Ch. 1571..1580

Chapter 1571

Mr. Luciano took a long look at Sebastian Brenand. After that, he shifted his gaze back to Luke Landon's face...

In the next second, Mr. Luciano lifted his hand and gave Luke a hard slap across the face...

Suddenly, everyone became silent.

Pain spread through Luke's face, and he could also taste blood in his mouth...

Luke was thoroughly dumbfounded...

Subconsciously, he covered his left face that had been hit as he looked frightfully at Mr. Luciano. "What is the meaning of this? Why did you hit me?"

Mr. Luciano sneered. "You have no idea who you've messed with today..."

Sebastian remained silent. He continued to exhale smoke in a circular motion, and he seemed completely at ease...

The audience standing around was directly stunned. Then, they all started looking at each other.

What was this unfamiliar man's background?

Why was he able to make Mr. Luciano, a man who held so much power, willingly offend one of the richest men in the world?

Meanwhile, Elaine Oakley's mouth was wide open with an 'O' shape...

It looked like Rachel Wood's man didn't have a simple background.

When Elaine recalled her and her boyfriend's behavior, she suddenly felt remorseful...

This was especially the case when she thought about how she showed off her man in front of Rachel. Elaine felt even more embarrassed... Wasn't Rachel's man much more powerful than Elaine's?

Did Rachel show off?

Luke took in a deep breath before carefully glancing at Sebastian. His entire body was shivering. "Who... Who did I mess with?" Luke's instinct was telling him that he messed with the wrong guy this time.

He had offended someone he shouldn't have!

Mr. Luciano sneered. "He is the heir of the Brenand family in Atlantis."

When Luke heard this, he was even more dumbfounded. "The Brenand family in Atlantis? Is that one of the... Noble families?"

"What else?" Mr. Luciano replied coldly.

In the next second, Luke shivered even more violently...

After that, he quickly kneeled in front of Sebastian and repeatedly bowed apologetically. "I'm sorry... I was wrong. I'm sorry... I was ignorant. Mr. Brenand, please forgive me..."

With that, Luke pulled Elaine close to him and forced her to kneel. "Why aren't you kneeling?"

Although Elaine wasn't willing to do so, she still obediently kneeled due to the difference in stature. Moreover, she started imitating her boyfriend by repeatedly bowing apologetically. "Yes, I'm sorry... Sorry..." "Mr. Brenand, how do you want to deal with these two?" Mr. Luciano asked respectfully.

"To be honest, it's simple. All they have to do is call us Daddy and Mommy, as well as crawl under our legs..." Sebastian said blandly. He wanted them to have a taste of their own medicine.

Right then, Luke and Elaine really felt like crying...

Elaine truly regretted her actions. Why did she say such things earlier? Why was she so arrogant?

The number of people gathered around them was rising...

Many were pointing cameras at them.

Seeing how the crowd was getting larger around them, Elaine and Luke wished they could dig into a hole and never come out.

It was so embarrassing!

Chapter 1572

Chapter 1572

They brought shame to their family...

After finishing his sentence, Sebastian Brenand turned to look at Rachel Wood. Then, realizing that Rachel was wearing a dress, Sebastian lifted his leg and placed it against a large tree nearby...

After that, he pointed below his thighs. "My lady is wearing a dress. It's inconvenient for her to do this. You'll only have to crawl under my leg..."

When the audience around them heard this, they instantly laughed loudly...

Many people had always hated the Landon family.

That was because the Landon family were wealthy but unkind, and they often hurt other people...

Luke Landon's father had killed many people, but he still enjoyed all the glory and wealth at home...

Apart from this, the Landon family also wreaked havoc in this small town, constantly bullying those weaker than them just because they had a major family enterprise.

Now that everyone saw the Landon family's only son being humiliated, they naturally started cheering in their hearts.

"Remember, say Daddy and Mommy first..." Sebastian was someone who always made sure he got his revenge.

Today, he was determined to get his revenge.

When Luke and Elaine Oakley saw this, they quickly yelled simultaneously. "Daddy... Mommy..."

After that, Luke was the first to crawl under Sebastian's leg like a pug as everyone watched...

People standing around them instantly started laughing loudly again.

Suddenly, Elaine felt even more embarrassed...

She felt as if her face had been slapped countless times, and her skin burned.

Elaine really didn't want to crawl under Sebastian like this...

