Chapter 13


    “Ughh! I’m so mad!” Emily Quest grabbed a pillow next to her and hurled it to the ground.


    After X Quest got changed upstairs, she put on some light make-up before getting into her car


    and driving to X Entertainment.


    X Entertainment’s office was located in the most developed area in the city center of Antis.


    From the outside, the tall building appeared both fashionable and artistic.


    Since the walls were made fully of ss, it was nearly transparent from the inside out.


    With a total of sixteen floors, there were twelve floors above the ground and four floors under.


    All of X Entertainment’s artists and trainees had their practices and recordings done in this building.


    After X got out of her car, she quickly entered the tall building.


    Dressed in a light blue professional outfit, coupled with a white T-shirt and white heels, she seemed


    both dainty and experienced.


    Using her personal elevator, X rode to the president’s office directly.


    As soon as she sat down, Georgie Clementine knocked on her door with a massive pile of


    documents.


    Georgie ced the documents on her table. “Over the past two days, ourpany has interviewed


    two hundred trainee candidates. Among these candidates, I have selected fifty of them. Please


    have a look and get these signed if you are fine with them…”


    “By the looks of how things are developing, I estimate that we will be able to increase our


    headcount by a few hundred people once the recruitment period is up next month…” Georgie


    reported.


    “Alright. I’ll look at theseter,” X said.


    “President X, I bet your little sister was tortured by Uncle today. Isn’t that so?” Georgie asked


    curiously before pulling a chair out and sitting in front of X.


    “Yeah…” X answered. “It’s just as we predicted.”


    “You really do know Emily well. You said that she would show off that I had agreed to sign the


    contract with her. Indeed, she did.”


    “With a top-notch celebrity like Josh Batton, as long as one person found out about news like that,


    and told the world about it, it would inevitably be the most popr topic on the inte.”


    Georgie was smiling from ear to ear as she found this incident incredibly hrious.


    X chuckled. “You did a good job cooperating with me. Georgie, I’ve told you many times before


    that you can call me X when there’s only the two of us.”


    X and Georgie were ssmates back in Summend University. Since they were able to get


    along with each other, they soon became the best of friends.


    A year ago, when X mentioned that she was going to establish X Entertainment, Georgie took


    the first step to return to the country and set up thepany without hesitation.


    Moreover, Georgie did everything ording to X’s orders behind the scenes.


    Once X returned, Georgie handed a fully developed and ever-growing entertainmentpany


    over to her.


    To X, Georgie was her best friend and also her closestrade.


    “Names get changed around all the time. I’ve gotten used to calling you President X…” Georgie


    said.


    “Alright then.”


    “President X, what kind of a person do you think your husband is?”


    X shook her head. She knew nothing about him.


    N?velDrama.Org ? 2024.


    There was probably no one else in the world who would ept a marriage certificate without even


    being at the registrar’s office physically.


    Nobody would even believe her if she told them everything about her husband.


    Three years ago, on the night X was close to dying, she was rescued by the Quest family’s


    personal doctor, Adam Shaw.


    On that fateful night, Adam was driving by and coincidentally discovered X buried under the


    snow. He had immediately taken her to the hospital.


    When she woke up, Adam told her that his professor in America’s medical institution found her an


    expert who could heal her sickness.


    Moreover, he told her that the man was a Chinese doctor who lived permanently in Kingsman in


    America. The locals referred to him as a god among doctors. However, he was no longer epting


    patients.


    Therefore, she asked Adam for the doctor’s address and rushed overnight to Kingstown in America.


    However, the doctor refused to see her.


    To convince him to treat her, X had knelt in front of his vi for three days and three nights.


    Only when she was about to pass out did the mane out and took her into the vi.


    After checking her pulse and getting her blood checked, the doctor agreed to treat her. However, in


    return, she must ept his request to get married to his grandson. Moreover, they were not allowed


    to get divorced within three years. Throughout that period, she was also not allowed to cheat on


    him.


    To recover her beauty, X agreed without even considering it.


    After that, X continued to stay with the doctor. While getting her treatment, she continued to


    study.


    After a year, positive results began to show from her treatment. The doctor then asked for her


    personal identity card and returned it to herter that evening with a photo-less marriage certificate.


    To avoid a divorce between them, he kept the marriage certificate away after showing it to her


    momentarily.


    X could only recall that her husband’s name was Stanley Batton.


    As for his line of work or his appearances, X had not a single clue.


    Later, the doctor expressed his intention to teach her everything he knew in the medical field.


    Therefore, X became his disciple in medical studies.


    Throughout that period, she never had any interaction with her husband.


    Although they were married on paper, X lived just like any other singledy.


    However, X was quite pleased by theck of attention from her husband. She could do whatever


    she wanted every day and silently wait for time to pass until they could get a divorce.


    “Do you think your husband is very ugly? Is that why he refuses to see you?


    “Or could he be a person with a physical disability? Or is he in aa?


    “Perhaps he could be terminally ill. Did that man make you two get married to bring blessings into


    the family?” Georgie asked jokingly.


    “I don’t know. Anyway, I can get a divorce in a year. I’ll do it when the timees,” X said


    nonchntly.


    “Hmm. That’s true. Oh, yeah, make sure you are free tonight,” Georgie suddenly became serious.


    “Why is that?” X asked curiously.


    “I discovered a potential talent in Unconscious Bar. I’m nning to take you there to check him out.


    “The man looks very handsome. He looks like a bad boy with a unique charisma. I’ve checked to


    make sure he isn’t signed to any otherpany now,” Georgie added.


    “Okay…”


    ***


    Late in the night, a DJ was sting upbeat music which vibrated deeply in everyone’s hearts.


    There was a scent of smoke and alcohol in the air. Meanwhile, men and women danced wildly


    along to the beat of the music.


    After X and Georgie entered the bar, they looked for seats in the VIP section and sat down


    somewhere closest to the stage.


    Since they were in a hurry, neither of them had changed their clothes. Even so, they seemed to


    outshine everyone else in the bar.


    The bright lights in the bar illuminated their faces, making them stand out even more.


    Meanwhile, a group of men and women were making a lot of noise at the table next to theirs.


    X subconsciously nced over at them.


    At that moment, X could feel her heart stop beating.


    It was because her gazended on the man whom she had a one-nightstand with. He was seated in


    the center of the wild crowd.


    Right then, he was calmly drinking a light blue cocktail with a cold expression on his face.


    An extremely beautifuldy apanied every man at the table except for him.


    Right then, he subconsciously looked her way and caused her to shiver.
