Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) -
Chapter 952
Xyla Quest looked at Stanley Batton briefly before subconsciously glancing around. She then rubbed her eyes gently. "Is the meeting over?" she asked.
"Yeah..." Stanley answered softly.
"When did I fall asleep?" Xyla asked.
"You fell asleep not long after dinner..." Stanley said.
"Oh." With that, Xyla naturally wrapped her arms around Stanley's neck. After that, she looked at the bodyguards behind them embarrassedly. "Put me down. I can walk on my own," she said.
"Let me hold you for a while." Stanley had no intention of putting her down. His gaze never left her, and the look in his eyes was full of gentleness.
Xyla didn't say anything further. She let him carry her while she enjoyed the warmth of his embrace.
"Is there anything else you'd like to eat, hmm?" Stanley asked.
"Do you want me to become a pig? I just had dinner, and you're asking me to eat again," Xyla complained softly.
Stanley smiled. "I was just afraid you might be hungry."
"I'm not a pig. Why would I get hungry so easily?" Xyla said.
"Oh, alright. Shall we go home then?" Stanley asked.
"Okay." Xyla immediately nodded.
After that, she naturally rested her head against his chest.
She could feel the warmth of his body through the thin layer of fabric.
At such a distance, Xyla could clearly hear his heart beating forcefully.
Stanley didn't say anything. Instead, he walked faster.

An entourage of black luxury cars soon arrived at a high-class, dreamy-looking area in the center of the city and stopped at building No. 8. After the cars stopped, Xyla looked around once more.
This building had an expansive view of the surrounding, and huge gardens surrounded it. The environment seemed beautiful around it. In the early parts of summer, all sorts of flowers were in full bloom in the garden.
The odd-looking flowers and plants were also pleasant to look at.
When one looked at such a view, one felt very much at ease.
The bodyguards were the first to get out of their cars.
Right after that, they opened the doors for Xyla and Stanley.
The two of them got out of the car at the same time.
As soon as they did so, Stanley quickly walked over to Xyla and picked her up.
Xyla looked at Stanley helplessly as she wrapped her arms around his neck. "Are you going to treat me as if we're joined at the hips?" "Hmm... I'm prepared to be joined at the hips with you all night long," Stanley whispered into her ear before gently nibbling her earlobe.
His warm breath brushed her earlobe and the surrounding area of her neck, instantly causing her heart to feel numb.
Xyla immediately started to blush. Subconsciously, she turned to look at the people behind them.
Although Stanley wasn't loud, they could all hear him.
When her eyes met with theirs, they all coughed awkwardly before looking down and pretending as if nothing happened. They continued to walk behind Xyla and Stanley. Xyla knew from their reaction that they must have heard what Stanley said.
She began to feel increasingly embarrassed.
Xyla rolled her eyes at Stanley. "Stanley, do you know what silence means?"
"I don't," he replied.
"L
." Xyla rolled her eyes at him again before lowering her head in embarrassment.
Stanley's unit was on the sixteenth floor.
By design, a single unit occupied the entire floor in this building.
Inside the unit was a huge, baroque-style foyer.
After Stanley carried Xyla inside, Zack and the rest were smart enough to leave.
Without anybody around, Stanley became even more unrestrained.
He put Xyla down on the couch before pressing his body against hers. He then carefully studied her face with his palms on both sides of her cheeks.