How could she stand the humiliation?

This was especially the case with so many people watching. She couldn't possibly bear it.

However, as much as she didn't want to, she still reluctantly crawled under Sebastian's thighs because of his status...

Right then, the laughter around them grew even louder...

Rachel Wood was also very upset with Elaine and Luke. Hence, she couldn't be bothered to intercede.

Instead, Rachel frowned slightly as she stood silently next to Sebastian...

Although Luke and Elaine had already crawled past Sebastian under his leg, they were still afraid to get up.

The two of them continued to kneel like pugs as they faced Sebastian.

Rachel felt that it was just about enough. She tugged at Sebastian's sleeve. "Forget it..."

At this point, Rachel felt that her anger had already been accounted for. There was no need to go further. Sebastian chuckled. "Alright..."

After that, Sebastian glared at Luke and Elaine. "Get lost..." Sebastian said.

With that, Sebastian quickly wrapped his arm around Rachel's shoulders and escorted her through the crowd.

When Mr. Luciano saw this, he quickly followed over and stood respectfully next to the two of them. "Mr. Brenand... Why did you come to this small town of ours? How long will you be staying here this time? You must not be familiar with this place, right? Do you need a tour guide? I could be your tour guide...

"If there's anything you need here, feel free to let me know. I'll make sure you have everything you need..." Mr. Luciano added.

Chapter 1573

Chapter 1573

"My future in-laws are from this area... A tour guide won't be necessary. I already have one right next to me..." Sebastian Brenand replied calmly. With that, Sebastian affectionately ruffled Rachel Wood's hair.

He also fixed his gaze upon Rachel's face. There was a sense of gentleness in his eyes that seemed to be able to melt everything away. Meanwhile, Rachel lifted her head and looked at Sebastian with an equally gentle gaze as she allowed him to ruffle her hair.

Such gentleness made her seem like an obedient cat. It made Sebastian want to pet her even more.

At this moment, Sebastian suddenly felt as if a certain part of his heart had been melted by this girl again.

He couldn't resist ruffling her hair again.

Mr. Luciano was very jealous when he saw how affectionate the two of them behave toward each other.

Subconsciously, Mr. Luciano looked away. "I wonder, where do your in-laws stay? I should pay them a visit when I'm free..." Clearly, this girl was very much adored by Sebastian. Hence, Mr. Luciano felt that he needed to suck up to her parents. What if she actually became Sebastian's wife?

"That won't be necessary... Alright, get back to work. I'll stroll around with my woman..." Sebastian said blandly.

However, Mr. Luciano didn't seem like he wanted to leave at all. "Mr. Brenand, have you two had dinner? Why don't I take you both somewhere for dinner? There's a new hotpot restaurant here that's especially authentic..."

"There's no need..." With that, Sebastian wrapped his arm around Rachel's shoulders and led her away without a care.

He didn't seem interested in continuing the conversation with Mr. Luciano at all.

Mr. Luciano knew that Sebastian wanted to ignore him. Hence, he reluctantly turned around and let out a long sigh before leaving...

Meanwhile, with Sebastian and Rachel's departure, the surrounding audience also gradually dispersed...

Elaine Oakley and Luke Landon were both thoroughly humiliated today. They hung their heads low.

After looking around, Elaine was the first to get into Luke's car.

However, Luke didn't get into the car. Instead, he quickly approached Mr. Luciano. "Mr. Luciano... How powerful is that man from the Brenand family? What usually happens to people who have offended him?" Luke was genuinely afraid that Sebastian wouldn't give up that easily...

He was afraid that Sebastian would still cause him trouble after returning to Atlantis.

If Luke ended up getting his family involved, it'd be over for him!

"He is very powerful. Based on what I know, not a single person had a good ending after offending him..." Mr. Luciano said blandly.

Luke instantly felt even more panicked after hearing this. "Mr. Luciano... It seems to me that you're quite familiar with him. Why don't you help me out... Find out where he lives on my behalf. Then, I'll personally visit him and apologize to him...

"I can even kneel in front of him for three days and three nights... As long as he forgives me..." Luke added.

"I'm afraid apologizing won't work after you've offended him... A few of the people who offended him in the past ended up going bankrupt with their family businesses... All the best to you..." Mr. Luciano said. "Mr. Luciano, you must help me. You're on such good terms with my father... You can't just watch idly by," Luke said.

