Seeing that Jeremy Quest was calling her, Xyla Quest immediately answered the call.

"Xyla, cto my house now. I have something to tell you." Jeremy cut to the chase.

"Okay. I'm coming over." As Xyla spoke, she turned to look at Stanley Batton. "I need to go hnow. You have srest first. I'll be back soon." "Do you wantto go with you?" Stanley wrapped his arm around Xyla's waist and asked dotingly.

However, Xyla shook her head. "Nah, it's okay." "Alright then. I'll wait for you upstairs," Stanley said.

After that, Xyla got into her red Maserati and headed straight to the Quest family's house.

Jeremy was sitting alone in front of the coffee table when Xyla pulled open the door. There was no one around him except a glass of warm milk.

The living room was cheerless as all the maids were not around.

Though Jeremy seemed a little depressed sitting there alone, his presence imparted an air of elegance.

Xyla immediately hurried to the living room and sat down next to him. "Dad, is there anything important you want to talk toabout?" "Well, you know I've been in a bad mood lately. I'm planning to go on a trip so I can put my mind at ease. I'm not sure how long I'll be away. I'll just leave the company to you when I'm not around." Jeremy sighed.

Xyla knew that May Conner's and Emily Quest's death was a big blow to her father.

Therefore, she was not surprised that her father needed a break.

Instead, she fully supported her father to go on vacation.

"That's a good idea. Don't worry, Dad. I'll take care of the company," Xyla replied softly. She slid her fingers between Jeremy's and reassured him, "Dad, go ahead and do what you want to do. I'll support you even if you're going to take a long break. You can cback anytime. I just want you to be happy. That's the most important thing to me.

"However, I have a request. You have to bring bodyguards with you wherever you go. There must be someone who can take care of you and protect you when I'm not around, okay? Otherwise, I'll be worried sick about you," Xyla admonished him.

Jeremy nodded. "I will. Alright, you should go back now. It's late." "I'll stay with you for a while. I'm not in a hurry anyway." Xyla leaned on his shoulder.

Having no other choice, Jeremy nodded.

He had inwardly decided at this moment...

*** Xyla stayed at the Quest family's house for a long time.

Finally, Jeremy felt sleepy. Xyla immediately helped him to his room and covered him with the blanket to prevent him from catching a cold.

After cleaning up the coffee table, she went back to her house.

It was already midnight when she reached home.

Xyla pushed open the door of her bedroom and found that Stanley was still awake.

He was currently sitting on the bed, staring at his laptop screen. A solemn expression was etched upon his face as his fingers danced across the keyboard.

The room was ill-lit. All the lights were out except the lamp on the bedside table.

The warm yellow light shone brightly on the man's face, causing his brows to look extraordinarily captivating.

The light had also added luster to his black silk loungewear, setting off his fair smooth skin.

Noticing Xyla's arrival, the man slowly put away his laptop and walked up to her. He held her hand and kissed it En.

gently. A prickly feeling ran down her skin, all the way to her heart.

Once again, her heart skipped a beat.

"Let's go and have a look at the star," Stanley whispered.

"Is the astronomical telescope here?" Xyla asked in surprise.

"Yeah. It's here. Cwith me."

Before Xyla could even respond, Stanley gave her a princess hug and carried her to the balcony. Be hit the switch on the wall with his back as he walked past the door. Suddenly, all the lights in the balcony were switched on.
