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
Xyla Quest couldn’t be bothered to argue with Mary Sullivan. She calmly stepped into the company.Throughout the entire process, Xyla didn’t even look at Mary again.Her behavior made Mary even angrier.Mary instantly ran after Xyla. “Xyla Quest… Are you looking down on me right now? Don’t think you’re so great just because you got married to Stanley Batton. That doesn’t mean you can look down on others. I’m telling you, I will definitely get into this company and became a celebrity,” Mary uttered sourly.Ding—The doors to a private elevator opened.As soon as Sebastian Brenand walked out of the elevator, he saw Mary pestering Xyla. He also heard what Mary said.He immediately sauntered up to Mary. “Allow me to introduce myself. I’m the boss of King Entertainment, and I’m also Stanley Batton’s good friend. Due to your rudeness to Xyla, I hereby announce that King Entertainment will not accept you.“You said… Getting married to Stanley isn’t a big deal, didn’t you? I’m sorry bu
Mary Sullivan then looked in the car mirror at her face that had thick makeup on. “If this place won’t have me, some other place would!” she murmured to herself.Although Mary knew she had a terrible past, she believed that becoming an artist wasn’t a problem at all with her conditions.She believed that there would be a company that wanted her.These days, her father was still angry with her, and he barely gave her any money. She basically depended on funds her mother secretly gave her for her expenses.To avoid being discovered by her father, her mother didn’t dare to give her too much money.The amount Mary was given was barely enough for her to feed herself.She needed to make money of her own, and entering the entertainment industry was the fastest way to make money…***When Xyla Quest entered Sebastian Brenand’s office, Sebastian led her to a seat in front of the coffee table.The two sat facing each other.On the coffee table was a professional brewing kit.Sebastian
Dave Wilkins, who was currently a popular male singer in the country, was good at both singing and dancing.Not only did he sing, but he also acted. In the musical industry, he was a renowned vocalist. In the TV and film industry, he was a film star.These qualities made him very compatible with Mel Conlay.Most importantly, Dave also had the will to participate in variety shows to increase his popularity.“Dave Wilkins…? He’s pretty good… Not only is he handsome, but he’s also very compatible with Mel…” Sebastian Brenand said.“When the time comes, we’ll name them as the Mel-Dave Couple. See… It sounds good,” Sebastian added. Xyla Quest laughed a little. “It does sound good.”When Xyla thought about all the work she still needed to deal with later, she slowly stood up. “I have to get back to work. A lot of stuff has piled up, and I need to deal with them,” she said.“Alright,” Sebastian said.After Xyla left, the huge office became quiet once again.Sebastian’s smile disapp
