At night, Josh Batton still needed to film for Teenage Idol. Georgie Clementine needed to be there as well.There was still a large pile of documents waiting to be signed by her in the office.***The next morning, when Xyla Quest woke up, Stanley Batton was still not by her side.Xyla lazily sat up in bed.After looking around, she noticed there wasn’t any note. She knew that he probably hadn’t left and was making breakfast downstairs.When Xyla thought about Stanley, a pleasant smile appeared on her face.“Beep, beep, beep…”Just as she was about to get out of bed, her phone rang.A news headline appeared on the screen.“Is Skyview Hotel going down the drain soon?”Xyla immediately tapped into the news and checked it out.She was shocked by what came into sight.“At 8 o’clock Atlantis time, Skyview Hotel’s investors all over the world began requesting for their investment capital to be withdrawn. As soon as the news got out, various major banks in the world requested the
Sebastian Brenand never would have thought that Rachel Wood would say such a thing.In the past few months, Sebastian and Rachel had always been on good terms.He had given her everything, including money, a car, a house, jewelry, branded bags, and branded clothes.It could be said that Rachel was the luckiest woman among those who had rich boyfriends.Sebastian immediately let go of Rachel and sat up with a confused look in his eyes. “Rachel, why are you doing this? Haven’t I given you everything you wanted? Nobody in the entire city of Atlantis has treated their women this well…”At that moment, Sebastian felt his heart aching very badly.“Yeah…” Rachel nodded.“So, why are you doing this?” Sebastian pressed on.Rachel slowly sat up and looked at him with tears in her eyes. Her face was pale.“This morning, a woman called you on the phone. You told her you would meet her tonight…” Rachel said.“Yeah… What’s wrong with that?” Sebastian still felt confused.“If I only think
“There are a lot of things we can’t decide on. For example, we don’t get to choose who we marry. In my case, my family would find the most suitable woman for me to marry. Even if I don’t think we’re compatible, they wouldn’t care,” Sebastian Brenand said with a bitter smile.Rachel Wood remained silent and nodded. “Can you please go out? I want to be alone for a while,” she said.Sebastian dried her tears. “In that case, have some time to yourself. I’ll return to check on you later. I think there’s something urgent at home,” he said.“Okay,” Rachel replied softly.Sebastian turned around and left the ward right away.After he had left, Rachel broke down in tears. She fell onto her bed, and her sobs grew louder.She shouldn’t have made the huge mistake of falling in love with her sugar-daddy.If that hadn’t happened, she could still be happy now.‘Goodbye, Sebastian Brenand… We’ll never meet again.’Not long after Sebastian had left, Rachel packed her things up and left the hos
Xyla Quest immediately looked at her phone. When she saw Adler Finley’s name, she immediately picked up the call. “Mr. Finley, I didn’t think you’d have time to give me a call,” she said.“Didn’t you mention that you want to buy over my team? I’ve decided to sell it to you…” Adler said.Indeed, Xyla really did want to buy Team EW from him, and he also mentioned wanting to sell it.However, afterward, he changed his mind, and the trade never occurred.At first, Xyla thought this was done and dusted. She didn’t expect him to call her out of the blue today.“Sure… How much are you offering to sell it for? Are we still going with the price we decided on previously?” Xyla asked.“Hmm… Let’s meet up tonight. We’ll sign the contract then,” Adler said.“Sure.” Xyla snapped her fingers.Recently, Xyla heard that the company Adler invested in wasn’t doing very well, and he had lost money because of that. Perhaps, that was why he was willing to sell his beloved team.Team EW was one of t
“No need.”“Are you sure?”“Yeah.”“I’ll leave it to you then,” Xyla Quest replied cheerfully. Hanging up the phone, Xyla could feel her mood lifting instantaneously. She returned to her work energetically, her spirits flying high.After going through two documents, Stanley Batton gave her a call again.Xyla answered without hesitation.“Henry said that he’d sell Alex to you as long as you take over Team EW. He’s not going to charge you any transfer fee, so just forget about that. As for the price, Henry told me that it’s currently worth three million one hundred thousand. However, if Alex joins your team, he hopes that you can raise it to three million eight hundred thousand…”“Sure. No problem,” Xyla simply agreed.Owning a World’s Number One Top Solo with an annual payment of three million eight hundred thousand dollars was a sure-fire investment for her clubhouse. This player was the most famous Top Solo in the entire league. His skills and popularity were unbeatable
Besides, Adler Finley had declared that ‘Team EW’ would be renamed into ‘Team QPG’, which was the abbreviation of Quest Property Group. He had full confidence that Team QPG would have a bright future under the guidance of Quest Property Group. Xyla Quest would also strengthen the team’s line-up by taking in more legendary players. The number of comments and shares below the post had already exceeded one hundred thousand…The post had just been uploaded a minute ago. As observed, this matter had successfully received the public’s close attention. “???? Is Xyla Quest interested in the gaming industry? That’s totally unexpected. She’s a girl, though. How much does she know about video games?”“Taking in legendary players? What kind of legendary players can she find? All the legendary players are not for sale! No matter how rich she is, there’s no way she can buy them, okay?”“I have searched for Xyla’s photo just now. Well, she doesn’t look like an expert in video games at all. Is
“Oh crap! We’ve wronged Xyla Quest all this while. Speaking of which, this girl is damn cool! How did she manage to persuade Alex?”“Sorry, Xyla. Please take good care of our Alex from now on…”“So… ‘IM, Alex’ will become ‘QPG, Alex’ in the summer?”“I really envy rich women. They can just buy any player that they like. If I’m rich, I’d love to buy my husband too!”“Xyla must be the happiest girl on earth! Besides having a handsome husband, she now has the most stunning player, Alex, in her team!”Meanwhile, her chatbox was being spammed too.She clicked on it.They were all apologies from the people who had scolded her earlier.The netizens’ erratic behavior caused no more than a ripple of unease to Xyla.After going through several similar situations, she had already gotten used to being targeted. Her response was simply a weak smile as she briefly scrolled through the messages. Shortly after, she exited the chatbox and switched to the homepage once more.As soon as she r
“Skyview Hotel was declared bankrupt five minutes ago!”Never in her life had she imagined that Dragon Group would settle the matter so effectively. They had successfully urged Skyview Hotel to go bankrupt in such a short time.Without hesitation, Xyla Quest tapped into the news and started to read it in earnest. The reasons for the bankruptcy were all clearly explained in the article. Recently, Skyview Hotel had been hounded by the world’s major banks for loan payments, and all the major investors had also officially announced their withdrawal from the hotel. The stock prices drop steeply within a few days, resulting in a big crisis in the corporation’s capital. In the end, they had no other choice but to declare bankruptcy. After reading the news, Xyla gathered her thoughts and went upstairs. In the room, the man was standing in front of the french windows, gently swirling the glass of red wine in his hand.He had just taken a shower. His hair was not fully dried, and ther
