calling her out for being a terrible capitalist and a liar.She even said only fools would buy the Resurrection Pills and that whoever believed in Xyla would pay for their foolishness.Seeing how her demeanor had changed from being arrogant to humble in light of recent events made Xyla feel a little unnerved.Soon, Maggie quickly ran up to Xyla, falling to her knees directly in front of her before she could speak.Xyla’s eyes widened in surprise. “What are you doing?”“Xyla, you are amazing! Can you be my mentor? I’m willing

The tall, wealthy, and handsome men began speaking one after another—“Nice to meet you, Miss Quest. I’m the CEO of Stark Group. I’m here to thank you for curing my grandfather of his illness.”“I’m the CEO of Woolson Group. Thank you for getting rid of my mother’s illness.”“I’m-”They began introducing themselves one after another, then thanking Xyla Quest for rescuing their family members.By the time they finished, Xyla was holding multiple credit cards in her hands.Chuckling when she saw the thick stack of credit cards, she returned them to each of them. “Please, I'll accept your gratitude in words, but money isn’t necessary. I don’t need it.”The men laughed, saying they would allow Quest Group to earn a larger share of profits if they worked as partners in the future.Some even said they would prioritize artistes from X Entertainment should their companies invest in films or television dramas.Xyla chuckled. “We’ll discuss it next time.”The men were acting respectful

After returning to her office, Xyla Quest saw a brand new article on Weibo.It was related to Quest Group, X Entertainment, and Dragon Group’s stock price.After the Resurrection Pill was proven to be effective, its sales skyrocketed due to Xyla's favorable reputation in the country.Her positive image resulted in increased enthusiasm for all three companies' products, therefore driving up their stock prices.Xyla let out a long, satisfied sigh after seeing everything.Although she was happy with the outcome, she didn’t feel emotional on the inside since she was used to major incidents like this.Meanwhile, her office landline didn't stop ringing.Her secretary informed her that numerous media companies wanted to interview her, but she turned all of them down.She still had a bunch of work to sort out, and she didn’t want to deal with those media companies.Besides, the public had already accepted the Resurrection Pill. There was no need for her to utilize the media to expand

Where could one find a loving husband like Stanley Batton?However, the executive soon realized he had said something inappropriate. “I’m sorry, that was inappropriate. I got too excited and said the wrong thing.”“It’s fine,” Stanley replied.The guy was speechless as Stanley was very tolerant today.“All right, we’re done for the day. Nobody needs to work overtime today,” Stanley declared.Everyone cheered internally.Perhaps Xyla Quest could attain more accomplishments so that people would shower her with compliments, resulting in the staff being able to leave work on time daily.While everyone watched, Stanley took out his phone and dialed Xyla’s number. “Honey, what are you up to?”He sounded completely different from when he talked to other people.However, everyone had gotten used to it.They all exchanged glances before letting out a long sigh of relief.“I’m working. What about you?” she asked.“My meeting just ended, so I’m coming over to see you shortly,” he repl

Stanley Batton seemed to be separated from the rest by an invisible barrier despite being surrounded by people.When the reporters spotted him, they immediately launched a series of questions—“Mr. Batton, I have a question for you. How do you feel about your wife’s recent accomplishment?”“Mr. Batton, you must be ecstatic! Can I ask if Ms. Quest faced many difficulties in the process of creating this medicine?”“Mr. Batton, can I ask if Ms. Quest decided on the cost price on her own or if you both decided on it together?”“Mr. Batton, are you here to congratulate your wife on her success?”“Mr. Batton, how do you feel about your wife driving up your company’s stock price?” Stanley halted in his tracks when he heard the last question.Turning around slowly, he looked at the female reporter who asked the question.She stood in front of the crowd with a hopeful look in her eyes.The moment their eyes met, she was captivated by his gaze, her heart hammering in excitement.Stan
