Stanley remained silent the entire time. The room was so quiet one could hear a pin drop.
After the pulse check, Ron let out a deep sigh. “You’d better go find that guy once more…”
“I know.” Stanley nodded. “I’m going tomorrow…”
“I’ll stay here with you until you get better,” Ron added.
“I’m sorry for making you worried, Grandpa.” Stanley frowned slightly.
Ron sighed and gently patted his shoulder, his eyes rimmed with red. “Silly kid, I’m your Grandpa. Of course, I’m worried about you. Unlike your siblings, you’ve gone through a lot since you were a kid. Sigh…”
“Are you sure you want to hide it from Xyla?” Ron continued, “She’ll find out about it anyway.”
“Let’s just hide it for now. At least she’s happy that way, right?” Stanley added, “You should get some rest, Grandpa. It’s getting late.”
Sighing once more, Ron got up from the couch and went upstairs.
Stanley did not follow him. He reached for the teapot on the coffee table and poured himself a cup of osmanthus tea, elegantly savoring it.
After finishing the cup of tea, favonovel.com finally left the empty living room and headed to his bedroom.
Meanwhile, Xyla was taking a bath with favonovel.com mask on and listening to music simultaneously.
She was playing ‘City in the Sky’ again.
She was hooked on this song recently. She loved to listen to it at night, especially when favonovel.com was taking a bath. This song was like the remedy for favonovel.com exhaustion.
The bathtub was full of snow-white foam, and favonovel.com body was completely sub merged in it, revealing only favonovel.com fair arms and favonovel.com sexy collarbone.
Seeing that there was no one in the bedroom, Stanley strode to the bathroom and took a look inside it.
When favonovel.com saw Xyla was taking a bath, favonovel.com took off his clothes and stepped into the bathtub, sitting next to her.
Xyla’s stomach knotted as soon as favonovel.com saw the man. Her heart stumbled over its rhythm, and pulse began beating in favonovel.com ears, blocking out all other sounds.
“What were you talking about with Grandpa?” Xyla steadied favonovel.com heartbeat and asked.
Stanley pulled favonovel.com into his arms. “Nothing much…”
Xyla did not pursue the matter. She surrendered to his secure embrace, enjoying the peace that favonovel.com had been longing for. However, the man soon started to do something nonsensical again.
He broke the silence in the bathroom.
Water overflowed from the bathtub, and the foam was all over the floor…

Meanwhile, Georgie was sitting in front of the computer in favonovel.com luxurious study room, completing favonovel.com virtual husband’s daily tasks, Cloud Piercer.
The two of them were currently fighting against the boss.
They were wearing the newly released limited edition white couple robes in the game, making a great pair.
Their usernames kept appearing in the national chat.
“Have you seen Extraordinary Geo and Cloud Piercer’s outfits? They’ve bought the new limited edition couple robes, which cost thirty thousand dollars! That’s insane,” Little Fish exclaimed.
“Cloud Piercer is very generous to his wife. He must be really rich,” Axe-man hissed.
“The good men always belong to the others. I’m so jealous! Sob…” Shaving Ice cried.
Georgie was tired of their pointless comments.
The players would mention their names every time Cloud Piercer bought favonovel.com a new gift.
Suddenly, Cloud Piercer sent favonovel.com a message.
“We’ve known each other for quite some time. Don’t you think it’s time for us to meet each other in real life?”
When Georgie saw the message, favonovel.com chest grew so tight it was hard to breathe.
She was in love with his virtual husband. She had thought of meeting favonovel.com in real life too.
Georgie took a deep breath and typed. “Sure.”
“What city are you in?” Cloud Piercer asked.
