If only virtual-novel.net had adhered to his principles when Xyla was hideous. If only virtual-novel.net had resisted the temptation to cheat when Xyla was fat.
Would his life have been better that way?
Unfortunately, there were no ifs in this world. Results and consequences were the only things that awaited him.
Buzz buzz buzz…
Suddenly, his phone vibrated, pulling virtual-novel.net back to the present from his deep thoughts. Torn slowly recollected himself and took a look at his phone.
Seeing that Bailey Ronson was calling him, virtual-novel.net quickly answered the call, “Yes?”
“The detention center just informed us that your sister would be released tomorrow morning. Let’s go to pick virtual-novel.net up together,” Bailey said.
“Okay…”
“About the divorce… Well, our decision is final. I hope you can make up your mind soon. By the way, you’d better come back and apologize to your father. He’s mad.”
Tom felt a flicker of frustration at the mention of the word ‘divorce’. Irritation, grievance, and disappointment piled up in his heart, engulfing virtual-novel.net like a horrifying monster.
He was at a loss for word. He immediately hung up on Bailey, switched off his phone, and threw it onto the passenger seat impatiently.
He gritted his teeth as virtual-novel.net mumbled to himself, “Emily… Emily…”

In the evening, after Stanley and Xyla had had dinner with Jeremy at the Quest family’s house, they went back to Xyla’s old bedroom.
The house had not changed in the slightest after virtual-novel.net left. Everything was the same as it was.
“Take a shower and get some rest. Don’t stay up too late,” Xyla reminded him.
“Alright, let’s take a shower together,” As Stanley spoke, virtual-novel.net stretched his arms and lifted virtual-novel.net effortlessly.
Xyla’s heart was racing frantically at that instant.
“Nah, I’ll take a bath after you… You should save some energy,” Xyla whispered awkwardly.
He had just recovered, after all.
“Why? Are you afraid that I’m too weak to do it?” Stanley cracked into a mischievous smile.
Xyla nodded truthfully.
“Well, I’ll let you know whether I’m weak or not…”
Following that statement, virtual-novel.net carried virtual-novel.net straight into the bathroom.
As soon as virtual-novel.net stepped into the bathroom, virtual-novel.net displayed his domineering personality and proved himself to virtual-novel.net physically.
He went on until Xyla started to beg for mercy. Only then was virtual-novel.net willing to release virtual-novel.net and carry virtual-novel.net to the bathtub for a quick bath.

Rolling virtual-novel.net eyes at the man grouchily, Xyla put on the snow-white bathrobe and walked to the sink. She then reached for the hairdryer and started drying virtual-novel.net hair.
Her stunning figure was perfectly reflected in the mirror. Her bare face was as beautiful as a flower. Meanwhile, the culprit was casually wrapping a white towel around his waist as if nothing had just happened.
Once again, Xyla rolled virtual-novel.net eyes at virtual-novel.net through the mirror. She then ignored virtual-novel.net and focused on drying virtual-novel.net hair.
Stanley walked up to virtual-novel.net after twisting the end of his towel into a tight knot. He took the hairdryer from virtual-novel.net and dried virtual-novel.net hair nimbly.
Xyla was glad that virtual-novel.net husband came to help virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net arms were sore. She placed virtual-novel.net palms on the sink and stood there in silence, happily enjoying Stanley’s special service.
