Chapter 477


    After sitting down, X Quest took the initiative to ce food on Ron Batton’s te.


    Ron ate a mouthful of rice before he spoke. “I’ll arrange for you two to meet in one week. Once the


    time has been decided, I’ll reach out to you.”


    “Okay,” X said as she gently bit on her chopsticks with an apologetic look on her face.


    “X, stay with me for a week if you can. I’ll nurse you back to health,” Ron said.


    X shook her head. “I can’t, Grandpa. There’s still a lot of work left back in the country.”


    Ron chuckled. “Very well. I shan’t force you then. Later, I’ll prepare some herbs for you to bring


    home. You can consume them on your own once you get back.”


    “Thank you, Grandpa.”

    Back in the room, Stanley Batton sent a message to X.


    “I think I’ll only be able to return to the country tomorrow afternoon due to a sudden dy,” Stanley


    wrote.


    “Okay. I’ll look after myself,” X replied.


    “Alright.”


    Stanley stopped sending her any texts after that.


    X did the same and cleaned herself up before going to bed.


    The next morning, she bid farewell to her master and got onto a return flight to her home country.


    By the time her flightnded, it was already two o’clock in the afternoon.


    As soon as X walked out of the arrival hall, she saw Georgie Clementine running in her direction.


    Georgie grabbed her luggage right away and looked at her worriedly. “How did it go? How is your


    body feeling? And, what about your master…”


    By the end of her sentence, Georgie was looking at X curiously.

    X was still feeling a little upset at herself over this matter. She let out a long, helpless sigh. “My


    master has agreed. He said he would arrange for my husband and me to meet so that we could talk


    things out.”


    “Really? Did he actually agree?” Georgie seemed surprised.


    “Yeah…” X nodded.


    Georgie didn’t press on further. She held X’s hand and carefully led her outside.


    X didn’t mention anything else, either.


    After they entered the house, Stanley pushed the door open from behind and came in before they


    even changed into house slippers.


    Seeing the luggage in Georgie’s hands and X’s worn-out appearance, Stanley frowned slightly.


    “Where did you two go? Didn’t you say you were going to rest in a quiet ce? You’re not supposed


    to be running around,” Stanley said.


    “I went to do something very important,” X said and chuckled.


    ‘Once this is over and done with, I will be able to follow my heart and be with you.’ X thought to


    herself.


    The thought itself gave X mixed feelings.


    “What is it?” He asked.


    “You’ll find out in the future.” X didn’t give him a clear answer. Instead, she changed into her


    slippers and walked over to the couch before sitting down.


    Stanley didn’t ask any further. He, too, changed into his slippers before walking over and sitting


    down next to her. “How are you feeling?”


    “Hmm…” X nodded.


    After that, she looked up at his face and examined it carefully.


    This man was the most handsome person she had ever met.


    Her heart raced just from looking at him like this.


    “Since Five Batton is back, I’ll leave first…” Georgie said.


    Before X could say anything, Georgie had made her way out of the house.


    X and Stanley were the only two people left in their big world.
