Once Stanley Batton sat down, he naturally sat Xyla Quest on his lap while he rested his chin against her shoulder. “What are you looking at?” He asked.Xyla naturally leaned into him and moved her phone screen closer to him. “Look at this.”“Has Alex officially transferred?” Stanley asked.“Yeah, it’s all thanks to you. If it weren’t for you, Henry wouldn’t have been willing to give Alex to me. Now, everyone is calling Henry out online… I wonder how he’ll feel when he reads all that,” Xyla said.“He won’t mind,” Stanley said.“Really?” Xyla looked earnestly into his eyes.“Well, on his side, he’s already agreed with a strong top-lane solo player. That guy will join their team this summer…” Stanley said.“Who? Is it Ice Cream?” Xyla asked.This person was a talented teenager who had suddenly appeared recently.In Country H’s server, he was nearly unbeatable. He was courageous in battles and controlled his characters very well. In fact, he somewhat resembled Alex back in those
In the visiting room, Xyla Quest sat quietly in a chair. She was playing with her phone while she waited for Emily Quest.In front of her was a thick glass wall that divided the large space into two parts; internal and external.Not long after Xyla sat down, Emily was escorted over by two prison guards.Emily’s hair had already been cut very short. She was wearing a gray prison uniform with an orange vest on the outside.Without any makeup on, Emily was a sore sight. She didn’t look like her usual glamorous self.The way Emily looked at Xyla was full of hostility. It seemed almost as if Emily was a ghost that crawled out of hell’s pit.Even through the thick glass, Xyla could still feel Emily’s body was emanating a murderous aura.Xyla was still as calm as ever, and her heart was beating steadily.Xyla looked indifferently at Emily before slowly picking up the small receiver in front of her and placing it by her ear.Emily was soon pressed onto a chair. She also picked up the
Xyla Quest didn’t know about any of this at all, and she couldn’t possibly have done it…Who did it?“When did this happen?” Xyla asked.When Emily Quest heard this, she instantly sneered. “You really can act. Didn’t you do this as an act of revenge because I used your blueprint design? The timing of what happened to me was too much of a coincidence… Even if I can’t find proof, I know it’s you. Stop trying to wash your hands clean,” Emily said.Emily’s words revealed to Xyla another piece of information.This meant that the incident happened after Xyla competed with Emily in the ocean theme park blueprint design competition.Who did it then?It couldn’t have been Stanley Batton.If it were, he would have told Xyla.However, if it wasn’t Stanley, who could it be?And why did Tom Sullivan actually remain quiet after finding out about all of that? Why didn’t he cause a scene?Tom already hated Emily. He didn’t have any reason not to use it against her.Also, Emily was already
Xyla Quest was truly curious about how Tom Sullivan felt when he found out about everything.What did Emily Quest possess that actually forced Tom to put up with the things she did?In fact, Tom was even willing to continue maintaining their relationship as husband and wife.However, although Xyla was curious, she didn’t want to investigate any further.That was because it didn’t matter anymore, no matter what the answers were…Today, the feud between Xyla, Tom, and Emily should finally come to an end.Both had already been punished as they should be.Needless to say, Emily was punished harshly enough.Likewise, Tom also had nothing in possession today. In fact, with Emily having something to control him with, he’d be forced to stay with the woman he hated for a very long time.This was a bad enough punishment.Xyla felt that it was enough.She decided not to care about these two people anymore because everything had ended the best way possible.At this point, she should le
Suddenly, the phone vibrated. The vibration awakened Tom Sullivan. Seeing that the detention center was calling him, Tom reluctantly picked up the call. “Hubby…” Emily Quest’s irritating voice pierced his ears. Tom’s face darkened instantaneously. He was in a fractious mood. His sleep-deprived brain was going in circles as he was too high last night. A severe headache almost tore his head apart. On top of that, Emily’s ‘surprise’ call had worsened his headache. “What do you want?”“Hubby, I have something important to tell you. Come to the detention center tomorrow. We’ll talk in person.“You know what’s the consequences if you don’t come. By the way, don’t ever think of killing me. I’ve already passed the evidence of you taking drugs to someone I trust. Your misdeeds will be exposed to the public even if I die,” Emily added. Tom was going to refuse her request. However, Emily’s warning had rendered him speechless.In fact, he had thought of quitting drugs because he
“Have you read the novel before?” Sebastian Brenand asked. “Yeah, I have.” “There’s a fairy called Elvenia in the story. You know her, right?”Xyla Quest nodded in response. She was aware of this character. She was the most beautiful woman in Wingardium. Her beauty had impressed both the mortal and immortal worlds. She was the daughter of God Aljar. Though she was just a minor role in the story, she had left a lasting impression on the readers. The author had once mentioned that she was so beautiful that everyone else would fade into the background when she smiled. Elvenia had only appeared in a few chapters in the web novel. Three hundred years ago, she fell in love with a human when she visited the mortal world. However, their relationship had violated the rules in Wingardium. Aljar was furious about it. He ordered the killing of the mortal man and took Elvenia back to Wingardium. He locked her up in her room for three hundred years as her punishment for disrespe
“Stan won’t mind about it, right?” Sebastian Brenand grinned. “I call the shots at home. No worries,” Xyla Quest replied playfully. Sebastian gave her a thumbs-up. “Cool. I respect you.”“Have you gotten over her yet? I notice that you’re getting much better now.” Xyla asked concernedly.“Oh yeah, I’ll have someone to send the contracts regarding your investment and your role as Elvenia to your office later.” Sebastian changed the subject. “Alright, sure.” Xyla nodded lightly. “I’d better get going. I’ve disturbed you for too long.” Sebastian immediately got up from the couch. “Let’s go. I’ll walk you to the parking lot.” Xyla stole a glance at his desk full of files and papers. “It’s okay. I guess you have more important things waiting for you to do.”Following that statement, she stalked out of the office and took the elevator to the first floor. Her phone vibrated as soon as she got into the car. Seeing Ron Batton’s name on the screen, Xyla immediately answered the
Xyla Quest saw a pale young man lying on the ground not far away from her. A beautiful young girl with a double ponytail was kneeling next to the man. The girl was shaking the man’s body anxiously, her fair chubby face full of tears. Xyla immediately hurried to them and knelt beside the man to take his pulse. She took a closer look at the man’s face. It was ashen and tinged with green. His lips were pale, and his dark circles were heavy. The man was tall but slim.He was a handsome guy, even if he looked a little haggard at the moment. Judging from his pulse and complexion, Xyla was convinced that he was poisoned. It seemed that he had taken in a high concentration of sodium cyanide. Sodium cyanide was extremely toxic. The golden timeframe to save someone from cyanide poisoning was within ten to twenty minutes. He would die once they missed the golden timeframe. There were only two ways to cure cyanide poisoning. The first one was using Chinese medicine to deto
