Stanley Batton slowly took two white handkerchiefs out of his pocket.

After handing one over to Sharon Lindt, he used the other to wipe the sweat off Xyla Quest's forehead gently and neck. He was very gentle when he did this.

"I'll do it myself..." Xyla held Stanley's hand and said.

"Allow me." Stanley looked gently at Xyla and continued to wipe her sweat away.

The woman who tried to seduce Stanley, as well as her friends, witnessed all of this.

They were greatly stunned by Stanley's drastic change in attitude.

Meanwhile, they were also very much impressed with Xyla's good looks.

Now, the woman who tried to seduce Stanley knew why she failed.

Xyla was a real beauty, but what about her...? Was she just a wildflower in the corner that would never be noticed?

"I didn't think he could be so gentle."

"That woman is so pretty... It explains why her husband wouldn't cheat on her."

"She looks a little familiar."

"That man treats everyone coldly except for his wife, whom he also is very protective of. How lucky could this woman get?" Friends of the woman who tried to seduce Stanley looked at Xyla and Stanley enviously while they discussed among themselves. The woman didn't say anything. Her eyes were filled with jealousy.

***

By one o'clock in the morning, Xyla, Stanley, and Sharon finally left the bar.

The couple sent Sharon home before returning to their own house.

As soon as they arrived, Xyla sat exhaustedly on the couch.

The couch was so soft that it sank deeply where she sat down.

Instantly, the softness made Xyla feel a great sense of relief from her exhaustion.

After kicking her shoes off, she laid down on the couch.

"I'm so tired..." She said.

Xyla had no idea that her mother-in-law would have such great stamina.

"Honey... I'd like to dip my feet in some warm water to relax a little... Do you want to as well?" Xyla asked. "Sure... I'll get the water ready for you." Stanley stood up and walked to the bathroom.

Meanwhile, Xyla took her phone out and went on Weibo.

She was hoping that the earlier gossip between herself and Zack Cassidy would have died down by now. After all, she had already explained everything clearly.

However, when she opened the list of trending topics, she realized she had been too hopeful.......

Xyla was able to find her name amongst the numerous popular topics about Josh Batton and Shawn Gilbert.

Right then, the articles about her ranked on the fifth, the sixth, and the seventh spot on the list of trending topics. Number five, '#Xyla Quest lies# Shocking'.

Number six, 'Flowers all over the city for Xyla Quest# Shocking'.

Number seven, '#Xyla Quest cheats# Shocking'.

Xyla hadn't expected any of these three topics to come up.

Nobody should have known that the flowers decorated all over the city were for her. How did it get exposed? Also...

Xyla had clearly explained everything behind the allegations that she cheated. Why was the topic still on the list?

Xyla first tapped on the link that mentioned she lied.

Within the topic, many marketing accounts claimed that she was lying. In fact, they even said that employees in Dragon Group revealed Xyla's frequent visits to the company. They contended that Zack and Xyla's relationship was unusual. In fact, Xyla was even rumored to have brought Zack home and kissed him in front of her husband.
