Stanley Batton pinched his forehead gently once more. After that, he slowly turned around and leaned against the wall. “There’s a lot of work and meetings to attend. That’s why…”Xyla Quest felt extremely hurt to see Stanley like this. “Okay… In that case, hurry up and take a shower. After that, let’s sleep.”“Alright… Be a good girl. Stop playing after this match, alright?” Although Stanley’s voice sounded hoarse from being tired, it was still charming to listen to. It sounded extremely sexy.Xyla felt tingles in her body just listening to him.“Okay…” Xyla nodded obediently.Stanley entered the bathroom immediately after that. Meanwhile, Xyla quickly shifted her gaze back to the game screen.By then, the team matching process was already complete.This time, their teammates were all professional gamers from LPL Region.These gamers were all in bottom-ranked teams within the region.When they saw Alex, they started complimenting him enthusiastically. Moreover, they also activ

“Why do the dreams you have tonight sound so similar to the ones you had before? It feels like scattered parts of a television drama…” Stanley Batton said earnestly.It sounded like these stories could be pieced together.However, other minor parts of the stories seemed to be missing somewhere in between.Xyla Quest nodded repeatedly. There was an eager look in her eyes. “I didn’t expect you to think the same way… I also feel that these stories could be connected. With a few added snippets, it would be a complete drama plot…“In the beginning, I probably rescued a nine-tailed fox in my dream. This nine-tailed fox turned out to be a demon. After that, it perhaps fell in love with me because I saved its life…“To be with me, he kidnapped my husband. Moreover, he demanded I marry him. Otherwise, my husband would die…“I didn’t have a choice but to agree to what he asked. After that, there was the scene on the night of our wedding. I might have put some poison in the wine.“That, in

Seeing that Xyla Quest was also awake, Stanley Batton immediately ignored his physical discomfort and hugged her tightly. “Did you sleep well last night?” he asked.“Yeah. What about you?” Xyla lied.Stanley lied in return. “Very well… Let’s get out of bed and get ready. Aren’t we going back to your father’s house for breakfast?”***After cleaning up, the two of them felt much more energized…Once Xyla was done putting on make-up and wearing her clothes, she went over to her father’s house next door with Stanley.When Stanley parked his car in the Quest family’s courtyard, the gardener was busy tending to the plants in the small garden within the courtyard…The two of them were greeted by a breeze that brought with it a scent of trees and plants, instantly easing the discomfort they felt.Although Xyla didn’t rest well, she looked like a white peony in full bloom thanks to skincare products and the help of her nude make-up…Xyla’s face was soft and smooth. Coupled with the wh

“The part that’s busted is the area beneath the basin…” The maid added.Betty Starmount instantly panicked when she heard this…When she was washing her hands this morning, the platinum pendant around her neck had accidentally come undone…After that, the translucent bead inside fell into the basin hole…Did that thing fall all the way down?What if it accidentally clung to the outer wall or was stuck somewhere? What if Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton discovered something unusual about it. What would Betty do?However, after thinking carefully, Betty felt that the odds were seemingly minute.Very quickly, Betty let out a long sigh of relief…However, just to be safe, Betty still stood up and walked over to the entrance. “I’ll have a look… I’m very good at fixing pipes…” She looked at the maid as she spoke.Betty’s father used to be a plumber…Growing up, she’d personally watched how her father fixed pipes by his side.Hence, fixing pipes happened to be something Betty knew how

“Isn’t this what you often keep in your pendant?” Stanley Batton looked at Betty Starmount and asked.Betty nodded. “Yes…”After that, she quickly stepped forward and grabbed the small bead before placing it in her small pendant.Her heart was beating extremely fast the entire time.Betty was genuinely worried that they might see through her façade.She felt extremely nervous. It was as if something in her would snap at any second.“This bead… It looks unique. What brand does it belong to?” Xyla casually asked as she glanced indifferently at the bead.Betty chuckled. “I bought it online. It’s a non-mainstream brand. Do you like it? I could buy it for you if you like it…”“I don’t wear these things.” Xyla shook her head.When Betty saw that Xyla and Stanley hadn’t discovered anything unusual, she secretly sighed in relief…“Oh, right. Our company will be shooting our film soon. There are some decent scripts. I’ll get Georgie to send them to you via email… You can pick one that
