Chapter 614
“Yes. He’s the most powerful gangster in Country Y. He’s involved in both legal and illegal business,
viting countless criminalws of Country Y. He’ll do anything to achieve his goal,” Stanley Batton
said.
X Quest was not surprised by his answer. She had already guessed it, more or less.
No wonder he was so arrogant.
Following that statement, Stanley carried her carefully in his arms and hopped into the helicopter.
The rest followed behind him one after another.
Zack Cassidy was in charge of flying the helicopter. After everyone had settled down, Zack pulled
the controller, and the helicopter gradually ascended.
“How did you get him to let you go?” Questions were swimming in Stanley’s mind.
X recounted the ins and outs of the whole incident to him.
After listening to her exnation, Stanley mumbled, “I didn’t know there’s such a story behind
him…”
“Yeah… I’m very lucky indeed. Otherwise…”
He could feel his scalp prickle, hearing her stutter.
Immediately, he stretched out his long arm and pulled her close to his chest. “I’m sorry. I failed to
protect you.”
X melted in his warm embrace. She could no longer feel the exhaustion that was consuming her
the entire night.
At this moment, she was relieved to be back in his embrace.
She could feel how scared and guilty this man was. She always understood what he was thinking.
“It isn’t your fault.” X shook her head.
However, Stanley hugged X even tighter. He did not dare to think about the consequences that
might have happened to his beloved wife at all.
“I’m being serious. You came here fast enough. When did you realize that something had happened
to me?” X slid her arms around his waist and asked softly.
“You weren’t home for over an hour after you called me. When I gave you another call, your phone
was already switched off.
“I sensed something wrong, so I drove to Quest Property Group. When I got there, two security
guards were lying unconsciously in the lobby, and your phone was there too.
“I knew something bad must have happened to you. I quickly ordered someone to check the
surveince cameras around the building, but I couldn’t find anything…” Stanley exined to X
every single detail in earnest.
“And then?” X was all ears.
“Then, I suspected that Ada was seeking revenge. I had someone locate Ada’s phone, and we
found out that she was in the middle of the sea. I was more certain of my spection because of
that, so I headed to her location together with my men,” Stanley continued.
With that out of the way, he reluctantly let go of X. He held her hand in his and kissed it
emotionally.
“So that’s how you found me…” X marvelled at his intelligence and his efficiency.
“What about Master Lancelot’s henchmen? What did you guys do to them?” Her eyes widened;
attentive and brimming with curiosity.
Stanley took out a pistol from his waist slowly and ced it in X’s hands.
“Silent tranquilizer gun. The needles in there contain anesthetic drugs. As soon as the needle pricks
your skin, you’ll lose consciousness. The most important thing of all is that it makes no sound at
all…” Stanley said again.
No wonder they could not hear anything in the cabin when so many people copsed out there.
“I’ll give this to youter… If you happen to meet a bad guy, you can use it to defend yourself. Do
you know how to use a gun?”
X shook her head.
“I’ll teach you tomorrow,” he added.
X responded with an obedient nod.
Subsequently, Stanley averted his eyes to Zack, and the color quickly drained from his face.
“Zack…”
Zack nodded respectfully as he looked at Stanley’s face through the rearview mirror above him.

“I want Skyview Hotel to disappear from this world within a week…” Stanley ordered coldly as a hint
of ferocity shed in his eyes.
Once again, Zack gave him a courteous nod. “Yes, Fifth Master.”
