Ch. 321..330

Chapter 321

Even though she was petrified inside, she still looked very calm on the outside.

What was more, her eyes were terribly cold. She had totally lost the gentleness that she always had in her eyes.

She looked just like an enraged female crime boss of a gang.

"You crazy woman! What are you trying to do? Let go of me, do you hear that?" Fred Thomson ordered her coldly but his legs were trembling uncontrollably. He even subconsciously raised both of his hands. He had never expected that Xyla Quest was capable of doing so, not even in his dreams.

At this time, everybody else had already pulled their guns out, loaded them and they were all aiming at her head.

However, Xyla was still pointing the gun at his neck without any sign of letting go. "Tell your men to get rid of the dog that's on Georgie."

She was bleeding non-stop but she was as calm as a lake.

Back at Georgie Clementine's side, the other mastiff was pouncing on her and she was dodging it with all her determination.

"Do as Miss Xyla says. Quick, don't dilly-dally!" Fred was trembling.

His men received the orders and shot the mastiff straightaway.

Soon, the mastiff collapsed as well.

Blood of humans and dogs were all mixed together. A strong metallic smell filled the confined space and it made the people inside feel like throwing up.

Her face and legs were all covered in blood.

However, she was still as cool as a cucumber and her aura was powerful.

"You are going to get us out, alone... " Xyla clenched her teeth and backed off while dragging Fred along. She leaned her back on the wall, to prevent anyone from sneaking up to her and shooting her from the back.

It was a juncture between life and death, Fred totally did not dare to disobey her. He looked at his men and said, "Everyone, back off! No one can follow us." "Georgie... can you walk on your own?" Xyla looked at Georgie and asked.

Georgie mustered all her strength and forced herself to stand up. Due to the fight she had with the mastiff, every muscle fiber under her skin was cramping.

Thanks to the pain, it washed off most of her sexual desire. Although there were still some left, her body was able to handle that.

Georgie held herself against the wall. She walked towards Xyla, panting. Although she felt weak and exhausted, she was able to endure all of it.

She looked out for her surroundings while following Xyla and Fred outside.

Fred's men were all standing at their original places obediently. No one was daring enough to follow them.

Using Fred as their lead, they were able to make their way out of the secret room.

Only then, they realised that they were in a huge luxurious mansion.

Fred brought them all the way to the courtyard.

There were a few cars parked in the yard.

She had a look around and they were all BMWs.

"Do you have the car keys?" Xyla questioned him coldly. Her left shoulder was in severe pain and she could barely withstand that. She could only hold on with her willpower. "It's in my pocket." Fred kept quivering.

"Pussy." Georgie taunted him. She then grabbed the car keys from the pocket of his shirt and pressed it right away.

Immediately, there was a response from a car.

Xyla continued to point the gun at Fred's neck. She looked at Georgie and asked, "Are you okay? Can you drive?" Georgie nodded.

Subsequently, Xyla who was having control over Fred got into the back seat first.

Georgie Clementine sat on the driver seat.

The sexual desire in her body was starting to wander again.

She clenched her teeth and endured it. She started the car and they left.

Fred looked at Xyla in horror, "Can...can you let me go now? What if the gun misfires?"

"Oh? Even people like you know how to be scared?" Xyla snorted coldly. By that time, blood had stained more than half of her body red.

"I'm scared... you... let me go please, madam."

Chapter 322

Chapter 322

Clearly, Xyla Quest did not plan to let him go that easily. "Hah, let you go? Have you even thought of letting us go back then?"

She saw that there was still a syringe left in his pocket. While overexerting herself, Xyla used her other hand and took out the syringe. She then stabbed the syringe into his thigh with all her strength. Subsequently, she injected all the liquid into his body.

The colour of the liquid was the same as the ones he injected into her and Georgie Clementine. She knew that that was a sex drug as well.

After being injected with a large dose of drug, Fred Thomson started panting very soon and his face flushed red.

By that time, the car was already very far away from the mansion.

After ensuring that no one was following, Xyla looked at Georgie and ordered her, "Stop the car."

