However, when Emily Quest recalled that she was supposed to be heavily depressed, she quickly showed a sad facial expression.
Soon, Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton arrived at Ballroom 8, where the Quest family’s charity dinner was held.
Xyla and Stanley walked through the door holding each other’s hand. As soon as they entered the ballroom, all eyes were on them.
Xyla was wearing a slim-fit, lavender, mermaid dress with diamond jewelry worth up to millions of dollars. She was glowing like a fairy.
Stanley, on the other hand, was wearing a high-class, custom-made Armani suit. His hair was loosely brushed to the back of his head, making him appear noble yet aloof.
The two were a perfect couple, with Stanley appearing like an ideal man and Xyla appearing like a perfect woman.
Nobody could look away.
The lights by the door made them appear even brighter.
There was no one else in the ballroom who looked better than the two of them.
“Isn’t this Xyla Quest? She really is beautiful. She’s too beautiful. And her husband looks even better!!!”
“These two must be the best-looking couple in Country Z, right? I’ve never seen anyone as good together.”
“Xyla truly is like a goddess. How could she have such a divine aura about her?”
Many people couldn’t resist talking among themselves.
Tom Sullivan could hear what these people were saying, and he felt deeply hurt but was unable to express it.
When Tom looked at the Xyla, who seemed to be glowing like a diamond, he felt an awful tingling sensation in his heart.
This fairy-like woman used to do whatever he asked her to, but he didn’t appreciate her enough, and he always treated her indifferently.
