Why were these people so against Xyla Quest having a good life?
It wasn’t enough for her to respond to these lame rumors, but they even demanded that Stanley Batton did the same, too.
Never mind that.
According to them, Stanley's silence meant there was truth in the rumor, and Xyla was putting up a front against this cheating drama.
She couldn’t be bothered to respond anymore, she decided as she silently exited the app. After brewing herself a cup of coffee, she resumed her work.
Her haters continued to stir up trouble as she worked, many of them claiming that she wasn’t responding because she had no defense.
“Why are you silent? Do you have nothing to say?”
“I’ve said before that Xyla’s marriage seemed fake. Now, it seems that is the case.”
“Why must she put up an act?”
Meanwhile, Xyla was blissfully unaware of all these as she devoted her full attention to work.
Knock, knock, knock.
Three sharp raps against the door sounded as Xyla went through her third document, prompting her to look up from her paperwork.
Before she could speak, the door opened to reveal Sharon Lindt storming in with an angry expression on her face.
A look of shock appeared in Xyla's eyes when she saw her mother-in-law, but she soon realized what was going on.
She stood up hastily, smiling as she approached Sharon. As usual, she grabbed Sharon by the arm affectionately.