"I really can't help you with this... That man doesn't even think much of me..." Mr. Luciano said before walking away...

Mr. Luciano didn't want to get involved in this mess between Luke and Sebastian at all.

If he accidentally made Sebastian feel dissatisfied, he'd have to suffer along with Luke.

Chapter 1573

Chapter 1574

Chapter 1574

Although Mr. Luciano was on good terms with the Landon family, one could only count on themselves in times of crisis...

When Luke Landon saw Mr. Luciano's reaction, he felt like dying...

Hearing this from the car, Elaine Oakley quickly got out of the car and ran in front of Luke. She grasped Luke's hand tightly with both her hands. "Don't be like this. What if nothing happens?

"I know where Rachel Wood lives. I think they're probably staying with her parents. I'll take you to where he is staying, and we can personally apologize to him there... Ahh..." Before Elaine could finish speaking, Luke lifted his hand and slapped her hard across the face...

In the next second, Luke started yelling at her coldly. "It's all your fault, b*tch... If it weren't for you, how would I have ended up offending the heir of the Brenand family?"

Elaine knew she was at fault. Hence, she immediately became quiet and didn't dare to say a word.

"The conflict between you and them wasn't as simple as you described at all, was it? You must have been the one who started it. They only said those nasty things because you made them upset first. Isn't that so?" Luke continued to ask...

Now, he was beginning to feel that Elaine had fooled him....

With their status, why would they mock Elaine for no reason as soon as they saw her?

Luke could only blame himself for placing too much trust in this b*tch.

Elaine was tongue-tied when she heard this...

Suddenly, she didn't know how to make herself sound innocent anymore...

Sensing Elaine's reaction, Luke immediately felt even more certain about his thoughts.

Luke lifted his hand once again and slapped Elaine hard across the face. "You b*tch. I knew this was the case... I'm telling you. You'd better tell me exactly what happened...

"Otherwise... I'll make sure you pay for it... Even if you don't tell me what Mr. Brenand and his woman did to you, I'll find a way to ask him...

"That's why you'd best explain clearly to me..." Luke yelled coldly once again.

On top of the already cold evening breezes, Luke's attitude made Elaine feel that the world was cold to the bone...

After taking a deep breath, Elaine lowered her head and told Luke everything.

That was because she knew that there was no way she could fool him with things like this.

If Luke wanted to get to the bottom of things, he would naturally find a way to ask Sebastian Brenand and Rachel Wood...

Hence, it would be better if she was honest about it.

After hearing Elaine out, Luke became even angrier. He lifted his hand and slapped Elaine again.

He slapped her even harder this time compared to the last two slaps...

Elaine fell to the ground after being slapped.

Her hands landed on the ground first. With her skin bruised, it was indescribably painful.

However, Elaine didn't even dare to make a sound...

She didn't want to ruin her relationship with her boyfriend because of this.

After all, he was the son of the richest man around here.

She had put in a lot of effort to get close to this person.

After taking a deep breath, Elaine resisted the awful feelings in her heart and slowly stood up. She cried while begging for forgiveness. "Sorry. I was wrong. Honey, let me off the hook... Please forgive me... "I'll help you. Let's go and apologize together. I'm sure we'll be fine..." Elaine added.

"Elaine Oakley, it's over between the two of us!" Luke yelled.

Elaine instantly felt worse after hearing this....

She hugged Luke tightly and tried her best to calm him down. "Sorry. Honestly, I'll help you... Please forgive me. I won't do it again..."

"There won't be a next time... I can't keep a b*tch who likes causing trouble like you around..." Luke said.

Chapter 1575

Chapter 1575

Luke Landon never knew that the woman by his side was this kind of person...

If he had known earlier, he would've gotten rid of her long ago.

Seeing that Luke was firmly determined, Elaine Oakley felt utterly thrown off...

Her heart started aching painfully.

Elaine immediately hugged Luke even more tightly. "Sorry... I don't want to break up. I really can't take it..." Elaine cried out.

How could she easily let go of such a good cash cow?

It was impossible!

She refused to let other women replace her...

Luke sneered and pushed Elaine away. "Get lost..."

Elaine was frightened. Her eyes filled with terror, and she didn't dare to get close to him again. She could only stand still as she cried. "Weren't you going to apologize to Mr. Brenand? Who would take you there if I went away?"

