Ron Batton nodded. After that, he impatiently unscrewed the porcelain bottle and excitedly surveyed its contents.
Inside, there were small, black pills the size of small grains.
“I didn’t expect that Yaksha would be able to solve the problem that has been bothering me for years!” Ron was very excited. He had a joyful look in his eyes.
Perhaps, his favorite grandson could finally be cured!
“Leave it to me… I’ll help you guys…” Ron added.
“It’s okay. I’ll do it myself… If I encounter anything I don’t understand, I’ll ask you for help,” Xyla said.
“You’re very busy with work. Allow me. Besides, I’m free most of the time. It gets awfully boring,” Ron said.
Seeing how Ron was eager to take over, Xyla didn’t say anything else. She nodded gently. “Alright, I’ll be leaving for work, Grandpa.”
Ron smiled. “Okay. Be careful on the road…”
After getting into her red Maserati, Xyla headed to Quest Group under her bodyguards’ protection.

Once Xyla was done with Quest Group’s work, she went to X Entertainment to inspect how the trainees were doing in a low-key manner.
After the inspection, she walked out of the company and got into her red Maserati…
By then, the sky had already turned dark.
The golden sunset illuminated the sky with a red hue, and the entire world seemed to be shrouded in golden light.
At one glance, the hue of the city seemed much gentler than usual. It was very calming to look at.
Xyla didn’t turn on the engine right away. Instead, she opened Weibo and checked the hot topics for today.
There were many names of artists from X Entertainment on the list of hot topics, including Josh Batton, Dave Wilkins, Jay Corben, and Morty Wayne.
Most of the topics were about their latest work.
Xyla tapped on them to have a look. After seeing that it was all compliments, she exited Weibo with relief and prepared to turn on the car engine.
Right then, Jay Corben walked out of the company with his young, beautiful assistant, Macy.
