Xyla sounded firm. Since Stanley refused to listen to her when she was not being assertive, she would

have to take a more assertive stance. When the men dressed in black heard her, they were all

shocked. Each one of them felt nervous on her behalf.

Xyla actually dared to speak to Stanley like that. Did she have a death wish?

“Alright, alright. I’ll listen to you,” said Stanley, shaking his head helplessly. There was a gentle look in

his eyes.

Covering Xyla up with his coat, he buttoned it up for her from behind, then shifted it until the buttons

were in front. “You can put your hands through the sleeves now. It’ll feel more comfortable that way.”

The men dressed in black were stunned. They looked at one another in confusion. Was this the real

Stanley?

They felt utterly confused by what was happening. Nobody had ever spoken to him like this. When did

he ever treat a woman in such a way?

“Why aren’t you getting your men to stop then?” asked Xyla.

Stanley pinched his forehead before waving at one of the men around him. The man immediately ran

into the villa. After that, another man dressed in black opened the car door on the other side for

Stanley.

Elegantly getting into the car and moving close to her, he asked, “Are you happy now?”

Xyla nodded satisfactorily. “Oh, right. Did they record what happened earlier? If they did, you can use

that to threaten Tom so that he won’t make a big fuss.”

“They know what to do,” said Stanley. A faint smile appeared on his face once again.

“Oh. Thank you for saving my life. If it wasn’t for you, I’d be dead now,” said Xyla sincerely.

“Why the formality?” Stanley asked, carefully brushing her messy hair.

“You… How did you find out something happened to me? And how did you find your way here?” asked

Xyla. She felt curious about everything that happened.

“Because of this,” replied Stanley, slowly taking Xyla’s phone out of his pocket. The screen of the

phone was shattered.

“When I left the house, I noticed your phone on the road and immediately sensed something was

amiss. Hence, I went to check the road surveillance footage and found out that all the footage from the

time you left home was gone. I knew that something must have happened to you.”

“What happened after that?”

“I thought about it carefully. At this point, the only people who would do anything to you are the

members of the Sullivan family. I couldn’t think of anyone else. That’s why I asked someone to find out

where each of them was located. Tom Sullivan’s location was the only one I couldn’t find…”

“And then?”

Xyla could no longer conceal her admiration for him. How could someone as smart as Stanley exist in

this world? It was such a shame he did not become a police officer who worked on cases. Xyla was

certain that he could solve any case that existed. She felt proud to have met a man like him.

“After that, I tracked Tom down via his phone signal,” said Stanley.

He was describing everything without emotion, almost as if it was something completely normal. But,

Xyla did not think it was normal. She gave him a thumbs up. “Amazing… You even know how to track

someone down through their phone signal!”

“Yeah… I know a few things about that,” he said.

“Is there anything in this world that you don’t know?” Xyla asked gleefully.

“Yes.”

“I don’t know how to not care about you,” he said calmly before lighting a cigarette and elegantly taking

a puff.

For some reason, his words made Xyla’s heart quiver. “I owe you another favor,” she said with a smile.

Ever since Xyla met him, she began to owe him favors and money. In fact, her debt to him only

continued to grow.

“I seem to owe you more and more things. How should I pay you in return?” she asked.

While Xyla spoke, a man dressed in black got into the car and began to drive it forward.
