“Yes.” Freda’s face reddened before she sped away. Once she was gone, the atmosphere became quiet once more.Xyla Quest's hunger became apparent as the aroma from the food containers circulated her office. Eagerly, she brought them over to the coffee table while her husband followed closely behind her.They simultaneously took their containers to unpack them. Inside, they found three dishes in total, including stir-fried eggs with tomatoes, minced meat, and braised eggplants.They both liked these dishes.After lunch, Xyla resumed her work while Stanley Batton settled on the couch to continue playing his games as he accompanied her in the office.Although neither of them intruded on each other's space, they seemed perfectly content together.At the same time, her employees were spamming messages in the company’s WeChat group, where the main topic was regarding Stanley's presence in their building.“Mr. Batton doesn’t plan on leaving today, does he? Ms. Quest is busy working wh

Xyla Quest seemed as fresh-faced as ever, even though she hadn’t reapplied any makeup since she left the house that morning.Discovering that her makeup hadn’t faded at all, she had to admit that the cosmetics she recently purchased were very long-lasting.However, since she had a photoshoot, she reapplied a bright red lipstick to make sure her photos would look great later.She had naturally fair skin, and with the bright red lipstick, her complexion seemed even brighter.The striking red color instantly made her seem elegant.Someone knocked on the door again just as she finished reapplying lipstick.“Come in.”Freda entered, escorting the interview crew from HC Magazine into her office.A female journalist led the group, wearing a lapel mic as two photographers and a gaffer trailed behind her.As they entered, they first saw Xyla before noticing Stanley Batton, making them gasp.People like him didn’t require much effort to make others feel intimidated.The journalist has

“He made time to be with me because he feels that we haven't spent much time together recently.“He set aside a lot of his important tasks at the company to do that,” Xyla Quest said with a helpless expression on her face.Although she felt helpless as she spoke, she also felt absurdly happy.The journalist couldn't help feeling envious when she heard this. “I see. Mr. Batton is indeed well-known for how much he adores his wife. Ms. Quest, you must be very happy.”Xyla chuckled. “Yeah, I am. I have to thank God for giving me such a wonderful husband.”“You’re also wonderful yourself. That’s why you are blessed with a good husband,” the other woman said.“Thank you.”“From what I know, Quest Group’s stock price has increased rapidly since you took over. You've even gotten involved in many industries you never had in the past. Moreover, they've achieved excellent results.“They say you’re an investment genius. What do you have to say about this?” the journalist added.“I don’t t

Stanley Batton’s legs were indeed long, perhaps a little too long for the couch.Xyla Quest approached him, spurring him to reach out to pull her onto his length.She began to blush as the level of intimacy made her heart race. Recalling the incident earlier in the morning, she gently pushed his chest to straighten up next to him. “Stop it, it’s annoying. I told you to be more mindful when we’re in the office.”He smiled. “Oh, I know. I’ll pay attention next time.”With that, he slowly sat up and pulled her onto his lap again.“Didn’t we just go over this?” she scolded.Her husband hadn't stayed true to his words when he said he would pay attention the next time.She was too tired to argue.“I’m already very careful,” he said with an affectionate expression. Xyla stood up to reposition herself next to him, her face still flushed from before. “The interview is over.”“Hmm.”“They asked a lot of questions about you,” she sighed wearily.“How did you answer?” he asked curio

“That means I love you,” Stanley Batton declared, wearing a wary expression on his face. He had changed the topic hastily.“I was joking," Xyla Quest laughed. "Look at how nervous you are.”“How can I not be nervous when your emotions are involved?”She couldn’t resist resting her head against his shoulder. “Okay, I have to get back to work. Do whatever you want, all right?”“I’ve been spending so much time here with you, so shouldn’t you reward me? Hmm?” he asked.She took one look at his perfect face and smiled. “What do you have in mind, huh?”Turning fully to look at her, Stanley pressed his nose against hers. “What do you think?”His tone had a seductive effect on Xyla, instantly making her heart pound rapidly.She pressed a tender kiss on his lips before quickly standing up, hastening her footsteps away to avoid his wandering hands again. “Is that sufficient? I’m going back to work.”Stanley touched his lips while he gazed at her from behind. After that, he checked on We

“Hahaha! Is Stanley very free right now? Did he just like all the comments that praised Xyla?”“Hahaha! He’s such a great husband. I can’t stop laughing. Stanley, isn’t your hand tired?”“Why do I suddenly feel like Stanley is a little too adorable?”“I couldn’t tell Stanley was someone who enjoyed liking comments.”“I envy those people whose comments he liked. I’m extremely jealous.”“Stanley must love Xyla a lot to do this.”“There’s a certain kind of love that only exists between Xyla and Stanley.”Stanley Batton didn’t expect anyone would pay so much attention to his simple act of liking comments.He felt rather speechless about it after briefly glancing at such comments.He perused the list of hot topics again but found nothing else of interest, so he clicked on a news application and began reading the news.Meanwhile, Xyla Quest was still hard at work, blissfully unaware of what was happening on the internet.At six o’clock, she was finally done with work.Days were m

“It’s fine," Xyla Quest insisted. "I can walk on my own. I’m not that helpless.”However, Stanley Batton ignored her and proceeded to carry her into the elevator to get to the first floor.At that hour, the lobby was busy as some of the employees working overtime were also rushing to leave.Everyone instantly focused their gazes on the couple as they stepped out, making Xyla feel a little embarrassed with so many pairs of eyes on her. Suddenly, these people all felt envious of them both.“Hello, Ms. Quest.”“Hello, Mr. Batton.”Employees began to greet them as they passed, prompting her to nod awkwardly while Stanley kept a neutral expression on his face.“Put me down. Many people are watching,” she muttered, struggling to set herself free.She felt even more mortified when she noticed people taking pictures of them.However, it didn’t seem like her husband intended to put her down. Instead, he continued to walk outside.“Listen to me,” she began to protest again.“Be a go

The sleek black Bugatti Veyron glistened elegantly in the parking lot, attracting everyone’s attention.While they checked out the luxury car, they also happened to witness Stanley Batton carefully applying medicated ointment on Xyla Quest.This initiated another round of commentaries from everyone once again—“Oh my god! Look at how gentle Mr. Batton is. See the look in his eyes?”“We’re talking about a CEO here, aren’t we? From now on, all the male protagonists in the novels I read have his face.”“He seems to be so cautious with her. It’s almost as if he’s looking after a baby. Our president seems so happy.”“Honestly, that looks like a scene out of a well-made idol drama. I can’t believe it.”“Most importantly, they look so good together even from this distance.”“Isn’t our president so beautiful? I feel attracted even as a woman, let alone a normal man like Stanley.”The couple under scrutiny and at the center of attention didn’t even notice anything outside the car. They
