Zack Cassidy awkwardly glanced at the two of them before directly backing out of the office with a glass of orange juice in his hand.After taking a deep breath, Zack knocked on the door.Stanley Batton didn’t mind what happened earlier at all.He calmly adjusted his black coat before looking at the door. “Come in…”Meanwhile, Xyla Quest slowly sat down next to Stanley.When other people were around, Xyla would be sure to salvage his reputation.Zack awkwardly took a deep breath before approaching them with the glass of orange juice that Xyla wanted.He put the glass of orange juice down. “Mr. Batton, here’s the orange juice you wanted.”With that, he bowed respectfully to Stanley and Xyla. He then turned around and left right away.Zack hadn’t even closed the door, but Stanley had already pulled Xyla onto his lap. “Don’t be angry… I’ll carry it with me, okay? You’re not allowed to divorce me.”When Zack heard the word ‘divorce’, he stopped walking immediately, tempted to eav

Right then, a group of men in black attires, who also wore black sunglasses, gathered in front of the mining area.These men were arguing with Xyla Quest’s employees as well as Darren Green.“Aren’t you going to apologize for injuring our men? What kind of attitude is this?” A voice belonging to Darren questioned.Right then, Darren was staring coldly at a balding plump man in his early thirties, who stood in front of the group of men dressed in black as he spoke.Meanwhile, the bald, plump man seemed furious. “I was going to apologize. Why are you being so rude? Because of your attitude, I’ve decided not to apologize.”“If you don’t apologize today, don’t even dream of leaving this mining area,” Darren retorted, rage evident in his expression.There was a look of hostility in his eyes.His opponent was not weak either. He then pointed at Darren’s head and argued in return. “Sure, why don’t you try doing that? Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to me like this?”Darre

Xyla Quest’s voice was gentle and soft, her pitch remaining low.Even so, the bald man and his subordinates were still terrified.Darren Green walked up to Xyla with a grim expression on his face. “Here’s what happened, Ms. Quest. These people were hunting here when they accidentally injured one of our miners.“At the time, that miner was working above the well. This bald guy suddenly opened fire in his direction. Luckily, the bullet didn’t hit the miner’s body, but it did hit the rock next to his feet.“Unfortunately, the rock was blasted apart by the bullet. Fragments of it hit and injured the miner’s face on the right,” Darren explained in detail.“After the fact, I asked this fellow why he opened fire in a mining area. He said he saw a rabbit running past the miner. He wanted to shoot the rabbit, and that’s why he opened fire, but he didn’t expect to miss and hit the rock instead.“Ms. Quest, do you think what he did even made sense? If he knew he had poor aim, why would he s

Xyla Quest saw that the group led by the elderly man had arrived within her mining area.The old man was looking around above the bottomless well with an unreadable expression on his face.She had never seen him before.She immediately approached him. “Hello, I am Xyla Quest. It's nice to meet you. May I know why you’re here?”The old man smiled in a kind manner. “Nice to meet you, young friend. I’m Frederick Shaw. I was visiting my relatives nearby, and since I didn’t have anything else to do, I came up to have a look. Is this your mining area?” he asked.Although his name seemed familiar, Xyla couldn’t quite recall where she had heard it before.His mannerisms and his appearance didn’t seem to portray him as an ordinary person to her.“Were these all recently mined?” Frederick asked, pointing at some jade rocks nearby.Darren nodded. “Yes.”“As far as I know, all the items your jade mine produced were of high quality. I didn’t think you’d have such low-grade stuff now. You’v

Judging from how luxurious the ancient tomb looked, Xyla Quest could also ascertain that the owner of the tomb was once a powerful member of the royal family during ancient times.At the very least, she would’ve been a princess, a queen, or a queen mother.Xyla felt both stunned and bewildered by the luxurious view before her eyes.She never would’ve thought that such a priceless ancient tomb might have been hidden underneath her jade mine.Xyla was genuinely surprised today.After checking out the entire ancient tomb, Xyla quickly retracted her gaze. She then slowly turned around and looked at Frederick.“I would like to continue digging. What if there’s something valuable? Ore veins cannot be assessed using common logic and knowledge. Anything can be discovered in such explorations.”Since there were so many treasures down there, Xyla naturally would not give up so easily.Frederick couldn’t resist laughing bitterly. “My young friend, my knowledge about jade mining far surpas

Xyla Quest refused to engage the two men in a discussion about the quality of her jade mines.The man with the baritone voice noticed her smile as his gaze fixed on her face.“Why do you look so familiar?” he asked with a smile.Xyla chuckled. “And you are?”“Let me introduce myself. My name is Cain Hollander, Mr. Shaw’s protege,” Cain said.Xyla nodded before extending a hand to him politely. “Nice to meet you. I’m Xyla Quest.”Cain instantly realized who she was. “No wonder you looked so familiar. You’re that Xyla who regularly appears on the list of hot topics, aren’t you?”Xyla nodded.“It is my pleasure to meet you. Does this jade mine belong to you?” Cain asked.“Yes, it belongs to me.”“Take my advice; don’t keep digging. You’ll only lose money if you don’t stop,” Cain said.Xyla chuckled again. “I intend to keep digging,” she replied with a calm expression.Cain couldn’t resist laughing when he heard this. “Believe me, even if you keep going, nothing will come of it

Xyla Quest didn’t pay any more attention to Mary Sullivan. Instead, she slowly shifted her gaze to the bottomless pit of the mine.Frederick Shaw looked helplessly at her. “You’re very stubborn, young lady.”“I guess so,” she said.“You’ll suffer for not listening to more experienced folks,” Frederick said.“I believe in my judgment. Besides, suffering can be a blessing in disguise sometimes,” Xyla said.Frederick shook his head helplessly again.Shortly after, he began chatting with Xyla about his knowledge associated with jade mining.Due to her strong interest in the topic, she paid careful attention.While they were conversing, Mary and Cain Hollander eventually made it to the peak, hand in hand.Mary stood behind Xyla as she panted, pressing both hands against her kneecap. “I heard the experts telling you there’s nothing down there, but you still insist on digging further. Xyla, confidence is great, but being over-confident isn’t a good thing,” Mary mocked as she looked

Mary Sullivan felt annoyed by how Xyla Quest ignored her.Burning with rage, the thing Mary hated the most about Xyla was how she always seemed calm and confident.It appeared as if nothing could stir up her emotions.It also looked like Xyla was born to be in control of everything.Mary couldn’t wait to break through her calm demeanor. She would make Xyla kneel in front of her and call her 'Mommy' with no pride left in her.Annoying people like Xyla deserved to be trampled on like mud.Why should Xyla remain beautiful after so many have died?Why did everyone else have to suffer while she got the best of everything?Xyla did not deserve it!Mary was determined to bring her down today by humiliating her in front of everyone.Frederick ignored Mary and continued to chat with Xyla about their topic earlier.Xyla happened to be well-versed in natural minerals. Hence, the two of them had a fluent conversation.Frederick liked chatting with women like Xyla, who was pretty, intel
