It was because Xyla knew that Stanley Batton had never messed up anything in his life. Everything he did was flawless.
“Xyla, Stan, what are you two talking about? Are you guys discussing your performance?” Bailey Ronson said again.
Xyla simply smiled before she turned to meet her eyes. “You’re right. We’re going to sing.”
Disbelief and confusion were swimming in Jeremy Quest’s eyes. “Are you serious?”
However, Xyla responded to him with a confident nod. “Yes, Daddy. I’ll tell the host that my husband and I are going to sing after Ava Carter’s ‘From Now On’.”
Having no other choices, Jeremy nodded.
Getting up from her seat, Xyla strode toward the stage and whispered her request to the beautiful host standing aside.
The host nodded her head without hesitation.
With that out of the way, Xyla grinned at the host before returning to Stanley’s side.
Soon, Ava Carter’s performance ended in a big round of applause.
The beautiful host walked to the center of the stage with a stunning smile on her face and announced, “Next, I would like to introduce Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton, who will be singing ‘Unrestrained’ for us this evening. Please join me to welcome them to the stage!”
As soon as the host had just finished her sentence, two workers quickly carried the Chinese zither to the center of the stage.
Immediately, all eyes fell on Xyla as well as Stanley.
Everyone’s eyes were filled with curiosity.
“What’s going on? Is Xyla going to perform with her husband?”
“The Chinese zither? Is one of them going to play it?”
“I’ve never seen the two of them singing in public. Can they sing?”
