Chapter 619
At night, Josh Batton still needed to film for Teenage Idol. Georgie Clementine needed to be there
as well.
There was still arge pile of documents waiting to be signed by her in the office.
***
The next morning, when X Quest woke up, Stanley Batton was still not by her side.
Xzily sat up in bed.
After looking around, she noticed there wasn’t any note. She knew that he probably hadn’t left and
was making breakfast downstairs.
When X thought about Stanley, a pleasant smile appeared on her face.
“Beep, beep, beep…”
Just as she was about to get out of bed, her phone rang.
A news headline appeared on the screen.
“Is Skyview Hotel going down the drain soon?”
X immediately tapped into the news and checked it out.
She was shocked by what came into sight.
“At 8 o’clock Antis time, Skyview Hotel’s investors all over the world began requesting for their
investment capital to be withdrawn. As soon as the news got out, various major banks in the world
requested their loans to be repaid simultaneously.
“After the incident of Ada insulting citizens of Country Z, Skyview Hotel will be facing an even more
severe threat. Thepany will likely face aplete shut-down. Now, Skyview Hotel’s stock price
is still continuously falling…”
X didn’t expect Dragon Group to take such swift, decisive action against Skyview Group’s core
business.
Right then, the door opened, and Stanley slowly walked in.
He was wearing a ck, silk pajama with a V-neck cor. His muscr chest waspletely bare.
A view of Stanley like this made him seem cold yet desirable to X.
Stanley sat next to her directly. When he saw the screen on her phone, he extended his hand and
scooped her into his arms before pressing his chin on her shoulder. “Reading the news?” He asked.
“Yeah… You’re really quick…” X said.
“Am I quick?” Stanley asked.
“Aren’t you?”
“Looks like I’ll have to extend it to at least an hour next time…” Stanley chuckled.
X instantly blushed.
What was he talking about?
“What’s wrong with you? I was serious…” Xined with a frown.
“I was serious too,” Stanley said before pressing his body against her and holding her face with his
hands.
“Whoever messes with you will have to face severe consequences,” he added.
In the next second, Stanley started kissing her all over.

Meanwhile, in a luxurious VIP ward, Sebastian Brenand slowly opened his eyes.
When he saw Rachel Wood looking at her phone, sitting up on the bed, he immediately extended
his arm and pulled her into his embrace tightly. “How do you feel? Are you feeling better today?”
Sebastian asked.
“Hmm… Much better,” Rachel said with a deep frown. She allowed him to hold her.
Without saying anything, Sebastian continued to hold her and caress her hair softly.
“Sebastian…” Rachel slowly opened her mouth. There was a slight redness in her eyes.
“Hmm? Say it…” Sebastian said.
“About the money you’ve been giving me each month, you normally transfer it to me once a month.
Today happens to be the final day of the month,” Rachel said.
“Okay. I’ll transfer the money to youter,” Sebastian said.
“That’s not what I meant.” Rachel looked down and tugged at his cor carefully.
“What do you mean then?” Sebastian asked confusedly.
“What I meant was… From today on, you don’t have to transfer money to me anymore…” Rachel
exined.
Sensing that something was wrong with Rachel, Sebastian immediately pulled her away from him
and carefully studied her face. “What are you trying to say?” He asked.
“I’m saying… I think… I think… I think we should end this thing between us.” Rachel’s eyes were
turning red.
After Rachel finished speaking, she felt her heart aching.
