Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 750

Besides, he said that he was going to introduce several veterans to her.

Hence, she agreed to go.

After hanging up the phone, she realized that Stanley Batton had texted her two hours ago. “Honey, I’ve arrived.”

Staring at that message, the corner of Xyla Quest’s soft lips gradually curved upward into a smile, happiness glowing within her.

Without further ado, she video-called him.

On the other end of the phone, Stanley was having a meeting in Kingstell, Country Y.

He was currently sitting in a conference room of his branch office with a group of blonde executives, earnestly discussing the cause and solution regarding the phone’s explosion.

The man kept a straight face all the time, and he could speak French fluently.

The conference room was grand and spacious, yet the tension was palpable. Everyone was sitting on the edge of their seats, fearing that they would put their foot in it.

Buzz buzz buzz…

Stanley’s phone vibrated. Noticing that his wife was trying to video call him, all the ice on his face had instantly melted away. He picked up the call without hesitation.

Soon, Xyla’s face showed up on the screen.

Behind her was the cloudy blue sky outside her office’s french window.

“What are you doing?” Xyla asked.

“I’m having a meeting.”

“Oh… I’ll leave you to it then. I’ll call you later.”

“Hold on…”

“Yes?” Xyla asked again.

“Remember to eat on time, alright?” A serious expression was etched upon Stanley’s face.

“I know. You too, okay? Don’t overwork yourself,” reminded Xyla.

“Okay.”
