The pretty lady quickly stepped forward and lowered her head carefully. “I’m sorry for being ignorant, Ms. Quest. I shouldn’t have treated you that way. I was wrong… Please forgive me…” She said.“Ms. Quest, I’ll fire this employee who pissed you off… I wonder if you’d be happy with that?” Christian Hall asked carefully.When the pretty lady heard the word ‘fire’, her face turned even paler.She quickly looked up at Xyla Quest frightfully. “I’m truly sorry. Truly, I am. Please have mercy on me!”When Xyla heard how the woman was apologizing, she instantly felt a little less angry.Since the woman had apologized, Xyla didn’t want to be completely ruthless.After all, it was difficult for everyone to earn a living.Xyla’s objective of doing this today was to teach this woman a lesson rather than making her lose her job.Xyla looked indifferently at the pretty lady. “And them too…” Xyla said.After saying that, Xyla looked at the female servant’s parents next to her.The pretty

With Christian Hall personally handling things, Xyla Quest’s request was very quickly sorted out.Once everything was taken care of, Xyla left the bank with the female servant’s parents.She first sent the couple home.After that, she returned to her own house with her group of bodyguards.When she drove her car into the courtyard, the sky was already turning dark.The lights in the courtyard were all switched on.Under the brilliant lights, the flowers and plants looked extraordinarily perfect.After checking her appearance using the mirror inside the car, Xyla walked into the house.As soon as she entered, she could smell the scent of a rich, creamy broth wafting through her nostrils.It instantly made Xyla crave food.She quickly followed the scent into the kitchen, only to find Stanley Batton carefully cleaning large prawns in front of the sink.There were all sorts of cleaned ingredients next to him on the kitchen top, including abalones, lobsters, lettuce, shiitake mus

Xyla Quest’s immediate reaction was to think that what happened earlier at the bank must have been shared on Weibo by someone else.Xyla instantly tapped on the link to find out more.All the comments were from some verified accounts with huge followings as well as marketing accounts. They wrote about how Xyla schooled a female manager at the bank for looking down on other people.Everyone pieced together everything that happened during the incident.One could say that this incident had stirred up a huge reaction.Many people were praising Xyla in the comment section.“Xyla really is beautiful and tough! I love her! This is how it should be done.”“Hahaha! I really wish I could see it in person. I already feel awesome from reading the article. I bet it’s even more awesome to see it in person, isn’t that right?”“My sister is domineering! The moral of the story is that we should never look down on others.”“I hope to find out how traumatized that director and that staff member

At this moment, a thought suddenly occurred to Xyla Quest. “Being afraid of something melting in one’s mouth, and also being afraid of it falling from one’s hand.”This was how much Stanley Batton doted on her. Xyla stood still without moving, allowing Stanley to wash her hands and wipe them dry for her.He was meticulous, almost as if he was cleaning dust off an antique item.After cleaning Xyla’s hands, Stanley picked her up like a princess and walked into the dining room. He then gently placed her in her usual seat.After that, Stanley sat down in his seat and placed the ingredients into the broth for Xyla.Throughout the process, Xyla was only responsible for eating.***After the wine and food, Xyla went into the study, switched on the computer, and checked her email.She wanted to find out if the top domestic and international hematologists she had emailed for help had replied to her.However, there was nothing in the mailbox except her work emails.Xyla let out a lon

After fooling around in the study for god knows how long, Stanley Batton reluctantly let go of Xyla Quest and carried her back to the master bedroom to take a shower together.After the shower, Xyla sat in front of the dressing table to put on her skincare products.Stanley, on the other hand, was sitting on the bed and looking at his phone.Stanley had nothing on except a white towel wrapped around his lower body.His perfect muscle lines were visible under the light.Xyla, on the other hand, was wearing a white, silk, high-cut nightgown with straps.Her hair naturally fell over her waist. Although she didn’t have any makeup, she still looked pretty as a fairy on earth.The duo’s delicate, cold, fair skin was covered with various splotches of red marks.Everything was a manifestation of how wild they were earlier.“Were you treated poorly at the bank today? Hmm?” Stanley was looking at a trending topic on Weibo about Xyla at the bank. His handsome face suddenly turned cold.

Xyla Quest instantly felt a sense of warmth spread in her heart. “Thank you, honey…” She said.“You’re welcome, darling. Whatever it is you want, I’ll make sure you have it…” Once again, Stanley Batton hugged Xyla tightly. He rubbed his distinctly shaped lips against her earlobe.This sentence made Xyla feel weak in the bones. At that moment, she felt as if her skin had been zapped by electricity and set on fire.Even her heart started to beat out of tempo.“Honey, meeting you is the luckiest thing that ever happened to me,” Xyla said.“Isn’t meeting you the luckiest thing that happened to me, too? Xyla Quest, I used to be impenetrable. This all changed when I met you. I’m willing to give you all my love in this lifetime, and I’ll be with you until the day we die,” Stanley enunciated each word as he looked deeply into her eyes.When Xyla heard all this, her eyes started to fill with tears.“Honey, you’re wonderful. I love you very much,” Xyla said.“I love you too, darling,” St

Zack Cassidy reported the information earnestly.Xyla Quest’s facial expression became increasingly somber.It looked like May Conner really was killed by that ‘master’.This ‘master’ really was omnipotently powerful. He could actually kill someone in prison with such ease.Stanley Batton had an equally somber expression on his face. “Go on…”“Detective Ritzer even said that Chimi Poison also originated from Memphis’ King of Poison, Sorax. Also, he added that Chimi Poison, Soul Devouring Potion, and Black Poison were all Sorax’s proud creations. Moreover, Sorax would never share it with outsiders. In fact, they had all nearly disappeared from the world,” Zack added.The word ‘Sorax’ made Xyla and Stanley’s hearts skip a beat.Up until now, the poisons used by that ‘master’ were all related to Sorax, who had already passed away long ago.Most importantly, these poisons were all invented by Sorax and were supposed to be kept a secret from outsiders. These poisons had also nearly

Meanwhile, Xyla Quest slowly sat down in front of the dressing table.She put on some light and natural-looking makeup that she usually preferred.At one glance, it seemed like she didn’t have any makeup on, but she still looked fresh.Xyla’s lips were naturally pinkish. For her makeup to appear even lighter, she didn’t put any lipstick on. Instead, she only applied a layer of colorless lip balm.Her perfectly defined lips, with a glossy finish, looked as sumptuous as fresh peach jelly.After pulling her hair back into a high ponytail and putting on a light pink hairband, Xyla went into the closet. She chose a pale pink, ruffled, strapless top, white denim shorts, and a pair of light pink high heels.Xyla walked up to the mirror with inlaid gold and diamonds. Her appearance was reflected in the mirror.The light pink looked good all in all and made Xyla seem gentle but not old-fashioned. It also made her skin appear unusually fair and delicate.In the mirror, she looked practic
