Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 479

“Okay. I’ll make those for you in a bit,” Stanley Batton said.

“Oh, right. I also want a bowl of cream of mushroom soup. Do you know how to make it?” Xyla Quest asked.

“I don’t, but I can learn,” he said.

“Oh, okay,” Xyla said.

The high-level executives on Stanley’s computer screen were all dumbfounded.

This woman had ordered their CEO to cook for her. She even said it matter-of-factly. It appeared as if their CEO cooked for her frequently.

Could the cold and distant Stanley Batton have a soft side like this?

Everyone looked at each other, as countless questions appeared in their minds. In the end, they all muted their microphones and began whispering among themselves.

“Did I hear that wrongly? Does our CEO cook in his private life? It’s impossible to imagine our demon king wearing an apron and making soup.”

“No way… Who is this woman? Our CEO has broken the rules for her more than once. Oh my god. Isn’t she amazing?”

“I have no idea, and I dare not ask. My entire family is shocked! I can only feel that our CEO is a warm-hearted person when he spoke to this woman.”

“We have agreed that nobody could pick up personal calls during a meeting. Why has he done so repeatedly? What does this woman look like?”

After carefully listening to Xyla’s instructions, he hung up and shifted his attention back to his computer screen.

Everyone on the screen instantly turned on their microphones and seriously resumed the meeting. None of them dared to question him.

Stanley looked at them coldly as if nothing had happened. “Let’s continue…”

After that, the meeting continued.

At noon, Stanley returned to his ancient, castle-like villa in the suburbs.

Since Wilson Batton was home, the villa was bustling with noise and excitement.
