Even if these women made him want to hurl, he no longer cared.

When Xyla was done with work at Quest Group, it was already six in the evening. As night fell, the dazzling city lights intertwined with the sparkling stars in the sky. The whole world was covered in a sea of brilliance.
Putting down the last document in her hand, she raised her head to see the beautiful view.
Her neck ached a lot. She gently massaged it with a massage tool before touching up her natural makeup and got up to tidy her outfit in front of the full-length mirror. Her reflection was wearing a white Chiffon shirt with a large bow tied around her neck. She wore a houndstooth high-waisted skirt that rested two centimeters above her knee. Her graceful figure was displayed perfectly. The pair of long legs below her skirt was exceptionally fair and slender as if they had highlights of their own.
After simply tidying up her largely curled black hair, she grabbed her bag and drove to the western restaurant where she had made a reservation earlier. novelbin
Upon entering the restaurant’s entrance, she heard a casual voice call from behind. “Beautiful Miss Quest?”
She paused and turned to the source of the voice. She could see Sebastian, Henry, and Gary walking over to her smilingly. Sebastian was leading the group with Rachel in his arms. Henry and Gary were behind him without dates.
Among the four, Sebastian was dressed most flamboyantly. He wore a bright pink suit matched with a white shirt and white sneakers. He drew a lot of attention.
Xyla nodded at them out of politeness as she smiled. “Hello…”
The group stood in front of her. Rachel nodded at Xyla formally as she gave her a delicate smile. She was wearing a white Chanel woolen suit, her hair pulled back into a high ponytail, looking like a high school student.
Staring at her smile, Xyla felt relaxed. She nodded and smiled back at her.
“Beautiful Miss Quest, are you here for dinner as well? With whom?” Henry asked with a bright smile.
“With Five Batton,” Xyla answered.
“Is that so? We haven’t seen Old Fifth for a few days now. Do you mind if we dine in the same room?” Sebastian casually hugged Rachel as he asked.
Since he had spoken, she felt it inappropriate to disrespect him, so she nodded.
The grin on Sebastian’s face deepened as his eyes disappeared in the smile.
“Right, allow me to introduce. This is my woman, Rachel Wood.” Sebastian casually gestured at Rachel.
“Rachel, this is Xyla Quest,” Sebastian introduced as he looked at Xyla. The girls shook hands.
When they were done with greetings, a black Honda drove over. Soon, the man got out of the car. He was dressed in a casual black trench coat, matched with a monochrome striped shirt and black pants with black Martin boots on his feet.
Lush short black hair was combed into a natural 3:7 hairstyle. This noble style was mingled with a hint of a laid-back vibe.
As it was dinnertime, there were many passersby around. The instant they saw him, everyone couldn’t pull their eyes away.
He didn’t have to do anything but stand there to make every being fall to their knees like he was a dazzling piece of artwork. He got closer to her, step by step, closing their distance. In that instant, she suddenly felt as if the beautiful night scenery had lost its colors. In her entire world, only he was shining brightly.
Standing before her, he completely ignored Sebastian and the gang, only staring quietly at her face. “I’m sorry I ran a little late.”
Sebastian and the others were mildly annoyed by his disregard. Sebastian and Henry couldn’t even resist roiling their eyes at him.
