Xyla Quest laughed a little. She held her phone up to Stanley Batton’s face to show him the news headline on the screen. “Here, look at this…”
“X Entertainment announced on its official Weibo page that it has successfully signed a contract with the viral internet celebrity, Cadence Carmichael! The company’s share price increased by 10%...” This was clearly written on the phone’s screen.
“Oh.” When Stanley saw Cadence Carmichael’s name, he remained calm.
Although he had agreed to let Xyla sign this person on, he still felt annoyed by it.
“Cadence is someone who has a lot of his followers. It’d be odd if the company’s share price didn’t increase after signing him on…
“This person’s aura can instantly outshine most of the other celebrities in the entertainment industry…
“With a little bit of effort, we’d be able to make him a top-notch celebrity…” Xyla enunciated each word slowly. Her eyes were filled with joy.
“Oh.” Stanley still seemed indifferent.
Xyla knew why Stanley was behaving like this. She couldn’t resist rolling her eyes at him right away. “What’s the matter with you? Are you still annoyed with him?”
“Hmm… I still think that this kid has impure objectives…” Stanley said.
“Your wife really isn’t that charming… Besides, can you have a little faith in your wife?” Xyla asked.
When Stanley heard this, he immediately frowned seriously. “Who said my wife isn’t charming? If you’re not charming, then nobody else in the world is…”
Xyla was speechless.
“Anyway, I’ve said it before, and I’ll repeat it. Stay away from him…” Stanley said.
“Have faith in me…” Xyla said.
With that, Xyla affectionately grabbed Stanley’s arm and smiled. “Alright, honey. I’m hungry… Let’s have breakfast…”
***
After she was done with breakfast, Xyla didn’t leave the dining room immediately.
Instead, she finished half her glass of warm milk. After that, she opened Weibo to have a look.
