Upon hearing that, Sebastian Brenand and Gary Lakes were both shocked.None of them expected that Xyla Quest would ask for such a favor.In their lives, this was the first time ever for them to hear someone asking for such a favor from Stanley Batton.“I can pay you.” Xyla’s face was filled with sincerity and eagerness. “You can ask for any amount, is it okay?”“Beautiful Xyla, do you know what you're saying?” Sebastian could not stand it anymore and asked with eyes filled with question marks.Were people like Fred Thomson worthy enough for the Fifth Master to give him a lesson personally?“You’re talking a little too much.” Stanley glanced at Sebastian coldly.Sebastian drew in a cold breath and shut his mouth once again. He did not dare to say a word again.“Okay.” Stanley looked at her affectionately and replied.Xyla let out a long sigh with satisfaction, “How much money do you want?”“There’s no need for the money… It’s everyone’s duty to punish that scum.”“Five Batton
“When you're there, I will send some men over to protect you. Don’t you worry, I will not let you suffer.” Xyla Quest said again.“You really put a high value on him.” Stanley Batton smirked and he looked so calm as if he was the emperor himself. “Just in case… Although I know you are skilled, but… What if?” “There’s no what if, I will figure things out. You just leave this matter to me alone.”“No, I must be a part of this. I’m the one who asked you to do it and that’s why I need to be responsible till the end.” Xyla insisted.“Alright, I will let you take this responsibility.”“Of course.” After she finished her sentence, she felt that something was wrong in what he said just now.Was she really thinking too much today?“By the time, when you and Fred get into the room, you…”“I know what to do.” He switched the topic immediately, “You’re very incredible, to be able to escape from a place like that.” He praised her.“Probably because one’s hidden power will erupt once t
“I only want to look after you.”“You…” Georgie Clementine got so mad at him that she was speechless. However, she knew that he was caring for her and put up with him in the end.“Do you know that no one had ever been courageous enough to talk to me like that?” Henry Armstrong replied. “I don’t know.”“You really are something else.”Georgie did not respond to him anymore. She closed her eyes to get some rest. After Henry sent her back to her room, he carried her onto the bed and covered her with a blanket.Georgie awkwardly coughed, “How many times have I told you? I can get on and off the bed by myself. I don’t even need a wheelchair. You don’t need to treat me like I am a disabled person.” “Hey, girl, do you want something to eat?” Henry grinned. “Shall I buy something for you?” “It’s okay, I’m fine now. Thanks for your help today.” Georgie said.“So cruel, are you chasing me away?” “We’re both single and it’s not okay for us to stay in the same room…” Georgie ex
The person addressed himself as ‘Y’. Georgie Clemetine pressed the ‘Accept’ button on the request as usual before lowering her head and dug into the food. Right around that time, ring ring… The Wechat notification rang again. That person sent her a message. “I’m Henry, has all the food arrived yet? Girl, do you like them?”Georgie was shocked in her heart. She did not expect him to get his hands on her Wechat number. She knew that Xyla Quest would never simply give others her Wechat number.“Where did you get my Wechat number from?” Georgie asked.“I asked my friends for help.” “...” After that, she made a rough estimation of the price for the dinner and transferred the money to him.“No, girl. What do you mean? Are you trying to be my ‘sugar mummy’? For this little amount of money, it doesn’t seem enough though.” Henry retorted.“Stop flirting, this is for dinner.” Georgie snapped back at Henry’s argument.She did not like to owe people.Especially for people like H
Beep beep… When he was about to step out and enter the door, a car horn was heard from behind. Stanley Batton slightly furrowed his brows and turned to look backwards. The only thing he saw behind him was a black Bentley Arnage.The car window was rolled down quickly. Fred Thomson stuck his head out and looked at him with a friendly look. “Handsome guy, I am Director Fred Thomson. I wonder if you’re interested in having a conversation in my car? I think that your looks are very suitable for my television series that I’m preparing for.” Stanley snorted coldly and slightly raised his dashing eyebrows.He did not expect Fred to come to his doorstep without him looking for him specially. It was like help from heaven. He did not say a word, only walked slowly to the other side and got into the car. He then fastened his seat belt. “You look really handsome. If you can be my male lead, you can surely rise to the top in the circle with just a leap.” Fred said while smiling. T
Stanley Batton raised his arm, lifted his cup and invited him for a clink. Fred Thomson immediately took his cup and clinked it with his. “Me too.” Then, he naturally drank a sip of water.Stanley casually glanced at his Adam’s apple that was moving up and down. Then, he brought the cup to his lips and pretended to drink water.Fred saw that and smiled with satisfaction. He only needed a sip of this water, there was no need for too much of it. Stanley slowly moved the cup away from his lips. He held the cup with both of his hands and looked at him. “What is the television series that you were talking about?” Fred said, “Oh… A period drama.” After he finished his sentence, Fred started to feel his whole body burning and getting weaker...A strong and familiar desire aroused in his body. This feeling was too similar to yesterday’s.The most terrifying thing was that his desire seemed stronger than yesterday. He immediately sensed something wrong. He put on an icy look
The two men in black heard what she said and suddenly became nervous. They said in unison, “Yes, Miss!”Then, both of them brought more than ten people and quickly hurried downstairs. ***At the same time, at the police station. Stanley Batton and Fred Thomson were brought together into the interrogation room. The face of the superintendent who had already been waiting there turned cold when he saw Stanley.He ordered his subordinate officers to turn off the surveillance camera right away.He then quickly walked to Fred and nodded politely.Then, the superintendent looked at the two officers behind Fred coldly. “Why can’t you untie him quickly? There are so many people here, are you afraid that he will run away?” The two policemen received their orders and immediately untied Fred.Fred glanced at Stanley coldly before walking quickly to the front of the interrogation counter and sat down. The superintendent looked at Stanley and ordered him impatiently, “You… sit ther
“Alright, this case is clear enough, it was you who set Young Master Thomson up and framed him on purpose.”“Someone bring this guy downstairs to fill in his particulars and just lock him up straightaway.” The superintendent looked at Stanley Batton indifferently. He looked confident and determined, he no longer had the mood of continuing the investigation. He thought that the truth was not that important. The most important thing was that Fred Thomson could not be messed around with. In this situation, he could only sacrifice the ordinary person in front of him and protect Fred. Looking at the person right in front of him, Stanley’s face was getting colder and colder, the flame in his heart was burning with rage. Fred was happy and he curved up his lips after he heard that. He slowly stood up and squinted at Stanley. “Just wait for your imprisonment… Not to mention that I did not touch you today, even if I really did, what can you do?”“Tell me, why did you do that? Hmm?
