NovelApp"Okay. I'll make those for you in a bit," Stanley Batton said.
"Oh, right. I also want a bowl of cream of mushroom soup. Do you know how to make it?" Xyla Quest asked.
"I don't, but I can learn," he said.
"Oh, okay," Xyla said.
The high-level executives on Stanley's computer screen were all dumbfounded.
This woman had ordered their CEO to cook for her. She even said it matter-of-factly. It appeared as if their CEO cooked for her frequently.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCould the cold and distant Stanley Batton have a soft side like this? Everyone looked at each other, as countless questions appeared in their minds. In the end, they all muted their microphones and began whispering among themselves.
"Did I hear that wrongly? Does our CEO cook in his private life? It's impossible to imagine our demon king wearing an apron and making soup." "No way... Who is this woman? Our CEO has broken the rules for her more than once. Oh my god. Isn't she amazing?" "I have no idea, and I dare not ask. My entire family is shocked! I can only feel that our CEO is a warm-hearted person when he spoke to this woman." "We have agreed that nobody could pick up personal calls during a meeting. Why has he done so repeatedly? What does this woman look like?" After carefully listening to Xyla's instructions, he hung up and shifted his attention back to his computer screen.

Everyone on the screen instantly turned on their microphones and seriously resumed the meeting. None of them dared to question him.
Stanley looked at them coldly as if nothing had happened. "Let's continue..." After that, the meeting continued.
*** At noon, Stanley returned to his ancient, castle-like villa in the suburbs.
Since Wilson Batton was home, the villa was bustling with noise and excitement.
Josh Batton, Catherine Batton, and Sharon Lindt were all chatting with Wilson in the living room. Catherine continued to tell jokes to Wilson, making everyone laugh loudly in the process. When Stanley saw such a scene, he couldn't help but smile.
Regardless of the time, their house would be bustling with excitement whenever Catherine was around. Ever since she first arrived, Stanley knew that she would be the source of joy and laughter in the family.
When Wilson saw Stanley, he immediately waved at Stanley. "Chere, Stanley..." Wilson was beaming happily and had a lively expression on his face.
Stanley walked over and sat next to Josh.
"How have you and your wife been recently? Did you make her upset?" Wilson asked.
"No," Stanley answered.
"Are you really his biological father? People usually ask if theirdaughter-in-law bullied their son or something, isn't that so? Hahaha..." Catherine joked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWilson rolled his eyes at Catherine. "Does he look like the kind of person who would get bullied? If anything, he would probably be the one bullying Xyla. He has the face of a bully." "Haha. Are you sure Stanley isn't your adopted child?" Catherine couldn't resist teasing. Stanley coughed awkwardly before picking up a lighter and lighting up a cigarette for Wilson.
Josh couldn't help but smile too.
In the next second, the glimmer in Josh's eyes faded away as he vaguely felt a pang of pain in his heart.
"If he dares to mistreat Xyla, he's my adopted son. If he's nice to Xyla, he's my biological son, Wilson said as he looked at Stanley with a serious expression. "Do you get what I mean?" Wilson added.
Stanley didn't say anything. Instead, he silently lit another cigarette for himself and took a puff from it.
"Oh right, Stanley..." Wilson said before pausing.
