Chapter 1738


    Stanley Batton didn’t say anything unnecessary.


    He didn’t even allow his gaze to linger.


    Soon, the bodyguards in front of him surrounded Cindy and forcefully lifted her. They then walked


    out of Stanley’s line of sight…


    Despite Cindy Dunn’s struggles, it was of no help.


    There were many people in the mall…


    Everyone was looking at her.


    The mocking looks and smirks on their faces were like knives that stabbed deep into her heart.


    She felt painfully humiliated…


    Right then, she wished she could hide in a hole and nevere out.


    Cindy was good-looking and seductive.


    Whenever she took the initiative, men would fall for her. So why was Stanley an exception?


    Wasn’t there a saying that the grass was always greener on the other side?


    Although X Quest was pretty, she was Stanley’s wife.


    Wouldn’t Stanley have gotten bored of her?


    Stanley should’ve wanted to cheat on her with another woman.


    Why didn’t Cindy’s n work on Stanley?


    In the beginning, Cindy thought that men only chose not to cheat because the temptations in the


    outside world weren’t great enough…


    She always felt that women who tried to seduce Stanley simply weren’t as good as her.


    But now, she realized she had been gravely mistaken…


    Even seductive women like herself couldn’t bend Stanley’s undying love for X.


    Cindy was consumed with jealousy.


    She and X were both women. So why was X able to get such a good man?


    Why?


    After Cindy was dragged away, Stanley walked out of the mall.


    He then got into his ck Rolls-Royce.


    Outside, the northerly winds blew, and snow poured from the sky.


    It was chillingly cold.


    However, inside the car, it felt as warm as summer.


    The temperature was up to thirty degrees.

    Stanley very soon forgot about the minor interlude from a while ago.


    He smiled a little as he texted X on WeChat to inform her what he’d bought for her.


    He described each item in detail.


    However, X didn’t reply to his messages.


    Stanley stared at the screen for several minutes.


    Even after the entourage of cars had started moving, there was still no reply from X.


    Stanley felt a little worried.


    He immediately called X on the phone…


    However, X still didn’t respond at all.


    After the failed attempt, Stanley called X several times more.


    However, nobody picked up.


    Stanley began to feel a little restless.


    He immediately called the security manager responsible for X’s safety at all times.


    The reply he received was that X was in the house.


    When Stanley heard this, he immediately stopped worrying.


    He guessed that X probably fell asleep in the house.


    Hence, he hung up the phone feeling relieved.


    ***


    At midnight, Stanley arrived home.


    The lights in the bedroom were turned off, but the lights in other areas of the house were all left


    on…