Luke sneered. "In that case, get lost after you take me there..."

Elaine nodded gently...

Elaine knew that Luke was still angry. Hence, she didn't want to continue the discussion on breaking up with him.

She thought of talking to him after Sebastian Brenand had forgiven him...

Once the matter was resolved, Luke would stop feeling angry. His mood would also get better.

When the time came, she'd think of ways to seduce him. Perhaps he would agree to not breaking up then...

"Take me there right away..." Luke ordered coldly.

Elaine nodded frantically like a pug. "I'll take you there now..."

***

After Sebastian and Rachel Wood finished strolling around, they returned to Rachel's home. When they arrived downstairs, they saw Luke and Elaine standing in front of the building from afar. Their shadows were cast long under the streetlights during dusk.

Despite the cold autumn evening, Elaine wore very thin layers of clothing. She kept shivering as she stood there.

When Sebastian and Rachel saw them, they frowned.

Those unhappy memories began replaying in their minds.

"What rotten luck!" Sebastian cursed under his breath.

Rachel didn't say anything. However, her frown grew even deeper...

Rachel knew very clearly why these two had found their way here.

They wanted to be forgiven by Sebastian so that he wouldn't do anything to exact revenge on them.

Luke and Elaine soon noticed Sebastian and Rachel.

In the next second, the two of them ran up to Sebastian and Rachel. After that, they lowered their heads.

"Mr. Brenand... Sorry. I should really apologize for how I offended you... However, to be honest, there's a reason why I did those things... It's all because of this b*tch next to me...

"Did you know? This b*tch lied to my face. She didn't tell me what she did to you and your woman.

"She only told me that she politely greeted the two of you. However, you two ended up mocking her... "How could I tolerate that as a man? Of course, I couldn't. Right? That's why what happened, happened.

"If you must blame anyone, blame this b*tch of a girlfriend that I have.

"To make it up to you, I've already decided to break up with this b*tch," Luke said.

Chapter 1576

Chapter 1576

Luke Landon spoke respectfully. However, there was a look of panic and a sense of urgency in his eyes.

To him, women were merely like clothes.

He could still buy a better one if he lost the one he had.

However, if his family business was destroyed, he would never be able to get it back.

Rachel Wood had expected Luke to say all this...

However, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart when she heard him say these things in front of her...

It turned out that love was so fragile in the face of money.

Elaine was utterly shocked. She never would've expected Luke to be this direct with his words in front of Sebastian Brenand and Rachel Wood.

In fact, Luke didn't even care about her feelings or reputation.

Even if this was how he thought, he shouldn't have said such things before Elaine's ex-classmate, right?

What kind of joke would she turn into if word got out?

However, she didn't dare to utter a single word because of Luke and Sebastian's status.

Elaine could only stand next to them as her tears continued to fall...

"You'd willingly throw your woman under the bus for your benefit. You sure are something..." Sebastian sneered. People like Luke were those he looked down on the most.

No matter how much of a jerk Sebastian used to be, he would never sacrifice his woman for his benefit.

Luke continued to speak with his head lowered respectfully. "What are women for anyway? If they're nice, we keep them. If they're not, for example, this b*tch here, they shouldn't be kept... "She's so arrogant and ruthless. She deserves a slap..." Luke said coldly.

With that, he lifted his hand and slapped Elaine hard across the face once again...

Elaine's face was already horribly swollen. But, because of this slap, the swollenness became even worse.

Right then, Elaine felt that her ego had been completely shattered in front of Rachel.

Her pride had been trampled all over by Luke until nothing was left.

To be honest, Elaine wanted to give Luke a hard slap and never see him again.

However, she didn't dare to. She couldn't let go of those branded skincare products, branded purses, branded cosmetic goods, luxury cars, and luxury villas...

It was easy to go from thrifty to a lavish lifestyle, but the opposite was tough.

Elaine resisted the urge once again after thinking about these things...

While covering her face as she continued crying, Elaine pitifully looked at Sebastian. "Sorry, Mr. Brenand... I'm truly sorry..."

After saying that, Elaine kneeled in front of Rachel and hugged Rachel's legs tightly with both arms. "Rachel, we used to be classmates. You must advise Mr. Brenand not to harm the entire Landon family because of my boyfriend....

"If you still feel angry, you can kill me or skin me alive as you wish..." Elaine added.

Rachel felt mixed emotions when she saw how petty Elaine seemed.

