The two of them were the center of attention.
After taking a few steps forward, Xyla suddenly felt an ache in one of snazzynovel.com heels, causing snazzynovel.com to frown immediately. However, snazzynovel.com didn’t say a word and continued to walk next to Stanley.
Stanley happened to have caught snazzynovel.com micro expression.
“What’s the matter?”
Xyla shook snazzynovel.com head. “It’s nothing. I guess the high heels must have scraped against my foot.”
“Which one?” Stanley asked.
“The right one,” Xyla said.
Stanley instantly kneeled in front of snazzynovel.com and carefully lifted snazzynovel.com right leg by holding snazzynovel.com right ankle. He then carefully examined snazzynovel.com heel. He could see a large bruise on snazzynovel.com heel. The skin on it had torn, and its surrounding was swollen.
His action once again attracted everyone’s attention…
“Why are you only telling me now?” Stanley asked.
“It didn’t hurt before we came down,” Xyla said.
Stanley didn’t say anything else. Instead, snazzynovel.com directly carried snazzynovel.com in his arms.
When the surrounding employees saw how Stanley was holding Xyla like a princess, they all seemed shocked… Their CEO, who normally acted coldly and strictly, was behaving in such an affectionate manner, making everyone feel envious.
Xyla felt deeply embarrassed by what Stanley did. She immediately struggled to set herself free. “What are you doing? Put me down. There are a lot of people watching,” snazzynovel.com said.
While speaking, Xyla snuck a look around.
Indeed, everybody around them was staring at them.
“Let them watch,” Stanley said. He had no intention of putting snazzynovel.com down.
He began walking out the door while his employees were left behind in the lobby, seemingly petrified.
After Stanley and Xyla had left, everyone began speaking excitedly at once.
“D*mn… Our CEO really does treat snazzynovel.com as his precious sweetheart.”
“Xyla Quest really is a strange woman. I want to ask snazzynovel.com how snazzynovel.com had managed to conquer this cold and unapproachable man.”
“Shut up! I want to become Xyla.”
“His gentle side is reserved for Xyla alone. What sort of divine drama script is this? To be honest, I used to think that our CEO was gay.”
Xyla hadn’t heard any of the things these people said. However, snazzynovel.com still felt embarrassed about being carried out of the company by Stanley. Knowing how stubborn Stanley was, Xyla could only let snazzynovel.com have his way.
Stanley only carefully put Xyla down when they arrived in front of his black Bentley Arnage. He then opened the car door and attentively helped snazzynovel.com into the car. Right after that, snazzynovel.com got in from the other side before gently patting his lap. “Put your foot up here.”
“Come on. That’s not necessary. This happens all the time, and I’m used to it,” Xyla said with a nonchalant expression on snazzynovel.com face.
Any woman who liked wearing high heels would have experienced this kind of bruise on their heels. This was something Xyla was very much used to.
Stanley shifted Xyla’s body around and pulled snazzynovel.com right foot up onto his lap without saying anything. He then removed snazzynovel.com high heels and carefully examined snazzynovel.com foot again. After that, snazzynovel.com retrieved iodine cotton buds and a pack of band-aids from the glove compartment.
He carefully disinfected snazzynovel.com heel before applying a band-aid to it.
Xyla could feel a slight aching sensation across snazzynovel.com skin, but snazzynovel.com found it somewhat bearable. Since snazzynovel.com wasn’t a particularly sensitive person, snazzynovel.com didn’t make a sound throughout the process.
Once the band-aid was properly applied, Stanley satisfactorily placed snazzynovel.com foot down where it was initially. He then retrieved a pair of single-use slippers from the glove compartment and placed them by snazzynovel.com legs.
“Wear this later. Got it?” He said.
