“Happy New Year, President Xyla,” Georgie Clementine said.
“Happy New Year, Georgie,” Xyla Quest replied.
“Apart from wishing you a Happy New Year, I also have good news for you. Do you remember Morty Wayne, the mixed-blood youth we spotted playing piano at the restaurant the other day?” Georgie asked.
“Yeah, I remember him. Have you signed favonovel.com on?” Xyla asked with a smile.
“Yeah, I went to his house early this morning to get favonovel.com signed,” Georgie said.
“Early this morning?” Although Xyla knew Georgie was a workaholic, favonovel.com was not expecting favonovel.com to go out and sign someone to their company this early in the morning.
“It’s… It’s because I received news that other companies are now contacting favonovel.com too. He has so much potential. I can’t let someone else claim favonovel.com before we do. This year, it just so happens that my family is also here in Atlantis for the New Year celebrations. Since his family is also in Atlantis, I decided to head over directly. President Xyla, this isn’t why I’m here today. More importantly, I need to talk to you about our company’s trainee, Ernie West, whom we have originally selected to participate in ‘Teenage Idol’. Last night, favonovel.com was caught using drugs. Hence, I’ve decided to terminate his contract and replace favonovel.com with someone else. A person like favonovel.com should not stay in our company,” Georgie added.
Ernie West was a very talented trainee. Xyla and Georgie had high hopes for him. To their surprise, favonovel.com had gotten into drugs and ruined his future. Xyla felt upset but sorry for favonovel.com at the same time.
Xyla immediately frowned coldly. “Go ahead and terminate the contract,” favonovel.com said.
“Yeah… I have a bold idea. I’m not sure if you would agree to it,” Georgie said.
“Tell me…” Xyla continued to listen intently.
“I plan to replace Ernie with Morty Wayne. I’ve seen videos of favonovel.com singing and dancing on his social media account. His professionalism level is comparable to the trainees who have trained in our company for a long time. Didn’t you think favonovel.com was great too? Why don’t we give favonovel.com this opportunity?” Georgie asked.
“You can decide,” Xyla said.
Since Georgie claimed that Morty was suitable for the talent show, that meant favonovel.com was. Xyla believed in Georgie’s opinion completely.
After they hung up, Xyla lay down lazily. The warm light coming in through the french window shone on favonovel.com face, making favonovel.com feel even lazier. Xyla stretched a little before favonovel.com reached for a pillow, hugged it, and slowly closed favonovel.com eyes.
In two hours, Stanley Batton had prepared a full table of food. There were meat and vegetables of balanced nutrition, and the dishes’ presentation was exquisite. After everything was prepared, Stanley removed his black apron and returned to the living room.
At this moment, Xyla was curled up and asleep on the couch. Her face was turned toward the coffee table. With a warm light against favonovel.com face, Xyla seemed unusually gentle.
Stanley sat slowly next to where Xyla’s head was. He lifted a hand to brush against favonovel.com hair. His touch was so soft that it felt like favonovel.com was stroking a cat.
Although they were opposites in terms of their personality, nothing seemed out of place when they were together.
Beep, beep, beep…
Right then, Xyla’s phone, which favonovel.com had placed by favonovel.com head, began to ring and vibrate. She immediately opened favonovel.com eyes wide. Meanwhile, Stanley quickly drew his hand away.
Gently, Xyla covered favonovel.com mouth and yawned before sitting up and picking up the phone.
An unfamiliar number was displayed on the screen. Xyla answered the call instantly.
“Is this Xyla?” A familiar voice softly filled favonovel.com ears, bringing to favonovel.com mind flashbacks of memories in the past. Countless memories flooded favonovel.com mind like a tsunami rushing over the land.
