Xyla intended to look for Five Batton so that she could return five hundred thousand dollars to him. However, she then realized that he had never given her his contact details.Since too many bad things were happening in the day, and the fact that Stanley had left in a hurry, she forgot about returning him the money.Although she now recalled it, there was no way she could transfer the money to him. She could only hope to bump into him again in the future.If they did meet again, she would return him five hundred thousand dollars with certainty.***At ten o’clock in the morning, Xyla woke up naturally.After stretching her arms on her comfortably soft bed, she slowly sat up.Her long, black, wavy hair untangled around her to give her a somewhat lazy appearance. Right then, she looked like a lazy yet expensive cat, which was enjoying an afternoon nap in the summer.Beep. Beep. Beep.Xyla’s phone began to ring. When Xyla glanced lazily at her phone next to her bed, she saw that it was f
This was the first time in twenty-eight years someone thought of Stanley as a poor person.“I have some savings. I borrowed the rest from my boss,” Stanley answered calmly.“How much did you borrow?” Xyla asked.“Approximately three million dollars. I’ll pay him back over time,” he added.Xyla did not hesitate to shove the car keys into his pocket before gently patting the car’s hood. “Listen to me and return this immediately. It’s not worth getting into debt over a car.“Besides, haven’t I told you not to pay me for the car? You were the one who saved my life. How could I ask you to pay for my car?” Xyla seemed determined.“If you don’t want it, throw it away,” Stanley said calmly before returning the car keys to her and walking away.Xyla was truly dumbfounded. She had no idea why this person was in such a hurry to return her money. If he had a lot of spare cash, she might have been able to understand. However, the fact was that he was not exactly wealthy.Xyla immediately ran after
After breakfast, Xyla headed over to her company directly.As soon as Xyla sat down in her office, someone knocked on the door. Georgie Clementine walked in with a large pile of documents before placing them down in front of Xyla.“These all require your signature. Oh yeah, I have already arranged everything with Josh Batton. He will sing two songs before the launch of Imperial Prime next Tuesday.”“OK.” Xyla smiled as she gestured an ‘OK’ sign with her hand.“If someone as famous as him is there, the venue will definitely be packed. Consequently, I’m sure the sales will go smoothly. As long as you perform well in managing this new development project, you will have a bright future.” Georgie was very confident about Xyla.Xyla chuckled softly. “I hope what you say comes true.”“Oh, yeah. Have you checked Weibo’s most popular topic on the internet today?” Georgie asked curiously.“Why?” Xyla seemed confused.“The story about your sister is still the most popular topic on the internet.”
Xyla Quest stopped thinking about it as she focused her attention on work once more after putting her phone down.Meanwhile, in the Dragon Group CEO’s office, Stanley Batton leaned lazily against his revolving chair as he looked at Xyla’s social media page.With a look of focus on his face, he would occasionally smile without realizing it.He was wearing only a white shirt and a necktie tucked neatly under his collar after taking his coat off. He seemed incomparably noble.Xyla’s social media page was rather interesting. Usually, she would share little things about her day, where she went, what she ate, and what mood she was in. In fact, she would even include a picture for each post.The words she used in the texts were usually heartwarming and uplifting.However, her posts only dated back to a month ago. After going through the posts from the current month, he came to an end.Therefore, he exited from her social media page. Afterward, he glanced briefly at Xyla’s messages, which prom
“The sun is already up. Why are you still speaking as if you are in a dream?” Emily rolled her eyes at Xyla.Xyla could not be bothered even to speak. She moved past Emily and walked upstairs.Beep. Beep. Beep.Emily was about to run after Xyla to continue mocking her. However, right then, her phone rang. The browser had sent her a push notification about Josh Batton’s latest news.Her jaws nearly dropped when she read the title. “Josh Batton will be attending Imperial Prime’s launching ceremony tomorrow!”Emily was in a state of complete disbelief.With a contract worth eight million dollars, Josh Batton should only go as far as shooting some photos or a video to promote the launch. He should not have agreed to attend the launching ceremony.What was going on? Why was her idol being so nice to Xyla? Emily was beginning to feel jealous again.On top of that, she began to feel worried. What if Josh Batton did attend the event, and his fans ended up buying all of the units being sold?Ho
“Just you wait and see if I can do it,” Xyla Quest responded calmly. She did not even bother looking at Emily Quest.“Alright. If you can do it, I will broadcast myself doing a handstand.” Emily rolled her eyes at Xyla.“Get back to your room right now. You are not allowed to talk to your elder sister like that,” Jeremy Quest scoffed.Emily immediately went quiet and made her escape.***Due to Josh Batton’s presence, a huge audience turned up at Imperial Prime’s launching ceremony.By four o’clock in the morning, fans had already surrounded the temporarily enacted stage.Since Josh Batton had already reminded his fans to abide by the rules, everyone was cooperative. There was a perfectly empty road carved out, which allowed people to walk through to the property development’s sales gallery.When it was time for the official launch at eight o’clock in the morning, thousands had gathered. Although fans were all packed like sardines, nothing chaotic seemed to have taken place.With Josh
Josh’s fans were going wild. Every single one of them was screaming at the top of their lungs. They had lost their senses—“Ahhh…! Ahhh…!”“Josh Batton! Josh Batton!!!”When Emily Quest saw Josh, her eyes lit up immediately. She could not contain her excitement.It had been a long time since she last went to his live concert. Emily could not help but think that her idol had become even more handsome. His look today was extremely attractive!Emily was like a teenage girl who had just met her crush.Accompanied by the sound of music and screaming from the crowd, Josh began dancing with one of his female dancers while he sang.The upbeat music and his alluring movements made all the off-stage fans scream at the top of their lungs.Everyone was hyped.Meanwhile, off-stage, Xyla felt just as excited as everyone else when she saw Josh performing. She began screaming along with the audience.Simultaneously, ‘#Josh Dances#’ soon became the second most popular topic on the internet. The word ‘e
Although Emily Quest had spent so much money on Josh Batton, she never received this kind of treatment from him. Each time, she could only look at Josh from afar. Now, Xyla was able to do something Emily could only dream about with ease. What right did Xyla have to do that?After the ribbon was cut, Josh proceeded to leave while Xyla walked into the sales gallery behind her with a group of people.When Emily saw this, she hurriedly got out of her car and made her way through the crowd to the sales gallery. Emily was here to watch Xyla get embarrassed and see how downtrodden Xyla would be once she realized the harsh reality.Suddenly, the sales gallery became packed. When Xyla saw that the salespeople were fully occupied, she decided to join them as she began introducing the property’s information to customers.Emily watched with disdain. However, instead of moving closer, she stayed by the door and observed silently.‘So what if there are a lot of people? They are just here to enjoy th
