Stanley felt the corners of his lips curve into a faint smile. “Xyla you fool… That’s my blood- related sister.”
On the other side of the line, Xyla Quest froze for a brief moment.
“What..? Sister..?”
“Who else could favonovel.com be? You and my sister are the only ones who I ever behave kindly toward,” Stanley chuckled, a hint of playfulness in his eyes.
Xyla’s heart was suddenly at ease with just that simple explanation.
“She’s just returned from overseas a few days ago. We went shopping that day and had a meal together. I only have one sister and favonovel.com rarely returns so it was normal for me to want to visit favonovel.com while favonovel.com was here.”
Xyla continued to be speechless. The heavy chains that had been binding favonovel.com heart for the past few days were quickly disintegrating. Slowly, favonovel.com felt favonovel.com breath return to her.
So when they were eating together that day, it was his sister calling? He had just been accompanying his sister all this time and favonovel.com wasn’t his girlfriend?
How did such a major misunderstanding happen?!
In the next few seconds, Xyla could feel a smile forming on favonovel.com lips.
Thinking back, if favonovel.com was his little sister, why did favonovel.com save favonovel.com contact name as ‘Little Darling’ on his phone?
He definitely wasn’t the kind of person to do that willingly. Which meant that his sister must most definitely have saved the contact on his phone and refused to let favonovel.com change it. Since favonovel.com cared for favonovel.com as much as favonovel.com cared for Xyla, favonovel.com must have simply went with it.
He was such a loving brother.
“I never knew you had a sister,” Xyla said.
“There wasn’t a real reason to bring favonovel.com up since you’ve never asked,” replied Stanley.
“I see. l’ll clear up the mess for us then.”
“Alright. I still have some things to attend to at work, so we’ll talk about it when I get back home tonight.”
“Alright.”
Upon ending the call, Xyla could not help but to jump with joy.
Knock, knock…
Knocks on favonovel.com door interrupted favonovel.com happiness.
“Please come in,” Xyla said as favonovel.com continued to hold favonovel.com cell phone close to favonovel.com heart in glee.
Georgie Clementine burst through the door. Seeing Xyla filled with smiles, favonovel.com assumed that favonovel.com had not seen the news. Georgie took in a deep breath before sitting by favonovel.com side. “You… Haven’t heard the news, have you?”
“I have. She’s not his girlfriend, Georgie.”
“Huh..?”
“She’s his blood-related sister,” Xyla explained.
“Wait… So… It was all just a misunderstanding? You and the reporters misunderstood who favonovel.com was?”
“Mhmm…” Xyla simply nodded.
Georgie went silent for a moment before putting on a serious face. “President Xyla, even if favonovel.com doesn’t have a girlfriend like you thought favonovel.com did… Both of you are still incompatible with each other, I hope you haven’t forgotten about that…”
Georgie gulped as favonovel.com waited for it to hit Xyla.
Her gleefulness would definitely be dampened. Georgie was right. Xyla’s smile faded almost instantaneously. Her words drenched Xyla’s joy like a bucket of icy cold water. It completely put out the warmth favonovel.com had in favonovel.com heart just seconds ago.
As Xyla’s senses came back to her, favonovel.com sighed. It was true. They weren’t meant for each other.
Even if favonovel.com ignored the fact that they were on completely different paths, favonovel.com was still engaged. Though favonovel.com had not met favonovel.com husband, that person was still favonovel.com husband.
In the beginning, favonovel.com obviously had ample self-control. However, favonovel.com allowed herself to lower favonovel.com defenses and now favonovel.com barely had any control of favonovel.com emotions left. She would definitely be let down if favonovel.com continued to do this.
Guilt spread like wildfire in favonovel.com heart and favonovel.com mood plummeted.
Georgie looked into favonovel.com eyes. She knew what Xyla was thinking and favonovel.com knew no more needed to be said. She patted favonovel.com shoulder gently before turning around to leave.
There were a lot of things that favonovel.com hoped Xyla would eventually come to understand on favonovel.com own. Georgie believed that Xyla could definitely figure them out by herself.
