Chapter 264
Both appearances could destroy cities, but they were of different types. One was so handsome that
he had a strong, pressuring aura, while the other was so handsome that he seemedpletely
harmless. One was apathetic and aloof, the other was warm and pure.
“Why are you here? You got them to bring me over urgently, what for?” Josh was a tad annoyed.
How could Stanley do this? The man forcefully interrupted Josh’s date, ignored everything else, and
simply got someone to drag him out of the restaurant.
“Why did you ignore Zack’s calls?” Stanley took a long draw of his cigarette before slowly breathing
it out. Under the haze of smoke, unreadable emotions surged behind his dark eyes.
“I didn’t turn on my phone during work. I saw the missed calls after work, but because I had more
important business to attend to, I forgot to call him back,” Josh answered honestly.
“Your so-called important business was a date with X Quest?” Stanley asked.
“...Why do you seem to know my exact whereabouts? Did you get someone to follow me? Why?
Did Dad make you do this?” Josh got more irked.
“Don’t you try to start anything. Why would I waste time getting someone to track you?” Stanley
responded faintly. He stubbed out his cigarette and tossed it into the garbage can outside the car
with great precision.
“Start something? What was I trying to start?”
Josh had no idea what his brother was talking about. He had been busy with work recently and
hadn’t done anything at all.
“Could it be because I confessed to X on Weibo? What’s that got to do with you?” Josh looked
confused. “You disapprove of me liking a married woman? X’s husband is practically non-
existent. That man doesn’t treat her well. They’re in an open rtionship and will divorce very
soon,” he blurted out.
Stanley raised a defined eyebrow as his cold gaze fell on Josh’s face. “Did you just confess to her?”
“Yeah, but I got rejected.” Josh let out a long, helpless sigh.
Stanley’s attractive forehead gradually rxed and his expression seemed more at ease.
“I’m not sure if that guy’s eyes are damaged. How could he push aside such a divine beauty? If his
eyes are damaged, I suggest he donate them,” Josh added.
At this, Stanley’s just rxed eyebrows pinched together once more. His expression darkened.
“Say that again…” Stanley looked apathetic.
“I said, I suggest that guy donate his eyes.” Josh did not notice Stanley’s expression at all. “I don’t
even know what he looks like, who he is, and what kind of divine looks he has. How dare he be so
arrogant! I’d really like to take care of him.”
“You can try taking care of me,” Stanley snapped, gritting his teeth.
At this, Josh’s heart immediately fell into his stomach. A thought shed in his mind. “Could X’s
husband possibly be you?” he asked.

Stanley kept quiet. His silence was a sign of agreement.
Josh’s eyes were filled with disbelief. “Is it really that much of a coincidence? She’s that wife of
yours?”
“Stay away from her in the future,” said Stanley. His eyes shed with a stern warning.
“Don’t you dislike her?” Josh asked.
“I don’t like repeating myself twice. Do you hear me, Josh Batton?”
Stanley red sternly at him with a dangerous aura in his eyes, as if he was a leopard protecting
his prey. The atmosphere inside the car became heavy. There was a strong sense of oppression in
Stanley eyes and his aura was on full st, subduing Joshpletely.
“It looks like you like her now,” said Josh, smiling bitterly.
It was as if a pair of hands had suddenly barged into his chest and simply tore his heart away. His
chest was now leftpletely empty. Since Stanley liked her, Josh had to back down. Because
Stanley was his older brother. Even if just letting go of X like this was hard for him, it must be
done.
As Josh had not answered his question, Stanley asked again, “Do you understand?”
The color in Josh’s eyes had faded away. “I… got it… Have you guys met? Does she now know
who you are?”
