As the saying went, many hands make light work. The Batton family made a table full of food in a blink of an eye. There were about eighteen dishes. When all the food was served, Wilson Batton and Ron Batton arrived at the doorstep. The big family had a whale of a time at dinner. After the meal, Wilson, Josh Batton, and Stanley Batton gathered around the coffee table to play chess. Ron watched them from the side. On the other hand, Xyla Quest, Sharon Lindt, and Catherine Batton played Honor of Kings excitedly. When all the family members met, their happiness knew no bounds. Xyla’s performance in the game was as impressive as usual. Sharon and Catherine could not stop praising her. Under Xyla's guidance, the three of them only took thirteen minutes to win the game. Sharon’s eyes brimmed with admiration and adoration when she saw the word ‘victory’ across her phone screen. “You’re awesome, Xyla! How did you dodge the attacks so smoothly? If I had half of your talents, I

Stanley Batton remained silent the entire time. The room was so quiet one could hear a pin drop. After the pulse check, Ron Batton let out a deep sigh. “You’d better go find that guy once more…”“I know.” Stanley Batton nodded. “I’m going tomorrow.”“I’ll stay here with you until you get better,” Ron added.“I’m sorry for making you worried, Grandpa.” Stanley frowned slightly. Ron sighed and gently patted his shoulder, his eyes rimmed with red. “Silly kid, I’m your Grandpa. Of course, I’m worried about you. Unlike your siblings, you’ve gone through a lot since you were a kid. Sigh…” “Are you sure you want to hide it from Xyla?” Ron continued, “She’ll find out about it anyway.” “Let’s just hide it for now. At least she’s happy that way, right?” Stanley added, “You should get some rest, Grandpa. It’s getting late.” Sighing once more, Ron got up from the couch and went upstairs. Stanley did not follow him. He reached for the teapot on the coffee table and poured himself a c

“Atlantis,” Extraordinary Geo replied. “What a coincidence! Me too,” Cloud Piercer said. “?????”Never in her life had she imagined that guy was in the same city as her. They were so close to each other, after all.“Shall we meet at Deep Ocean Western Cuisine at 8 p.m. tomorrow?” Cloud Piercer asked.Deep Ocean Western Cuisine… It was a high-end restaurant in Atlantis… One would have to spend at least a thousand dollars there. “Okay,” Extraordinary Geo sent. “I’ll let you know again after I book a private room for us.”“Okay, sure.”Georgie Clementine started to get nervous after accepting his invitation. She was going to meet her crush for the first time tomorrow. She did not have the faintest idea of how he looked like nor what kind of person he was. She did not know if he was the kind of young, capable man she imagined. She wondered if it would be awkward when they met each other. “Have some rest. See you tomorrow,” Cloud Piercer said.“Okay, bye,” Extraordin

After the meal, Xyla Quest got into her red Maserati.She used the mirror in her car to put on some simple makeup. After that, she turned on her car engine and drove off into traffic.At two o’clock, Xyla punctually arrived at Goldfield Plaza.Just as she parked, she saw Georgie Clementine in front of the shopping mall’s entrance. Georgie was looking down at her phone and playing something on it.Georgie wore a set of bright rose-red formal attire with a white shirt on the inside. Her hair was pulled back into a bun on one side, and she had intricate makeup on. Just by standing there, she had attracted a lot of attention from the men around.Xyla picked up her platinum Hermes purse before quickly walking out of her car and over to Georgie. “Let’s go…”While speaking, Xyla naturally wrapped her hand around Georgie’s arm.Georgie slowly put her phone away and led Xyla into the shopping mall.“You said you wanted to meet someone important. Who is that? Are you meeting your potenti

Xyla Quest immediately gave Georgie Clementine the thumbs up. “Go with this one. It looks very good…”Georgie smiled and looked at her dress. She then turned around and looked at her reflection in the mirror.Indeed, it looked very good on her. Georgie was very satisfied.When Henry Armstrong and the young lady walked out from the LV store directly across, he immediately saw Georgie.Seeing her in the bright red dress thoroughly stunned him.“Hey… Let’s go. What are you looking at? Let’s check out Dior…” The young lady dragged Henry along as she ran to Dior’s store.Henry didn’t say anything and passively allowed the young lady to drag him forward…***At seven o’clock, Georgie finished all her work. She walked into her resting room and took a quick shower.After that, she pulled her hair back into a one-sided bun and put on some intricate makeup. She then changed into her new dress and a pair of silver high heels.Georgie stood in front of the dressing mirror. After making s

After thinking back, Georgie Clementine realized that Henry Armstrong did see her playing Heroes Assemble before.Hence, it wasn’t unlikely that he intentionally got close to her in the game so that he could get closer to her in real life.After recalling a little more, Georgie realized that Cloud Piercer had started getting close to her quite suddenly.Combining all these facts, Georgie felt confident that she was right.Henry did it on purpose.Indeed, he was a womanizer, and he had many ways to get the women he wanted.Before meeting Cloud Piercer, Georgie Clementine used to have many wonderful fantasies. However, all of that vanished now.What kind of future would she have with a womanizer?Earlier in the day, he had brought an underage young lady to go shopping. At night, he came to see his in-game wife.Could a person like this make anyone happy?Georgie glanced at him coldly. “You couldn’t get close to me in real life. Is that why you pretended to be someone else in th

“But you already got married to me. You must be responsible for that,” Henry Armstrong said.No matter what happened, he was going to stick with Georgie Clementine.Georgie’s face darkened. “I got married to you in a game. It’s all made up.”“I don’t care. Whatever it is, you must be responsible for me… Honey…” Henry said.Georgie felt extremely helpless. “Henry, can you show some decency? Who’s your wife?”He looked like a very presentable man, but was he so unreasonable?“You… Didn’t I always call you this in the game? You didn’t refuse me back then. In fact, you also called me honey in the game…” Henry said.Georgie couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him. “That’s because I didn’t know it was you… If I had known, I wouldn’t have even talked to you,” she said.“Things have already gone this far. Let’s just keep going even if it was wrong… Honey…” Henry said.“Don’t call me ‘honey’,” Georgie uttered.“Honey…” Henry repeated.Georgie remained silent.“Honey, you’re already h

After feeling another sharp pain in his wrist, Henry Armstrong hissed. He then carefully moved his wrist a little.This was the first time he met a woman who was this difficult to pursue.After a long while, the pain in his wrist finally faded.He immediately opened WeChat and sent Georgie Clementine a message. “I won’t give up. I’m serious about it this time,” he said.However, when his message was sent out, Henry was stunned.There was a striking red exclamation mark at the end of his message.The notification below explained that his message didn’t successfully reach the recipient.This meant Georgie had blocked him…Henry let out a long, helpless sigh. “She’s really cruel…” He murmured to himself.***On the busy road, Georgie’s white Lamborghini overtook the cars around it.She was driving with one hand while her other hand was lazily pressed against her chin as her elbow rested on the car’s window frame.With her car window completely rolled down, breezes with the sce
