Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2182

Xyla Quest picked up her landline to inform her assistant she was ready for a meeting in her office she had arranged with a few top executives the day before.

Meanwhile, Stanley Batton sat nearby and played Honor of Kings on his phone with utmost concentration.

His silhouette cut an imposing noble figure, looking every bit like an e-Sports professional. He even played like one, defeating every opponent that went against him in the game. For an experienced League of Legends player, Honor of Kings was even easier to play. He certainly seemed to be in his element while he played.

Ten minutes later, top-level executives from each department entered Xyla's office in an orderly fashion.

They seemed taken aback to see Stanley as he wasn't expected to be in her office.

His presence seemed to fluster the female executives as they seemed unable to tear their eyes away.

It was hard for anyone not to notice him with his charismatic aura and appearance, drawing envious looks toward Xyla.

Once everyone pulled up a chair to surround Xyla, she announced to commence the meeting, focusing on the list of agendas for the day.

The female executives seemed distracted as they would each steal glances at Stanley throughout the meeting.

Normally, these women would not look forward to having meetings, but they wouldn't mind being in this meeting forever if they could feast their eyes on him. It was Stanley himself!

His wife observed their furtive looks but held back her tongue since nobody stepped out of line.

She turned a blind eye and proceeded with the meeting while her husband ignored everyone else and continued his game.

After a while, he grew restless, so he

leaned Jazily

lly against the a

toward his wife, rest and

her

expression.

She gave off an impression of a capable businesswoman as she made sound professional comments during her meeting.

Stanley subconsciously smiled in approval seeing her this way.

Indeed, Xyla was the woman he fell in love with.

Meanwhile, she was so focused on work that she failed to take notice of his scrutiny as he continued to stare at her.

The other women in the room felt

incredibly envious when they

noticed, wishing he would stare.net

them that way, too, but they knew they didn't deserve his attention.

The meeting finally ended after three hours, and everyone cleared out of the room, some more reluctantly than the others.

The office became peaceful again.

Xyla started feeling uncomfortable

around her waist and neck after sitting for too long, so she retrieved a massager from a drawer and used it to ease the aches.

She caught Stanley staring at her with a deep and soft gaze when she looked up.

The affection in his eyes was enough to melt everything away.

At that moment, she no longer felt exhausted.
