Everyone immediately swarmed around Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton in a circle.
Many of them began to pull them aside to chat with them. While some commented on how Xyla had changed, others complimented Stanley for his good looks. Suddenly, they became the center of attention.
When Gigi Graham saw this, she started feeling unhappy.
Originally, she was the center of everyone’s attention in the room, but that changed when Xyla showed up. Gigi felt extremely agitated.
After seeing Xyla’s face, she felt even more annoyed. How could Xyla become this pretty? While both of them were women, Gigi felt inferior in comparison to Xyla..
Gigi immediately grabbed the man dressed in a suit next to her by his arm and walked up to Xyla and Stanley.
As soon as the man saw Stanley, he froze for a moment before he spoke. “Chief…” He began to speak.
Stanley gave the man a hard look as he nodded, signaling to the man to shut up.
Only then did the man quickly shut his mouth and lowered his head.
Everyone was too busy chatting and joking around at this point to notice these tiny details.
Gigi folded her arms arrogantly across her chest and looked at Xyla with the side-eye. “Xyla Quest, you have become quite good-looking.”
After finishing her sentence, Gigi shifted her gaze to Stanley. She looked him up and down before turning to look at Xyla. “Xyla, my father told me that your husband studied Chinese medicine. Is that so?”
“Yes,” Xyla answered blandly.
“If you were to ask me, Xyla, I must say I really admire you for having the courage to marry a man without any career foundations,” Gigi said before turning to look at Stanley.
