Xyla Quest immediately blushed, and her heart began to pound wildly.At the same time, she could also feel Stanley Batton’s heart rate increasing.“I… love you too,” Stanley said.This was the best thing Xyla had ever heard in her life.Would one say the fireworks were pretty? Yes, they were.However, in Xyla’s heart, none of them were as beautiful as the words Stanley had just said to her.What was the happiest thing in the world? It was when the person you love loves you back.“To be honest, I don’t know when I started falling in love with you… At first, I just felt a liking toward you. But after a while, I slowly discovered that I had fallen head over heels in love.“Baby, I think I’ve got you under my skin. What should I do?” Stanley said with a deep, gentle look in his eyes. He didn’t seem like his usual self at all.Xyla’s heart shuddered at this.Very soon, her eyes welled up. “Is it true?”“Yes, it’s true,” he said.“Happiness… Isn’t it… Isn’t it too sudden?” Xyla s
“You may say things casually, but I cannot take them casually,” Stanley Batton said before pressing Xyla Quest’s head against his chest.At such a close distance, Xyla could clearly hear his heart beating.Each heartbeat pulsed with strength.A sweet sensation began to spread in her heart.Although Xyla said something half-heartedly, Stanley took it seriously and made the fireworks go on for the entire night in the manor.She had her master to thank for this.If it weren’t for him, Xyla and Stanley wouldn’t have known how each other so soon.“Is anything wrong with your wound?” Stanley asked as he kissed her hair.The light scent of rose was almost like an addictive drug.“No…” Xyla said.Throughout the process, Stanley made sure to be very careful. Since Xyla’s surgery wound had basically healed, having sex for an extended period didn’t affect her wound.“That’s good,” Stanley said.Just like that, the two of them hugged each other to sleep.At a little after nine in the
“Such a foolish master.” Zack Cassidy couldn’t resist cursing at Stanley Batton.In the room upstairs, Stanley tossed his phone aside and cleared everything in his mind.By the time Xyla woke up again, it was already evening.The sun was setting against the horizon.It seemed as if the world was covered in a tint of gold.The peach blossom forest also had a layer of gold over it, and it seemed as beautiful as what would appear in dreams.After getting up, Xyla felt an even worse ache in her body. It was as if her bones were being crushed.Stanley was hugging her. The warm light against his body melted away all the coldness around him.When Xyla moved a little, Stanley very quickly opened his eyes.He immediately held her even more tightly as he rubbed the crown of her head with his chin.“Are you up?” He asked.Xyla angrily punched him in the chest. “Hmm… Because of you, a lot of my work has been delayed. Give me back my time.”“How do you want me to give it back to you? On
After casually tossing her phone aside, Xyla Quest looked at the handsome man in front of her. “Let’s eat out tonight.”“Okay,” Stanley Batton agreed right away.“Beep, beep, beep…” At this moment, his phone started vibrating too.He picked it up and looked at the screen.When he saw that Zack Cassidy was calling, he answered immediately.“Master Stanley, are you coming for the meeting or not? The high-level executives didn’t dare leave the office because they have been waiting for you,” Zack said.“Let’s do it tomorrow morning,” Stanley added.On the other end of the call, and in Dragon Group’s office, Zack cursed at Stanley in his heart for being a foolish man.“Alright,” Zack said respectfully.Stanley hung up the phone right away before sitting up lazily. “Let’s go. We’ll take a bath and head out,” he said.After getting up, Xyla instantly caught sight of the crisscrossed scratch marks on his back.They continued to remind her how madly she had behaved.However, Xyla di
“Is it a good idea to put on fireworks like this? I don’t know what’s the hype with this group of people here. Besides, wouldn’t it disturb people late at night?”“Tsk, tsk, tsk. The person who commented about it sure is jealous. What do you mean by disturbing people? Are there even people living around Rosales Manor? I can’t stand these keyboard warriors. Go to hell.”“I want to know who Rosales Manor belongs to within half an hour!”“I want to know who Rosales Manor belongs to within ten minutes! Also, what does it look like inside the manor?”Netizens were saying all sorts of things. Some mentioned insulting things, while others were simply shocked.A lot of people were also curious about who Rosales Manor belonged to.The show of fireworks that lasted the entire night had drawn an extreme amount of attention to Rosales Manor.Everyone was now curious about who the manor belonged to and what the manor looked like on the inside.Xyla Quest briefly looked at the comments befor
Xyla Quest glanced coldly at the two of them. Hand in hand and without warning, Xyla and Stanley Batton strode across the room and sat beside Jeremy Quest cheerfully. “Sorry Daddy, we’re late. We got stuck in the traffic.”Xyla was sitting next to Jeremy while Stanley was next to Tom Sullivan.“No worries, Xyla… We have just gotten here too,” May Conner responded with a friendly smile. Likewise, Xyla returned her a polite smile.“Are you feeling better now?” May asked again. “Yeah,” Xyla answered indifferently and showed no interest in continuing the conversation.“Waiter, the food can be served now.” Jeremy Quest casually waved at the waiter who was standing right beside their table. Though it seemed as if the waiter had just left, the dishes were prepared quickly, and their orders arrived in no time. It was a feast, indeed. There were various arrays of food on the table, ranging from seafood to all kinds of meat and vegetables. When all the eighteen dishes had been served,
Scanning the restaurant, Tom Sullivan managed to catch sight of Xyla Quest in no time. Without hesitation, he headed straight for the window where Xyla was standing. Xyla, who had already noticed Tom, whispered into her phone. “I’ll get back to you later, Georgie…”Following that statement, Xyla hung up the phone and directly headed back to the private room with a light scowl as she walked. However, Tom grabbed Xyla’s arm when she passed by him, stopping her from walking further. Even if it was just a slight contact with him, Xyla felt extremely disgusted by it.“What do you want?” she asked cold-heartedly.“Xyla, let’s have a chat…” Tom added, “I apologize to you for everything I’ve done previously… I behaved that way because I thought you orchestrated all the terrible things that happened to my family and me. I did that in the heat of the moment.“After all, I’ve got my punishment too. Can you forgive me now?” Tom blurted out everything that was on his mind, “I have hurt yo
Trash?Tom Sullivan was down in the dumps when he heard Xyla Quest called him a piece of trash.Years ago, she had treated him as a treasure. Right now, she was comparing him to trash?!“Hey Xyla, you were the one who ran after my ass every single day back then.” A wave of fury coarse through him.Xyla slowly turned to look at his desperate face, the corners of her lips curled up into a pretty smirk. “Well, there are times when we are blinded by some stupid love, aren’t we?”Satisfied with her response, she turned to face Stanley Batton again, her voice tender again. “Let’s go in, dear.”Stanley remained silent as he held Xyla’s hand and led her back to the room, paying Tom no mind as usual. Though their conversation had just ended in the blink of an eye, Tom felt that Xyla had effortlessly crushed his self-esteem. She was stomping on it repeatedly, breaking it into pieces on the ground.Suddenly, the memory of Xyla, who used to follow him around, kept flashing across his mi
