Disgruntled with his attitude, the girl cursed, “What the heck? Why did you look for me if you’re not interested in women?”Sebastian Brenand felt refreshed after he left the private room. He had made up his mind. He set his sights on getting rid of the girls he was seeing. Then, he would set off to hunt for Rachel Wood! He was not going to touch other women again for Rachel’s sake.As long as she was willing to return to his side, he would marry her no matter what. He had to get the woman he had fallen in love with for the first time in his life back!Most of the time, one would only realize the importance of someone when they were gone. Without further ado, Sebastian stalked out of the bar and called his assistant. “Find out where Rachel is by tomorrow!”Without waiting for his assistant to respond, he hung up the phone right away.Rachel was all that was on the mind even after he went back to his luxury car. Muddled by the thought of her, Sebastian started the car and l
“Got it. Keep me updated…” Stanley Batton ordered. “Okay. By the way, Fifth Master, the mission you gave me the other day is all set now… Mistress will definitely be surprised when she goes out this morning.” “Okay, good…”Stanley cracked a smile as he hung up the phone. Putting down the phone, he continued to wash up before returning to the bedroom. Xyla had just woken up. The sunlight from the french window shone brightly upon her. She looked very much like an indolent kitten dawdling in the bed.Her arms rested outside the blanket. They were as smooth as fresh snow. Her face was fair yet delicate, tempting Stanley to place a kiss on it. The enticing scene made Stanley’s muscles tense. Seeing that Stanley had already washed up, Xyla rubbed her eyes and stretched her body languidly. She then rolled over to take the wristwatch from the bedside table and took a glance at the time. “It’s already eight o’clock… Gosh, I have to hurry up.” She had loads of work to settle t
The car window was halfway down. The man casually smoked as he looked at her; his eyes were filled with adoration.Xyla Quest pulled out her car key to unlock her red Maserati before walking up to him. “Why are you still here?”“I’m waiting for you.”“Okay…”“I have something to show you,” he added.“What is it?” Xyla’s eyes widened, attentive and brimming with curiosity. Stanley Batton took a deep puff at the cigarette, a mischievous gaze following soon after. “You’ll find out soon.” Xyla could not bear the suspense. “Don’t keep me guessing. Go on!”“Get in the car…” Stanley tittered. Without further ado, Xyla got into her red Maserati obediently and drove off. Stanley’s black Bentley Arnage followed after her. As soon as the car left the gate, Xyla was utterly shocked by the view in front of her. The two sides of the road were filled with countless pots of fiery red roses. The flower-filled road stretched into the distance as far as the eyes could see. It was just l
Following that statement, Stanley Batton slowly kissed away the tears sliding down her cheeks. His confession deeply touched Xyla. She threw her arms around the man’s neck and kissed him on his lips. “Thanks for being so nice to me, Stanley.”“You’re my wife. Of course, I have to be nice to you.”“But turning the entire city into a rose garden in one night is such a huge project. How much did the manpower and effort cost?”“You don’t have to worry about that. All you have to do is enjoy its beauty, alright?” He continued, “Keep driving. Let’s go somewhere else to see the roses.”Nodding in agreement, Xyla started her car again and drove off. Along the way, all that came into her view was a sea of roses. “As you can see, the roses are now planted in pots. I’ll have people to move all of them to the soil later on. In the future, you’ll see flowers blooming all over the city when spring comes,” Stanley said again. Emotions welled up inside Xyla, and she could barely get a hold
Xyla Quest scrolled down to the comment section.As expected, the comment section had exploded with excitement. Though it had only been ten minutes since the article was posted, the number of comments beneath it had already reached one million. “???? What the heck??? I’m too poor to relate to that man. How rich does one have to be to do this? He reminds me of the guy who kept fireworks going on all night. They’re really one of a kind!”“I seriously suspect that he’s the same person as the firework guy. If that’s the case, I might start to believe in true love.”“This man is the typical ‘someone else’s husband’. I wonder who is the heroine of this incident. She must have burst into tears now.”“The money spent on these roses could’ve been donated to the needy. These rich people are too selfish!”“Dude, can you stop being so salty? How do you know they’ve never donated money to the needy?”“Oh my god! They’re the fairytale prince and princess in real life! How I wish I could be
When Xyla Quest saw that the call was from Georgie Clementine, she immediately picked it up.“Did you see the trending topics? Someone has actually decorated the entire city of Atlantis with roses for his wife.” Georgie sounded somewhat shocked.“Yeah. I saw it,” Xyla said and chuckled.“This man is really rich. I’m impressed,” Georgie said.“Yeah,” Xyla replied calmly.“Why do you sound so calm? Aren’t you curious at all?” Georgie asked.“Yeah, I’m not curious.” Xyla smiled deeply.“Could you happen to know who he is?” Georgie asked with a sense of curiosity.“Yeah, I do…” Xyla said.“Who is it?” Georgie asked.“Stanley Batton…” Xyla said.“What? It’s actually him?” Georgie was utterly stunned.Xyla remained silent with a calm expression on her face.“He must really love you to go this far, President Xyla. You ought to appreciate him,” Georgie said.“Yeah.”After chatting with Georgie for a while, Xyla hung up the phone.She then continued to browse the trending topics
“Xyla… Did you get in touch with the designer I told you about?” Jeremy Quest asked.“The designer hasn’t been free for the past two days. The sketch will commence in two days,” Xyla Quest said.Jeremy immediately nodded satisfactorily.“Did you sign a contract with the designer?” Jeremy asked.“This designer doesn’t require any payment,” Xyla said.“Who is it? I can’t believe someone would forgo payment…”“Once the drawing is complete, you’ll be able to see the style. You’ll find out why,” Xyla said.Jeremy became even more curious when he heard what Xyla said. “Does that mean this designer’s art style is very unique, and the person is also very famous?” Jeremy asked.“You can say that.” Xyla chuckled.“Do famous designers even provide free drawings? That’s a huge project. It requires a lot of effort,” Jeremy said.“We have a good relationship, so…”“Xyla, you really are amazing,” Jeremy said. He grew even more fond of Xyla now.“Dad, since you have entrusted me with the p
After finishing her sentence, Georgie Clementine frowned unhappily. “Those fans are the ones at fault. You have no idea. After Josh and I left the airport, they were following us all the way. To get rid of them, Josh was forced to get onto the highway. In the end, they followed us there and even went as far as speeding to catch up. That’s when he accidentally drove the car into the railing. His head collided against the steering wheel, and he immediately passed out…”After hearing that, Xyla carefully looked at Georgie. “What about you? Are you alright?”“I’m fine…” Georgie shook her head before moving her wrist a little. “I only hurt my wrist a little, but the doctor checked it and said it’s fine…”Xyla finally relaxed.While the two of them were speaking, the door to the emergency room slowly opened.A doctor walked out.When Xyla saw him, she immediately pulled Georgie by the hand and stood up.“How did it go? Doctor? Is he alright?” they asked at the same time.“He’s had a
