Chapter 494


    When the door flung open, George Clementine bore an extremely worried face as her hands


    grasped X Quest’s shoulder. “President X, what’s wrong with you?”


    “I’ll sleep over at your house tonight.” X said with a deep, depressed sigh.


    She did not want to go back to their house tonight.


    Georgie realized that she must have gotten herself into a difficult orplicated situation from the


    expression on her face. Immediately, she caught up with X and pulled her to the sofa, sitting


    down together with her. “What’s the matter? Did you have a fight with Five Batton?”

    Upon hearing the name ‘Five Batton’, X could not help but sneer bitterly. “Five Batton? Pfft… Just


    call him Stanley Batton from now on.”


    The initial worry on Georgie’s face was reced by shock. “What do you mean?”


    “He’s Stanley Batton… My husband.”


    Georgie was struck dumb by her words, her eyes out on stalks as she gaped at X’s face. “What?


    He’s your mysterious husband that you never met? Stanley Batton? Why did he hide it from you if


    he’s that man himself?”


    Another bitter smile was X’s response. She leaned against the sofa andmented, “How do I


    know? He must have his intention.”


    Engulfed by exhaustion, she plopped herself down on the sofa.


    “Judging by his reactions before and after the encounter, I think Master did not tell him that I was


    the one who he was going to meet tonight.” X spoke with a t, weary tone, her mind was still in


    a mess.


    “I couldn’t stop thinking about it when I was on my way here. I don’t think that Master was aware


    that the two of us had been seeing each other for quite a long time. He must have nned our


    meeting today without any knowledge about it. He wouldn’t have arranged us to meet in such a way


    if he knew what his grandson had done to me.” X forced herself to gather her thoughts.


    No matter how hard she thought about the matter, this seemed to be the only possibility.


    “As for Stanley, he should have known I’m his wife since the first time we met but he acted like he


    did not know all the time. What’s his reason then? Why does he hide it from his family?”


    “And me? What’s his intention for putting on such a show? He’s such a liar. I suspect that he’s


    actually not a gangster as well, it’s just a disguise for his real identity.”


    “Everything he presents to me is fake. Is there some ulterior motive behind everything he did?” The


    frustration and perplexity in her heart were only amplified with each word she spoke.


    After listening carefully to the ins and outs of the incident and X’s spection, rage swelled within


    Georgie’s heart. She was as irritated as X. While she was flicking the side of her nails, she began


    to analyze X''s situation in earnest, from the perspective of a bystander.


    However, she failed to find a reasonable excuse for Stanley in the end.


    It seemed that he did everything with an intention, just like what X had guessed.


    He would have told X that he was Stanley Batton himself if he was not guilty.


    To be frank, Georgie believed that he bore no malice toward X from the way he treated her all


    this while. Nevertheless, it would be a different story if he was a particrly good actor, pretending


    to care for her.


    From what X had told her, Stanley’s acting skills were unexpectedly outstanding.


    “Can he be coveting something on you?” Georgie’s mind raced frantically for an answer before


    coming to this conclusion.


    “Like what? Quest Property Group? Or X Entertainment? If that’s the case, he could have told me


    that he was my husband in the first ce and made me fall in love with him. Wouldn’t that be much


    easier?” hissed X.


    Georgie pondered her reasoning for a few seconds and nodded. “Well, you’ve got a point there. But


    what else can it be? If he’s not after these?”


    “President X, maybe Stanley is not asplicated as we think. He’s simply interested in you


    after that night, that’s all. Do you think this is possible?”


    “He wants to get close to you and finds out whether you’re his Mrs.Right. If both of you get along


    well, he’ll confess his real identity to you. Conversely, he’s going to divorce you after the three-


    years-marriage if he loses interest in you.”


    Georgie bore a serious expression on her face as she continued to analyze the situation.


    With all sorts of suspicions and doubts clogging her heart, X was too worn out to investigate the


    matter anymore. Everything that happened at the private room came as a shock to her, making her


    head extremely dizzy and dreadful.
