Ch. 1831..1840
Chapter 1831 Chapter 1831 Xyla Quest's hair had a slight rosy fragrance to it, and it repeatedly rubbed against Stanley Batton's chin, chest, and neck. Stanley began feeling tingling sensations in his body.
With such a beautiful woman in his arms, he began to feel aroused to the point of distraction.
Sensing his arousal, Xyla immediately blushed. "Do you want me to help you?” "It's okay, I don't want you to get too tired. I'll go take a shower," Stanley said before getting up to enter the bathroom.
Xyla knew very well what he'd gone to do.
Suddenly, her face turned extremely red once again.
Ever since she'd gotten pregnant, Stanley became even more affectionate toward her.
He treated her ever so gently and did everything he could to look after her.
He even suppressed his natural urges as a man.
Xyla could see everything this man was doing for her.
She believed that her husband was truly perfect, and there was nothing for her to pick on.
She was lucky to meet someone who was so considerate toward her.
After a languorous stretch, Xyla grabbed her phone and unlocked it, opening the Weibo app.
Artists from X Entertainment and members of Team XS took up quite a few spots on the list of hot topics.
Xyla's businesses had been doing very well in both the entertainment and e-sports industries.
Artists from X Entertainment were getting increasingly popular. They would appear on the list of hot topics every few days. It was as if they had booked slots on that list all year round.
Meanwhile, as Team XS's performance improved by winning last season's championship, their y suddenly skyrock Whether in terms of popularity or talent, Team XS was the best in the entire LPL region, if not the world.
They had proved to be undefeatable.
Each team member had, in turn, become a celebrity. Likewise, they also appeared on the list of hot topics every few days throughout the year.
The hot topic about Team XS's members today was rather interesting.
Hot topic number sixteen, '#Team XS's members say they miss their boss#'.
Hot topic number seventeen, '#Alex said they're children abandoned by their mother#'.
Xyla couldn't resist laughing when she read these titles.
Xyla clicked on hot topic number sixteen. It was full of livestream videos from Team XS's members.
In each video, they expressed how much they missed their boss, as they hadn't seen her for a long time.
wasn't expressive with his esed sad, even Alex, who belongs to en.swno t commented on feeling abandoned by their mother Xyla couldn't resist smiling a little as she felt her heart expand with warmth.
These boys were very entertaining.
Xyla continued to read further, perusing over the comments from their fans.
She could sense how jealous they were through the screen— "Hmph! I'm so jealous of the person Alex misses... he likes his boss."
"I want to be missed by them too! Arghh..."
"If Xyla isn't willing to visit you, I am. Give me your address, I'll come and give you all my attention."
Chapter 1832 Chapter 1832 "I envy Xyla. She's constantly missed by so many handsome men."
"I envy Xyla, too. In fact, I'm a little jealous of her."
"All the handsome guys I like are associated with Xyla in one way or another. She is so lucky."
These days, Xyla would only briefly go through comments on the internet.
She would never take them too seriously.
After browsing around for a while, Xyla closed the topic and turned her attention to current news.
Approximately an hour later, Stanley Batton came out from the bathroom, fresh from his shower.
He dried his hair with a towel, letting his black hair naturally fall against his face. There was a laid-back vibe to his overall look.
Stanley had nothing on except for a white bath towel, baring his perfectly sculpted body for her to see.
He looked lean even with clothes on, but now, his fit physique was even more apparent. Despite seeing him naked countless times, Xyla still couldn't resist the temptation. Stanley approached his wife slowly, his expression instantly softening from his usual one of indifference. "What would you like to eat?"
"Hmm, I want sunny side-ups, a salad, and an egg-and-ham sandwich," Xyla replied.
She had just woken up, and she wanted a simple breakfast.
"Okay, I'll get it prepared," he said.
Xyla nodded. "Thank you, Darling."
"Anything for you," he answered before leaving the room.
Once he'd left, Xyla leisurely got up and entered the bathroom to freshen up.
Then, she put on her makeup before making her way to her huge closet. She chose a long, white, knitted blouse that covered her belly. There was an even longer white lace dress under it.
Xyla looked very much like a fairy.
Being naturally thin, she had not gained any weight despite being expectant, so her pregnancy had not become apparent yet.
When she dressed like this, she still looked exactly like how she used to before becoming pregnant.
The laced hems also made her feel very feminine.
After ensuring that her innerwear was fine, Xyla chose another wool coat that had a cute collar.
