“I’m not in a hurry. I can take it anyway,” Betty Starmount said.“All right then, as you wish,” Xyla Quest replied.Jeremy Quest helplessly rubbed Betty’s back before gazing at his daughter. “Betty is very stubborn. I have advised her to reach out to you, but she wouldn’t. She is afraid you might prescribe her with traditional medicine.”“Well, remember to come to me if you can’t take it anymore,” Xyla said as she looked up at Betty.Betty immediately nodded, silently sighing in relief.Meanwhile, Xyla carefully filled everyone’s bowl with porridge.After breakfast, Betty walked into the kitchen and carried a large bowl of bird’s nest into the dining room, placing it on the table before distributing the contents into several bowls.“None for me, thanks," Stanley spoke up. "Can't stomach the stuff.”Betty nodded with a knowing smile. “I know, that’s why I didn’t fill yours.”After that, she placed a bowl of bird’s nest in front of Xyla, who did not hesitate to pick up her sp

Jeremy Quest’s heart clenched at the sight of Betty Starmount’s sad demeanor.He gently held her hand. “What’s the matter? It's only a cold, why do you seem so troubled?”Betty forced a smile on her face. “It’s nothing, I just feel awful seeing you sick like this.”Jeremy felt deeply touched by her words.“Betty, I consider myself very lucky. Despite my age, I still met someone beautiful like you who would take care of me and worry about me.“Someone was selling a limited-edition purse on Amazon, so I bought one for you and also for Xyla,” Jeremy said.Her heart swelled with warmth, her eyes turning red."Thank you.”“None of that," he chuckled, "we are a couple.”Betty tried her best to smile. “Nobody else in the world could be as good to me as you.”“I’ll try to live a few years longer to be with you. Even if I die, I’ll make sure you live comfortably for the rest of your life. Don’t worry,” he said.Her eyes filled with tears again. “Thank you.”“Didn't you hear when I s

Out of resentment, everyone started verbally attacking Xyla Quest on Weibo.Suddenly, she became the talk of the town.After the usual Monday's meeting in Quest Group, Xyla returned to her office. She then saw the discussion about herself on Weibo.Xyla frowned slightly, feeling curious about the person who leaked the news.What was the motive for doing so?Xyla felt deeply annoyed by all the criticisms.Right then, she realized her Weibo inbox had been spammed with private messages—“Xyla, I heard you brought in military men to excavate the ancient tomb. Are you crazy?”“You are disgusting! How could you ask the people who were supposed to defend the country to do such a thing for you?”“Do you have special rights? Tsk, tsk. You are being way too high-profile.”“We pay taxes for those military men. They are not supposed to be for your private business. Have you no shame?”The more Xyla read, the more annoyed she felt.Xyla promptly published a Weibo post to explain the sit

There were tons of apologies beneath Xyla Quest’s Weibo post—“Sorry, Xyla. You’re a benevolent person. Your donation is a significant contribution to our country.”“I’m no longer a hater. I’m a fan now, sorry.”“I hope those haters are embarrassed. What you thought was impossible indeed had happened.”“Xyla, you are a role model for this generation. Please accept my apology.”Xyla, who was still working, could hear her phone constantly pinging due to the Weibo notifications.She shook her head helplessly when she saw everyone’s comments.After that, she logged into her Weibo account to check things out about herself.Once she realized the reason behind this turn of events, she released a long sigh of relief.However, she didn’t dwell on it because everything that happened was within her expectations.Meanwhile, messages flooded her WeChat, where people who mattered to her, like Jeremy Quest, Sharon Lindt, Wilson Batton, Josh Batton, and Stanley Batton, were all congratulatin

With the car windows rolled down halfway, Sophie Kenwick could see half of Gary Lakes’ face.A ray of light happened to shine against his face, making him appear unusually sophisticated and fresh.Occasionally, young women would walk past his car, only to steal glances at him as they walked past.However, Gary remained emotionless from the start. He would occasionally look outside, ignoring them completely.Smoke swirled around in his car as he had been smoking inside, making him appear aloof and mysterious.As soon as he saw Sophie, he instantly put out his cigarette and got out of the car.Gary was sporting a beige woolen coat that had traditional motives over a white woolen sweater, as well as a pair of long pants and black Martin boots.There was an air of nobility to his tall frame.He quickly attracted a lot of attention from girls around him.Men like him could easily make any woman fall head over heels in love with him wherever he went.They felt enchanted just by loo