Although Elaine's behavior was unbelievable to a fault, Rachel could still understand why she was doing it after thinking about it carefully.

After all, who would willingly let a cash cow like Luke get away?

Elaine held everything in and continued behaving so pettily only because she didn't want to give up the struggle yet.

She still had hopes of remaining as Luke's girlfriend.

Women like Elaine were pitiful and pathetic.

Rachel let out a long sigh. "We have already come to a full stop on this matter. That means everything has already ended at that point... Don't worry...

Chapter 1577

Chapter 1577

Rachel Wood wasn't the type of person who, given an inch, would ask for a mile.

Rachel always felt that people should be forgiven whenever possible.

Moderation was the key for grudges like this.

"Really?" Elaine Oakley had a look of disbelief in her eyes.

Seeing that Rachel had spoken, Sebastian Brenand wrapped his arm tightly around her shoulders. He then glared coldly at Elaine Oakley, who was on the ground. "Really. Now, get lost..." Sebastian said annoyedly.

Elaine immediately cried out of joy when she heard this...

Since Sebastian was willing to stop at this point, it meant Elaine still had hopes of salvaging her status.

Luke Landon let out a long sigh next to Elaine. After that, he glared coldly at Elaine before walking away.

When Elaine saw this, she quickly ran after him.

Luke tried his best to get away from Elaine, but Elaine stuck to him like glue.

Regardless of whether Luke hit her or yelled at her, she didn't retaliate...

Rachel let out a long sigh as she watched. "I guess one can do anything he wants if he has money..." Rachel said as she frowned slightly.

"Aren't rich people like you way too cold-blooded when it comes to relationships?" Rachel added.

Sebastian immediately hugged Rachel tightly by her shoulders when he heard this. He looked nervously at her as he raised three of his fingers like he was swearing an oath. "What do you mean 'us' rich people? Can you not identify me as the same type of person as that guy?"

"I, Sebastian Brenand, hereby swear that I will never treat you like this all of my life... If I had to choose between you or personal benefits, I'd certainly choose you...

"If I go against the oath, I'll be struck by lightning and die. I'll choke to death from eating food or drinking water. I'll get run over by a car and die. I'll even get poisoned by simply breathing..." Henry added. Before Sebastian could finish speaking, Rachel quickly lifted her hand and covered his mouth. "I was only casually speaking. Why are you so nervous?" she asked with a helpless expression on her face. Rachel found Sebastian extremely adorable right now...

However, Sebastian still behaved seriously. He gently pulled Rachel's hand away. "It's only because I'm afraid you might think of some nonsense after seeing what happened today. What if you think of me as the same kind of person as that worthless guy?"

"What if you think that way and feel insecure? What if you run off? What would I do?" The more Sebastian said, the more aggrieved he seemed...

He couldn't forget the pain he felt from losing Rachel that one time...

Now, he absolutely wouldn't allow himself to lose Rachel a second time...

For the very same reason, he behaved as if he were walking on thin ice, making sure he protected Rachel in every way he could, both physically and mentally...

Rachel immediately felt a sense of warmth spread in her heart when she heard this.

Despite the chilly autumn night, her heart felt warm on the inside...

Elaine followed Luke around like a dog, eventually following him into his car...

After they both got into the car, Luke turned on the car engine. He then stepped on the accelerator and drove away from Rachel's neighborhood.

Elaine instantly felt much more relaxed when she saw that Luke wasn't trying to get rid of her anymore.

Elaine thought that Luke probably wouldn't break up with her...

Throughout the journey, Luke didn't utter a single word. However, he kept driving faster and faster.

It was completely silent in the car, and there was an eerily cold ambiance.

Just like this, Luke drove out onto the freeway.

Elaine's eyes filled with confusion when she saw this. "Darling, why did you get onto the freeway?"

However, Luke still didn't say anything. Instead, he continued to drive faster...

Chapter 1578

Chapter 1578

Soon, the car made it onto the freeway.

After that, the car sped forward at an insane speed of 180 kilometers per hour.

Elaine Oakley felt a little frightened by how fast the car was going.

Subconsciously, Elaine reached for the handle next to her. "Darling... What exactly are you doing? If you're angry, you can scold me or do anything you want... Don't drive fast like this to vent. It's very dangerous..."

However, Luke Landon still didn't say a word...

