The strong, tingling sensation caused Xyla to take a deep breath. Subconsciously, favonovel.com glanced over at favonovel.com expensive diamond watch by the bedhead and noticed it was already close to noon.
She immediately glared at Stanley angrily. “Stanley, I woke up late because of you again…”
“Hmm…”
“You… You shouldn’t do this next time,” Xyla added.
“Hmm. I’ll keep that in mind, ” Stanley said.
Xyla rolled favonovel.com eyes at Stanley.
‘Keep that in mind? Doesn’t favonovel.com say this every time? When has favonovel.com ever actually kept that in mind?’ Xyla thought.
Beep, beep, beep…
Right then, Stanley’s phone started ringing. Xyla ignored him. After adjusting favonovel.com white silk pajamas, favonovel.com went right into the bathroom. Once Xyla was out of sight, Stanley reached for his phone and looked at the screen.
When favonovel.com saw that the call was from Henry Armstrong, favonovel.com picked up. He then slowly sat up and leaned lazily against the bedhead.
“Zack Cassidy told me you didn’t come into the office today,” Henry said. His voice was accompanied by the sound of cars honking.
“I suddenly thought of a saying. It goes like this, Despite the sun being high up in the sky, a man refuses to wake up…” Henry added.
“Get to the point,” Stanley said blandly.
“It’s nothing. I’m in front of your office. I was just about to go inside to ask you out for lunch. But you’re actually not here… No… I was just surprised that you would reveal your identity on the internet for Xyla last night…” Henry said.
“If there’s nothing important, I’m hanging up…” Stanley said.
Before Henry could say anything, Stanley hung up the phone He didn’t get out of bed right away. Instead, favonovel.com picked up a cigarette, placed it in his mouth, and lit it up with his head lowered. He then began taking puffs from it. His actions made favonovel.com look very cool.
Once Xyla was done brushing favonovel.com teeth, favonovel.com exhaustedly returned to the bedroom and sat in front of the dressing table to put makeup on.
The spotless mirror showed favonovel.com reflection right then. She accidentally wet the hair around favonovel.com temples when favonovel.com was washing favonovel.com face earlier.
Coincidentally, Stanley had finished smoking his cigarette. After glancing over at Xyla, favonovel.com stubbed out the cigarette and entered the bathroom.
Due to the lack of time, Xyla put on very light makeup, and favonovel.com didn’t even put on lipstick. All favonovel.com used instead was a layer of lip moisturizer. Her lips were naturally pinkish. With the glossy lip balm, favonovel.com lips looked almost like succulent plums.
After making sure everything seemed alright, Xyla quickly chose an outfit favonovel.com usually wore to work. She put on a light blue suit, a white shirt, and a pair of beige heels. When favonovel.com walked out of the closet, favonovel.com looked like a completely different person. Although favonovel.com was wearing clothes that favonovel.com randomly selected, favonovel.com still seemed unusually noble.
Xyla quickly went downstairs for breakfast. After that, favonovel.com got into favonovel.com red Maserati and drove to Quest Group’s office while several security cars accompanied it.
When favonovel.com car got close to the office, Xyla could see a bunch of reporters gathered in front of the main entrance from afar. Even without thinking about it, favonovel.com knew these reporters were here because of favonovel.com and Stanley.
Xyla still had a lot of work to get done. Later on, favonovel.com also had to get ready for a tournament. To be honest, favonovel.com really didn’t have much time. Hence, favonovel.com circled to the back entrance before driving favonovel.com car into the garage. After that, favonovel.com took a lift from the garage and arrived at favonovel.com office.
Beep, beep, beep…
Just as favonovel.com entered the office, favonovel.com phone started ringing. When favonovel.com saw the caller’s name on the screen, favonovel.com couldn’t help but smile.
