“After enlarging the photo of the mysterious man next to Josh Batton, it looks like this man might be a rich guy. The clothes he’s wearing are all globally limited-edition Versace designs, and his shoes also look like a globally limited-edition design. As for his watch, that’s even more impressive. This is a watch from Bulgari. In fact, there is only a single design of this that’s worth eighty million dollars.”Below the text, there were several enlarged photos of the accessories worn by the mysterious man.Moreover, the marketing account even carefully marked out the brand and cost of each accessory.The comment section of this marketing account was also flooded.“The things this man is wearing are worth the value of several houses.”“This explains why Josh Batton’s status in the entertainment industry has been unshakable.

“Obviously, she’s just a stand-in wife for a gay couple, but she’s keeping up an act and pretending she’s a happy little princess. Xyla Quest, I’ve got to give it to you.”“Hahaha… I can’t stop laughing for my life. It turns out you’re married to a gay man, aren’t you? Why are you still showing off how happy you are every day?”“Tsk, tsk, tsk… Truly a pitiful woman. What’s the point of being married to Stanley Batton? He doesn’t even like you.”“No matter how good you look, and how great a body you have, none of it matters if you don’t have a good husband who loves you.”“Xyla Quest, I truly feel embarrassed for your parents. Does your family know that you are married to a gay man?”“Stanley Batton, this is considered an extra-marital affair. Xyla Quest, you truly do deserve pity.”Every word Xyla Quest saw was like a sharp needle that poked at her eyes.She wasn’t at all surprised that everyone would send her private messages like these.Many people were like this sometimes.
Josh Batton nodded. He agreed with Stanley Batton. On top of that, he did not want his scandals to cause any trouble to Xyla Quest. “Alright then. Do you guys want to clarify it? Or do you want my company to make an official statement about it?” Xyla asked. “We’ll do it ourselves. Please hire a few more bodyguards for Josh after we make our relationship public,” Stanley added. “Okay, I will.”With that, Xyla hung up the phone. After Xyla hung up the phone, Stanley locked his phone screen and turned to Josh. “These paparazzi are unbelievable.”In fact, he was not ruffling Josh’s hair just now. There was something on Josh’s hair. He was just helping him to fling it away. Josh touched his head for the same reason too. He could not believe that the paparazzi would make such a ridiculous story out of it. Josh shook his head helplessly as he logged onto his Weibo account. There were many unread messages in the chat box. Josh tapped on the chatbox and found countless
Seeing Georgie Clementine’s name on the screen, Xyla Quest immediately picked up the call. “President Xyla, you’re so quick! I haven’t even done anything, and you’ve already settled the problem.” Georgie sounded delighted. “It’s just a small matter. I can handle it myself.” Xyla chuckled.“I guess I have to hire more bodyguards to protect Josh Batton from now on.” Georgie smiled. “Yeah. That’s what I plan to do.”“Alright, I’ll talk to you again. I have an incoming call from the reporter now. He’s probably calling to interview Josh.”“Okay, bye.”***After hanging up the phone, Xyla shifted her attention back to her work. She had forgotten about everything that happened on Weibo just now. Her office was quiet and peaceful. Meanwhile, on the contrary, X Entertainment’s main entrance was thronged with countless reporters. Josh Batton and Stanley Batton were brothers. None of them would like to miss this breaking news. The two brothers had also gone viral on the inter
The man sitting in front of her was too stunning. He was the most handsome man she had ever met in her life. As a woman and a face judger, she simply could not peel her eyes off Stanley Batton’s face!Stanley could tell what the waitress was thinking from her expression. Sadly, he did not even bother to look at her. Though Xyla Quest could also sense the waitress’s fondness for Stanley, she remained as calm as ever. All the girls in the world were in love with Stanley. She was used to it. The pair ordered two signature crab paste risotto, a plate of steamed king crab legs, a huge curry crab, and two cups of orange juice. The waitress was reluctant to leave even after they had done ordering the food. She poured a cup of warm water for each of them before leaving the room unwillingly. After the waitress left, Stanley took a sip of warm water and said, “Oh yeah, make sure you’re free next Monday night.”“Why?” Xyla stared at Stanley and asked smilingly, her chin on her
Seeing that Jeremy Quest was calling her, Xyla Quest immediately answered the call. “Xyla, come to my house now. I have something to tell you.” Jeremy cut to the chase. “Okay. I’m coming over.” As Xyla spoke, she turned to look at Stanley Batton. “I need to go home now. You have some rest first. I’ll be back soon.” “Do you want me to go with you?” Stanley wrapped his arm around Xyla’s waist and asked dotingly. However, Xyla shook her head. “Nah, it’s okay.”“Alright then. I’ll wait for you upstairs,” Stanley said. After that, Xyla got into her red Maserati and headed straight to the Quest family’s house. Jeremy was sitting alone in front of the coffee table when Xyla pulled open the door. There was no one around him except a glass of warm milk. The living room was cheerless as all the maids were not around.Though Jeremy seemed a little depressed sitting there alone, his presence imparted an air of elegance. Xyla immediately hurried to the living room and sat down nex
The darkness in the large balcony was dispelled by brightness. An enormous astronomical telescope appeared in front of her. Stanley Batton marched toward the telescope and carefully put Xyla Quest down beside it. He then lowered his head to adjust the telescope. When he found the star he bought for Xyla, he quickly zoomed in and focused on the star. Without further ado, he pulled Xyla to the telescope and pointed at the eyepiece excitedly. “Look. This is your star.”Xyla immediately peeped into the eyepiece. In the very next second, Xyla Star came into her sight. The magnified star, which belonged to her, was shining dazzlingly in the galaxy. Xyla was amazed. Never in her life had she imagined that she would own a star in the vast universe. She could hardly contain her happiness at this moment. Her face lit up with glee. “So? Can you see it?” Stanley asked with a glint of anticipation in his eyes. Xyla nodded delightedly, her soft lips subconsciously curling upward
“Detective Ritzer found that Emily’s brain was in a state of hypnosis. He speculated that Emily committed suicide under hypnosis. “Besides, he said that Emily had consumed the Soul Devouring Potion before. The toxin left behind by the potion can greatly enhance the effectiveness of hypnosis. Hence, it’s really easy to ‘control’ Emily and instruct her to commit suicide if the master wants.”The seriousness in Stanley Batton’s tone was only amplified with each word he spoke. Xyla Quest was not surprised to find out about that. She knew how powerful the Soul Devouring Potion and hypnosis were. “The coroner must’ve stopped investigating after confirming that Emily has indeed died of suicide.”Stanley continued, “Well, there are still a lot of possibilities other than this reason. The master might have bribed the coroner.”“There must be a spy in jail, helping him to keep an eye on May, Emily, and the police. Otherwise, it’s impossible for him to carry out all these things in jai
