Chapter 108


    The dining table was covered with a snow-white silk cloth. Several stalks of white roses were


    disyed in the center of the table.


    Pure white tassels hung at the ends of the tablecloth, showing luxury in simplicity.


    Under the illumination of the magnificent chandelier, everything seemed perfect. The strong


    fragrance of roses in the air calmed one’s spirits.


    After cing their orders, both individuals removed their coats and hung them at the back of their


    chairs, leaving only their shirts.


    Both were dressed in white. They felt more like a couple now.


    “Have you memorized what I taught you yesterday? Have you forgotten them?” X initiated the


    conversation.


    “Yeah,” he replied faintly, toying with a ck mirror finish lighter in one hand.


    His fingers were extremely nimble. No matter how he toyed with it, the lighter never fell.

    Since he had exceptionally slender and charming fingers, his ying with the lighter attracted more


    attention. It was a seemingly ordinary lighter, but it seemed more expensive than its worth when he


    toyed it in his hand.


    For a brief moment, X was lost in a daze as she watched.


    He looked calmly at her before snapping his fingers at her. “What are you thinking about?”


    Then, X regained her senses. She looked at his incredibly charming face and simply changed


    the subject. “I’ll now brief you on my family’s situation. My father is a very healthy man, but he has


    gastroenteritis regted by taking medicine all year long.


    “My stepmother has a cold constitution like me, but her condition is even more severe. She, too, is


    regting it by taking medicine constantly.


    “Although I know you’ll be able to tell, I still wanted to brief you on it. I assume that Emily would quiz


    you on them to see if you’re lying,” X added.


    “Okay.”


    “As for Tom Sullivan, who will soon marry Emily, he doesn’t have any illness and has always been in


    great health.


    “Tom’s mother and sister are healthy as well. Besides his legs being disabled, his older brother,


    Julian Sullivan, doesn’t have any other illness. His father has diabetes,” X continued to brief him


    seriously.


    “Oh.”


    “Did you remember them all?”


    “Yeah.”


    Vrrt, vrrt, vrrt. As they talked, his phone suddenly vibrated. It was a WeChat message from Zack.


    “Fifth Master, I’ve purchased the house for you and had it cleaned and decorated ording to your


    instructions. Shall I pass you the keys tomorrow?”


    Stanley did not reply but ced the phone faced-down as he looked at her again.


    “Oh, right. I forgot to bring your clothes. Are you free tomorrow night? If you are, I’ll return it to you


    when we meet.”


    “Sure.”


    “Let’s finish up early today. The mall will be closing at ten, so let’s head over to the mall around


    nine.” X’s voice was tender as usual.


    “What for?” He raised an eyebrow, staring curiously at X’s face.


    “I want to buy you a suit to wear at her wedding,” answered X.


    “Oh.”


    Vrrt, vrrt. His phone vibrated again.


    It was a WeChat message from Sharon. ‘I saw an amazingly handsome male suit at Cosmos


    International. Come over and try it out! And keep mepany while you’re at it. I’m so bored by


    myself QAQ.’


    Stanley typed a reply without hesitation. ‘I’m not free.’


    ‘Why? You’re busy with work again, aren’t you? Are you a workaholic?’


    ‘Keeping your daughter-inwpany.’ After that, Stanley nced casually at X.


    X had her head lowered, holding her phone while shemunicated with Georgie on X


    Entertainment matters. She looked serious.
