"I guess they were pleasantly surprised," Alex said thoughtfully. "Anyway, everyone's happy about it."

"Yes, they are. Is there anything you'd like to say to Xyla and your fans?" the female host questioned further.

He instantly turned his somber-looking face at Xyla Quest. "I won't let you down, Boss. I'll bring all the trophies to you."

On the livestream channel-

"Stanley: Just pretend I'm dead."

"I honestly feel that Alex has a crush on Xyla. I don't think I'm mistaken."

"The look in his eyes is so mesmerizing. They'd be a lovely couple!"

"Calm down, everyone. Xyla is older than Alex. How could that work out? He isn't the type to like older women."

"Alex wouldn't dare set his eyes on Stanley's wife. Are you all mad?"

Xyla flashed a smile upon hearing his words, raising both thumbs at him when he turned to look at her once more.

Their entire exchange was captured and displayed on the large screen by the broadcasting director.

Stanley Batton observed everything next to her, appearing as his cold and indifferent self this time.

With his departure, the competition officially ended.

Xyla slowly stood up and looked at her husband. "We should head home."

Stanley nodded in agreement, so he led the way outside with Xyla while being escorted by bodyguards.

Numerous people wanted to

approach them for selfies, but they were surrounded by dozens of bodyguards. The crowd obediently parted as they approached the exit as if they were far too dignified compared to everyone else.

They managed to depart without much hassle while everyone watched.

At the same time, Josh Batton and Annabeth Cates held each other's hands and hurried through the backdoor with ease during the distraction.

Surprisingly, nobody recognized them, making Josh and Annabeth both sigh in relief as they gradually slowed down.

After exiting, they got into his brother's black Rolls-Royce limousine to wait for the other couple.