It was tight-fitting for the upper body and slightly loose for the bottom half.
Xyla looked flattering in that outfit.
The laces around her dress happened to be exposed outside the coat, making Xyla appear remarkably gentle.
After putting on a white wool laced hat, Xyla selected a pair of white boots.
The boots had thick heels of only two to three centimeters in height, making them comfortable and safe.
From her reflection in the mirror, she looked like a white peony on the mountains. A flower meant to be admired from afar as if evena simple touch could taint her beauty.
After feeling satisfied with her appearance, Xyla walked over to another wall displayed with various purses to select one.
Most of the purses were from Hermes in various colors.
To complement her outfit, Xyla chose a one-of-a-kind, customized design from Hermes. It was a silver, crocodile-skinned purse worth up to tens of millions. After dumping her phone into her purse, Xyla put on a diamond watch of similar value before heading downstairs.
Having put much effort into her makeup and outfit, Xyla seemed even more noble and fairy-like. represented a class above those reachable by the common people.
Meanwhile, Stanley was making tea in the dining room downstairs.
Chapter 1833 Chapter 1833 The breakfast Xyla Quest requested was fully prepared.
The newly purchased square dining table had a spotless white tablecloth over it.
Everything seemed pristine and intricate.
Xyla walked directly into the dining room, immediately taking her seat when she saw that her breakfast was ready.
Picking up her utensils, she began to eat.
Meanwhile, Stanley Batton sat next to her while he ate, reading the financial news on his phone. He didn't want to miss anything important in the world of finance.
"Darling, I will be going to the national treasury to verify the items. Then, I'll donate half of them to the country," Xyla told him.
"Okay, as you wish," he replied.
Xyla smiled happily in return.
Stanley left promptly after finishing breakfast.
She was still enjoying her meal at the dining table when a golden ray of light suddenly appeared in front of her, accompanied by a light scent of incense that filled her nostrils.
Xyla immediately knew that Sophie Kenwick was here, and it made her feel happy.
Right after that, she saw Sophie sitting across from her, still clad in her elegant outfit and crown.
Her face was as clean and flawless as before.
When Sophie saw the delicious food in front of Xyla, her eyes lit up.
"Wow, everything looks so good! Master, may I have some?"
Thankfully, Stanley made extra portions of everything as he was worried that his wife wouldn't have enough.
When Xyla heard this, she placed one set of sunny-side-up, an egg-and-ham sandwich, and some salad in front of the other girl. "Dig in, Sophie."
Sophie quickly picked up her knife and fork and tried to mimic the way Xyla was eating.
However, the utensils felt foreign to a girl from a different century she couldn't maneuver the fo that her mouth.
She couldn't do it like Xyla.
After several attempts, Sophie scratched her head in a manger, giving Xyla a troubled et "Master, how do I do this?"
I Xyla chuckled before getting up and handing Sophie a spoon. "Here, use this instead."
Seeing the spoon, Sophie cheerfully accepted it and started to eat her food slowly despite how hungry she was.
Her mannerisms dictated the upper-class upbringing she had as a member of the royal family in ancient times.
After finishing her last bite, Xyla turned to look at Sophie again. "Sophie, I am going to bring you somewhere for a makeover later. Your appearance doesn't fit in with the current era."
Sophie nodded in agreement. "Sure, I'll do whatever you say, Master."
Her docile demeanor melted Xyla's heart.
"Good girl," Xyla said. "Go ahead and eat. Let me know if you want some more."
Sophie nodded obediently once more.
After eating, Sophie elegantly picked up a napkin and wiped her mouth.
She then glanced at Xyla. "Master, I'm done now. Didn't you say you're going to help me with a makeover?"
"Yes, come with me," Xyla directed her as she got up first and reached out to Sophie.
The younger girl walked up to Xyla excitedly and grabbed her hand.
Xyla quickly led Sophie out of the dining room and up the stairs.
Along the way, Sophie studied her Master's face from the side with a vague look in her eyes.
Chapter 1834 Chapter 1834 Sophie Kenwick let out a long helpless sigh as she followed Xyla Quest up to the bedroom and then pulled into a huge closet.
Xyla led her to a rack of clothes, placing each item of clothing against her to find a suitable outfit, all while Sophie looked somewhat disoriented.
Although she had been confined within the underground palace, she was aware of what happened outside.
The divine techniques she had cultivated allowed her soul to wander around the outside world freely.
Nevertheless, Sophie's frame of mind remained at the time when she lived in Warrington.
