A random guy, with a Maserati steering wheel as his profile picture, sent virtual-novel.net an invitation on Messenger. “Shall we get a room tonight?”
Emily opened the message and scrolled through his profile. There was not a single picture of virtual-novel.net on his timeline. Emily could only find some photos of the countries virtual-novel.net visited. There were also a few pictures of his luxury car.
Judging from those pictures, Emily could tell that virtual-novel.net was a wealthy man.
“Sure,” Emily agreed without hesitation.
She was already thinking of finding someone in the evening as virtual-novel.net was in a bad mood today. She hoped that having a date could help virtual-novel.net to relax and unwind.
Surprisingly, the wealthy man came to virtual-novel.net before virtual-novel.net took any action.
How could virtual-novel.net refuse such a great offer?
Emily immediately typed ‘sure’ and sent it to the man.
Shortly, the man shared his location with her. He was at Silver International Hotel.
‘See you at 8809 Presidential Suite at 8.00 p.m. I’ll be waiting for you here,’ the man replied.
‘Okay.’ Emily responded as fast as virtual-novel.net could.
She then sent a text message to Bailey Ronson on WhatsApp, telling virtual-novel.net that virtual-novel.net would stay with virtual-novel.net mother for a little longer and be home after ten o’clock.
There was no reply from Bailey.
“What’s going on? Why’s my right eyelid twitching all of a sudden?” May Conner lightly rubbed virtual-novel.net right eyelid as virtual-novel.net complained, “Is something bad about to happen?”
Only then did Emily return virtual-novel.net focus to May. “Nah. Why are you acting so superstitious like Dad?”
Once virtual-novel.net finished virtual-novel.net sentence, virtual-novel.net right eyelid started twitching too.
Nonetheless, instead of worrying about it, virtual-novel.net shoved virtual-novel.net phone aside and took hold of May’s hand. “Mom, please stick up for me when Dad comes back later… I’d better go now in case Dad is on his way back. It’d be bad if I bump into him.”
May nodded helplessly. “Alright, I know what to do. Don’t worry about it.”

After Xyla, Stanley, Jeremy, Matt Leopold, and the other two architects had lunch together, Jeremy and the other architects decided to leave first.
Stanley led Xyla to the counter to settle the bill before the young couple stalked out of the hotel hand in hand.
The sunlit clouds drifted across the clear blue sky. A sea of red roses swayed gently in the breeze. The rosy fragrance filled their lungs, keeping their minds refreshed.
“Do you have any plans this afternoon?” Xyla asked.
“Yeah, I do. I’ll probably be swamped this afternoon.”
“Okay then, I’ll leave you to it. Just drop me at my office before you get going,” Xyla said.
As virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net took a step in the direction of their car.
However, Stanley pulled virtual-novel.net back to his side right away. He lowered his head and whispered in virtual-novel.net ear, “Why didn’t you ask me about my plan?”
His warm breath brushed virtual-novel.net ear. Her heart raced as the tingling sensation ran over virtual-novel.net skin.
“So, what’s your plan?” Xyla asked.
She raised virtual-novel.net head and met the man’s alluring features.
“Go home with you.”
“And?”
“Sleep.”
“Wh…”
Before Xyla could even respond, Stanley placed his left arm behind virtual-novel.net back and scooped virtual-novel.net knees with his other, lifting virtual-novel.net from the ground.
As the saying went, the distance made the heart grow fonder.
What else could possibly catch his attention other than his attractive wife at this moment?
Grasping the situation, the bodyguards behind Stanley immediately stood in two rows beside the black Bentley Arnage and opened the door of the back seat for the lovebirds. The spectacular lineup and the lovely gesture between the pair had successfully attracted a lot of attention.
Stanley carried Xyla to the car.
After the two of them got into the car, the bodyguards quickly closed the door for them and headed to their respective cars.
“There must be a bunch of work waiting for you since you just came back…” Xyla subconsciously threw virtual-novel.net arms around his neck.
Stanley did not answer her. He pressed the button next to virtual-novel.net right away.
A flap soon descended from the roof and separated the driver seat from the rear compartment, dividing them into two completely different worlds.