Georgie stopped the car immediately on the spot.

Xyla took Fred's phone out of his pocket quietly. She then pushed him out of the car and left him on the road.

That road had no sign of life.

As far as they could see, there was not even a single car.

Fred curled up into a ball on the ground. He was trembling while moaning non-stop.

He was extremely horny but he could not even see a woman...

Xyla quickly got back into the car and Georgie accelerated.

Due to her vigorous movement, her wound was torn open and the pain on her wounded shoulder was aggravating. More blood was oozing out from her wound.

At that moment, Xyla's lips turned extremely pale and she was losing most of her strength.

"I'll send you to the hospital first." Georgie was worried. The sexual desire was still in her body but she could endure it with her willpower.

"How are you doing? Do you want me to pull over and help you to stop the bleeding first?" Georgie asked.

"It's okay, I can handle this." Xyla nodded with assurance. She then tried very hard to take off the jacket that she was wearing. She pulled out a few pieces of tissue paper from the side and pressed onto the part where the bullet hit her. She applied pressure on her wound to stop the bleeding.

Applying pressure like that to an open wound gave her a heart-piercing pain.

However, she endured and took that all in without saying a word.

It pained Georgie in the heart to witness that and she could not help but curse all of Fred's ancestors.

"No, if we go to the hospital, I'm afraid that Fred might ask his men to cause trouble." Georgie was suddenly alert.

"He's not going to look for us anytime sooner. The amount of drugs he took was twice as much compared to us. It will take him quite some time to clear it out without a woman for him to expend his energy... By the time he has cooled down, we would already have assistants by our sides."

She needed to go to the hospital.

Although she could take out the bullet on her own, take care of both of hers and Georgie's wounds, and even ask her family doctor to give her a rabies vaccine.

However, she did not want to bother the Quest's family doctor as she was afraid that her father would be worried. Emily Quest alone troubled him more than enough.

"We will get it done swiftly and go home straight away. After that, we'll ask Five Batton to send over a few men to provide close protection. He will not be able to touch us again."

"Other than today's kidnapping, he would not try anything else. He would never dare to use the law against us."

"Because we have his phone right now. I'm certain that there is more evidence of his crime in it. He would not dare to do that."

Chapter 323

Chapter 323

Xyla Quest was saying it word by word. She was as calm as a general coordinating his troop.

"The reasons why he did that today was because, firstly, he wanted to take revenge on us. Secondly, he did that to take videos of us doing filthy things in order to take control of us so that we will not dare to expose anything." Xyla spoke again.

"You're right." Georgie Clementine agreed to her stand.

"Do you still have any questions? Like why did I let him go? Why didn't I send him straight to the police station?" Xyla's voice was getting weaker and weaker.

At that moment, she felt that the world before her was also starting to spin.

"You have your reasons for the things you do." Georgie smiled.

"For the time being, you left him out there to be on the loose. You should have a perfect plan up your sleeves and that plan would be able to put him in jail for the rest of his life... It can even stop his father and uncle from bailing him out."

"Even if we made a big deal out of what happened today, he will only be sentenced to two or three years in jail. Therefore, we need him to be in good condition so that he can continue doing what he wants. Only then, he will get himself into a bigger problem and spend more years in prison." Georgie poured out everything that was on her mind.

She knew what Xyla was thinking. She did not want to expose all the nasty stuff Fred Thomson did but she wanted to avenge the victims and clear out the obstacles for society. In order to achieve that, she needed another solution and clearly, she had some ideas in her mind.

"You're indeed my BFF, Georgie." Xyla was gratified and she smiled. "How are you doing? Is your wound serious? Does that drug still have an effect on you?"

"I'm feeling okay... Other than the pain on my body and I feel kinda weak, there's nothing else. That drug still has some effect on me but I can handle that." Georgie replied truthfully.

"Look for a phone stand and give Five Batton a call. Ask him to send over some of his men and wait for us at the entrance of First People's Hospital. Let them come to protect us while we're there, just in case." After finishing, Xyla quickly gave the man's handphone number.

