“Got it. Keep me updated…” Stanley Batton ordered. “Okay. By the way, Fifth Master, the mission you gave me the other day is all set now… Mistress will definitely be surprised when she goes out this morning.” “Okay, good…”Stanley cracked a smile as he hung up the phone. Putting down the phone, he continued to wash up before returning to the bedroom. Xyla had just woken up. The sunlight from the french window shone brightly upon her. She looked very much like an indolent kitten dawdling in the bed.Her arms rested outside the blanket. They were as smooth as fresh snow. Her face was fair yet delicate, tempting Stanley to place a kiss on it. The enticing scene made Stanley’s muscles tense. Seeing that Stanley had already washed up, Xyla rubbed her eyes and stretched her body languidly. She then rolled over to take the wristwatch from the bedside table and took a glance at the time. “It’s already eight o’clock… Gosh, I have to hurry up.” She had loads of work to settle t

Following that statement, Stanley Batton slowly kissed away the tears sliding down her cheeks. His confession deeply touched Xyla. She threw her arms around the man’s neck and kissed him on his lips. “Thanks for being so nice to me, Stanley.”“You’re my wife. Of course, I have to be nice to you.”“But turning the entire city into a rose garden in one night is such a huge project. How much did the manpower and effort cost?”“You don’t have to worry about that. All you have to do is enjoy its beauty, alright?” He continued, “Keep driving. Let’s go somewhere else to see the roses.”Nodding in agreement, Xyla started her car again and drove off. Along the way, all that came into her view was a sea of roses. “As you can see, the roses are now planted in pots. I’ll have people to move all of them to the soil later on. In the future, you’ll see flowers blooming all over the city when spring comes,” Stanley said again. Emotions welled up inside Xyla, and she could barely get a hold

When Xyla Quest saw that the call was from Georgie Clementine, she immediately picked it up.“Did you see the trending topics? Someone has actually decorated the entire city of Atlantis with roses for his wife.” Georgie sounded somewhat shocked.“Yeah. I saw it,” Xyla said and chuckled.“This man is really rich. I’m impressed,” Georgie said.“Yeah,” Xyla replied calmly.“Why do you sound so calm? Aren’t you curious at all?” Georgie asked.“Yeah, I’m not curious.” Xyla smiled deeply.“Could you happen to know who he is?” Georgie asked with a sense of curiosity.“Yeah, I do…” Xyla said.“Who is it?” Georgie asked.“Stanley Batton…” Xyla said.“What? It’s actually him?” Georgie was utterly stunned.Xyla remained silent with a calm expression on her face.“He must really love you to go this far, President Xyla. You ought to appreciate him,” Georgie said.“Yeah.”After chatting with Georgie for a while, Xyla hung up the phone.She then continued to browse the trending topics

After finishing her sentence, Georgie Clementine frowned unhappily. “Those fans are the ones at fault. You have no idea. After Josh and I left the airport, they were following us all the way. To get rid of them, Josh was forced to get onto the highway. In the end, they followed us there and even went as far as speeding to catch up. That’s when he accidentally drove the car into the railing. His head collided against the steering wheel, and he immediately passed out…”After hearing that, Xyla carefully looked at Georgie. “What about you? Are you alright?”“I’m fine…” Georgie shook her head before moving her wrist a little. “I only hurt my wrist a little, but the doctor checked it and said it’s fine…”Xyla finally relaxed.While the two of them were speaking, the door to the emergency room slowly opened.A doctor walked out.When Xyla saw him, she immediately pulled Georgie by the hand and stood up.“How did it go? Doctor? Is he alright?” they asked at the same time.“He’s had a

In fact, Xyla Quest had no idea what these crazy people had on their minds.Stanley Batton glared coldly at Xyla’s phone screen. He then pulled Xyla over to sit on the couch.Stanley crossed one leg over the other as he looked at Josh. “Now that things have gotten this far, our parents are bound to find out.”“Yeah. I know. Dad will definitely nag at me again…” Josh Batton said while placing a hand against his forehead.“Deal with it on your own,” Stanley said and frowned a little.“Okay,” Josh said.“I have work. I’ll leave now… ” Stanley stood up after that.“I’ll stay here for a while. Go ahead…” Xyla said.Stanley nodded slightly before walking away.Not long after Stanley left, Sharon Lindt and Jeremy Quest arrived.Unlike what the others had expected, Sharon and Jeremy only asked about Josh’s wound. They didn’t nag him about anything else, but they both seemed unhappy.The two of them sat in the ward for a while before leaving together.After Georgie sent them off, sh
