Getting no response from Emily Quest, Tom Sullivan pulled out the room’s key card from his pocket. He placed it on the door lock and opened the door without hesitation. The door slowly opened.Emily’s heart was in her throat. In the very next second, her naked body came into Tom’s view. Pure disgust was all that was in his mind at that instant. Without love, there was nothing about her that could affect his emotion. He did not even care about what she did just now. The disgust in his eyes only intensified with each second he looked at her. Just how did he find this slut attractive in the past?His heartless gaze pierced through Emily’s heart as though it was a sharp blade. Agony ripped through her skin, threatening to take her life away.“I heard that you got a room with someone and did some strip dances. I’m here to check it out and, by the by, put my cards on the table.” Tom remained as cold as ever.Upon hearing that, Emily was completely panicked. Like a crazy wom
Apart from Xyla Quest, Emily Quest really couldn’t think of anyone else.Xyla was the only person who had any reason to do this.“Alright… If that’s the case, I admit to all of this. But it’s all because of you, isn’t it? You refused to touch me, and I feel very empty because of that…“That’s why, I have hooked up with other people. I’m still so young. How could I possibly abstain from sex all the time? Although I have cheated on you physically, I only have feelings for you.“To me, physical and emotional attachment can be separated. My heart has always belonged to you and you only. I only love you,” Emily said with an earnest look in her eyes.Indeed, these were the thoughts from the bottom of her heart.At this point, Tom Sullivan couldn’t believe what he heard anymore.He couldn’t understand how anyone in the world could be this thick-skinned and shameless…The more Emily behaved like this, the more Tom missed Xyla.Xyla would never do something like this. She had always be
Tom Sullivan snorted coldly before turning around to look at Emily Quest. “What do you have to say?” he asked.“You’ve been taking drugs all the time these days… Don’t think I’m unaware of it,” Emily said with a cold snort.Tom’s facial expression changed immediately. “What nonsense are you saying?”Half a month ago, Emily smelled drugs on Tom when he came home one night.Since Emily knew someone who did drugs previously, she was familiar with that scent, and she was also susceptible to it.Back then, she had already suspected that Tom was doing drugs. However, she never found any concrete proof.Now, she had no choice but to try tricking him.If she managed to make him confess, she’d be able to blackmail him into not getting a divorce with her.“Do you think your father would entrust you with the Sullivan family’s business if he found out? Won’t you have to go to jail if the police found out?“Do you think I’m talking nonsense? I’m going to call the cops and tell them that yo
Xyla Quest finally understood how being away from Stanley Quest made them miss each other even more.Late into the night, Stanley reluctantly stopped having sex with Xyla. Carefully, he held her in his arms.Xyla allowed him to hold her. She felt as if the bones in her body had melted away, and she didn’t dare to even move.Stanley gently caressed her face before affectionately giving her a peck on the forehead. “Do you want to take a bath?” He asked.“Yes…” After answering him, Xyla’s gaze unintentionally landed on Stanley’s right arm.She was able to see several clear needle scars near his elbow.Xyla’s eyes vibrated, and she sat herself upright before tugging at his right arm to examine the needle scars around his elbow. “What happened? Why are there needle scars?”“It’s nothing… I caught a cold when I was overseas. They had to give me a drip several times,” Stanley said.“Why didn’t you tell me you got sick?” Xyla asked.“I didn’t want you to worry…” Stanley said.After t
After approximately half an hour, Stanley Batton finished cooking a hot bowl of seafood noodles.Carefully, he brought it into the bedroom.As soon as he did so, the entire room was filled with a fragrant scent.By now, Stanley had already fully recovered. He looked like his usual self.Xyla Quest, who was occupied with scrolling through Weibo, felt hungry when she smelled the scent of food.She immediately put her phone down and shifted to the side of the bed.Very quickly, Stanley placed the bowl of noodles on the nightstand. “Eat…” He said.As usual, the noodles he cooked had the perfect look, smell, and taste.It was as if the hot steam from the bowl of noodles was able to make Xyla’s chest feel warm instantly.“Aren’t you going to eat?” Xyla asked when she saw that there was only one pair of chopsticks.“Nah… I’m tired,” Stanley said before lifting the duvet away and lying down. He closed his eyes right away.“Take the bowl out once you finish eating. I’ll clean it tomo
When Xyla Quest saw that the call was from Georgie Clementine, she immediately picked up and put the phone on handsfree.“What’s up, Georgie?” Xyla asked as she continued to dab foundation liquid on her face using an egg-shaped sponge.“The negative media related to your sister, Emily, is still there… More and more people are criticizing her…” Georgie said.“Is that so?” Xyla asked.“Not only has it not been removed, but it’s also even made it to the first spot on the list of trending topics… Did Stanley do it on purpose to mess with her?” Georgie said.“Perhaps…” Xyla chuckled.Apart from Stanley Batton, nobody else would likely do this.“Oh, right. I have some business to talk to you about. It’s the finals for Teenage Idol tonight… Do you want to attend the live event?” Georgie added.After a series of competitions, ten remaining finalists in Teenage Idol after the rest of the candidates were eliminated.The only people from X Entertainment who remained were Jay Corben and M
“Really? I didn’t come to the office yesterday. Did I actually miss a good show?”“Exactly… President Xyla was so cool yesterday. When her husband showed up, he was pretty awesome too.”“Really?”“Of course… I’m so envious of her. My favorite idol, Josh Batton, even liked her post on Weibo. I’m so jealous.”“Oh, yeah… Did you know, this morning… Her husband…”The ladies immediately became quiet when they saw Xyla Quest. After that, they smiled at Xyla.Xyla politely smiled and nodded at them before she continued walking to the elevator.“President Xyla… Keep it up…” A pretty lady behind the reception desk said while she looked admiringly at Xyla.“Sure, I will.” Xyla smiled and started walking to the elevator.When she entered her office, she was shocked…Her desk was full of shopping bags of various sizes with LV’s logo on them. There was barely any space left.Xyla quickly walked up to her desk and carefully checked what was inside each of those bags.Most of the bags con
Each of them was holding a lit banner or poster of their favorite candidate…Some of them were also wearing headbands with the name of their favorite candidate printed on them.Everyone seemed excited.There were ten posters of the ten respective candidates in front of the stadium’s entrance.Every single candidate looked stunning in each of the posters.When Xyla Quest arrived in her Maserati with several Mercedes-Benz Cayenne security cars behind her, she immediately attracted a lot of attention from people around her.After parking her car seamlessly into a designated parking spot, she put on her cap and got out of the car.Very quickly, several Cayenne cars also parked nearby. Ten bodyguards walked out of the cars and promptly approached Xyla to help make way for her.When everyone saw Xyla, they started taking pictures and videos of her with their phones, and they published these on their social media accounts, including Weibo.Surrounded by bodyguards, Xyla displayed Geo
