Xyla Quest stroked her hair awkwardly. She gathered all her courage to meet Stanley Batton’s eyes

and said, “Of course I’m worried about you. We’re still working together, you see. It will be very

troublesome to me if anything were to happen to you.”

“Oh? Is that what this is all about?” Stanley’s eyes were full of suspicion.

“And… And we’re friends. I don’t want my friend to get into any trouble.”

“And?” Stanley continued to ask calmly.

“That’s all…” Xyla answered.

“Oh…”

“Look, you’ve helped me a lot. It’s unsurprising that I care about you,” she added.

“Oh.” Stanley looked deeply into her eyes, the corner of his lips was still curving upwards.

For some reason, Xyla always felt that his eyes were able to see through her, he seemed to know what

she was thinking deep in her heart. She began to tense up inexplicably. She could not explain why she

felt so nervous. And her heartbeat was accelerating, too.

“You should lie down and rest well in your bed even if you’re worried. You’re still sick.” Stanley placed

one arm around her back and scooped the other arm around the bend in her knees, and lifted her up.

She was very slim. She was as light as a feather in his arms.

Xyla’s heart shrank and her heartbeat went crazy. “What are you doing? I can walk on my own.”

Stanley did not answer. He marched towards the snow white bed and put her down carefully on it. He

covered her with a blanket gently. “You’re injured. You can’t move around much.”

“I mainly hurt my shoulder. The rest of my body is perfectly fine…”

“You’re still not allowed to move even if they’re fine.”

“…”

Sebastian Brenand put his hand around Henry Armstrong’s shoulder and strode forward. He casually

sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the two of them and shivering.

“Henry, shouldn’t we get out of here?” he looked at Henry playfully.

Henry nodded, “I guess so?”

Xyla Quest blushed with embarrassment.

“Hurry up and get lost.” Stanley said without turning a hair.

“What if I say no?” Henry chuckled and joked.

“Stop it guys… Please don’t make a scene.” Xyla said.

Stanley stopped saying anything. He stared at her and asked, “How do you feel?”

Her shoulder was not aching anymore right now. She nodded. “Yeah, I’m fine. What’s wrong with you?

Where did you go?”

“We went to punish Fred Thomson, of course.” Henry got up and grabbed an apple. He juggled the

apple casually before pulling a chair to sit beside Xyla and began peeling the apple seriously.

Stanley went around to the other side of the bed and sat down too.

Xyla looked at Henry with a startled face. “What?! Punish Fred? The three of you?”

“I did it myself.” Stanley replied.

Xyla could not believe what she had heard. “What? You did it on your own? Why did you go after him

suddenly? Didn’t we say that we will find him at the casino in the afternoon?”

“Where did you meet Fred? And what did you do to him? Was it like how we planned? Are you alright?

Did he touch you?” Her chest was filled with numerous questions.

“I didn’t suffer from anything. He’s already in the police station right now and he will be sentenced later

on.” Stanley responded.

At the moment, Xyla had more questions running through her mind. She could not believe her ears at

all. She was surprised and excited at the same time. In her opinion, it was not easy to send Fred to jail.

How did the man sitting in front of her manage to do it in such a short period of time?

She began to shoot them with more and more questions as she was eager to know the truth. “How did

you do that? You’re amazing!”