She felt repulsed at the sight of clothes that couldn't fully cover her body.
After hopping around, Xyla chose a white shirt and a khaki woolen pleated skirt, as well as a khaki British-style coat, carefully placing them against the girl for a fitting.
Sophie was very tall with a petite frame and a great physique. After making the measurements, Xyla could already visualize her in that outfit, certain she would look flattering in them.
With a pleased look on her face, Xyla placed the outfit she had selected into Sophie's hands. "How about these? Do you like them?"
Sophie subconsciously accepted the clothes, albeit reluctantly while shaking her head fervently.
A look of surprise appeared in Xyla's eyes. "What's the matter?"
However, as soon as she asked the question, she could think of a possible reason.
Xyla immediately chuckled. "Perhaps you can't accept it?"
Xyla had overlooked this point.
Although Sophie lived in the present, she was still accustomed to the culture and practices that belonged to the past.
People were more conservative during ancient times, where they preserved their modesty.
Anyone who wore clothes like these in the past would be severely reprimanded.
"Society is constantly progressing, and the way everyone dresses is also improving. In this day and age, people are dressed in such fashion now.
"Besides, nobody will judge you. You'll look good in these clothes. Trust me, okay?" Xyla added in a kind and soft tone.
Circumstances determined that Xyla and Sophie would meet, and the latter would even consider her as her Master. Naturally, she needed to take good care of Sophie.
She also seemed like a woeful girl, and it made Xyla want to look after her.
Sophie still seemed upset. "Hmm, I know what the world has become... I've seen everything when my soul wandered around. I am aware of how people live.
"But deep down, I still can't accept it as I wasn't raised this way. My father said that ladies should not show their skin so cavalierly, Sophie explained dutifully.
Xyla affectionately rumpled her hair. "Times have changed, Sophie. Since you're going to live in this present time, you would have to slowly learn to adapt and accept this new way of life What do you think?"
Sophie nodded obediently after a spell, a look of resignation appearing on her face. "Okay. All right, Master Since I'm going to follow you from now on, I will heed your advice. If you're asking me to wear it, then I'll have to wear it."
Xyla was her Master, so she needed to listen to what she said.
Chapter 1835 Chapter 1835 Sophie Kenwick wanted to be compliant with her master.
Seeing how obedient the girl was, Xyla Quest soon melted on the inside.
It was because her appearance was like a gentle breeze outside the window.
"Hmm, I won't force you if you really can't accept it. You can wear other clothes like some longer dresses here, or even long-sleeved shirts and pants," Xyla assured her.
"It's okay, Master. If you say I should wear this, then I will. That god did say I should follow you," Sophie answered.
With that, she clutched the clothes and wagged her finger at them.
In the next instant, her former attire had disappeared, and in its place were Xyla's carefully chosen clothes wrapped around her frame.
Her long, dark and straight hair was also visible, dangling past her shoulders to her waist.
She looked beautiful.
Her previous princess-worthy outfit fell by her feet, catching Xyla by surprise as she watched.
People who possessed magical powers were way too lucky.
Even a change of clothes was easier for them than ordinary folks.
While Xyla gazed at Sophie in a bewildered manner, Sophie casually picked up her clothes on the ground. She then hugged it carefully in her arms. "This is the wedding outfit that my father arranged for me.
"Father had up to a hundred seamstresses in the palace work on this back when he had this outfit made. He supervised the entire process, from the colors to the choice of fabric and the cutting.
"This outfit represented my father's love for me. He also personally supervised the making of my o He designed it and ordered the best blacksmiths in the palace to craft it."
Sophie's gaze suddenly turned sad when she spoke about this, clearly missing her father.
Xyla's heart ached when she saw this. She gently ruffled her hair again. "Sophie, don't be sad. Since you can't go back in time, you might as well look forward," she added. Sophie nodded. "Yes, you're right."
After that, Xyla carefully picked up Sophie's intricate golden crown. "You can keep these things in your room. When you miss your father, you can take them out and look at them."
Sophie nodded obediently once again. The tears in her eyes became even more apparent as if there were tens of thousands of stars in her eyes, shining brightly.
"All right, I'll take you to your room now. We will head out for your makeover after you've put your things away," Xyla said.
Sophie nodded again.
No matter what Xyla said, she would agree to it.
Xyla led her into the bedroom directly next to the master bedroom.
Her Master's gentle and considerate manner also enabled Sophie to feel at home.
She suddenly didn't feel so alone anymore. Aside from her father, there was another person who cared about her.
