Chapter 1121
Fortunately, the two children next door were still young. The eldest sister, Elaine, was seven years old, while the
youngest brother, Dominic, was only four and a half. They were particularly well-behaved and wouldn’t cause any
trouble.
“Xyla, what is this?” Elaine had never seen a drone before, and she was curious about it.
“This is a drone, and it can take panoramic shots. We can see very far away through it too.” Xyla squatted on the
ground and taught her how to control it. “Come, I’ll teach you how to control it.”
Elaine nodded obediently as she watched Xyla control the drone diligently.
After Xyla had taught Elaine how to control the drone, she gave the control panel to her. “Come, give it a try.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtElaine looked at her and took the control panel carefully. A smile broke across Xyla’s face when she saw Elaine
carefully control the drone as she had taught her.
Suddenly, her phone rang. It was a call from her father. She walked to the side and answered the call. “Dad?”
“Where are you?” asked Mr. Mayweather.
Xyla replied simply, “I… I’m on a business trip.”
“Business trip? Okay, let me ask you a question. Are you dating Yorrick?” “What? No, I’m not dating Yorrick.” “You
still don’t want to tell me the truth? Both of you were captured by a paparazzo together last night. The Internet, the
magazines, and the newspapers are filled with news about you and Yorrick. Some of the reporters even have come
to me.”
Xyla was stunned. She did not expect someone to capture both her and Yorrick in a photo the previous night.
She tried to calm herself down and took a deep breath. “Dad, we-”
“Xyla, is he threatening you?” Mr.
Mayweather asked before Xyla could say anything, stunning Xyla.
She hastily pitched her voice low and replied, “How did you know, Dad?”
“I knew it!’ Mr. Mayweather was both upset and disappointed. “How dare that brat threaten my daughter!?”
“Dad, I have no other choice. Since he can put me on the blacklist, he can do whatever he wants to our family as
well. I don’t want my family to go bankrupt and become homeless.” Mr. Mayweather said exasperatedly, “Even if he
can do that, Zlokovia isn’t his territory, and he can only threaten us at most. Besides, even if he wants to do
something to Royal Crown, he still needs to go through the Blackgold Group. You….
How could you be so foolish and get fooled by that b*stard?”
Xyla was momentarily stunned, and her expression changed. “He’s fooling me?” “Yes! Do you really think Yorrick is
here to do business? He’s a sly old fox like Mr. Goldmann. You’re no match for him at all. Do you think he will invest
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmin something that won’t bring him any profit? “What could he get from putting you on the blacklist? He invests in
‘The Clouds.” Do you know how much money he’ll lose if he puts you on the blacklist before the film is released?
He’s a businessman, and he’s just toying you around. There’s no way he would do something like that that wouldn’t
bring him any profit. Besides, he still has to watch out for Mr. Goldmann if he wants to do something to Royal
Crown. Do you think he’s stupid?”
Mr. Mayweather lashed out at Xyla, but she hung up the call.
She grabbed her phone tightly, trying her best to suppress her anger. She stormed back into the house and started
packing her stuff. The voice of the person in charge talking to the children came from outside, and Elaine said it
was Xyla who had taught her to control the drone. Soon, Yorrick pushed the door open and came into the house.
When he saw that Xyla was packing her stuff, he narrowed his eyes . “Where are you going?”
Xyla continued to pack her stuff without looking at him. “I’m going back.”
She turned around with her luggage, but Yorrick blocked her way. He followed wherever she went, refusing to let
her go out. Xyla snapped and tried to push him away.
He dodged sideways before her hand could touch him. Just when she lost her balance and was about to fall down,
he reached out for her and grabbed her into his arms. “Who said you can go back?”
