Xyla Quest turned to face the three of them and smiled. “Well, I’m not disabled.”
“Why do you need someone to carry you if you’re not disabled?” One of them asked.
“Because I love to do so.” Stanley Batton answered.
His statement had ended the conversation between Xyla and the girl. Everyone in the elevator cringed at his words.
The girls were screaming in excitement internally.
Xyla’s heart began to race involuntarily, too.
She knew that the words just flowed out of his mouth without actually meaning it but they did touch her heart.
“My godddd...It’s his sweetness that breaks your legs, eh?”
“I think I’m dying right now. What kind of ideal boyfriend is this?”
“I want to become her so badly! I can’t hold myself back.”
All the girls in the elevator went crazy...
They were like two of the most perfect diamonds, shining and shimmering as nothing else but their sparkles could be seen.
Soon, the elevator was the first to arrive at their floor.
Stanley Batton carried Xyla in his arms and headed straight to Emily's ward. Again, countless eyes fell on them along the aisle.
“Well...You can put me down now.” Xyla whispered, her cheeks were kissed pink. She looked like a red rose in full bloom.
Stanley put her down carefully and knocked on the door a few times.
“Come in…” May Conner’s voice was ringing from the ward.
Stanley pushed open the door, grabbed Xyla’s hand and entered the ward.
“My girl...Thanks for your understanding.” Jeremy held Xyla’s hand and his eyes were filled with gratitude.
“I should always be considerate of you.” Xyla’s eyes reddened unconsciously. “Remember to take your medicines as well as injections, and avoid eating spicy food for now, eat something light. Is there anything you crave for? I’ll make it for you.”
“It’s okay, your aunt will cook for me.” Jeremy said.
“That’s good…” Xyla nodded.
“Your sister will stay at home after this. She’s not in a good state so if she ever confronts you when you come back home, I hope you don’t mind about her.” Jeremy Quest added.
“I won’t.” Xyla reassured.
“My lawyer just gave me a call to inform me that the will has been notarized.” Jeremy smiled as he panted. “My girl, now that you’re the heir of the company, daddy will have to teach you more in the future.”
He sounded so soft and gentle.
On the bed next to them, Emily Quest rolled over and turned her back to everyone.