Sophie swore she would protect Xyla, even to the extent of putting her life on the line for her.
Chapter 1836 Chapter 1836 After bringing Sophie Kenwick to check out her room, Xyla Quest drove away from the house with the girl in her red Maserati.
A large entourage of luxury cars followed after them as security detail, attracting a lot of attention on the road.
Xyla's sports car moved forward rapidly.
It was something wonderful that Sophie had never experienced before. Although she had seen such cars while her soul had been wandering, she had never physically been inside of a fast car... until now. She liked it very much.
It moved much faster than horse carriages used in the past.
People in this era were indeed lucky.
Xyla drove with one hand while she twirled her long black, curly hair with the other.
She then looked at Sophie with a smile. "Sophie, what do you think? Do you like this feeling?"
Sophie nodded. "Yes, I do like sports cars. Did you know that I enjoyed exciting experiences like this back when I lived in the palace too?
"Father and I used to go on horse races, and I rode extremely fast each time that even he lost to me. At the time, I thought my horse was the fastest thing in the world.
"I didn't expect something faster than horses would appear in this world after so many years.
"A lot has changed in this world," Sophie quipped thoughtfully.
Xyla listened attentively with a gentle smile on her face. "Yes, that's true. I'll help you get used to all this real soon and let you experience the world we live in today. "Sophie, I can protect you in this world too... just let me know if you need anything at all," she added.
Xyla felt quite sorry for Sophie, and she wanted to look after her.
Sophie instantly felt warm in her heart.
Everything Xyla said made her feel safe, and she felt as if she belonged here.
"Okay, that's for certain, Master. Will you always be this good to me?" Sophie asked.
"Yes, I will never abandon you, and we'll protect each other. It won't be cheap talk," Xyla responded.
Sophie's eyes instantly turned red. "Okay, we'll protect each other."
Xyla was such a good person, and Sophie genuinely wanted to protect her with her own life.
Xyla brought Sophie to a makeup studio in the busiest part of the city center. The studio was the most renowned in Atlantis, even in the entire country.
King, the best stylist in the country owned the studio. Getting styled by King in person was not easily accomplished, even with a lot of money.
This was Xyla's favorite makeup studio.
"We're here so that the owner can give you a fresh look, that will make you look even better. What do you think?" Xyla asked. Sophie seemed excited. "Okay."
She quickly glanced at her current outfit, still feeling exposed after being given a pair of long boots.. Although it was very fashionable, she still wasn't used to it as most of her thighs were still on display.
It was hardly presentable.
However, since Xyla liked the way she looked, she didn't feel compelled to argue.
She obediently followed Xyla into the makeup studio.
Chapter 1837 Chapter 1837 After looking around, Sophie Kenwick was drawn to the luxurious environment.
The moment Xyla Quest walked in, an employee dressed in a suit approached her. "Ms. Quest, are you here to see King?"
"Yes," Xyla replied.
"Do you have an appointment? Ouch!" Before the employee could finish speaking, somebody dressed in a similar suit knocked his head violently with a makeup brush. That person was King, the young and successful celebrity stylist.
Although they were both wearing similar suits, King wore an elegant, custom-made suit that made him seem more exclusive.
"What are you saying? Can't you see who this is? Do you think Xyla Quest needs to make an appointment to see me?" King asked unhappily.
With that, King walked over to her. "Ms. Quest, it's a pleasure to see you and my honor to serve you."
Xyla chuckled. "The pleasure is mine. Please, don't yell at him. He's merely following the rules."
As she spoke, Xyla peered at the employee who had been hit by King earlier.
King laughed. "How could I not? He has no idea who he's talking to. Right this way, Ms. Quest." Xyla chuckled. "Okay."
After that, King made a gesture, beckoning them. In front of Xyla, he behaved respectfully.
Right then, somebody opened the door. A woman with blonde hair and blue eyes walked in.
She was wearing limited-edition luxury items from head to toe, with an obnoxious look on her face.
Her entire body seemed to be glowing.
As soon as she walked in, she walked directly over to King. "You must be King, right? Why aren't you willing to be my stylist?"
He smirked. "I told you. I don't have time."
The woman pointed a finger angrily at Xyla's face. "But you have time for her?"
"Yes, that's right," he replied smoothly.
"Why? How is she different?" the woman demanded to know.
"That's because she's Xyla Quest."
The woman immediately seemed astonished. "Xyla... Xyla Quest?"
After that, she observed Xyla's face before quickly taking a step back.
