Xyla shook virtual-novel.net head. “I don’t know. Speaking of which, which room is empty? I need some sleep to put my mind at ease. I’ll get back to you on that after I wake up.”
Georgie did not say anything else. She simply held Xyla’s right hand in virtual-novel.net own before leading virtual-novel.net to an empty guest room and stopping in front of the door. “You can sleep here tonight. There are pajamas and some brand new bras inside the closet. Feel free to wear them.”
Xyla nodded virtual-novel.net head in response. “Thanks, Georgie.”
Then, Georgie pushed open the door and turned on the lights. “Go to bed now and stop thinking about it. Call me if you need anything, alright?”
“Okay. If virtual-novel.net calls you to ask about my whereabouts, please tell virtual-novel.net that you have no idea.” Xyla reminded virtual-novel.net before virtual-novel.net sank onto the bed.
She refused to see virtual-novel.net at the moment. All virtual-novel.net wanted to do was to calm herself down and leave everything behind.
“Although your post-surgery recovery is going really well, you still need to have enough rest. Just get some sleep first, okay?” Georgie added.
Georgie was well aware of what Xyla felt for him. She understood how much virtual-novel.net trusted this man, too.
Suddenly, it turned out that the man, who virtual-novel.net had opened virtual-novel.net heart to, was wearing a mask all the time. He approached virtual-novel.net with a fake identity, hiding many secrets from virtual-novel.net and lying to virtual-novel.net for years. Undoubtedly, Xyla must have felt very hurt deep inside. However, Georgie also knew Xyla’s personality very well. She would not listen to anyone’s consolation or advice at this moment.
What Xyla needed the most now was a good sleep, to cool down and to keep virtual-novel.net emotions under control, before pursuing the matter. As virtual-novel.net best friend, Georgie felt terribly upset to see virtual-novel.net fall into despair too.
Closing the door behind her, Georgie sighed heavily and headed back to the living room. Her initial sleepiness had all vanished because of Xyla’s arrival…
Meanwhile, Xyla had gotten to bathe after grabbing the pajamas from the closet. After that, virtual-novel.net dried virtual-novel.net hair using the hairdryer and plopped herself down on the bed without bothering to apply virtual-novel.net skin care products. She could not fall asleep despite virtual-novel.net immense sleepiness. Her eyes were closed but virtual-novel.net heart was rather restless.
All sorts of thoughts flooded virtual-novel.net brain, refusing to let virtual-novel.net rest.
There were too many things about Stanley Batton that virtual-novel.net could not see through.
Buzz… Buzz… Buzz…
Outside of virtual-novel.net room, Georgie’s phone vibrated. It was ‘Five Batton’ that displayed on the screen… Immediately, virtual-novel.net pressed the green ‘answer’ icon while trying to maintain virtual-novel.net composure…
“Did Xyla go to your place?” On the other end of the phone, Stanley was currently standing, panting, in the middle of the living room of his villa.
“No. What happened?” asked Georgie.
“Really?” Stanley did not believe.
“Yeah… What’s going on?” Georgie questioned virtual-novel.net again.
“Nothing.” Following that, virtual-novel.net hung up the phone and stalked out of the house.
Xyla was not with Georgie. He had gone to the balcony just now to take a look at the yard. However, Xyla’s red Maserati was clearly not in the yard, which meant that virtual-novel.net did not come home either.
Where the hell did virtual-novel.net go?
He did not have time to think about it. He instantly called Zack Cassidy after virtual-novel.net got into the car. “I want to know where Xyla is within two hours.”
On the other end of the phone, Zack was still in a daze after being awakened by Stanley’s call. As soon as virtual-novel.net heard Stanley’s order, his sleepiness had disappeared right away.
