It was Sharon Lindt who called him. Pressing the green ‘answer’ icon, Stanley Batton picked up his mother’s call while heading to the elevator. The two nurses who walked past Stanley were astounded by his handsome features. Their immediate reaction was to clutch each other’s hands, secretly screaming in excitement. However, Stanley did not give a fig about them. “Stan, our baby girl was awfully bullied by the Sullivans. You ought to make Mary Sullivan pay the price!” Sharon could be heard bellowing in anger on the other end of the phone. Stanley strode into the elevator and pressed the button to close the elevator doors under the attention and admiration of countless girls.“I get it,” he said before he hung up the phone.On the other hand, Xyla could not take her eyes off the supper that Stanley had left behind since the man went out of her ward. She did not notice it, but the corner of her lips had started curving upwards into a gentle smile.She did not touch those supper

After staying at Catherine Batton’s ward for some time, Stanley Batton decided to push Xyla Quest back to her ward. Georgie Clementine followed closely behind them. As soon as the three of them set foot into the ward, Stanley placed his hands around Xyla’s back and knees and lifted her up carefully. After putting her down on the bed, he thoughtfully grabbed a large pillow and placed it behind Xyla so that Xyla could lean on it comfortably.Xyla’s heart was still fluttering and pounding as she looked at the man in front of her.“You should stay with Catherine and look after her. I can take care of myself,” she said.“She will be fine with so many nurses around her.” Stanley reassured her before pulling a chair to sit beside her.“I don’t think it’s a good idea to leave her alone. I have Georgie with me so don’t worry about me,” Xyla continued to insist.“Have you washed your face?” Stanley asked as he ignored her demand. Xyla shook her head in response. Immediately, he got

After reading Zack Cassidy’s reply, Stanley Batton fixed his gaze on Xyla Quest.Xyla, on the other hand, had already fallen asleep here and now. Meanwhile, Zack texted him again and asked, “Do you have any other questions?”Stanley decided to ignore the message so he threw his phone to the side and headed to the bathroom to wash up.***The next morning, Xyla was awakened by a sudden noise of the phone vibrating. Stanley also opened his eyes slowly and stretched his arm at the coffee table, his fingertips searching for his phone. He got up from the couch and shuffled to the floor-to-ceiling window to pick up the call. Xyla sat up and casually stretched her back. She then grasped her phone and clicked open the news app. “Fifth master, Logan Dankworth, the lawyer of Sullivan Food Group, had taken all the blame for bribing the police officers.”“The case had escalated into a huge ruckus and it went viral on the internet, garnering the attention of almost every citizen.”“As

As Catherine Batton spoke, she rotated her right ankle, drawing small circles in the air with her foot.It was not too difficult for her to move around anymore. “That’s great.” Josh Batton handed her the two large bags in his hands. “Speaking of which, I bought you some breakfast and snacks.”“I love you, Sixth brother!” Catherine happily hugged the things he brought in her arms, with a satisfied expression etched on her face.Josh grinned at her reaction as he slid his hand into the pocket of his hoodie. He took out a signed photo of Morty Wayne and Jay Corben and passed it to Catherine. “There you go. You wanted this, right?”Joy sparkled inside Catherine and her mood was elevated once more the moment she saw the photo. Delighted with her brother’s surprise, she stared at the photo for a second or two before lifting her head to glance at Josh. “Thank you so much, Sixth brother. There isn’t a single day that I stopped loving you.”Josh simply patted her head again. “It’s not a

“I won’t be around for a day three days later. Will it be okay to let Georgie take care of you that day?” Stanley Batton asked.There were some important tasks regarding the foreign branch of his company awaiting him. Therefore, he had to travel there to settle the issue on his own. “No problem.” Xyla nodded without asking for further details. Stanley smiled at her before taking the basin of water into the bathroom. At that instant, Xyla’s phone vibrated. When she saw the name ‘Master’ was displayed beside the call symbol, all the congeniality within her melted away and was replaced by indescribable, mixed feelings. Intense guilt kicked in and spread rapidly across her whole heart. It was like a pair of invisible hands that were constantly tearing her soul apart, without mercy. Taking a deep breath, she tried to regulate her emotions and remained as calm as possible before she picked up the call.“Hey Xyla, how are you?” The familiar voice of the old man flowed through he

With a face like that, it would be difficult for her to live a decent life, not to mention revenge. Ron Batton was Xyla Quest’s life savior. However, she broke the promise between them. Her heart sank whenever she reminded herself of her irresponsibility and incapability. She found herself standing as rigid as a pole at the gate, her legs frozen to the ground. It took some time for her to recover from her dejection before she dragged her suitcase and strode into the courtyard. The first thing that she saw as soon as she stepped into the villa was a traditional Chinese style courtyard decorated with different species of flowers and shrubs. It looked the same as it was before she left. Spring was definitely the most beautiful time of the year. The cherry blossoms in the courtyard were fully bloomed and the petals were dancing in the air as the cooling wind blew across the house, carrying a tinge of floral fragrance with it.Stepping across the ground covered with fallen leaves

Ron Batton always kept a low profile as he preferred a peaceful and quiet life. He would never invite anyone to come over even on his birthday. When Xyla Quest was staying with him, the two of them would spend his birthday together every year. “Yeah. My son was here initially but he went back this morning after celebrating my birthday yesterday night.” Ron said.His son, who was her father-in-law… As a matter of fact, she had never seen this man before in her life. “Xyla? What are you thinking about?” Ron’s eyes fixed on her face, attentive and brimming with curiosity. Xyla gathered her thoughts immediately. “It’s nothing…”“Hold on. I’ll boil the herbal medicine for you first before we have lunch. Let’s have a little chat after lunch, okay?” Ron got up from the sofa right away, joy streaked through him like a comet. Rising to her feet, Xyla pulled his wrist and argued, “Please don’t make a fuss about it, Grandpa. I’m alright. Let’s just dig in.” However, Ron pushed her

“What’s the deal? Huh? Tell Grandpa…” Flustered, Ron Batton tried to pry the details out of her.Xyla Quest shook her head. “It doesn’t matter.”She did not want to give him any trouble since today was his birthday. It would be more appropriate for her to tell him the truth tomorrow. However, Ron insisted on pursuing the matter. “That’s not true, there must be something wrong with you. I know you very well. Are you afraid of giving me trouble because it’s my birthday today? Come on, tell Grandpa! You’re the one giving me a hard time if you refuse to tell me your problems.”Xyla, yet, shook her head once more while trying to maintain her calm facade. “You’re imagining things. I’m just excited to see you because we haven’t met for a very long time.”“Lies… Be honest with me!” Ron demanded as his face went dark again. “Did your sister bully you again? Or it is someone else?”“No one bullied me, Grandpa. You’re overthinking.”“Why are you so down then? You must’ve something on yo