That explained why she found this person so familiar. It was Xyla.
The woman felt flabbergasted.
"If-if it's Xyla Quest, that's fine. I'm sorry," she said quietly as she swivel.ne Xyla.
Xyla laughed. "It's okay."
Xyla would never take small matters like this seriously.
The woman let out a long, helpless sigh before glancing at King. "When will you be free?"
"I'll get back to you," King said.
"Fine," the woman responded before turning around to leave.
Meanwhile, King quickly turned to look yla with a respectful on his face. "Ms.
head up to my office." Cont Xyla nodded.
King's attitude had changed drastically within a short time. Sophie couldn't resist sighing.
One thing had not changed whether it was the ring the past or the present.
A person's status in life determines e kind of treatment one receives.
Xyla held Sophie's hand and followed King up the stairs.
"Who was that woman earlier?" Xyla asked while they walked. King pinched his forehead and hesitated.
Chapter 1838 Chapter 1838 "She's my ex-girlfriend," King replied, shrugging helplessly.
"She probably still has feelings for me and probably why she keeps coming back to bug me," he added.
Xyla Quest chuckled. "I see."
"She's the daughter of a wealthy businessman from Country M," King explained further.
"It seems she comes from a decent family. She looks quite good too. Why did you break up with her?" Xyla asked.
"She..." King hesitated again.
Xyla chuckled again. "It's fine if you don't want to say it."
It was none of her business, anyway.
"It's not that I don't want to say it. There isn't anything I'd keep from you. But honestly, it's rather embarrassing. She's physically abusive," King stated.
Xyla was shocked to hear this.
Physical abuse?
Xyla found it hard to imagine a man of King's stature, over six feet tall, being physically abused by a much shorter woman.
She really couldn't picture it.
"Why?" Xyla asked incredulously.
King scratched his head. "Why else? She has violent tendencies. I'd get hit if I'm not careful, and I don't want to hit her back because I love her. Besides, she's a woman, and I'm a man. How could I hit a woman?
"However, I have mulled things over after a while. As much as I love her, I can't accept a physically abusive partner," he added.
"Yes, you did the right thing. You should not tolerate physically abusive partners. If it happened once, it could happen for the rest of your life," Xyla responded.
"Yes."
Sophie Kenwick silently listened without interrupting.
She foundat unbelievable for women to be physically abusive toward men, proving how their statuses in society had improved over the yearo During ancient times, women tended to be submissive as their husbands could never be wrong.
A woman's husband was her everything.
In the past, women were abused by their husbands, but not vice versa.
Sophie felt that life in the present time was a wonderful one.
Other than not having her father or any of her family around, everything else seemed pleasant.
Upon entering King's office, Xyla urged him to do a makeover for Sophie.
Xyla sat nearby going through her work emails on her phone as she waited for Sophie.
At all times, Xyla had a soft expression on her face.
King first trimmed Sophie's eyebrows, then applied some light makeup on her face.
The makeup wasn't heavy, and it also had a casual feel to it. It suited Sophie's taste very well.
Once her makeup was complete, she looked even prettier than before.
Then, King picked up a pair of scissors and began working on her hair, first trimming her long tresses until they were shoulder-length. After that, he dyed it an ash-gray color. en.swhovels.net Once the hair-dying was completed, King curled the edges of her hair slightly outward.
He then divided her hair into two โวเ sections. The upper section was gathered into a high ponytail, while the lower part was left loose and dangled naturally by her shoulders. en.swhovels.net He left her bangs alone, so they looked the same as they did before.
At one glance, Sophie appeared even more fashionable than she did before.
Her overall vibe and image had improved tremendously.
Sophie was extremely satisfied to see her complete transformation through the mirror.
King was also very pleased with her makeover.
Chapter 1839 Chapter 1839 After ensuring that the makeup was immaculate, King looked happily at Sophie Kenwick's reflection in the mirror.
"That outfit looks very flattering on you today. Only your hairstyle and makeup were slightly off but now, with this makeover, everything matches better. Of course, your personality and image also go well together with this look," King explained.
Sophie nodded. "Thank you. You're very talented."
If King lived in Warrington, he'd have become the women's favorite person in the palace.
He'd be able to do well wherever he went.
Xyla Quest was also very pleased with Sophie's makeover, finding her beauty to be astounding.
She walked over to Sophie with a smile and put her hands on Sophie's shoulders, looking at her reflection in the mirror. "It looks fantastic! Thank you, King."
