Tom’s vulgarity thoroughly annoyed Xyla. With a slight frown, she took a step forward and stared at his face coldly.“Tom Sullivan, watch what you say,” she said.Xyla knew that Tom probably came to her in a huff because he wanted to get back at her for what she did to Mary.“What’s the matter? Didn’t you once beg me to f*ck you?” Tom asked sarcastically with a sly smile on his face.His words were like a needle to her heart. Xyla felt as if a hole had been pricked through somewhere in her body. Memories began to flood through her mind. Like a compressed balloon, all it took was a hole for these memories to blast through.Back when Xyla was ugly and fat, she once asked to be f*cked in order to keep him around. However, Tom had righteously told her that he wished to wait until the night of their wedding. Moreover, he claimed that he would never engage in sex before marriage.Like a fool, Xyla believed him. In fact, she was very touched that her Brother Sullivan was not like other
Smoke surrounded Tom’s solemn-looking face. He no longer seemed as kind and peace-loving as he normally did.Xyla could clearly sense that she was in danger. Although she struggled to free herself, her body was far too weak. A strong sense of anger filled her heart. She felt as if her chest was about to explode. Despite wanting to speak, she was unable to utter a single word.Apart from causing Xyla to faint, the drug also made her entire body weak, and even made her unable to speak for a short period of time.At a place like this, with only her and Tom around, anything could happen. Even if he wanted to kill her, he could do so with ease.Tom took a slow puff of his cigarette with an annoyed expression. “Why are you looking at me like that? Huh? Did I do something wrong?” he asked.Stubbing out the cigarette, he climbed onto Xyla. His body pressed tightly against hers while he pinched her chin forcefully with a single hand.Even when Xyla was angry, her face still looked very be
Tom felt clueless about what he should do. Recently, whenever his father saw him, he would only criticize him. His father would not agree with anything he did, which drove him mad. With so many things piled up in his mind, Tom urgently needed someone he could vent his frustrations on.Xyla, who personally forced his sister into prison and was the suspect for the crime against his family, became Tom’s perfect target. As he recalled all the bad things that happened to him recently, he began tearing Xyla’s clothes apart like a mad person.“Xyla Quest, even if I was wrong, you should not have treated me so cruelly. I have nothing left! Do you understand that? You have an evil heart. Have you ever thought how hard it was for me to continue loving you when you were as fat as a pig? The fact that I stayed with you for so long proves that I really tried my best. I didn’t have a choice. Whenever I saw your ugly face, I felt as if I was going mad. All you lost was a single kidney, but do you k
When Xyla saw Stanley’s face, she cried even more intensely. At that moment, she felt as if she was someone about to die from dehydration in the desert, while Stanley was the savior who brought water to her.Feeling extremely grateful from the bottom of her heart, she found it impossible to stop her tears from falling.“Close your eyes,” ordered Stanley, glaring at the people around him.Everyone immediately closed their eyes.When Tom saw the large group of people, he was momentarily stunned and stopped what he was doing. However, he quickly recovered and took a dagger out of his pocket, pointing it at Xyla’s neck.“Don’t come any closer, or I will slit her throat,” he said.Realizing that he was outnumbered, Tom had to find a way to escape. Otherwise, he would be in deep trouble.Xyla could feel the cold dagger against her neck. A chilling sensation began to spread across her skin. Although she was in a dangerous situation, she no longer felt afraid because Stanley was here.
When Xyla saw what happened to Tom, who was all over her just a moment ago, her anger immediately faded away.This was an extremely bloody scene, which she wished to never see again. Subconsciously, she buried her face in Stanley’s chest and shook her head to let him know she was not hurt.Stanley rubbed her chin against her head and asked in a soft voice, “What do you want me to do to him?”Xyla tried to open her mouth. When she realized she could finally speak, she sighed in relief. “That’s enough. Send him to the hospital,” she said.Regardless of what Tom did, they could not kill him. Otherwise, it would be a difficult situation to resolve. After responding to Stanley, Xyla hugged him tightly once more. Since she was still in shock, keeping Stanley close to her was the only way she could recover quickly.“That’s not enough. Beat him up,” said Stanley, looking at the men dressed in black by the door. His facial expression had turned cold once more.“Are you crazy?! Do you know
Xyla sounded firm. Since Stanley refused to listen to her when she was not being assertive, she would have to take a more assertive stance.When the men dressed in black heard her, they were all shocked. Each one of them felt nervous on her behalf. Xyla actually dared to speak to Stanley like that. Did she have a death wish?“Alright, alright. I’ll listen to you,” said Stanley, shaking his head helplessly. There was a gentle look in his eyes.Covering Xyla up with his coat, he buttoned it up for her from behind, then shifted it until the buttons were in front. “You can put your hands through the sleeves now. It’ll feel more comfortable that way.”The men dressed in black were stunned. They looked at one another in confusion. Was this the real Stanley? They felt utterly confused by what was happening. Nobody had ever spoken to him like this. When did he ever treat a woman in such a way?“Why aren’t you getting your men to stop then?” asked Xyla.Stanley pinched his forehead before
Through the smoke in the air, Stanley slowly turned around and examined Xyla’s face with a deep look in his eyes.“You don’t have to return anything to me for now,” he said calmly after exhaling a puff of smoke.“Let me thank you by buying you a meal tonight,” said Xyla.“Sure.”“I’ll decide on the place and send you the location on WeChat,” said Xyla with a forced smile.“Okay,” he replied with a gentle look on his face.“Is there any particular restaurant you’d like to go to?”“Anything is fine. Wherever you like.”The driver who overheard the conversation was shocked. He could not resist peeking at Stanley through the rearview mirror. Stanley’s gentle demeanor was giving him a heart attack. Was Stanley capable of saying things this nicely? Why had he never known about it?The driver had never heard Stanley saying the words ‘anything is fine’ in front of him or anyone else. This girl was amazing.“I noticed you were acting strangely when I walked through the door earlier. Y
The ignited lighter twirled in his slender fingers where every spark just barely flickered across his skin. This gesture was utterly alluring. “After our men released Tom Sullivan, he grabbed his arm and drove to the hospital.” Zack added, “I heard that Young Madam wishes not to make this incident huge, correct?” “Actually, I think Young Madam is right. If this issue escalates and gets out, it wouldn’t be good for the Young Madam. People would often add in bits of details once they start spreading until, alas, they turn into a completely different thing. “Worst case scenario, it becomes a version where he has successfully slept with our Young Madam.” Zack’s tone was respectful and serious. “I know,” said Stanley. “Fifth Master, our people have warned him saying that we have evidence of his crime in our hands. He wouldn’t dare to put the word out and escalate things either simply.” “I suspect that he won’t even tell his family. After all, Tony Sullivan is annoyed by him. I
