Every department in Quest Group was also talking about Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton in their WeChat groups.
Many of them unanimously agreed that Stanley had been cheating on his wife.
At the same time, another theory began to spread within the company where people believed that the couple only portrayed their relationship in ways that they could market themselves.
Privately, they each had their own lives, and things weren’t as rosy as people assumed.
Because of how this fitted the status of most upper-class couples, the rumor became widespread.
All of a sudden, many people looked down on Xyla.
Those who were always envious of her now felt a sense of satisfaction, thinking that the world was fair.
Outside, there were strong winds and rain, but within her office, Xyla maintained her usual calm demeanor.
Not paying attention to anything outside the window, she focused on reviewing her work documents.
After doing so for a while, Xyla finally had some free time.
She stood up and walked over to the French windows, twisting slightly to relieve the tension in her neck and shoulders before gazing out the window.
Everything was peaceful.
Outside the window, the sun shone against the ground.
Although the sky was clear, it was snowing.
Snowflakes the size of goose feathers gently descended from the sky, making the entire city appear at peace.
“I’m just speaking my mind, but I think Xyla is only trying to act tough. I doubt that woman is Stanley’s younger sister.”
“Why are you the only person responding to this? Where is Stanley? If nothing is going on, why isn’t he responding?”
“You two have been keeping this a secret for so long. Why are you the only person addressing the issue? Xyla, I think you must be so tired trying to protect your image.”
“I nearly stopped believing in love. Thankfully, you two are fine.”
“I believe Xyla is not lying. Why are you people so negative? Are you hoping they get a divorce?”
People were saying all sorts of things in the comment section.
Xyla suddenly didn’t know how to respond to the comments that doubted her words.
