Stanley Batton quickly answered the call.“Are you two coming home for a meal? In that case, can you ask Xyla what she wants to eat? I’ll start preparing right away…” Sharon Lindt sounded awfully excited and joyful.“Okay. I’ll ask her,” Stanley said.“Also, ask Xyla what she wants to drink. Does she want red wine or something else? If she wants red wine, ask her what brand she likes. I’ll have to get it aired out in advance,” Sharon added.“Why didn’t you ask me what I wanted to drink?” Stanley asked jokingly.“How does that have anything to do with me? Xyla is our most precious sweetheart now…” Sharon said.At that moment, Stanley felt as if Sharon was more like Xyla’s mother than his.He couldn’t help but smile a little. “I get it. I’ll ask her.”“Get back to me on WeChat right after asking her, okay? You know what? Forget it. I’ll call Xyla myself. You don’t have to do it,” Sharon said.“Xyla is gaming now. You shouldn’t call and interrupt her,” Stanley said.“Fine. Ask h

The two of them were the center of attention.After taking a few steps forward, Xyla Quest suddenly felt an ache in one of her heels, causing her to frown immediately.However, she didn’t say a word and continued to walk next to Stanley Batton.Stanley happened to have caught her micro expression. “What’s the matter?”Xyla shook her head. “It’s nothing. I guess the high heels must have scraped against my foot.”“Which one?” Stanley asked.“The right one,” Xyla said.Stanley instantly kneeled in front of her and carefully lifted her right leg by holding her right ankle. He then carefully examined her heel.He could see a large bruise on her heel. The skin on it had torn, and its surrounding was swollen.His action once again attracted everyone’s attention…“Why are you only telling me now?” Stanley asked.“It didn’t hurt before we came down,” Xyla said.Stanley didn’t say anything else. Instead, he directly carried her in his arms.When the surrounding employees saw how Sta

At first, Xyla Quest thought she might have had to put in a lot of effort to convince Wilson Batton.She now believed that Wilson wanted to go to Josh Batton’s concert all along, but he never made that decision because he was too prideful.When Xyla brought it up today, Wilson immediately agreed to her request. Firstly, he probably did so because he respected her. Secondly, he might have agreed to it because he wanted to go anyway, and Xyla happened to have offered him the opportunity to do so without jeopardizing his pride.By the time the two of them arrived downstairs, Stanley Batton and the rest were already seated on the couch, eating fruits.Catherine Batton was sharing news about #JayTyCP, a celebrity couple she recently became a huge fan of, with Sharon Lindt. The two of them were having a great time talking about it.Catherine repeatedly showed Sharon pictures of the two celebrities. They seemed completely engrossed.Meanwhile, Stanley appeared completely uninterested. H

May Conner instantly shuddered.Emily Quest forced a bitter smile, looking lost and confused. “Dad doesn’t care about me anymore?”Bailey Ronson, who was standing beside her, felt like she would explode the next second. Success was just around the corner before it blew up in her face. How come their plan did not work?Why was everyone from the Quest family so strange and unpredictable?“Mom, what should I do now?” Emily looked at May anxiously.“Your father looks determined. If he’s not going to change his mind, I’m afraid that there’s nothing else we can do. He’ll hate me if I come up with some sorts of ideas again.” May sighed helplessly.Though it had been a long time since the last time Jeremy Quest almost divorced her, that horrible experience still haunted her.“What if I attempt suicide again?” Emily asked.“For all I know, that’s not going to help.” May let out a deep sigh once more before fixing her gaze upon Bailey. “You’ll have to fend for yourself from now on. Emily

Josh Batton managed a faint smile. “Let’s continue with the interview…”On the other side, Xyla Quest was quietly reading the news using Stanley Batton’s phone after ending her call with Josh.Stanley reached out to her. Obediently, Xyla freed her right hand and held his, their fingers intertwined tightly.Very soon, Stanley’s car had arrived at the main entrance of the Unconscious Bar.The bar was very lively at this hour. Numerous people were walking in and out of the bar, bustling the night with noises and excitement.The luxury cars in front of the bar were as spectacular as those in a car show.After the two of them got out of the car, they went into the bar together hand-in-hand.The bar was super crowded inside. Music was blasting through the speakers, and fancy lights were flashing in all directions.The music played over the dance floor as if it had fused the bodies, hearts pounding to the crazy beats like they belonged to the music. Everyone in the bar was hyped up.
