Very soon, music began to play. Singers proceeded to get on stage to sing and perform.
Meanwhile, Stanley kept his arm around Xyla’s waist. The two of them ate and chatted, occasionally feeding each other as per usual.
Not long after, guests began approaching Stanley and Xyla and surrounded them as if they were celebrities. All of them continuously complimented Xyla and Stanley. In fact, the performances on stage were nowhere near as attractive as the man who stood next to Xyla.
“Xyla, you are very lucky for finding a good husband like Stanley.”
“I’ve felt how noble you were since the moment you walked through the door, very much unlike other ordinary people. I wasn’t wrong, Master Batton.”
“Master Batton, you and Xyla are a perfect match. I’ve met Xyla lots of times, and we’re considered friends.”
Hearing this, Xyla immediately turned to look at the woman who claimed to be virtual-novel.net friend. She remembered that this person had not long ago made snippy comments at virtual-novel.net along with Bailey Ronson and the rest.
When Xyla thought about this, virtual-novel.net found it very ironic.
Sometimes, people behaved very realistically.
Although Xyla felt disgusted, virtual-novel.net continued to smile and politely answered these people’s questions. Stanley, on the other hand, remained cold and distant. Occasionally, virtual-novel.net would nod at these people politely. Despite being surrounded by a group of people, Stanley still stood out from the rest with his towering height of over 180cm and his imposing aura.
When Jeremy noticed his daughter and son-in-law were the centers of attention, virtual-novel.net felt even more joyful. He never thought that his daughter would get married to Dragon Group’s heir.
Xyla was much more capable than virtual-novel.net ever could be. With someone like Xyla as the Quest family’s heir, Jeremy had nothing to worry about for the family business’s growth.
Now, everyone else present paled in comparison to Xyla and Stanley. They were the most attractive couple in the ballroom, and they outshone everyone else.
Taking all this in, Emily scratched virtual-novel.net chest annoyedly as virtual-novel.net drank a glass of alcohol. She wished virtual-novel.net could tear Xyla apart right there and then.
Why was Xyla always so lucky? Why?
Prior to this, Xyla had already become fat and ugly, and virtual-novel.net had hit rock bottom. Why was virtual-novel.net able to get virtual-novel.net looks back? Why was virtual-novel.net able to be with Dragon Group’s heir and achieve so much in life?
Why was Xyla always in the limelight, while Emily herself could only ever be on the sidelines?
Why was Emily’s significant other always inferior to Xyla’s?
Why was god so unfair?
Likewise, Tom Sullivan, who sat next to Emily, felt equally upset while looking at Stanley.
What was the worst feeling in the world?
To Tom, it was the fact that not only did his ex-girlfriend leave virtual-novel.net and forgot everything about him, but virtual-novel.net lived a far better life than virtual-novel.net did and found a better man than virtual-novel.net was. Moreover, the man virtual-novel.net was now with could even determine whether Tom could live another day. Now, as soon as Stanley said the word, the Sullivan family would be done for!
Tony Sullivan, who sat next to Tom, looked extremely upset. In fact, his lips had already turned purple from the rage virtual-novel.net felt inside. His fists were clenched tightly as the veins on his hands became visibly tense.
If it weren’t for the fact that so many people were around, Tony would have slapped Bailey hard across virtual-novel.net face.
