"Sure." Stanley turned around and headed upstairs. He did not say another word.
"I've prepared dinner. Ceat in a bit." Georgie said while she looked at his back.
He did not reply and continued walking.
As he walked past the master bedroom, he stared at the closed door for a moment before returning to his own room.

Just as the three of them were about to sit together at the dining table, Stanley Batton's phone rang. The person calling was Catherine Batton.
He placed a small helping of stir-fried baby vegetables-which was Xyla's favorite-in Xyla's bowl before getting up and standing at a corner near a window. Looking out the porch, he answered the call.
"What is it?" "Fifth brother, I'm in trouble..." "What happened?" "Mom's found out that I've secretly returned from overseas. She just calledand she wants to meet up withimmediately. What should I do?" "Go meet her at hfirst. I'm coming over now." He pinched the bridge of his nose as he sighed.
Xyla overheard his conversation and her heart sank.
Nothing in her mouth tasted good anymore.
She couldn't help but take a peek at his back as complicated feelings arose from inside her. Was it his girlfriend who had just called? They must have had a good relationship if he was willing to meet up with her at any time.
She knew she shouldn't be bothered by it. She knew that she had to keep her feelings in check, but it still bothered her no matter what she did.
After hanging up the phone, Stanley turned toward the dining table and looked at Xyla, "You guys eat without me. I have smatters to attend to. I'm in a hurry so I need to leave now." He did not wait for Xyla to respond and immediately left the house.
Xyla bit on her chopstick, frowning and clearly irked by what just took place.
Georgie patted her on the shoulder, trying to comfort her.
Xyla forced a smile and continued eating dinner.

"Yeah." "Also, I forgot to tell you. Two days ago I talked with Morty Wayne and Jay Corben about the business plan. They agreed and they'll be following our plans," Georgie said.
"That's good news." Xyla smiled, "Let's continue to go according to our plans." Georgie nodded. "Yes... I believe that this method will allow them to get popular very, very soon." ** A car stopped in front of a six-story villa courtyard.
Catherine paid the driver and got down the car, trembling.
The driver was shocked to see such a luxurious house. Slightly unwillingly, he turned his car around and drove off.
"Rich people are truly something else... Normal humans like us could never get close to them..." the drive muttered to himself as he drove out of the villa while admiring the view. Catherine took in a deep breath, clasped her hands together, and prayed silently while looking toward the sky. Cautiously, she began walking into the villa.
The living room lights were shining brightly. The house was so quiet that if a needle were to fall onto the ground, she would be able to hear it. All bad omens, as Catherine could tell.
She slipped on shouse slippers and walked into the living room.