At that moment, Georgie found a public telephone booth right outside coincidentally. She immediately took out a few coins from her pocket and got out of the car right away.

The call was picked up in an instant.

After her call was answered, Georgie recounted everything that happened since yesterday and told everything to the person on the other side of the phone.

She then told him all of Xyla's instructions as well.

In order to not deliberately create other problems, she ended the call immediately before she could get a reply from them. She went back into the car and continued to accelerate to the hospital. Meanwhile, Xyla was transferring all the data in Fred's phone into her own phone.

***

On the other side of the phone, Stanley Batton was at a sky garden private room in Unawakened Bar which was located at the top floor and was having a game of mahjong with Sebastian Brenand, Henry Armstrong and Gary Lakes.

After he answered the phone, his face darkened. He threw away the '2 Circles' tile that was in his hand immediately.

Quickly he stubbed out the cigarette which he was holding into the crystal ashtray beside him and stood up with a dark face. "Fred! He's trying to get himself killed!"

Stanley's reaction really shocked everyone around him. They were all talking and laughing a few minutes ago but now, everyone's eyes were on him.

All this time, Stanley always had his poker face on.

Sebastian and the few of them had always believed that he was the kind of person who would still remain calm even if there was an avalanche right in front of him. "Stanley, what happened? What did Fred just do?" Sebastian had his eyes wide open and looked at Stanley.

"He messed with Xyla." Stanley said in a cold tone.

As soon as he said that, he promptly grabbed the long black retro woolen coat which was hanging on the wall. He put it on and rushed out of the room. The entire process only took him three seconds.

Sebastian, Henry, and Gary looked at each other and went to grab their clothes immediately as well. They followed Stanley from behind.

Chapter 324

Chapter 324

"Don't tell me that Xyla was involved because she lent her help when he tried to get revenge on Georgie?" Sebastian Brenand's eyes were filled with anger.

"You knew what happened between Fred and Georgie too?" Stanley Batton had a stunned look in his eyes and looked at Sebastian.

The look in his eyes made Sebastian tremble slightly. He then told him everything that he, Henry Armstrong and Rachel Wood had seen and heard yesterday at the coffee shop right under Hilton.

"When the three of us heard their conversation, we figured that Fred was trying to get Georgie or some actors from X Entertainment on bed by using his powers. Georgie refused... We don't know about the details as well." Sebastian said.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Stanley raised his dashing brows and glanced at Sebastian coldly.

"I thought that it wasn't anything important, that's why i didn't tell you." After saying that, Sebastian was starting to figure something out. "So, is what I said really the reason?"

Stanley did not reply. He frowned coldly and gave Zack Cassidy a call. "Send over 200 men immediately. I want them to wait for Xyla and Georgie at the entrance of First People's Hospital. Something happened to them."

"Yes, sir."

"Ensure their safety at all costs." Once he said that, he ended the call and got into his black Honda.

Sebastian, Henry and Gary got into his car as well.

Henry sat on the front passenger seat.

Gary and Sebastian were sitting at the back.

Sebastian was cursing viciously, "Fred, that dog! How dare he land his hands on Xyla! Just wait for me, I will make sure he dies."

"Me too." Henry snorted, "That son of a b*tch, this is the end for him."

"If he touches Xyla, there's only one end waiting for him-- Death!" Gary's words were loud and clear.

"Stanley, is it really about what I said just now?" Sebastian asked again.

However, Stanley did not say a word. He stepped on the accelerator to the maximum, turning his car into a bolt of lightning.

Upon noticing that Stanley was obviously being nonchalant, Sebastian dared not to ask again and kept silent.

***

When Georgie Clementine rushed to the First People's Hospital, Xyla Quest could see a big group of men in black from faraway and they were neatly lining up at both sides of the entrance. At the side door, that man's black Honda was parked there.

Right beside the Honda, there were paramedics and a stretcher.

She was indeed shocked by the massive crowd. She did not expect that Five Batton would arrange so many people here.

