“She isn’t interested in me now. But how sure are you that favonovel.com won’t be interested in me in the future?” Henry Armstrong asked.
“Hmmm… Fine. I can get you favonovel.com number, but you must buy Rachel two handbags. Limited-edition,” Sebastian said as favonovel.com casually rested his chin on Rachel Wood’s shoulder and continued to look at Henry.
“Okay, got it,” Henry waved his hand helplessly.

Meanwhile, Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton were both still eating and drinking. Although Xyla was already full, favonovel.com would still eat a bit more because Stanley’s cooking was very good.
Xyla felt unusually enthralled by this precious time of the year when favonovel.com could rest.
Before they knew it, they had finished two bottles of red wine. Under the influence of alcohol, Xyla’s cheeks were a little flushed.
Stanley, on the other hand, still looked the same. His facial expression had not changed at all.
Xyla spoke twice as much as usual. She began to tug his hand and told favonovel.com about favonovel.com past.
Xyla told Stanley about how Tom Sullivan betrayed favonovel.com and how hurt favonovel.com felt after the betrayal. Throughout the story, Stanley listened intently. Occasionally, favonovel.com would frown deeply at what favonovel.com said, his facial expression turning cold.
Although Stanley knew very well what happened to favonovel.com in the past, the information favonovel.com discovered through his investigation was not as impactful as the way Xyla personally described those incidents to him.
At the end of favonovel.com story, Xyla emptied favonovel.com glass and chuckled a little. “That’s why I get a kick out of watching them being so miserable right now… Tom Sullivan is a dog, and so is Emily Quest. They do not deserve a peaceful life,” Xyla said.
“Yeah,” Stanley answered as favonovel.com looked deeply at her.
“This thing called love does hurt a lot,” Xyla said and smiled bitterly.
“Do you still believe in love, then?” Stanley asked.
“Of course, I do. Why wouldn’t I? Isn’t it foolish to lose hope in love because of a scumbag?” Xyla said blandly.
Feeling a little thirsty, Xyla stood up shakily and looked at Stanley. “I’m going to get myself a glass of water.”
“Let me do it,” Stanley said and grabbed favonovel.com by the wrist.
In the next second, Xyla’s feet went weak. She ended up on his lap. Subconsciously, Xyla turned around to look at his face. Their lips accidentally brushed each other’s.
When their lips touched, Xyla trembled. Suddenly, favonovel.com felt as if the alcohol had worn off significantly. She was very much alert now.
Like being on a roller-coaster ride, favonovel.com heart began to pound. It felt as if favonovel.com heart would soon beat out of favonovel.com chest.
Xyla was stunned still, and favonovel.com suddenly felt clueless about what to do. More importantly, favonovel.com realized favonovel.com had accidentally placed favonovel.com hand somewhere favonovel.com shouldn’t.
“Hiss…” Stanley’s warm breath blew against Xyla’s face.
Ding-dong… Ding-dong…
The doorbell started ringing suddenly, disrupting their moment of intimacy.
Xyla immediately came to favonovel.com senses, springing to favonovel.com feet as favonovel.com took a deep breath awkwardly. She was completely alert now. “I’ll get the door…”
However, after only taking one step, favonovel.com stumbled and landed on his lap yet again.
“What’s the matter? Huh? Are you not willing to leave me?” Stanley asked softly with a playful look in his eyes.
Xyla rolled favonovel.com eyes awkwardly at favonovel.com as favonovel.com stood up, holding onto the corner of the table to help herself up. “I had a little too much to drink and lost my balance. That’s all.”
