The two of them were the center of attention.
After taking a few steps forward, Xyla Quest suddenly felt an ache in one of her heels, causing her to frown immediately.
However, she didn't say a word and continued to walk next to Stanley Batton.
Stanley happened to have caught her micro expression. "What's the matter?" Xyla shook her head. "It's nothing. I guess the high heels must have scraped against my foot." Search the FindNøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
"Which one?" Stanley asked.
"The right one," Xyla said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStanley instantly kneeled in front of her and carefully lifted her right leg by holding her right ankle. He then carefully examined her heel.
He could see a large bruise on her heel. The skin on it had torn, and its surrounding was swollen.
His action once again attracted everyone's attention...
"Why are you only tellingnow?" Stanley asked.
"It didn't hurt before we cdown," Xyla said.
Stanley didn't say anything else. Instead, he directly carried her in his arms.
When the surrounding employees saw how Stanley was holding Xyla like a princess, they all seemed shocked... Their CEO, who normally acted coldly and strictly, was behaving in such an affectionate manner, making everyone feel envious.
Xyla felt deeply embarrassed by what Stanley did. She immediately struggled to set herself free. "What are you doing? Putdown. There are a lot of people watching," she said. While speaking, Xyla snuck a look around. Indeed, everybody around them was staring at them.
"Let them watch," Stanley said. He had no intention of putting her down.
He began walking out the door while his employees were left behind in the lobby, seemingly petrified.
After Stanley and Xyla had left, everyone began speaking excitedly at once.
"D*mn... Our CEO really does treat her as his precious sweetheart." "Xyla Quest really is a strange woman. I want to ask her how she had managed to conquer this cold and unapproachable man." "Shut up. I want to becXyla." "His gentle side is reserved for Xyla alone. What sort of divine script is this? To be honest, I used to think that our CEO was gay." Xyla hadn't heard any of the things these people said.
However, she still felt embarrassed about being carried out of the company by Stanley.
Knowing how stubborn Stanley was, Xyla could only let him have his way.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStanley only carefully put Xyla down when they arrived in front of his black Bentley Arnage. He then opened the car door and attentively helped her into the car.
Right after that, he got in from the other side before gently patting his lap. "Put your foot up here."
"Con. That's not necessary. This happens all the time, and I'm used to it Xyla said with a nonchalant expression on her face. Any woman who liked wearing high heels would have experienced this kind of bruise on their heels.
This was something Xyla was very much used to.
Stanley shifted Xyla's body around and pulled her right foot up onto his lap without saying anything. He then removed her high heels and carefully examined her foot again. After that, he retrieved iodine cotton buds and a pack of band-aids from the glove compartment. He carefully disinfected her heel before applying a band-aid to it.
Xyla could feel a slight aching sensation across her skin, but she found it somewhat bearable.
Since she wasn't a particularly sensitive person, she didn't make a sound throughout the process.
Once the band-aid was properly applied, Stanley satisfactorily placed her foot down where it was initially. He then retrieved a pair of single-use slippers from the glove compartment and placed them by her legs. "Wear this later. Got it?" He said.
