Zack Cassidy woke up instantaneously. He turned on the light and stole a glance at the clock. It was already ten o’clock at night.
‘This bastard..!’
“Yes, Fifth Master!” Zack nodded respectfully before jumping down from the bed with a heart full of resentment.
On the other hand, Stanley had gone to some of the bars and hotels that Xyla often went to after virtual-novel.net drove away from his villa.
As virtual-novel.net drove, virtual-novel.net could not help but started laughing at himself. Never in his life had virtual-novel.net been so crazy for anyone, or anything, not even once since virtual-novel.net was a child. He felt very much like a blind, headless fly right now, roaming through the streets, not knowing where to go. The person virtual-novel.net was at that very moment was akin to an immature boy who fell in love for the first time, doing all virtual-novel.net could do for his first love.
When Stanley was drowning in his deep thoughts, it started to drizzle. Under the drizzle, the black Honda continued to roam between the streets, traveling through the city.
Meanwhile at Georgie’s house, Xyla was still tossing and turning restlessly on virtual-novel.net bed, unable to fall asleep.
The pitter-patter of rain outside of the house flowed from the window into virtual-novel.net ears, causing virtual-novel.net to feel even more annoyed. Hence, virtual-novel.net buried virtual-novel.net entire body under the thick blanket in order to make herself feel a little more comfortable. Try as virtual-novel.net might, it ended up being a sleepless night.
The possibilities that Georgie had proposed earlier kept flashing across virtual-novel.net mind. Various kinds of thoughts tore virtual-novel.net apart. Breathing became difficult and virtual-novel.net felt like virtual-novel.net was constantly out of breath.
Hours later, the air outside was getting cold.
The streets were starting to fill with heavy traffic and the city was busy once more.
Ding Dong… Ding Dong…
The doorbell rang.
The sudden noise pierced through the darkness and penetrated virtual-novel.net eardrums.
The sky was not even fully bright yet, indicating that it was still very early in the morning.
Who could it be? Was it him?
Georgie was making breakfast at the moment. Upon hearing the doorbell, virtual-novel.net strode out of the kitchen and quickened virtual-novel.net footsteps to the door, peeping through the peephole.
It was Stanley Batton who was standing outside the door. He looked extremely exhausted as if virtual-novel.net had not slept all night.
Realizing the visitor was actually Stanley, virtual-novel.net utter dismay reflected in virtual-novel.net eyes.
How did virtual-novel.net know Xyla is here?
She told Stanley that Xyla was not around last night, did virtual-novel.net not?
Pulling open the door, Georgie glared at virtual-novel.net with irritation written all over virtual-novel.net face. “What are you doing here?”
“I’m here to see Xyla.”
“She… She’s not here. ” She clearly remembered Xyla’s reminder from last night, that virtual-novel.net did not want to see him.
However, Stanley straight away stepped into the house without saying anything. Putting on the slippers, virtual-novel.net made his way to rooms and began to search every one of them.
Finally, virtual-novel.net found Xyla.
His heart eventually returned to its original, peaceful state and the panic under his eyes disappeared.
On the contrary, Xyla’s face went sour as soon as virtual-novel.net saw him. “What are you doing here?”
“I owe you an explanation so I’m here to clarify myself.” Closing the door behind him, virtual-novel.net slowly approached Xyla and sat beside her. “Well, I actually knew you’re here all the time but I didn’t want to disturb your rest. Therefore, I waited downstairs all night long.”
He figured out virtual-novel.net was here around one o’clock in the midnight. Without hesitation, virtual-novel.net drove all the way here, as fast as virtual-novel.net could. When virtual-novel.net was about to go upstairs, virtual-novel.net noticed that the lights in the house were off and virtual-novel.net was afraid that virtual-novel.net had fallen asleep. On second thought, virtual-novel.net gave up the idea of intruding the house at that hour because virtual-novel.net did not want to disturb her.
As a result, virtual-novel.net sat in the car for the whole night, waiting for virtual-novel.net outside of the condo without any complaints. Upon hearing that, Xyla’s heart softened right away and mixed emotions began to mount up in virtual-novel.net heart once again.