"They should be Five Batton's men, right?" Georgie looked at those people and asked. She had almost used up all her strength to drive there and her voice sounded hoarse.

Xyla was shocked by the massive crowd as well.

"Uhm..." Xyla gave a soft reply.

Georgie could not help but and sigh, "Nowadays, even backstreets guys get to wear like a gentleman. They are all wearing suits. Five Batton really looks like a big shot, he could rally so many people in one go... no wonder he's the second person in charge of the gang.”

After she finished talking, she drove the car to the side of the Honda.

At the same time, Stanley, Sebastian, Henry and Gary all came down from the car neatly.

Stanley walked straight to the side of the car and saw Xyla in it. He pulled open the car door immediately.

When he saw her entire body covered in blood, he felt as if some part of his chest was hit hard by a megalithic stone.

"Shit!" He cursed softly and his eyes turned bloodshot once again.

Once he said that, he swiftly picked Xyla up and carried her in his arms while the medical team rushed towards them with stretchers.

Stanley placed Xyla onto one of them quickly.

For Xyla, this embrace was like a warm lighthouse once she lifted her head after suffering from all the tosses and turns on the sea. Her wandering heart finally settled down at that moment. Meanwhile, Henry opened the car door which was on Georgie's side.

Georgie glanced at him while panting. She was trembling and prepared to get out of the car.

Henry carried her straight away. He gnashed his teeth and cursed, "Fred Thomson, I curse you and all your ancestors."

"How are you? Are you okay?" Henry asked.

Chapter 325

Chapter 325

Georgie Clemetine nodded gently. "Thank you."

The next second, she leaned onto Henry Armstrong feebly.

Henry did not speak again. He lifted his long pair of legs and quickly strode to the front.

As Georgie's injuries were not that serious, Henry sent her straight for gastric lavage and got her wounds treated.

Xyla Quest on the other hand, was sent straight into the operating theater by a group of people.

After the door of the operating theater was closed, Stanley Batton slowly sat onto the long bench.

Endless murderous aura lingered all over his body.

Sebastian Brenand and Gary Lakes soon sat down as well.

The men in black neatly stood at the sides of the corridor while staying on guard.

"Fred, that son of a b*tch, he was really too cruel, that motherf*cker!" Sebastian clenched his fists tightly.

"His father must have been cursed for eight consecutive generations to have such a son." Gary snorted coldly. "He will get his father killed anytime soon."

"Anytime soon? He can already doom his father right this moment." Sebastian knew Stanley's temper very well.

He knew that Stanley would never forgive Fred Thomson. He might even seek revenge on the Thomsons.

Although the Thomsons were powerful, what did they think they were in front of the Battons?

Their family was not even worthy to polish the shoes for the Battons.

Ring ring ring...

At that moment, Sharon Lindt's call came in.

Stanley pressed the 'answer' button instantly.

"Five Batton, Xyla asked me out for a date in the morning but I waited for two hours and she did not show up. I'm okay with that but she did not even answer my calls. I'm a little worried about her," Sharon then spoke again, "Did something happen to her?"

"Yes, something happened to her. You wait for me at home, I will tell you everything once I get back."

"What? What happened?"

"We will discuss that once I get home..."

Then, Stanley ended the call.

***

About half an hour later, the doctor that was in charge of Xyla walked out of the operating theater.

He stood in front of the three of them and said, "Miss Quest is alright now. The bullet has been extracted and her wounds were all bandaged up. The only thing that she needs to do is to have a good rest. Just be careful of the wounds as they cannot get in contact with water."

Stanley, who was on tenterhooks, was finally relieved. "Hmm."

Right about that time, Xyla was pushed out of the operating theater by the medical team.

She was awake and she got changed into a set of patient gown with blue and white stripes. The bloodstains on her were all cleaned up.

Her face was still pale and wan, the same goes for her lips.

She had an IV drip connected to the back of her hand. The liquid in the bottle was slightly shaking as the hospital bed moved.

As soon as she saw Stanley, Xyla squeezed out a gentle smile for him.

