She shouldn't have put that much faith in Five Batton. She should have hinted more times to him and not just once.

It was far too late for that. Trouble was already at their doorstep.

Outsiders would definitely have started criticizing her. Who knows how many people were already laughing at her behind her back.

As for her father. She knew he would die from rage as soon as he saw the news.

Her family would be in chaos.

Thinking about it, Xyla Quest's brows furrowed, a great discomfort in her heart. With wrinkles already starting to form on her forehead, she began calling the man's number, a clear look of distraught on her face.

While she was calling, a group of executives of the Dragon Group was having a meeting in the Dragon Group's conference room.

Stanley Batton had a matching black suit on and he sat on the main seat with his usual poker face. He was giving orders to the executives of each department of the company when his phone began to ring. The call was untimely and everyone's eyes fell on him almost automatically.

A frown formed on his face as he checked to see who was calling. The moment he saw the word 'Xyla' flashing on the screen, his frigid facade dropped almost instantaneously.

He turned to look back at the crowd, careful to have his poker face on before doing so. "We'll pause the meeting for a while." As he walked toward the door, Stanley answered the call.

"Five Batton! What on earth is wrong with you? I told you to be extra careful had I not? Why didn't you just listen?" Xyla's tone was filled with anger.

The conference room was carpeted and the executives weren't talking loudly when the call was answered. Though his speaker wasn't on, all the executives could still hear Xyla's anger.

Everyone was simply stunned at that moment as they slowly looked at each other.

Who on earth would dare to talk to their CEO like that? That person would be better off dead! Everyone took turns looking at Stanley's face, expecting him to burst into anger.

However...

There weren't any emotions on his face at all. Rather, his eyes reflected how perplexed he was at her words. "... What are you saying? I don't understand." Noticing that he was still in the conference room, he opened the door and left.

As the door closed behind him, everyone started discussing about the mysterious woman.

"She sounded angry at him but he barely gave any response." "Is he really our CEO? Did he get possessed or something?" "That's the first tI've ever seen him bear such a gentle reaction." Zack Cassidy was in the room and silently agreed with all the chatter. However, he didn't say anything and kept his usual calm facade on.

Stanley leaned against a wall as he took in everything that Xyla explained to him.

"Haven't you read the news? You've been exposed for cheating on me! I've told you before, haven't? That even if you want to cheat, you should be very careful when you're around that girl. You went to a KFC and a hotel with her! Don't you know how to keep a low profile?" Stanley was stunned but more confused than anything.

Exposed for cheating on her? Bzz... bzz... His phone vibrated after she stopped talking for a brief moment, "There, I've sent the article to you. Open your WeChat to have a look," said Xyla.

Without ending the call, he tapped on the news article to get sm answers. S'aï*h the Find Nøvál.nøt Smarth website on Google to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. He was shocked when he saw the full article.

It took him a moment before he regained his composure. "Are you still there?" "I am..." Xyla's tone was still filled with anger.

"Are you angry?"

"How could I not be? Our marriage may be fake but only we knew about that! Everyone else thinks that you're my real husband. Now that my husband's cheated onand it's on all the major headlines, how could I not be angry?" X
