Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2050

The caller was Zack Cassidy.

Stanley Batton immediately picked up the call.

A large meeting room filled with top executives on the top floor of Dragon Group’s office building was completely silent on the other side of the call.

Zack stood by the empty main seat as he spoke softly to Stanley on the phone. “Mr. Batton, the top executives are all here. When will the meeting start?”

Stanley frowned and glanced at his expensive watch. “Cancel today’s meeting.”

“But…” Zack's voice trailed off.

Didn’t they need to discuss and decide on something important during the meeting today?

“My wife needs me,” Stanley said before hanging up directly.

His voice thundered clearly over the phone in the silent meeting room.

The people closer to Zack were able to hear what Stanley said.

Suddenly, everyone in the meeting room erupted into discussions.

Recently, Stanley had missed countless meetings because of his wife's health.

People change.

In the past, Stanley always took his time at work seriously.

As they exchanged glances, they couldn’t resist feeling respectful toward Xyla Quest.

These people had witnessed the couple's journey as a couple for the longest time. They genuinely felt that Xyla was not a simple woman.

Even a stern and serious man like Stanley could transform into a loving and gentle husband.

“Every hero has a weakness, and that’s a beautiful woman. Even Mr. Batton can’t escape that fate.”

Outside, Zack could hear everything they were saying, and he found himself agreeing with them.

Stanley was letting his adoration toward his wife spiral out of control.

When she was physically ill, he’d drop his work.

When she was emotionally unwell, he’d also drop his work.

Generally, whenever something happened to Xyla, he’d drop everything to be by her side.

Even a man like himself was envious of her.

How could she be this lucky?