Right then, Luke was like an emotionless driving machine.

After driving for thirty kilometers on the freeway, Luke abruptly stopped the car by the road. After that, he pushed Elaine out of the car...

Before Elaine could react, he stepped on the accelerator and drove away...

Having been pushed out of the car so suddenly, Elaine had painful bruises all over her body.

It was cold and dark on the freeway since it was late at night...

Elaine felt extremely afraid.

Ignoring the pain all over her body, Elaine quickly crawled onto her feet and immediately called Luke on the phone.

Luke spoke coldly before Elaine could utter a word. "Stop following me. I want to break up with you. Do you hear me? If I see you following me again, I won't only dump you on the freeway. I'll dump you into the

ocean...

"B*tch, don't ever come looking for me again. You cheap piece of scrap. Who do you think you are?

"You're just a toy to me..." Luke said.

With that, Luke hung up the phone...

Elaine was left with the cold beeping sound of her phone.

Nearby, cars kept speeding past her...

The strong breezes made Elaine feel even colder.

It was highly dangerous for one to be walking along the freeway late at night...

If Elaine weren't careful, she'd be hit by the cars driving toward her at high speed...

If someone didn't want to break up with his girlfriend, he wouldn't leave his girlfriend behind on a freeway late at night. It was such a dangerous place.

Elaine knew that it was truly over for her....

At this moment, Elaine felt sad, hopeless, and terrified...

She was sad and hopeless because her cash cow was truly gone....

She was terrified because she felt terrified that she might accidentally get run over by fast-moving cars and get crushed into pulp.

Elaine immediately called the cops when she thought of this...

Once the call went through, she quickly informed the police officer of her current location.

After that, she started crying her eyes out as she leaned against the safety railing...

Suddenly, she could hear thunder...

It began raining cats and dogs. Although Elaine felt physically cold, her heart felt even colder...

She truly regretted her behavior tonight. Nothing would have happened if she hadn't shown off in front of Rachel Wood or got herself involved in a conflict with Rachel and Sebastian Brenand. "Ahh!" With nobody around her, Elaine screamed under the night sky like a mad person...

While Elaine was soaked in helpless despair, Rachel and Sebastian had finished taking a shower and fallen asleep next to each other.

As for how things ended for Elaine, neither of them cared...

***

At the same time, things were calm and peaceful on the other side of Atlantis...

On this calm and serene evening, the moon was bright, and stars were few and far between.

In the huge master bedroom, Xyla Quest was sleeping soundly in Stanley Batton's arms.

Right then, she was dreaming.

In the dream, she wore a white robe, and she had the hairstyle of someone who belonged to ancient times. She found herself in a mist-filled forest.

A nine-tailed fox, whose entire body was covered in blood, gasped for air by her feet. It was barely able to breathe.

Chapter 1579

Chapter 1579

When Xyla Quest saw this, she was overwhelmed with feelings of empathy. She picked up the nine-tailed fox. After that, she searched everywhere for herbs to tend to the nine-tailed fox's injuries... After bandaging its wounds, Xyla was quickly transported elsewhere in her dream.

In this dream, she was drinking ceremonial wine with a handsome man to officiate their wedding.

Xyla could see that they were in a red room from the background.

It looked like a room for newlyweds.

Xyla and the man were both wearing traditional red robes...

They both had hairstyles of people during ancient times.

Right then, it appeared to be their first night together as a married couple...

After drinking the wine, Xyla suddenly saw a golden light flashing before her eyes.

Immediately after that, the man in front of her fell to the ground. Seemingly in pain, he wrapped his arms around himself and started rolling non-stop on the floor...

In the next second, nine white tails appeared behind the man...

Frightened, Xyla immediately retrieved a sword hidden under the red bed. She started hacking at the man's tails with the sword...

After that, the man's tails were all cut off. His entire body was covered in blood before he disappeared completely...

After that, another golden light flashed before her eyes.

Xyla was suddenly woken up from her dream.

Once she had woken up, she still felt trapped in her dream earlier.

She still felt like the bride in that dream.

Her heart was filled with the terror of personally witnessing her groom suddenly growing nine tails.

Xyla's heart was beating extremely fast...

Apart from feeling afraid, Xyla also couldn't help but feel curious.

Why did she have a dream like this?

These two dreams seemed to be connected too...