Stanley strode towards her. He lowered his body and looked at her, "How is it? Are your wounds still painful? Hmm?”

Xyla shook her head, "Painkillers were added into the anti-inflammatory drug that I'm taking. They do not hurt now."

"Hmm."

"What about Georgie? Where is she?" Xyla was worried.

"She's okay. She's getting some typical treatments."

Xyla's worrying heart was finally relieved, "Hmm, thank you for bringing so many people to protect me today." "It's my duty." He said.

Chapter 326

Chapter 326

Sebastian Brenand and Gary Lakes stood up immediately as well. They walked to Xyla Quest's side.

"Beautiful Xyla, are you feeling dizzy right now?" Sebastian asked.

Xyla nodded, "Uhm, a little."

Gary said, "If that's the case, you need to eat something that's going to help you replenish your blood supply. It should be because you lost too much blood."

The medical team continued to push Xyla forward.

Stanley Batton and his gang helped to push the hospital bed along the way.

By looking at their faces, Xyla felt extremely warm at that moment.

***

The medical team left right after Xyla was placed onto the big bed in the VIP ward.

Gary went to grab three chairs. He placed them behind Stanley and Sebastian respectively.

Then, the three of them sat down.

The men in black put on a serious look and guarded the entrance of the ward.

Stanley carefully helped Xyla to adjust the speed of her IV drops. He then frowned while looking at her, "How were you kidnapped by Fred? Georgie said someone broke into her house, what about you?" Once he mentioned it, Xyla's heart trembled once again. "I encountered the same thing."

Then, she recounted everything that happened in her house.

"They are getting more and more rampant, f*ck!" Sebastian gnashed his teeth in anger.

"For the next few days, just stay here and rest. As for him, I will handle that," Stanley said.

Xyla's heart suddenly pounded. She immediately grabbed his hands tightly. "Don't be so impulsive, how can you possibly handle him?"

Upon hearing that, Gary and Sebastian glanced at each other helplessly right away. They could not help but put on a faint smile. This was the first time they heard someone saying Stanley not being able to handle someone. It was something new to hear. "Anyway, don't bother." Stanley spoke potently.

"I already have a solution, I only need you to cooperate with me..." Xyla said softly.

"What's the solution?"

"Georgie should have told you already, right? He's not just a pedophile, he likes... cute guys as well..." Xyla asked.

"Hmm."

"What does this mean? Is Fred really such a pervert?" Sebastian's eyes were filled with disbelief.

"Don't cut her off." Stanley frowned coldly and squinted at him.

Sebastian obediently shut his mouth in an instant.

The air around them became silent as well.

"You may continue..." Stanley's gaze slowly fell back onto Xyla's face and curiosity was seen in his eyes.

"I want to put him in prison because I want to avenge those victims. Also, I hope that there will be one less scum like him in this world. There will be another victim once he is on the loose for another day." "You're right, actually you could have just wantonly exposed him but Georgie told me that you don't want to do that because you do not want to hurt the victims for the second time after their past was dug back out again and exposed to the public," Stanley spoke about the scum calmly.

"She even told you about that?"

"Hmm." Stanley replied softly.

"I had already thought of another solution. It can make sure that he stays in jail for the rest of his life and I get to achieve what I want as well."

"What's the solution?" Stanley was starting to get interested.

"You... Can you try to set Fred up and create a scene as if he raped you? Let him fall into the trap. By adding the things that he did today and the raping case, he will definitely be sentenced to life imprisonment," Xyla spoke carefully and she was probing him with her eyes.

She knew that it was very outrageous to ask a man to seduce another man.

However, this was the only solution that she could come up with for now. The only man around her whom she could trust, looked extremely handsome and could catch Fred Thomson's attention with a glance, i could only be him.

 

Chapter 327

Chapter 327

Upon hearing that, Sebastian Brenand and Gary Lakes were both shocked.

None of them expected that Xyla Quest would ask for such a favor.

In their lives, this was the first time ever for them to hear someone asking for such a favor from Stanley Batton.

