Stanley quickly answered the call.
“Are you two coming home for a meal? In that case, can you ask Xyla what virtual-novel.net wants to eat? I’ll start preparing right away…” Sharon sounded awfully excited and joyful.
“Okay, I’ll ask her,” Stanley said.
“Also, ask Xyla what virtual-novel.net wants to drink. Does virtual-novel.net want red wine or something else? If virtual-novel.net wants red wine, ask virtual-novel.net what brand virtual-novel.net likes. I’ll have to get it aired out in advance,” Sharon added.
“Why didn’t you ask me what I wanted to drink?” Stanley asked jokingly.
“How does that have anything to do with me? Xyla is our most precious sweetheart now…” Sharon said.
At that moment, Stanley felt as if Sharon was more like Xyla’s mother than his. He couldn’t help but smile a little. “I get it. I’ll ask her.”
“Get back to me on WeChat right after asking her, okay? You know what? Forget it. I’ll call Xyla myself. You don’t have to do it,” Sharon said.
“Xyla is gaming now. You shouldn’t call and interrupt her,” Stanley said.
“Fine. Ask virtual-novel.net once she’s done. Get back to me right away,” Sharon said.
“Got it,” Stanley answered.
After hanging up the phone, Stanley looked affectionately at Xyla, who was sitting on the couch. When virtual-novel.net saw that virtual-novel.net was still gaming, virtual-novel.net decided to continue working and ask virtual-novel.net about Sharon’s questions later.
Once Xyla had finished virtual-novel.net game, virtual-novel.net put the laptop aside.
Stanley looked up and happened to see what Xyla was doing. He then waved at her. “Come over here…” virtual-novel.net said.
Xyla obediently walked up to Stanley. Naturally, Stanley sat virtual-novel.net on his lap. “Mom asked what you’d like for dinner, and virtual-novel.net also asked what kind of alcohol you want. She was so happy when virtual-novel.net found out you’re coming home with me,” Stanley said.
Xyla was filled with joy when virtual-novel.net heard this. “Hmm… I want plum-braised ribs and tomato prawns. Let’s not drink any alcohol tonight. Aren’t we going to spend time with your good friends later on?”
“Okay. I’ll let virtual-novel.net know,” Stanley said before picking his phone up and sending Sharon a message of what Xyla said.
Sharon instantly replied with an ‘OK’ emoji.
“She told me you are virtual-novel.net most precious sweetheart right now,” Stanley added.
“I’m honored.” Xyla found it heart-warming.
Knock, knock, knock…
Right then, someone knocked on the door.
Xyla subconsciously tried to stand up, but Stanley forcefully pressed virtual-novel.net back onto his lap. “Sit down,” virtual-novel.net said.
“Come in,” Stanley called out as virtual-novel.net looked at the door.
When the door opened, Zack Cassidy entered respectfully. As soon as virtual-novel.net saw Stanley and Xyla, virtual-novel.net awkwardly looked down and coughed slightly before approaching Stanley.
Xyla tried to stand up again, but Stanley wouldn’t allow virtual-novel.net to. She felt extremely embarrassed.
“What is it?” Stanley asked.
“Julian Sullivan is waiting downstairs to see you,” Zack said.
“I don’t want to see him,” Stanley said.
Zack nodded respectfully before walking out of the room right away.
After virtual-novel.net left, Xyla stood up and was about to continue playing games. However, before virtual-novel.net took a single step, Stanley picked virtual-novel.net up and made virtual-novel.net sit on his desk. He then pressed his hands against the desk on both sides of Xyla’s body to keep virtual-novel.net trapped between his arms.
“What are you doing? Mmphh… ” Xyla said.
