Stanley Batton was the one who asked Xyla Quest to come over. Besides, Xyla didn't have the intentions those people had said. Hence, it was understandable for her to feel offended by what they said. However, she didn't show any emotion on the surface. She took her phone out and proceeded to call Stanley instead.

Instantaneously, the two bodyguards rolled their eyes in annoyance.

Right after that, one of them began to speak. "Pretending to call our CEO again. Are you thinking of sneaking into the building when we're not paying attention? We've seen far too many like you, lady. Stop playing tricks."

"Exactly. Our CEO doesn't randomly meet girls for no reason," the other bodyguard chipped in.

Everyone who passed by couldn't resist rolling their eyes at Xyla. They were making it seem as if Xyla was a girl who was here to seduce their CEO.

Xyla ignored them and continued to look for Stanley's number on her phone.

Just as she was about to press the dial button, she saw Stanley walking out of the building.

He was wearing a white shirt and black pants. The sight of him walking out of a high-class building like that made him seem supremely noble.

He was like a one-of-a-kind luxury item in the world that most people wouldn't even get to see.

As soon as he walked out, everyone around fixed their eyes on him as if he was an expensive piece of jewelry, shining brighter than everyone else.

In that moment, the world seemed to fade into the background.

Meanwhile, Xyla could see nothing but the brightness radiating from him.

When the female employees saw him, they nodded and greeted him politely while they continued to look at him dreamily.

None of them could take their eyes off Stanley.

Someone began whispering to another person behind Xyla. "I think we'll be able to witness our CEO chasing a b*tch away once again."

"Yeah, yeah... Haha. It's going to be fun to watch."

"Our CEO always treats b*tches the same way. Normally, he would only say two words, get lost."

Although their voices were soft, Xyla could hear them clearly. She felt terrible on the inside.

But she couldn't be bothered to bicker with them.

Once Stanley walked out of the building, he fixed his eyes on Xyla's face.

After that, he naturally stopped in front of her and looked at her affectionately. "I didn't think you'd arrive so soon."

"Did you come down to wait for me on purpose?" Xyla asked.

"Yeah," Stanley said before lifting his hand and ruffling Xyla's hair as if nobody around was looking.

When everyone saw this scene, they were dumbfounded, and all of them felt embarrassed.

"Let's go..." Stanley reached for Xyla's hand and brought her into the office building.

"Did you hear that? Our CEO came down just to fetch her. Oh my God."

"Why do I replace this woman so familiar? I couldn't see her face clearly because she's wearing a mask. I think she looks a lot like Xyla Quest..."

"Come to think of it, the pictures I saw of Xyla Quest's husband were all taken from the side. Back then, I thought the man looked very much like our CEO. Most importantly, the man even has the same name as our CEO. But I didn't dare think about it."

"No way. Xyla Quest's husband seems to be a Chinese medicine practitioner, but our CEO isn't..."

"I think that woman looks a lot like Xyla Quest too. I've seen her face on Weibo a lot. However, I couldn't recognize her just now because she was wearing a mask..."

"From the looks of things, if that woman is Xyla Quest, that meant our CEO must be her husband. Otherwise, why would she cheat openly? Do you think Xyla Quest is dumb?"

"I'm going to check and see if that really was Xyla Quest. Ahhh... I'm so jealous. That divine man has been snatched by another woman just like that. I feel heartbroken." Xyla and Stanley were both unable to hear what these people said out there.

While everyone watched on, Stanley held Xyla's hand and walked into his personal elevator. The two of them then arrived at the CEO's office on the top floor.

Stanley's office was huge. In fact, it was two times bigger than her father's office, and it had a great view.

From here, it seemed as if one was looking out at the entire world.

It felt as if everything else was beneath their feet.