Gary Lakes smiled tenderly.Sophie Kenwick accepted the tickets with a beaming smile on her face. “Thank you, Gary.”“You’re welcome. Have you had lunch?” he asked.As they spoke, her stomach started growling, and her face reddened with embarrassment at the sound. Gary chuckled. “Hmm, sounds like you haven’t. Would you like to join me for some food?”Sophie began to nod but then hastily shook her head after that.She couldn't just run off when she needed to stay by Xyla’s side to protect her.Gary raised his brows briefly with a slightly curious look in his eyes. “What’s the matter? Are you turning me down?”“No, but I was supposed to eat with Xyla,” she told him.“That’s easy, we’ll get Xyla to come along,” he decided and then proceeded to call Xyla Quest on his phone.“What are you up to, Xyla?” There was a constantly tender look in his eyes.“I’m working. What’s up, Gary?” Xyla asked.“Let’s have lunch together.” “No, I can’t. I still have work to do,” she replied, gl

Sophie Kenwick felt happy when she thought about how she’d soon be able to eat.Her voice immediately pulled Xyla Quest out of her thoughts.Xyla composed herself and gazed at Sophie. “Yeah, let’s go. Aren’t you hungry?”Sophie nodded while she eagerly led Xyla outside. “Yes, I am starving.”“I’m sorry, I was so distracted with work that I forgot about you,” Xyla said.Sophie immediately shook her head. “It’s fine. I know you’re busy with work. It’s understandable.”Xyla felt her heart swell with warmth when she heard her words of consideration.By then, Gary had already opened the car doors to the passenger’s side as well as the backseat.It was currently lunchtime, so employees from surrounding buildings had all walked outside.When they noticed Gary, Xyla, and Sophie, they couldn’t resist staring at them, especially the women who stared at Gary in admiration.Meanwhile, Gary cast a soft gaze upon Xyla and Sophie. “Get in.”Xyla smiled before quickly getting into the backs

There was a warm sensation in her stomach, almost as if something warm was flowing through her.It felt very comforting for Xyla Quest.She subconsciously touched the part of her stomach that felt warm, where her baby was.Xyla knew fetal movement occurred a few months into the pregnancy, but she had never heard anyone describing the feeling as such.Aside from the comforting sensation, Xyla quickly checked her pulse to see if her vital signs were normal.Upon checking, she realized that she was unnecessarily worried and there was nothing wrong with her body.She immediately sighed in relief.Sensing that something was amiss with Xyla, Gary Lakes asked, “What’s wrong? Do you feel unwell?”She shook her head. “No, I’m fine.”Gary sighed in relief. “That’s great. Stanley will kill me if anything happens to you while you’re out with me."“That’s a bit over the top,” she chuckled.“Of course, it isn’t. Who in Atlantis doesn’t know that you are the apple of his eye?” Gary said wi

No matter what Gary Lakes said, Sophie Kenwick wasn’t convinced.He found himself being increasingly intrigued by this girl.Girls like her were rare these days.Despite many good job opportunities out there, she didn’t seem interested or even consider using her connections as a stepping stone to stardom.Instead, she willingly stayed by Xyla Quest’s side to be a bodyguard.Gary wondered briefly if Sophie was too intelligent or too daft.He perused her from head to toe, deciding it was probably the latter.“You’re quite unusual,” he declared all of a sudden.“Hehe, instead of unusual, you could say that I love Xyla a lot,” Sophie replied.“You shouldn't say this too often in front of Stanley, or I’m afraid he might think of you as his rival in romance,” Gary smirked.Sophie immediately chuckled. “That doesn’t matter, my brother knows I’m into men.”Gary laughed, feeling entertained by her.This girl was definitely interesting.“Gary, since you are one of the sponsors for J

“Sophie, you must have tickets to the concert. Could you sell one to me? I’m willing to pay any amount.”“Sophie, I’ve never said anything bad about you. I’m your fan. As long as you sell me a ticket, I’ll do whatever you ask me to from now on. Please.”Sophie Kenwick was speechless.Josh Batton’s fans were a passionate lot. Moreover, she felt touched by the things they said.She could sense how much these people loved Josh from the words they used.They were much bigger fans of Josh than Sophie was.As a fan, she could understand how they felt and empathized with them.She immediately turned to look at Xyla Quest. “Xyla, do you have any extra tickets to the concert?”Xyla nodded. “Yeah. I have one or two, depending on whether your brother goes."“Could you give it to me?” Sophie asked.Xyla shrugged. “Of course. Never mind concert tickets, I would give you the stars in the sky if that’s what you wanted.”Sophie immediately felt touched.After that, she published a Weibo po
