Chapter 518


    The call was made by Stanley Batton.


    “Have you woken up yet?” Stanley asked with a loving and gentle tone.


    On the other end of the phone, Stanley was currently holding his phone and talking to her while


    heading to the elevator, tenderness crept all over his eyes as well as his brows.


    He was dressed in a snow white dress shirt with a pair of ck trousers. The golden ratio of his


    body was outlined most vividly by the outfit, and his long legs had garnered a lot of attention from


    the crowd.

    The first three buttons of his shirt were unfastened, causing the red marks on his neck exceptionally


    obvious and clearly visible.


    When the two little girls at the front desk, as well as the workers who passed by him saw his


    appearance, their face was as horrified as they just saw a ghost.


    However, Stanley was like the only man on the ind. Without paying any heed to the whispering


    passerby, he waited for X to speak patiently.


    “Yeah, I just woke up,” answered X.


    “I just arrived at the office and I won’t be back during the day. I’ll have dinner with youter at night.”


    The gentleness in his tone did not falter.


    “Okay.”


    “What do you want to eat for dinner? I’ll make it for you.”


    “I have a craving for hotpot.”


    “Sure. I’ll get the ingredients at night and we’ll have hotpot at home.”


    “Well, I want to eat fried chicken too.”


    “I’ll cook it for you.”


    “And milk tea.”


    “Okay, I’ll make that for you too.”


    As he spoke, he strode into the elevator.


    After the elevator doors closed, everyone in the entire hall started gabbling and jabbering right


    away.


    “Did the sun just rise in the west today? Why is the cold-faced-King-of-Hell talking to someone so


    gently over the phone?”


    “This is definitely the first time I’ve seen our President smile. Oh my Goddddd! He’s so stunning,


    isn’t he?”


    “Our President is already super handsome even if he doesn’t smile!”


    “That’s not the point! Most importantly, he’s extremely obedient to the person on the other end of the


    phone and he’s going to cook for her!!!”


    “Ahhhhhhhhh… I’m so jealous! I’m so jealous that the girl can give him a hickey!”


    After X hung up the phone, she went to wash up happily.


    Ever since she fell in love with Stanley, her mood seemed to be brighter than the warm weather and


    the sun outside of the window.


    After putting on gorgeous makeup, she changed her pajamas into a light pink silk nightgown and sat


    on the bed, starting to work.


    Since she was in a good mood, she felt like every key on her keyboard was exuding pink bubbles.


    Meanwhile at the Sullivans’ house, Emily Quest went downstairs with a deliberately depressed face


    after she had woken up.


    There was only Bailey Ronson alone downstairs.


    She was currently practicing yoga with music.


    Noticing her presence, Bailey darted a cold nce at Emily while spatting detestably, “What time is


    it now? As the daughter-inw of our family, have you ever thought of waking up early and


    preparing breakfast for us? You’re really something, Emily.”


    Upon hearing that, fury and grief surged up within Emily.


    She was a patient who suffered from major depressive disorder in front of the public. However, her


    mother-inw always pulled a face at her ever since she returned from the hospital. On top of that,


    she wouldin about her not making breakfast every single day.


    Her mother-inw was terribly vicious.


    Though Emily was extremely angry with Bailey, she managed to maintain a serious and calm


    facade on the outside as she continued to walk. Holding back her emotions, she entered the kitchen


    to look for something to eat.
