However, Stanley Batton did not reply to Xyla Quest. Instead, he walked over to a female waitress who was drooling over him.

Meanwhile, Xyla did not ask any further as she sat down on the couch.

Outside, the northern wind blew as snow filled the air and made the world appear somewhat colder than it was. Although it was only a door away, it seemed like a completely different world altogether.

After glancing at the view of the snowy scenery outside, Xyla rested her chin on one hand and looked over at Stanley.

She wondered what he was saying to the waitress. After a while, someone retrieved a bottle of mineral water from a nearby fridge. The person then handed it over to Stanley, along with a white towel.

Stanley soon returned to Xyla with those items. Carefully, he wrapped the bottle of mineral water with the towel before pressing it gently against Xyla’s swollen face.

In that instant, Xyla could feel the coolness against her face. The sting from the slap earlier began to fade away. Although her face felt cold, her heart was very warm.

“Thank you. I’ll do it myself,” Xyla said as she took the bottle and towel from Stanley and continued to press them against her face.

“You’re welcome,” Stanley said before shifting his gaze slowly to the view outside the door.

His high nose-bridge and perfect jawline, coupled with his elegant posture while sitting, was a sight to behold from Xyla’s point of view.
