“I guess they were pleasantly surprised," Alex said thoughtfully. "Anyway, everyone’s happy about it.”“Yes, they are. Is there anything you’d like to say to Xyla and your fans?” the female host questioned further.He instantly turned his somber-looking face at Xyla Quest. “I won’t let you down, Boss. I’ll bring all the trophies to you.”On the livestream channel—“Stanley: Just pretend I’m dead.”“I honestly feel that Alex has a crush on Xyla. I don’t think I’m mistaken.”“The look in his eyes is so mesmerizing. They’d be a lovely couple!”“Calm down, everyone. Xyla is older than Alex. How could that work out? He isn’t the type to like older women.”“Alex wouldn’t dare set his eyes on Stanley’s wife. Are you all mad?”Xyla flashed a smile upon hearing his words, raising both thumbs at him when he turned to look at her once more.Their entire exchange was captured and displayed on the large screen by the broadcasting director.Stanley Batton observed everything next to her,

Everyone instantly nodded at her suggestion.“Let’s go for that. I want to eat fish too,” Annabeth Cates said excitedly.Josh Batton had an affectionate look in his eyes as he gently touched her face. “Fish it is, then.”“Okay, as you wish,” Stanley Batton replied with a smile.Everyone was on the same page.Soon, they arrived at the restaurant that Xyla Quest recommended. It had a relatively affordable price range, so the clientele consisted of ordinary folks.The interior design was also relatively basic, unlike those they frequented in high-class restaurants.Even so, Xyla and the rest were still very excited.For them, it didn't matter how high-class the place was, but the taste of the food was more important.Josh and Annabeth, who were still under disguise, entered inconspicuously behind Xyla and Stanley while they requested for a private room.Then, they all headed upstairs together.The seemingly elegant and outstanding party of four instantly attracted attention as

Sharon Lindt appeared unconcerned. “Why does it matter? People your age should stay out late. You’re not old, so what’s the concern about coming home before midnight?”Xyla Quest couldn’t help but laugh at this.Stanley Batton calmly walked over and sat down next to his wife. “My parents don’t mind.”“Yes, it’s fine if you want to stay up all night. You both should enjoy your lives while you’re still young. Your mother and I would stay up all night sometimes, too,” Wilson Batton spoke up.Xyla’s smile gradually widened, recalling the videos she’d recently seen of people complaining about their mothers-in-law on TikTok.Their mothers-in-law would often nag at them for getting home late and not looking after their children due to work.Some would even nag at them despite staying at home to look after their children every day.Compared to these people, Xyla was even more content with her life, feeling like she was practically living in heaven.She was very much at peace.“That’s

The internet was taken by storm on the day their charity foundation was established, with netizens expressing their support for Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton’s initiative.People even created brand new emojis of the couple to convey how good-looking, kind, and generous they were.Xyla and Stanley held a charity banquet to promote the foundation and encourage donations during the launch, inviting many people from wealthy folks to celebrities in Country Z.The couple had booked the entire Atlantis International Hotel to hold the event.By nightfall, the grand charity banquet was underway at the hotel's largest hall, covering an area of ​​500 square meters adorned with fresh flowers, balloons, and bright lights everywhere.All invitees had arrived fashionably dressed, already settled in their allocated seats even though the banquet hadn’t officially begun yet.A massive round stage stood at the center of the hall where various performances would take place tonight.By then, the sta

Xyla Quest basically hadn't stopped talking the entire night while acting as host.Her legs were in pain after standing all night long in four-inched high heels.Not only that, but her throat also felt sore.Stanley Batton immediately retrieved the single-use slippers he had prepared in advance, helping her to change into them. “I told you to hire an emcee, but you wouldn’t listen,” he chided gently.“I think it would seem more sincere if I hosted the banquet myself," she replied in exhaustion.“Indeed, it was, but you ended up exhausting yourself,” he said.“But it was worth it, don’t you think so? We’ve raised a lot of money tonight, and these funds can help countless families.”Whenever Xyla thought about this, she’d feel that all that exhaustion was worth it.Stanley shook his head helplessly, but he still had an affectionate look on his face. “I don’t know what to do with you.”She merely chuckled but didn’t reply.Sharon Lindt gazed sadly at her. “I told you to wear fla
