Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1728

Hence, Xyla Quest exited from the news article and switched over to the financial news bulletin to check out what was trending for the day.

The headline of the financial news bulletin was related to Tony Sullivan’s death.

Xyla didn’t tap on it.

Instead, she briefly checked out news about other businesses.

While going through the news, her phone started ringing.

The call was from Stanley Batton.

When Xyla saw the word ‘Honey’, her gaze immediately became tender.

She subconsciously smiled before picking it up. “Hey, honey…”

Her tone was very gentle when she spoke.

On the other side of the phone, Stanley was inspecting each department of a subsidiary company in City K with a large group of people. His facial expression was cold.

There was a large group of high-level executives behind him, as well as a group of bodyguards.

Everyone seemed timid and careful…

Stanley wore a black shirt, a fitting high-class suit, and a custom-made, high-class coat…

He seemed unspeakably noble.

There was a stark contrast between the cold colors of his outfit and his fair skin.

His skin seemed almost fair as snow.

Right then, he was holding his phone as he walked into the planning department while surrounded by the entourage.

Every employee in the vast office space of several hundred square meters all stood up.

“Hello, Mr. Batton,” they called out simultaneously.

Stanley nodded at them slightly before placing his right index finger on his lips, signaling them to keep quiet.

The others immediately fell silent when they saw this.

‘When will it be my turn to experience sweet love like this?’ The ladies were all wondering to themselves.

When Xyla heard what Stanley said, she immediately felt warmth spread in her heart. “Alright… Make sure you eat properly out there…”

“Don’t get too exhausted, okay?” Xyla asked.

“Okay. Don’t work too late. Get home earlier. If you need any help, go to Zack… He’ll be on standby twenty-four-seven,” Stanley said.

Stanley was behaving as if he was all alone…

Regardless of how many people were looking at him, he didn’t feel shy at all.

“Okay…” Xyla said.

“Also, don’t wear high heels. It’s not safe…” Stanley added.

“Hmm… Fine then.” Xyla had lost count of how many times Stanley suggested this to her.

This time, Xyla chose to do as he said…
