Chapter 452
“ording to the news source, the girl Stanley Batton dated is named Catherine Batton. Despite
sharing the samest name, they are not siblings.
“Catherine is the only child in her family and is currently studying abroad. The editor guesses that
X Quest only said Catherine is Stanley’s sister because X is trying to protect her reputation.”
Long lines of text came into sight right away.
Below the text was information rted to Catherine Batton.
X’s frown deepened as she calmly looked at Stanely’s face.
She didn’t believe a single word written in the news article.
In fact, she felt even more certain that somebody was trying to stir things up behind the scene.
“Someone said she isn’t your biological sister,” X said.
“Do you believe that?” Stanley asked calmly as he looked at her.
X shook her head. “Of course not. You have no reason to lie to me,” she said.
Stanley smiled faintly. “Somebody must have done a background check on her.”
“You don’t have to exin. I understand everything. Your profession is unique. You must have a lot
of enemies. Hence, to protect your sister, you needed to create a fake identity for her,” X said.
People who worked in this field definitely needed to protect their families.
Stanley looked deeply at X before gently ruffling her hair.
X immediately felt something like an intense electric current shooting through her body from the
top of her head. Her body began to feel hot all over.
It felt as if her heart was about to stop beating.
Sensing the slight change in X’s facial expression, Stanley’s smile widened. “Don’t worry. I’ll sort
everything out.”
X believed everything he said because he always fulfilled his promises.
“I think it was a little inconsiderate of me to make everything public previously. To protect her, you
have created a fake identity for her so that she wouldn’t be tied to you in the public eye. Isn’t that
so?” X asked carefully.
“Don’t worry about it. Not many people have seen how I really looked like. I only did that out of
precaution,” Stanley exined before ruffling her hair gently once more. He then turned around and
walked into the kitchen.
X smiled as she watched him leave. After a long while, it was apparent that she was blushing.
Only after he disappeared did she sit down on the couch with a pleased smile on her face.
Her heart continued to throb while a sense of guilt returned.
X looked very much like a little girl.
As soon as Georgie Clementine came downstairs, she saw X blushing.
Hearing the sounds from the kitchen, Georgie could guess why that was the case.
Georgie sighed in frustration and quickly stepped forward. Although she didn’t want to say anything
at first, she couldn’t help herself. “Look at yourself. Have you lost your self-control? President X,
have you thought about what’s hidden underneath that shiny exterior of his? Do you have any idea
how many people he killed in his field of work? Perhaps he has alreadymitted half of all
possible crimes,” Georgie said while trying to keep her voice down.
“I’ve thought about all of this. At first, I tried to hold myself back because of this and the marriage
certificate. I thought I could remain calm andposed around him. But Georgie, I’m beginning to
realize that some things can’t be controlled,” X said and lowered her gaze.
“I’ve made up my mind. I’m going to tell Master the truth,” she added.
Georgie didn’t say anything else. Instead, she let out a long, frustrated sigh again.

When Georgie thought about what X would face in the future, she couldn’t stay as calm as X.
What was this feeling like?
It was like knowing someone was ying with fire and yet being unable to stop them.
Georgie could only watch as X charged ahead.
She didn’t want to interfere too much. Since X had already made up her mind, Georgie couldn’t
stop her.