"I can pay you." Xyla's face was filled with sincerity and eagerness. "You can ask for any amount, is it okay?"

"Beautiful Xyla, do you know what you're saying?" Sebastian could not stand it anymore and asked with eyes filled with question marks.

Were people like Fred Thomson worthy enough for the Fifth Master to give him a lesson personally?

"You're talking a little too much." Stanley glanced at Sebastian coldly.

Sebastian drew in a cold breath and shut his mouth once again. He did not dare to say a word again.

"Okay." Stanley looked at her affectionately and replied.

Xyla let out a long sigh with satisfaction, "How much money do you want?"

"There's no need for the money... It's everyone's duty to punish that scum."

"Five Batton, you're such a nice person." Xyla was deeply touched. Her eyes were filled with praises.

Stanley did not speak again, he only slightly curved up his lips.

Sebastian and Gary were both in shock, again.

They totally did not dare to believe their ears.

What was going on? Did he just promise her? For such a weird request, did he just promise her that easily?

Did that man have no limits?

"Do you want some water to drink?" Stanley's tone was getting more gentle.

"Yes, I would like to."

He stood up immediately. He walked towards the water dispenser and grabbed a cup of warm water for her. He then carefully adjusted the height of her bed and placed a pillow behind her back so that she could sit up.

Right after that, he considerately passed the cup of water to her mouth and fed her personally.

"Gary, let us go out and buy Xy... Beautiful Xyla something. Let's go." Sebastian stood up quickly and pulled Gary's sleeve.

Then, Sebastian put his hand on Gary's shoulder and walked away.

Once they got out, he whispered immediately, "Don't you think that Five Batton is acting all weird now? That kind of request and yet he agreed."

"Ever since he got together with Xyla, he had never been normal, right?" Gary said helplessly.

After Sebastian had left, Stanley placed the cup down and sat back onto the chair.

Xyla, on the other hand, switched on Fred's phone and went through all the SMS for his spendings in detail.

She realised that in Fred's messages, there were records of him spending money at Dreamland Casino everyday.

What was more, those expenses were all very shocking.

Judging from that, he was a gambling addict.

Immediately, Xyla got an idea. She looked at him and said, "Fred loves to visit Dreamland Casino and he will go there to gamble everyday. As for today, he's out of juice but I'm certain that he will be there tomorrow. His records were all in the afternoon so tomorrow afternoon, you should go there and wait for him straight away."

"Once you see that person, try your best to approach him and let him take you away." Xyla then said.

"Do you know that no one ever dared to ask me to do this kind of thing?" His lips curved up in a playful manner.

"I know... Just forget it if you don't want to do it."

"I'm willing to do everything you asked me to do." He said.

Once she heard that, Xyla felt that a part in her heart experienced a slight jolt.

Was she overthinking?

She just felt that there was too much ambiguous chemistry in his sentence.

Chapter 328

Chapter 328

"When you're there, I will send some men over to protect you. Don't you worry, I will not let you suffer." Xyla Quest said again. "You really put a high value on him." Stanley Batton smirked and he looked so calm as if he was the emperor himself.

"Just in case... Although I know you are skilled, but... What if?"

"There's no what if, I will figure things out. You just leave this matter to me alone."

"No, I must be a part of this. I'm the one who asked you to do it and that's why I need to be responsible till the end." Xyla insisted.

"Alright, I will let you take this responsibility."

"Of course."

After she finished her sentence, she felt that something was wrong in what he said just now.

Was she really thinking too much today?

"By the time, when you and Fred get into the room, you..."

"I know what to do." He switched the topic immediately, "You're very incredible, to be able to escape from a place like that." He praised her.

"Probably because one's hidden power will erupt once they're in a do or die situation." Her heart was still trembling when she recalled what happened just now. She really did not dare to think what would happen to her if Fred Thomson's pistol did not fall from his waist.

She would probably be... By the mastiff.

"When you pulled the trigger, it must've hurt, right?" His gaze was as gentle as a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water, roaming around her left shoulder.

