Chapter 1728


    Hence, X Quest exited from the news article and switched over to the financial news bulletin to


    check out what was trending for the day.


    The headline of the financial news bulletin was rted to Tony Sullivan’s death.


    X didn’t tap on it.


    Instead, she briefly checked out news about other businesses.


    All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    While going through the news, her phone started ringing.


    The call was from Stanley Batton.


    When X saw the word ‘Honey’, her gaze immediately became tender.


    She subconsciously smiled before picking it up. “Hey, honey…”


    Her tone was very gentle when she spoke.


    On the other side of the phone, Stanley was inspecting each department of a subsidiarypany in


    City K with arge group of people. His facial expression was cold.


    There was arge group of high-level executives behind him, as well as a group of bodyguards.


    Everyone seemed timid and careful…


    Stanley wore a ck shirt, a fitting high-ss suit, and a custom-made, high-ss coat…


    He seemed unspeakably noble.


    There was a stark contrast between the cold colors of his outfit and his fair skin.


    His skin seemed almost fair as snow.


    Right then, he was holding his phone as he walked into the nning department while surrounded


    by the entourage.


    Every employee in the vast office space of several hundred square meters all stood up.


    “Hello, Mr. Batton,” they called out simultaneously.


    Stanley nodded at them slightly before cing his right index finger on his lips, signaling them to


    keep quiet.


    The others immediately fell silent when they saw this.


    In fact, they subconsciously made sure they breathed without making any noise.


    “Are you awake?” Stanley asked softly. The coldness on his face instantly vanished.


    The significant contrast made everyone subconsciously look at his face.


    Stanley was known for spoiling his wife rotten. The whole world knew about this.


    However, everyone still felt a little jealous when they saw him in action.


    “Yeah… Are you busy?” X asked as she looked out at the snowing world.


    “I’m inspecting a subsidiarypany. I’ll probably be homete. I’ve already prepared lunch and


    dinner for you…


    “Lunch is kept inside the ss container on the dining table. You can eat it after heating it.


    “I’ve already put dinner in the fridge. So you can heat it at night and eat it too.


    “Also, I’ve cleaned fruits and put them on the top level in the fridge. Don’t forget to eat them at


    night…” Stanley said as if nobody else was around.


    The single people in the room instantly felt attacked when they heard this…


    ‘When will it be my turn to experience sweet love like this?’ Thedies were all wondering to


    themselves.


    When X heard what Stanley said, she immediately felt warmth spread in her heart. “Alright…


    Make sure you eat properly out there…”


    “Don’t get too exhausted, okay?” X asked.


    “Okay. Don’t work toote. Get home earlier. If you need any help, go to Zack… He’ll be on standby


    twenty-four-seven,” Stanley said.


    Stanley was behaving as if he was all alone…


    Regardless of how many people were looking at him, he didn’t feel shy at all.


    “Okay…” X said.


    “Also, don’t wear high heels. It’s not safe…” Stanley added.


    “Hmm… Fine then.” X had lost count of how many times Stanley suggested this to her.


    This time, X chose to do as he said…
