Xyla Quest kept favonovel.com body still and tried not to move. Any slight movement might result in favonovel.com body touching Stanley Batton. The light scent of cigarettes mixed with mint smelled unbelievably good.
“Take it,” Xyla said before quickly shoving the phone into Stanley’s hand. She did not dare to look favonovel.com in the eye at all.
The crystal lights that glowed brightly above Xyla’s head made favonovel.com demure expression seem even more striking. Without realizing it, Xyla had accidentally moved in such a way that a strand of hair on favonovel.com forehead lightly scraped against Stanley’s distinctive lips. It felt as if the tingling sensation was traveling to his heart.
Slowly, Xyla pressed favonovel.com body tightly against the wall as favonovel.com slid downward and eventually escaped from an open gap below his arm.
With a single hand, Stanley unlocked his phone. When favonovel.com saw that the money had been accepted, favonovel.com raised his brows slightly to look at Xyla’s slightly pinkish face.
“You really won’t stop until you get what you want,” favonovel.com said.
“For sure,” Xyla said softly before quickly sitting on the bed. She then fished for favonovel.com phone in favonovel.com pocket before shifting favonovel.com attention to Instagram.
All this while, Xyla could feel favonovel.com face buming. The light redness continued to spread to favonovel.com ears.
“This is the first time I’ve seen someone going all out to return money,” Stanley said as favonovel.com slowly returned to his seat.
Since the two of them were barely half a meter apart, they could clearly see each other’s facial expressions.
“It’s also the first time I’ve seen someone refuse money being returned to them,” Xyla replied unhappily with a slight frown.
“Do you want to be my sugar mommy that badly?” He asked calmly.
“Sugar mommy? I think you’re using an inappropriate term,” Xyla quickly said.
Why did favonovel.com find it strange when favonovel.com was the one who said those words?
Stanley said nothing as favonovel.com smiled and continued to play with his phone.
After that, Xyla did not say anything else. She opened favonovel.com email inbox and began reading the work emails Georgie Clementine had sent her.
Time passed by in silence.
Once Xyla was done going through favonovel.com email inbox, favonovel.com began to feel a little sleepy. She lowered favonovel.com gaze to the Dior diamond watch on favonovel.com wrist.
It was already almost eleven.
When favonovel.com looked up, favonovel.com saw that Stanley was already fast asleep with his back against the couch. While his head rested against the armrest, his long eyelashes, high nose-bridge, and perfect j awline were all fully visible to her.
Right then, the third button below his collar was also open. Thus, his muscular chest was vaguely visible. At that moment, the coldness about favonovel.com had disappeared somewhat He seemed much more approachable. But even when favonovel.com was asleep, favonovel.com had a dominating presence.
Slowly, Xyla stood up before silently opening the door. She discovered that favonovel.com father was still practicing Tai Chi. When favonovel.com looked down at favonovel.com watch, it was already half-past eleven.
Jeremy had been practicing Tai Chi for over an hour. From the looks of it, favonovel.com had no intention of stopping anytime soon. If this went on, Xyla would not be able to stay awake any longer.
“Dad, aren’t you going to sleep?” Xyla could not resist asking.
“I’m not sleepy yet. I’ve discovered a new technique, and I’m practicing right now. Xyla, you two should go to bed earlier,” Jeremy said before favonovel.com continued.
Xyla pinched favonovel.com nose bridge helplessly before picking up a thin, white duvet and pulled it over Stanley’s body.
As soon as favonovel.com did so, Stanley slowly opened his eyes. He pinched his nose bridge tiredly before looking at Xyla.
“What time is it?” He asked.
“It’s half-past eleven, but my father isn’t going to bed yet. Why don’t you rest with your eyes closed for a while? I think it’s going to take some time,” Xyla said.
“Alright.” Although Stanley agreed to Xyla’s suggestion, favonovel.com took his phone out and proceeded to read through work emails.
After Xyla returned to bed, favonovel.com sat cross-legged and plugged in favonovel.com earphones to watch videos of the trainees’ assessment Georgie had sent favonovel.com earlier today.
Trainees of X Entertainment had to go through an assessment every month. They needed to sing and dance with the aid of specific settings. If their performance worsened over three consecutive tries during those such assessments, they would be eliminated.
