Chapter 359

Eventually, Stanley Batton carried Xyla Quest out of the car and carefully made his way into the house. He was gentle when he walked, and when he opened the door.

Stanley carried Xyla all the way to the master bedroom. After getting inside, he pressed his back against the switch to turn on the light.

The dark room became bright.

When Xyla slowly opened her eyes, she realized that she was in Stanley’s arms. Her heart immediately clenched. “Why didn’t you wake me?”

“I couldn’t,” he said.

Xyla felt so awkward that she didn’t know what to say.

What did he mean he couldn’t wake her? Was she too soundly asleep? Didn’t that mean she looked like a pig?

“I must have been too tired today,” Xyla said.

Stanley didn’t say anything. He softly placed her on the bed, loosened his collar, and removed a single button on his shirt.

The moment he unbuttoned his shirt, his Adam’s apple moved a little. From her angle, Xyla could see how sexy his Adam’s apple was and how perfect his jawline seemed.