King chuckled. "Don't mention it. I'm only doing my job, Ms. Quest."
They left the makeup studio after settling the payment. A group of bodyguards who waited outside immediately stepped in line behind them.
The majestic formation and the two beautiful women instantly drew a lot of attention.
Pedestrians could not resist turning to look at them as they talked amongst themselves.
"Isn't that Xyla? D*mn. Isn't she way too pretty? No wonder the President of Dragon Group loves her so much."
"She looks even better in person, like a fairy."
"The girl next to her looks very pretty, too. Who is she?"
"She must be from a wealthy family, too. Birds of a feather often flock together, naturally."
"That's for sure! Rich people only befriend other rich people."
Being stared at and talked about openly by so many people made Sophie feel a little flustered.
She subconsciously adjusted her bangs before smiling at everyone.
Her smile was so charming, countless men and women found themselves besotted to her.
Xyla affectionately rumpled Sophie's new hairdo. "Come on, let's get into the car."
The younger girl nodded and dutifully followed Xyla into the car.
After getting into the car, Sophie scrutinized herself in the mirror.
All women liked to look pretty. She found erself to be in a fantasticnet be seeing as how she h e prettier now. Contovelin However, she was still not entirely used to her outfit.
Xyla could tell what she was thinking, so she set out to reassure her with a compliment.
"Sophie, you look good like this. You should on...
ess up like this from nower how everyone was praising you earlier?
"There's nothing wrong with how you're dressed in this world, got it?" Xyla asked.
Sophie nodded. "Yes, Master, whatever you say is right."
"Okay, good girl. Also, you don't have keep tolling me your master. Y el. foete can me Xyla," Xyla said, not used to being referred to as Master.
"But I've gotten used to it, and you are my Master," Sophie answered.
"Fine, as you wish. As long as you're happy," Xyla told her.
"Okay, Master."
"I'm going to appoint you as my bodyguard officially. Do you agree with that?" Xyla asked.
"Yeah, of course. You're my Master, so you can decide," the girl replied.
"It's been decided then. From now on, you'll be my bodyguard," Xyla confirmed.
As soon as Xyla finished speaking, her eyes widened in shock.
It was because she saw something.
Chapter 1840 Chapter 1840 A white ball of light had appeared in the sky in front of Xyla Quest, resembling a halo.
A faint white figure could be seen in the halo.
Xyla rubbed her eyes before looking at the same spot, but the vision had disappeared.
She was sure she had seen something earlier.
What could it have been?
Was it a god? Or was it the nine-tailed fox demon?
Could it have been something else?
Xyla had many questions in her mind.
Now, she had many questions regarding her overall state.
However, she couldn't get any answers to her questions.
Xyla figured that the time wasn't right yet.
When the time was right, all the answers would present themselves.
She knew that a god was secretly helping her, so she didn't feel so panicked anymore.
With a dutiful and powerful girl like Sophie Kenwick by her side, she felt secure.
If danger fell upon her or her husband, Stanley Batton, they would at least not be completely helpless.
"What are you looking at, Master?" Sophie asked with a curious look in her eyes. Her eyes seemed to glow.
"Didn't you see anything just now?"
Sophie seemed confused. "No, Master. Did you see something?"
"Yeah, I saw a white halo in the sky directly in front of us earlier, with a white figure in the center of that halo. wanted to take a better look, but couldn't see anything after that," Xyla confessed.
Sophie quickly turned to look in the direction Xyla pointed at. "Could it have been a god?"
Xyla shook her head. "I don't know."
"Could you have seen it mistakenly?" Sophie asked.
"I'm pretty sure that's not the case," Xyla answered.
"All right then, regardless of what it was, it didn't seem to want to harm you. If it did, it would've done so by now," Sophie said.
Xyla nodded. "Yeah, perhaps you're right."
After that strange episode, Xyla gathered her wits and peered at Sophie. "All right, let's go home," she told her "When we get home, I'LL S show you around so you can get used to the surroundings. Then, I'll take you to the office."
"Okay, sure."
Once they arrived back home, Xyla escorted Sophie to every room in the house.
Although Sophie could have viewed everything with her magic, she patiently stayed by her side and went through the entire process because she enjoyed being around Xyla.
She liked listening to her and looking at her pretty face.
She appreciated how gently Xyla treated her, as well as looked after her.
They may have only met a day ago, but Sophie already liked her Master a lot.
She felt as if Xyla was practically a fairy.
Xyla's house was massive.