"Hmm, I pulled the trigger purposely to let myself feel the pain. If not, how could I wash off that feeling?"

He did not say a word again and only looked her deeply in the eyes. He then helped her to lower her bed and place the blanket over her, "You get some rest, I'll go to the balcony and have a quick smoke." After he was done talking, he slowly walked towards the balcony and stood by the side of the window. He then lit up a cigarette.

Within the smoke, the face which resembled the sculpture of a god was getting colder and colder.

Knock, knock, knock...

A knock on the door was heard.

Stanley turned around and glanced at the door.

At that moment, the door opened straightaway. Henry Armstrong came in while pushing Georgie Clemetine who was on a wheelchair.

She was changed into the patient dress with blue and white stripes. Her face was still pale and wan.

When Xyla saw her, she asked her immediately with concern, "Are you okay? Georgie?"

Georgie nodded.

Henry pushed her straight to Xyla's side.

"How about you? How's everything?" Georgie asked.

"I'm fine, don't worry." Xyla replied softly.

"The doctor said she needed to stay and rest in her ward but she did not listen. She insisted on coming over and I can't talk her out of that." Henry looked at Xyla and said that while helplessly touching his forehead.

"If I can't see her, how can I stay in my ward peacefully?" Georgie said while she turned around and glanced at Henry.

"You... Just go back and take some rest, I'm fine. Five Batton is here to take care of me." Xyla responded and gently held Georgie's hands reassuringly.

Five Batton did not approach them, he continued to stand and smoke at the balcony.

He was facing them with his back all the time.

Under the sun, his shadow was upright and straight, just like a soldier's.

"Did you hear that? Let's go." Henry pushed Georgie out of the room straightaway.

Georgie tried to stand up and resist but Henry simply pressed her back onto the wheelchair. He pushed her out of the room forcefully...

By looking at her being agitated, the corners of his lips curved up into a faint smile.

Once they got out, Georgie frowned with dissatisfaction. "Henry, what are you doing? I haven't finished talking to Xyla."

"You already saw Beauty Quest and she's fine. There's no need to stay there anymore, you need some rest as well." "Who are you to look after me?"

Chapter 329

Chapter 329

"I only want to look after you."

"You..." Georgie Clementine got so mad at him that she was speechless.

However, she knew that he was caring for her and put up with him in the end.

"Do you know that no one had ever been courageous enough to talk to me like that?" Henry Armstrong replied.

"I don't know."

"You really are something else."

Georgie did not respond to him anymore. She closed her eyes to get some rest.

After Henry sent her back to her room, he carried her onto the bed and covered her with a blanket.

Georgie awkwardly coughed, "How many times have I told you? I can get on and off the bed by myself. I don't even need a wheelchair. You don't need to treat me like I am a disabled person." "Hey, girl, do you want something to eat?" Henry grinned. "Shall I buy something for you?"

"It's okay, I'm fine now. Thanks for your help today." Georgie said.

"So cruel, are you chasing me away?"

"We're both single and it's not okay for us to stay in the same room..." Georgie explained.

"It's true that all beautiful roses have thorns, but I admire you." Henry sat beside her bed with great interest. He still had a faint smile in the corners of his lips.

Although she appreciated him for carrying her into the hospital, accompanied her while she was getting her treatment by the doctor and getting her IV drops. However, she still did not want to stay with that man for too long.

She could clearly feel that he had a strong purpose for approaching her.

She felt as if she was treated like a prey.

From the way he hit on girls, she knew that he was experienced and he was a womanizer.

She did not like this kind of person.

"Just carry on with your work, I also have my own things to do, thank you once again." Georgie said indifferently.

"You cruel bastard." Henry complained. "Trying to get rid of me after you're done using me?"

"If not, what? Do you want me to ask you to stay for a game of Mahjong?" Georgie raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Henry.

Henry could not help but laughed. He gently touched his chin with his left hand. "That's interesting."

Buzz buzz buzz... Right at that moment, Henry's phone vibrated.

