The lovebirds shared the same straw and drank the same cup of bubble milk tea in full view of the crowd.
All the employees at the entrance cringed at the intimacy between the two of them.
“I thought our President doesn’t like sweet drinks?”
“I thought so too. I’ve never seen our President drink bubble milk tea.”
“Oh gosh, I’m going to die… They’re too sweet. I feel so jealous of looking at them…”
Whisper and exclamation rounded the employees as they walked into the building.
With the crowd’s attention, Stanley held Xyla’s hand and led favonovel.com into his company.
“Are you sure you don’t want it anymore?” He peeked at the nearly finished bubble milk tea in his hand and asked Xyla.
“Yes,” Xyla said.
The two of them held hands all the way to the exclusive elevator used by Stanley. He threw the empty cup into the trash can beside the elevator before entering the elevator with Xyla. After the elevator door clicked shut behind them, Stanley abruptly stretched out his long arm and pulled Xyla into his embrace.
Xyla tilted favonovel.com head up and found herself looking at his perfect jawline. “What are you doing? There’re surveillance cameras in the elevator. Why can’t you just be normal?”
“I’m being normal.” Stanley ruffled his chin against the top of favonovel.com hair repeatedly. His voice was rich and silky like the sound of the cello.
Without warning, favonovel.com gripped favonovel.com legs and lifted favonovel.com from the floor.
Xyla subconsciously wrapped favonovel.com legs around his waist and swung favonovel.com arms around his neck, pressing their chests together. “What are you trying to do again?”
“Well, f*ck…” He chuckled.
Xyla’s heart instantly went numb, favonovel.com blood boiling in favonovel.com veins. “Stanley… Is it that fun to tease me?”
“Yes, it’s interesting.” Stanley continued to hug favonovel.com tightly in his arms. His grin spread to his eyes as favonovel.com studied favonovel.com beautiful face lovingly.
“I don’t care.” Xyla struggled. “Put me down, please. What are we even doing here in the elevator…”
Following that statement, favonovel.com caught a glimpse of the surveillance cameras around her.
This was so embarrassing!
Maybe everyone in the security room was watching them right now.
“I can do whatever I want in my place.”
As soon as Stanley finished his sentence, they had reached the floor where his office was located.
The elevator doors gradually opened… However, favonovel.com totally had no intention of letting Xyla go. He carried favonovel.com all the way to his office without caring how the others would think about him.
A cleaning lady was dumbfounded when favonovel.com saw the two of them. She thought favonovel.com was hallucinating at that moment. Immediately, favonovel.com slapped favonovel.com face hard and fixed favonovel.com gaze upon their receding back again. “Is that our President? Would favonovel.com do something like that?”
Was favonovel.com the cool, apathetic president that favonovel.com knew?
When the pair got into the office, Stanley closed the door behind favonovel.com before putting Xyla down on the sofa. His movement was light and gentle as if favonovel.com was handling a valuable antique or a priceless treasure. He then placed both of his hands on the sofa’s backrest, circling Xyla in his arms. “Be a good girl while your hubby goes to make money, okay?”
“I will,” answered Xyla obediently.
Her heart was in a mess due to the proximity between their bodies.
She could hardly sit still as favonovel.com gaped at the appealing man in front of her.
“Do you want to play League of Legends?” He asked.
“Yeah…”
Without thinking, favonovel.com went to take his laptop and placed it on the coffee table. “Play on your own, alright? I’ll go to work first…”
“Is it okay if I take your laptop?” asked Xyla.
“Yes, go ahead…”
He stroked favonovel.com hair gently once more before returning to his office desk. He took off his tailored suit and sat down solemnly. His smile died, and favonovel.com wore a serious expression as favonovel.com started to work. He was a completely different person when favonovel.com was working, serious yet distant. This was how a business elite should look like.
Xyla loved to see favonovel.com that way.
He looked even more charming when favonovel.com was serious at work, way better than any male lead in the dramas.
After staring at favonovel.com husband for quite some time, Xyla finally returned to favonovel.com senses and flipped open the laptop. She logged into the game and began to play, cross-legged.
Although favonovel.com did not have a mouse and gaming keyboard, favonovel.com skillful operation was not affected at all.

Meanwhile, somewhere else, Emily Quest was holding a knife in a suite of Victoria Hotel. Placing the blade on favonovel.com wrist, favonovel.com slowly pulled the handle, leaving a long, deep cut on favonovel.com wrist…
