Xyla simply smiled before she turned to meet her eyes. "You're right. We're going to sing." Disbelief and confusion were swimming in Jeremy Quest's eyes. "Are you serious?" However, Xyla responded to him with a confident nod. "Yes, Daddy. I'll tell the host that my husband and I are going to sing after Ava Carter's 'From Now On'." Having no other choices, Jeremy nodded.
Getting up from her seat, Xyla strode toward the stage and whispered her request to the beautiful host standing aside.
The host nodded her head without hesitation.

Soon, Ava Carter's performance ended in a big round of applause.
The beautiful host walked to the center of the stage with a stunning smile on her face and announced, "Next, I would like to introduce Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton, who will be singing 'Unrestrained' for us this evening. Please jointo welcthem to the stage!" As soon as the host had just finished her sentence, two workers quickly carried the Chinese zither to the center of the stage.
Immediately, all eyes fell on Xyla as well as Stanley.
Everyone's eyes were filled with curiosity.
"What's going on? Is Xyla going to perform with her husband?" "The Chinese zither? Is one of them going to play it?" "I've never seen the two of them singing in public. Can they sing?" All the guests in the hall had begun a wave of discussion.
When Bailey heard the crowd's comments, she took a sip of the red wine in her right hand, while her other hand remained on May Conner's shoulder. She looked at the crowd and said, "Who says that they can't sing? Xyla reckons that her husband sings even better than professional singers even though he hasn't undergone any training before." "How can an ordinary person sing better than a professional singer?" "That's clearly a lie, isn't it?" "I don't believe it. Ordinary people can't beat professional singers after all." Without paying any heed to Bailey, the guests started to whisper among themselves once again.
"We're not bragging about him, alright. Our Xyla will never lie to us..." May added.
Xyla was extremely irritated at Bailey's and May's provocation, and the guests' discussions were equally offensive to her as well.
She was aware that Bailey had achieved her goal right down.

By proclaiming that Stanley could sing better than a professional singer in front of the crowd Bailey hadm already placed the two of them in a position where they could neither back down nor mess up their performance. Once the two of them sing badly on the stage, the crowd would have a reason to mock them for the rest of their lives.
"Xyla has never once told a lie since she was young." May glared at the jabbering guests and rebuked.
Subsequently, she deliberately held Jeremy's hand and whispered, "Honey, Xyla and Stan will definitely prove them wrong."
Though May was trying to reassure her husband on the surface, she could hardly stop herself from m laughing aloud inwardly. Prove them wrong? That was obviously impossible. On the contrary, both of them would only make a monkey out of themselves on the stage.
Standing behind May, Bailey was smirking as she stared at Xyla and Stanley's back, hoping that the two of them would be ridiculed by everyone soon.

Tom Sullivan was sitting next to her. Likewise, he looked forward to seeing the crowd make fun of Stanley. Stanley sang better than the professionals? Pfft! How was that even possible?
