Chapter 501


    X Quest struggled to get up, but Stanley Batton forcefully pressed her down onto hisp. “Be


    good… Wait for me, hmm?”


    Now, X suddenly felt awkward and embarrassed as her face turned red.


    His embrace was making her heart beat so fast she felt as if it would soon leap out of her chest.


    The gazes of people in theputer screen made her feel even more nervous.


    “You’re in a meeting. Can’t you be more serious?” X bemoaned.


    “How am I not being serious?” Stanley retorted with a serious look in his face before turning to face


    the people in hisputer screen. “Let’s end the meeting for today.”


    People in the meeting room looked at one another.


    Stanley turned off hisptop right away before unplugging his earphones. “Let’s go out and eat,” he


    said as he looked at X.


    X quickly got up from hisp. “I’ve already made dinner.”


    “Who said you could cook?” Stanley asked.


    “My body is almost fully recovered. Why can’t I cook?” X said.


    “Even if it’s almost fully recovered, you still aren’t allowed to cook,” he said.


    X was speechless.


    “Come on, let’s go down and eat,” Stanley said as he casually reached for her hand and walked


    downstairs with her.


    Meanwhile, the high-level executives in Dragon Group’s upper management meeting room were in


    a state of uproar.


    “We’re not even done with the meeting yet. How can our CEO do this?”


    “He was never like this…”


    “He’s head over heels in love, and he no longer takes his work seriously…”


    ***


    After walking into the dining room, X and Stanley sat down from across each other at the dining


    table.


    When Stanley saw the dishes X made, he smiled without realizing it. “Not bad…”


    “Eat more in that case,” she said.


    “Oh right. Come home with me tonight,” Stanley said.


    “Home?” X seemed dubious.


    “Yeah. My mother has already met you. You still need to officially meet my father, right?” Stanley


    added.


    “Okay. I have something to bring for Aunty Lindt anyway…” X said.


    “Aunty?” Stanley looked up at X.


    “Erm… Mother.”


    “Do you mean the antique items you bought off the auction?” Stanley asked.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    “Yeah.” X had been wanting to deliver those items to Sharon Lindt, but every time she offered to


    do so, Sharon would say she wasn’t in Antis.


    In the end, these items were still with X.


    Today, the opportunity had presented itself.


    “Those are gifts from her to you,” Stanley said.


    “Gifts for me?” X seemed shocked.


    How could X ept such expensive gifts?


    “Why else has she been refusing you all this time?” Stanley said.


    “Does that mean she did it on purpose?” X was dumbfounded by how Stanley and his mother


    would do anything to give her things.


    “Why else?” He said calmly before grabbing some vegetables with his chopsticks and cing them


    on her te.


    X felt truly shocked…


    She was shocked by the extreme measure her mother-inw had taken to give her gifts.


    Sharon sure knew how to get her own way.


    “They’re too expensive. I can’t keep them…” X said.


    “Those are gifts from your mother-inw. You must keep them. Otherwise, she’ll be mad,” Stanley


    said.


    “I really do feel embarrassed,” X said.
