“I found nothing yet,” answered a female voice from the other end.

“Continue investigating! I’ve said that I will reward you with 1.5 million dollars, now I’m offering you two

million!” After that, she hung up.

Then, she called Tom’s number again, but this time, the operator informed her that the number was

invalid. She knew that Tom had blocked her number. She wanted to immediately return to the Sullivan

manor, but knowing that the Sullivan family was currently livid, going back now would do her no good.

Moreover, without knowing how things would develop and if she needed to return to prison, the best

option was to run away. She would leave the rest to her mother and try to solve her own problems for

now.

At this thought, she began speedily packing her luggage, without any attention to pay to her dress that

was now covered in blood. Even when packing her luggage, the image of how she got played by Xyla

today kept resurfacing in her mind. With these thoughts, she couldn’t calm down. She got more irritated

and more frenzied!

“Ahhh!!!” she growled as she hastily folded her clothes.

She was going mad! Really mad! Why did she have to be so unlucky?

By the time Xyla returned downstairs, everything was back to normal. Guests were eating at the tables

while May greeted them like she was fine. From her behavior, it was as if nothing had happened. She

was still wearing a bright smile.

Xyla was used to May Conner’s shamelessness.

Hence, Xyla shifted her gaze to Stanley. Even in a sea of people, she could spot him with just one

glance. Everyone else talked to each other while only he sat alone, aloof and detached.

His sitting posture was most proper out of everyone present. His actions were similar to that of a well-

educated aristocrat.

Many young ladies from tables beside him were staring at him, but he never gave them so much as a

glance. Just then, he slowly lifted his head as his gaze fell on her face in the sea of people.

He put his chopsticks down, and in front of everyone, strode over to her. He was staring only into her

eyes.

“Is everything taken care of?” he asked.

“Yeah.” Xyla nodded slightly. “Have you finished eating?”

“Yeah,” he replied faintly.

“Then, let’s take a seat inside my car to take a breather,” said Xyla, then she lowered her head to send

Georgie a WeChat message, ‘Proceed.’

“Aren’t you going to eat?” Stanley asked.

“I’ll eat later. I don’t have an appetite.”

Xyla smiled, holding the white fox fur coat tighter as she walked outside.

The moment she turned, May coincidentally caught sight of her. The latter’s expression immediately

darkened as she kept scolding Xyla, calling her a b*tch in her heart.

Stanley followed and walked beside her. This gorgeous couple attracted looks of envy from the people

around them. The weather outside was tranquil, with the sun shining bright.

Although the temperature was still low, it was considered good weather for winter in Atlantis City.

She was wearing only transparent stockings, so she quickly dashed into the red Maserati due to the

chill and turned on the heater the moment she stepped outside.

Soon, he got in from the other side. He rolled down the window halfway and lit a cigarette.

He did not smoke the cigarette but held it between his slender fingers, letting the smoke surround him

as he slowly turned to look at her. “When did you find out that Emily wasn’t pregnant?”

“I was already suspicious when she announced her pregnancy, so I took her pulse,” Xyla answered

with a smile. “Do you remember when Emily got sent to prison? Back then, she wasn’t pregnant. I

suspect that she has bribed a law enforcement officer to escape getting caught.”