Henry answered the call immediately once he saw that it was a call from home.

On the other side of the phone, Henry's father told him that he must return home as one of his best friends had just paid them a visit.

He ended the call immediately. He looked at Georgie with his eyes smiling. "Girl... I need to go home for a while. I will pay you a visit later." "There's no need for that, I can take care of myself." Georgie said.

"Good girl... wait for me." Henry patted her head gently. He then turned around and walked away lazily.

As soon as the door closed, Georgie touched the part of her head which was patted by him in disgust and complained, "Flirty."

When she stayed there until evening, she felt a little hungry.

As she was about to pick up the phone and order some food, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in...'

Right after that, the door of the room was slowly pushed open. A man in black came in with two bags full of stuff. He walked towards her. "Miss Clementine, here's something Young Master Armstrong got you. He said that he had something urgent to do so he can't come over."

When she heard him, Georgie thought to herself, 'Nowadays, even gangsters were called that nicely? They even called him Young Master Armstrong.'

After he finished talking, the man in black put down the stuff before he turned around and left.

Georgie did not think too much and took out everything in the bags one by one.

There were six dishes in total and they were all highly nutritious.

Buzz buzz buzz... When she was about to eat, her phone vibrated. There was a notification saying that someone added her on Wechat.

The person addressed himself as 'Y'.

Georgie Clemetine pressed the 'Accept' button on the request as usual before lowering her head and dug into the food.

Right around that time, ring ring... The Wechat notification rang again.

That person sent her a message. "I'm Henry, has all the food arrived yet? Girl, do you like them?"

Georgie was shocked in her heart. She did not expect him to get his hands on her Wechat number.

She knew that Xyla Quest would never simply give others her Wechat number.

"Where did you get my Wechat number from?" Georgie asked.

"I asked my friends for help."

After that, she made a rough estimation of the price for the dinner and transferred the money to him.

"No, girl. What do you mean? Are you trying to be my 'sugar mummy'? For this little amount of money, it doesn't seem enough though." Henry retorted.

"Stop flirting, this is for dinner." Georgie snapped back at Henry's argument.

She did not like to owe people.

Especially for people like Henry who approached her with a motive and whom she disliked.

"The dinner is on me, why are you being so polite?" Henry questioned.

"We aren't that close, to begin with." Georgie quickly answered.

"Take the money." Georgie sternly said.

"No. I won't." Henry insisted.

Then, she threw her phone to the side and did not care about him anymore.

Stanley Batton was always sitting on the couch. He accompanied Xyla Quest throughout the night.

They slept all the way through the night and woke up in the morning.

When the clock struck eight, Xyla opened her eyes and Stanley woke up as well.

He sat up slowly. He looked at Xyla and asked, "What do you want to eat for breakfast?"

"I crave for soup dumplings with green pepper pork and some deep fried dough sticks rolled in thin pancake from Morning Glory that's just at the opposite of the hospital." Xyla requested.

"I will clean myself up first, then I will buy those for you." Stanley said.

He wanted to go downstairs for a walk too as he wanted to move around.

Xyla smiled with satisfaction, "Hmm, thank you."

"Now, I shall help you clean up first..." Then, he walked slowly towards the bathroom.

"It's okay... I can do it myself."

"Sit tight..."

Stanley went to grab a basin full of water. He helped Xyla to wipe her face, hands and neck.

After that, he got some water for her and helped her brush her teeth.

Throughout the entire process, he was taking care of her meticulously.

After he was done helping Xyla with her cleaning, it was Stanley's turn to clean up. He then grabbed his handphone and left.

When he entered the lift, there were a few girls in it.

He stood at the side with a poker face while naturally leaning against the wall.

The girls almost went crazy to be able to witness a cute guy at such a close distance. They were whispering among themselves non-stop. Although their voices were soft, Stanley could still hear them clearly.

However, he did not care about them.

He was too lazy to give them the side-eye.

Once he arrived at the ground floor, Stanley walked straight towards the entrance of the Morning Glory which Xyla had mentioned.
