“Why wouldn’t there be? Don’t you have tons of them around you? What’s so good about a married woman like me?” said Xyla, maintaining her kind and polite smile the entire time. The passion in Josh’s eyes grew deeper. “Then, why don’t I see them? I think you’re the best. Since you’ve already planned to get a divorce, why not leave me a spot? Once you’re divorced, I can fill it.” “I always thought of you as a business partner, a friend.” “Then, you can stop thinking of me as a friend. Treating me as a backup works too.” It was hard to imagine that this person who was worshipped by countless people like a precious star would actually say something like wanting to become a backup option. This man was Josh Batton. The unattainable star in many young girls’ hearts. However, Xyla did not waver. “I don’t have a habit of keeping backups. Josh Batton, you’re a great and excellent person. Listen to me and look ahead. Keep your options open.” “I will wait for you.” Josh was reluctant

Xyla was dumbstruck and instantly asked, “Who are you guys?” The men in black clothing remained silent, simply politely nodding at her in unison before walking over to Josh. “Come with us.” Compared to Xyla, Josh was much calmer and seemed composed. “Can’t you see that I’m on a date?” he asked. However, without waiting for him to speak, the man in black leading the group beckoned the others. In a flash, Josh was forcefully picked up by a few men. “Pardon me,” said the leader of the group. Xyla immediately frowned hard. She got up and asked, “Who are you guys? Do you have any idea what you’re doing right now?” “It’s okay, I know these people. They’re from my family,” Josh comforted her. Xyla’s heart gradually relaxed at this. “Come with us,” the leader of the group repeated. After that, they took Josh away by force. He struggled and resisted, but it was futile. Finally, he could only let them take him away.He turned to Xyla and smiled. “Wait for me, I’ll be back soon

Both appearances could destroy cities, but they were of different types. One was so handsome that he had a strong, pressuring aura, while the other was so handsome that he seemed completely harmless. One was apathetic and aloof, the other was warm and pure. “Why are you here? You got them to bring me over urgently, what for?” Josh was a tad annoyed. How could Stanley do this? The man forcefully interrupted Josh’s date, ignored everything else, and simply got someone to drag him out of the restaurant. “Why did you ignore Zack’s calls?” Stanley took a long draw of his cigarette before slowly breathing it out. Under the haze of smoke, unreadable emotions surged behind his dark eyes. “I didn’t turn on my phone during work. I saw the missed calls after work, but because I had more important business to attend to, I forgot to call him back,” Josh answered honestly. “Your so-called important business was a date with Xyla Quest?” Stanley asked. “...Why do you seem to know my exact

“We’ve met, but she still doesn’t know who I am. It’s difficult to explain certain things to you right now. Just remember that she belongs to me. As for everything else, don’t say too much, and don’t ask too much, got it? Just like how I don’t get involved with your work in the entertainment industry, and haven’t exposed your identity, I hope you can treat me in the same way,” Stanley said each word sternly.Although Josh did not understand what exactly Stanley was trying to say, he nodded and did not ask any further.“I’ve got it,” said Josh, nodding again.“Alright, go and make things clear,” said Stanley as he took out his lighter and played with it. A small flame flickered between his fingers.“I understand, and I won’t keep thinking about my sister-in-law anymore.”“Yeah. I hope you can keep your promise,” replied Stanley.Getting out of the car, Josh took a deep breath before turning around and heading back into the restaurant, waving his hand as he walked. He had no idea h

After dinner, Josh drove Xyla home. Throughout the journey, he remained silent with a deep frown on his face. Since it was very dark in the car, Xyla did not notice any changes in his facial expression. When they arrived at the entrance to the Quest family’s villa, the car came to a stable halt. During the meal, Xyla had drunk a bit of red wine. Although she did not think it was a lot at the time, she was beginning to feel the effects kicking in now. Josh drove her all the way to the front of her house. Once the car stopped in front of the main building, Xyla turned around to look at him. “Thank you for sending me home. Get back safely. Goodnight.” Closing the car door behind her, she started to walk towards her house. “Hold on…” said Josh, getting out of the car. The cold northern wind made both Xyla and Josh shiver a little. “Whenever and wherever you need help, you can come to me. Even if we can’t be lovers, I hope we can still be good friends,” said Josh sincerely with a

At such a close distance, Xyla’s heart was nearly beating out of control. “Untangle it, quickly,” she said. “Okay… I’ll untangle it,” replied Stanley.The closer they were, the better his voice sounded. It sounded like an expensive cello which played a beautiful melody. There was a noble quality to his deep-sounding voice. Listening to it, Xyla felt like she was becoming even more intoxicated. “Is it untangled yet?” she asked. “Hold on…”Stanley lowered his head while he carefully tried to untangle Xyla’s hair from his button. However, there seemed to be an unresolvable knot which could not be untangled swiftly. While their bodies were tightly pressed against each other, Xyla dared not move about, for fear that she might hurt herself from tugging her hair too hard. In between breaths, her hair softly rubbed against his face. It caused an itchy sensation. For some reason, Xyla felt something pressing against her from behind. Her body trembled and she subconsciously took a st

“I have a pair of scissors in my room. If this doesn’t work, let’s use it,” said Xyla.She could not stand being stuck so closely to Stanley. If this continued, she was afraid that her heart might stop beating.“Alright. Come with me, slowly,” said Stanley while he led her into the room.Xyla pointed at the nightstand. “The scissors are in the drawer of my nightstand.”Without saying a word, Stanley slowly led her to the bed and the two of them sat down together. Carefully, he reached out to the drawer to get the scissors. As soon as he moved, Xyla yelped in pain.“Wait a second. It hurts…” she said.Still staying silent, Stanley pressed her head naturally against his chest while he reached for the scissors. In this affectionate pose, a multitude of feelings were growing at a rapid rate. Xyla began to feel an itch in her heart. There was also a numbing sensation.Soon, Stanley was able to grab the scissors. He carefully cut off that strand of hair before putting the scissors dow

Stanley did not say anything. After chuckling softly, he walked away. Once the door closed behind him, Xyla’s world became calm again. However, her heart was still pounding. The image earlier kept appearing in her mind.Her face was getting redder by the second. Now, Xyla felt as if she would rather just die.***Meanwhile, at the Batton family’s villa, Josh saw Sharon on the couch when he returned home. He immediately walked over and sat down next to her.“Mom, why are you here?”“Did you see your brother?”“Yeah…”“Did he tell you everything he ought to?”Josh let out a long sigh and rubbed his forehead in exhaustion.“He did. Don’t worry. I won’t set my eyes on my sister-in-law in the future.”Ever since he was a young boy, he found it difficult to fall in love with anyone. When he eventually did, the person turned out to be his sister-in-law. What kind of drama was this?Josh felt as if something was stuck in his chest and made it difficult for him to breathe. He kept Shar