Xyla was highly suspicious that the nine-tailed fox she met in the first dream was the groom who appeared in the second dream on the night of his wedding...

Why exactly did Xyla have strange dreams like these? She really couldn't quite figure it out...

Could it have been because she watched too many videos of supernatural incidents on Weibo?

Over the past two days, Xyla had unintentionally followed a supernatural publisher on Weibo. On and off, she watched many documentaries related to paranormal incidents... Xyla figured this was probably the reason.

Perhaps, she dreamed about things that were on her mind during the day...

However, these dreams felt a little too real.

Right then, Xyla kept replaying the contents of what she saw in those two dreams.

The fear she felt toward the groom, who suddenly grew nine tails, was still there.

After taking a deep breath, Xyla tried very hard to forget about all this. However, she simply couldn't.

All of this seemed to have put down roots in her mind...

She couldn't get rid of them no matter what...

After tossing and turning for a long while, Xyla was still immersed in those two dreams...

She only gradually fell asleep out of exhaustion when dawn arrived.

However, as soon as Xyla fell asleep, she started dreaming again...

She dreamed about scenes related to the nine-tailed fox again.

She wore a traditional white robe in the dream and was tied to a pillar in a dark cave.

The groom from the second dream wore a long, black robe while he stood in front of her. "I'm telling you. If you don't marry me, I promise I will kill Connor Murphy..." The man said.

In the dream, Xyla's heart was filled with hatred toward that man in the black robe...

"Fine... I'll marry you..." Xyla said through gritted teeth.

Chapter 1580

Chapter 1580

As soon as Xyla Quest was done speaking in her dream, she suddenly opened her eyes wide in reality...

Only when she opened her eyes did she realize that she was dreaming again...

Moreover, her third dream seemed to be connected to the two dreams from before...

However, Xyla couldn't understand what exactly was going on collectively...

Xyla felt tortured by her dreams the entire night.

Due to her poor sleep quality, Xyla was dizzy. It felt terrible.

Her mind also felt cluttered. She couldn't think clearly at all...

Right then, Stanley Batton, who was next to her, slowly opened his eyes.

When Stanley saw that Xyla was awake, he immediately extended his arm and pulled her into his embrace. "Up already?"

"Yeah... Good morning, Honey..." Xyla said as she nodded gently.

"Good morning..." Having just woken up, Stanley's voice sounded gentle and lazy, but it sure as hell was pleasant to listen to. "What do you want for breakfast?" Stanley asked.

"Dad asked us to go home for breakfast this morning... It's almost time. Let's get ready and leave..." Xyla said.

"Hmm. Did you sleep well last night?" Stanley asked.

Xyla shook her head. "No. I kept having dreams..."

"What kind of dreams were they?" Stanley immediately asked earnestly when he heard this.

"Very strange dreams..." Xyla said.

With that, Xyla told Stanley all about her three dreams.

After hearing what Xyla said, Stanley chuckled dismissively. After that, he lifted his hand and ruffled Xyla's hair. "Is it because you've been watching too many videos about supernatural incidents recently?" Stanley was aware that Xyla had followed a supernatural publisher recently...

That was because Xyla would sometimes share with Stanley the stuff she saw.

Xyla nodded helplessly. "Perhaps..."

Stanly smiled a little. "Alright. Stop thinking about nonsense... Sleep a little longer. I'll tell Dad that we won't drop by this morning..."

However, Xyla immediately crawled up lazily when she heard this. "Don't do that. Dad said he'll be personally making some nice food for me. It's not easy for him to prepare these things. If we don't drop by, he'll feel sad..."

Stanley nodded helplessly after hearing this. "Deal... In that case, you'll come back to sleep after breakfast..."

Xyla shook her head. "No way... I must head to the office. After I reach the office, I'll take a nap when I'm free." Stanley frowned a little. "You should just stay home to rest today. A pregnant woman needs sufficient rest..."

However, Xyla smiled slightly. "Alright, don't be so dramatic. I know myself well enough. Hurry up, stop wasting time talking. I command you to get out of bed and accompany me home for breakfast..." "Affirmative..." Stanley replied.

After Xyla and Stanley got out of bed and cleaned themselves up, Xyla quickly put on some light make-up and a set of pink Chanel clothing. She then left the house with Stanley...

Xyla was still in the early stage of pregnancy, and her tummy wasn't showing yet. Thus, she looked no different from a teenage girl.
