Chapter 722


    The other employees were getting off from work at this hour too.


    Therefore, the lobby was particrly crowded at the moment.


    Everyone’s attention was on the lovebirds.


    Envy and admiration were shimmering in their eyes as they looked at X Quest.


    After the two of them walked away from the lobby, all the employees began babbling and chatting


    among themselves.


    “Have you guys heard about our president’s new secretary, J? She was fired by our president


    this afternoon because she tried to seduce him.”


    “Are you serious? Who did you hear from?”


    “J’s good friend. She’s telling everyone about it. Do you know what our president told J?”


    “What?”


    “X Quest coincidentally entered the office when our president pushed J away. He


    immediately pulled X into his arm and asked J, ‘I have a noble, white peony by my side


    every single day. Do you think I’ll be interested in weed by the road?’ Hahahahaha… I can’t stop


    laughing about that.”


    “Damn, weed by the road! That’s pretty mean, but I don’t see anything wrong. The mistress really is


    noble and elegant. How can our president look at the others when he already has such a good-


    looking wife?”


    “Our president is the best man on earth. He’s handsome, and he’s loyal. Here’s another day of


    being jealous of X.”


    X and Stanley Batton totally did not hear their discussion.


    The pair stalked out of the building and got into Stanley’s ck Bentley Arnage together.


    Stanley drove the car.


    There were a few bodyguards following closely behind their car.


    Stanley held the steering wheel with his left hand while he reached for X’s hand with his other.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    X tacitly held his hand, her fingers curling around his.


    “The Gilbert family’s old man is going to be sentenced to life imprisonment, right?” X asked.


    “Yeah. The President was furious after he saw the news. That old man can never run away from life


    imprisonment. All his family assets have been seized too.”


    “What about Shawn Gilbert?”


    “Same. Life imprisonment.”


    “Cool. That evil duo deserves it. Life imprisonment is considered a light punishment for the two of


    them.” X had no sympathy for them at all.


    Whatsoever a man sowed, that shall he reap!


    “What do you want to eat?” Stanley brought X’s hand to his lips and kissed it.


    A tingling sensation spread across her skin instantaneously.


    Her heart leaped to her throat, and her blood was boiling.


    “I don’t want to eat anything too greasy at night. Shall we go for Japanese food?” X responded.


    “Alright.”


    “Can we go to the one downtown? Sakura?” X asked.


    “Of course. Wherever you want to go, I’ll bring you there…” His eyes were filled with tenderness,


    not at all the thunderous look he had when he was outside.


    In front of X, he would always be her most ideal husband.


    Buzz buzz buzz… Suddenly, X received a text message from Sharon Lindt, asking X to go


    disco with her.


    Without even thinking about it, she agreed to go with her.


    Then, she turned to look at Stanley. “Let’s go discoing after dinner.”


    “For what?” Stanley questioned her.


    “Mom wants to go.”


    He said nothing.


    “So… Are we going?”


    “If you insist on going, sure.” Stanley massaged his forehead helplessly.


    X chuckled. “Mom acts just like our age.”


    “Well, that’s true.”


    “It’s a good thing, right?” Xplimented.


    “My mom used to be more high-spirited back then. She is trying to restrain herself now.”


    “Is that so?”


    “Yeah. When I was a kid, she would drag my dad to the disco to drink with her almost every night.


    What’s crazier to me is that…”
