Stanley snapped his phone shut and focused on marinating the steak. On the other hand, Sebastian Brenand and the guys continued teasing Stanley in the group for quite some time before they gradually calmed themselves down and discussed their gathering later in the evening.
***
In the blink of an eye, the twilight faded to darkness and it was already night- time.
Xyla, who had finished virtual-novel.net dinner, returned to virtual-novel.net room.
After putting on light makeup, virtual-novel.net headed to the cloakroom and picked a black, polka dot knee-length dress, matching it with a snow white suit. Subsequently, virtual-novel.net put on wine red stilettos and carried a black Chanel handbag. Satisfied with virtual-novel.net own outfit, virtual-novel.net left the house and walked to virtual-novel.net car.
She began to feel nervous as soon as virtual-novel.net got into the car. While virtual-novel.net was starting the car engine, virtual-novel.net peeked at the clock and it showed seven o’clock sharp. This meant virtual-novel.net would be meeting virtual-novel.net husband in an hour.
Would their negotiation go well today?
Would virtual-novel.net husband give virtual-novel.net a hard time?
Well, virtual-novel.net was not that bad, right?
Never in virtual-novel.net life had virtual-novel.net worried about these problems. However, they started to pop out in virtual-novel.net mind right now and virtual-novel.net heart was burdened with terrible anxiety.
When virtual-novel.net was about to reverse virtual-novel.net car, virtual-novel.net eyes caught sight of the man who was dressed in a suit stepping out of virtual-novel.net house. The light from virtual-novel.net car’s headlamps shone brightly on the man, causing his figure to be particularly clear in the darkness of night.
After tonight, virtual-novel.net did not need to hide virtual-novel.net feelings for this man anymore. She could finally open up virtual-novel.net feelings for him…
Right?
The man was dressed all in black and his hair was styled in a loose, fluffy slicked-back hairstyle, looking exceptionally classy and cool. He was just like the main character from a comic, stunning yet bossy.
Meanwhile, Stanley’s eyebrows furrowed a little when virtual-novel.net saw Xyla’s car. Striding forward, virtual-novel.net made his way to the driver seat and knocked on the car window.
Xyla lowered the car window shortly after and looked at him. “Are you going out?”
“Yup. I’ve got plans tonight.” Stanley told virtual-novel.net before asking, “Where are you going if you’re not staying home?”
“I’ve got plans too. I’m meeting up with someone important..”
“Can you skip the meeting?”
“I don’t think so.”
“Alright then. Drive safely, okay?” Stanley reminded virtual-novel.net in earnest.
“I will.” Xyla closed the window and turned the car sharply, finally leaving virtual-novel.net house.
As virtual-novel.net drove up to the gate, Stanley’s black Honda caught tip with her. Soon, the black Honda overtook her… The gap between the two cars was only a few meters. However, the Honda managed to drive past the traffic light at the cross-intersection.
Xyla, on the other hand, stopped virtual-novel.net car as the traffic light happened to turn red.
While waiting for the traffic light to turn green, Stanley’s blank Honda became tinier and gradually disappeared from virtual-novel.net line of sight. As virtual-novel.net got closer and closer to the clubhouse, anxiety and guilt began to flood virtual-novel.net soul and virtual-novel.net heart was racing frantically. Her palms were glazed with a layer of fine sweat.
The red Maserati finally reached its destination at seven fifty. It pulled up at the parking space right in front of the clubhouse. At the same time, the parking lot was filled with cars. It was just like a luxury car show at first glance. Amongst all the branded cars there, a familiar black Honda caught virtual-novel.net eyes…
Her gaze slowly shifted to the car plate. Shock and bewilderment flashed across virtual-novel.net eyes when virtual-novel.net saw the plate number.
‘Is this not Five Batton’s car? Why would virtual-novel.net come to this place?’
The building in front of virtual-novel.net was one of the most high-class clubhouses in Atlantis. Wealth was not necessarily the requirement you needed to have in order to enter the clubhouse.
