It took him fourteen minutes to finish this game.

By the time she was done eating, his game had ended.

It could be said that it was his abilities alone that helped the team win so quickly.

Even if she had spotted many flaws in his controls, this was good enough.

“Not bad…” Xyla praised.

“Will you keep playing?” Stanley asked.

“Nope. I’m getting ready to go to work,” Xyla answered.

“Then, go on, I’m going out for work as well,” replied Stanley.

“Remember to eat lunch,” Xyla reminded.

“Yeah,” he grunted a response before leaving without looking back.

Xyla called to make a reservation at the restaurant for tonight before sending him the restaurant’s address.

After that, she changed her clothes and left the house.

The moment he was about to close the door, a hand reached over and stopped him from closing the door.

Without waiting for him to respond, four men in black clothing immediately lifted him out of the car and covered his nose with a handkerchief.

In an instant, Tom’s mind was flooded with fear. He struggled with all his might.
