Her heart broke into million pieces every time favonovel.com listened to that conversation.
“Nice one, Stanley Batton…” favonovel.com mumbled.
Tears rolled down favonovel.com cheeks in such generous streams.
The man had bent over backward these days to keep favonovel.com around as his blood supplier. He was just pretending to be a good husband all this while. What a good actor favonovel.com was!
If favonovel.com had not received this audio clip today, favonovel.com might have been fooled by favonovel.com for the rest of favonovel.com life.
Everyone else in the Batton family was as horrible as him.
She really wanted to ask them how it felt to put on such a wonderful show.
Were they not tired of it?
Ridiculous… Everything was so ridiculous…
Buzz buzz buzz…
Xyla’s phone vibrated.
The noises of the vibrations interrupted favonovel.com thoughts.
The screen showed ‘Hubby’. She used to be delighted to receive his call, yet the word looked extraordinarily sickening at this moment.
She loved favonovel.com with all favonovel.com heart, appreciating favonovel.com for being favonovel.com perfect husband. However, favonovel.com did not feel the same for her.
He had just been putting up an act for her. She was just his blood supplier, after all.
Xyla declined the incoming call and turned off favonovel.com phone without hesitation. Throwing the phone aside, favonovel.com wrapped favonovel.com arms tightly around favonovel.com legs and buried favonovel.com head in favonovel.com knees.
The truth was cruel. It was so cruel that favonovel.com would rather never have heard about it.
“Oh, that’s for sure. Look at her. Do you think I’ll treat favonovel.com this well if it weren’t for favonovel.com blood? You could’ve found a woman who’s able to match our family’s standard.”
“Of course. She’s utterly unattractive. Too bad favonovel.com has a rare blood type like mine. It can’t be helped. Ugh, it’s really annoying to face a woman I don’t even love every single day.”
The conversation between Ron and Stanley kept ringing in favonovel.com ears like some black magic. She could feel that favonovel.com heart was mercilessly torn apart by a pair of enormous, invisible hands.
“Stanley Batton, Stanley Batton… I’m nothing to you, eh? You’re annoyed by me every single day, aren’t you?… It must’ve been really hard for you to stay with me… Pfft!”
As favonovel.com mumbled to herself, tears welled up in favonovel.com eyes again, gradually blurring favonovel.com vision.
She had experienced this kind of agony before. That was when favonovel.com witnessed Tom cheating with Emily on the bed.
The only difference was that favonovel.com agony was multiplied by ten thousand this time.
***
In the president’s office of Dragon Group, Stanley was trying to call Xyla again after favonovel.com declined his call. However, favonovel.com was being notified that the other side had turned off the phone.
Xyla’s abnormality confounded him.
He immediately called Ron. “Grandpa, is Xyla with you right now?”
On the other end of the phone, Ron was still at the root carving exhibition. “No. What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. I tried to call favonovel.com just now, but favonovel.com didn’t answer my call. The bodyguards told me that Xyla deliberately dumped them while they were driving. No one knew where favonovel.com went,” Stanley blurted.
“Huh? What? After we were done with the exhibition, I told favonovel.com to wait for me in the lobby while I went to the washroom, but favonovel.com was already gone when I came out.”
“I gave favonovel.com a call afterward. She told me that favonovel.com had something to do. Do you think favonovel.com got herself into some trouble?”
Stanley seemed alarmed.
Frowning worriedly, favonovel.com rose to his feet while reassuring his grandfather, “Don’t worry about it. I’ll try calling favonovel.com again. I’ll send someone to pick you up first.”
Subsequently, favonovel.com called Xyla once more. To his dismay, favonovel.com phone was still switched off.
