The bodyguards followed them closely behind.
After they left, the entire square buzzed with excitement…
“Ahh… Doesn’t Stanley Batton dote on his wife too much? He carried her out of the helicopter.”
“If my husband were half as good as him, I wouldn’t have gotten a divorce.”
“Who is Stanley Batton?”
“Don’t you know who Stanley Batton is? Are you even from Country Z? He’s the young heir of Dragon Group…”
“I wonder if Xyla Quest feels enthralled every day. I’m so jealous.”
Although Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton were getting further away from the square, everyone was still reluctant to look away.
Each of them wished they could attach their eyeballs to the two of them…

Xyla led Stanley and a group of bodyguards to a restaurant that was called Straw Hat Fish.
The restaurant wasn’t very big. By then, it was already fully seated inside.
Each table had a large pot in the center. There was a cover shaped like a straw hat on each of the large pots.
With boiling pots of fish, white mist spread in all directions.
The entire world seemed to be engulfed in a thick layer of steam.
As soon as Xyla and Stanley walked through the door, all eyes were on them.
Some were stunned by their gorgeous looks, while others recognized the two of them…
“Ahh… Isn’t this Xyla Quest? D*mn… I wasn’t expecting myself to bump into Xyla in a tiny, insignificant city like this.”
This action instantly made many single folks feel tortured. The ladies, especially, were so jealous that they’d nearly gone completely mad—
“Ahh… My head is spinning. What kind of heavenly couple is this? I’m so jealous, girls.”
“An influential young heir like him… He actually… Actually… Bent over to tie his wife’s shoelaces.”
“I’m touched, girls… I’m getting out of breath. I can’t live anymore.”
Suddenly, the entire restaurant was buzzing with excitement.
Xyla instantly felt a little embarrassed.
Meanwhile, Stanley still had a calm expression on his face. He acted as if he hadn’t done anything.
After tying her shoelaces, he naturally wrapped his arm around Xyla’s shoulders. While everyone watched, he led Xyla and the group of bodyguards upstairs while following behind the pretty waitress.
