Chapter 1095
Xyla lifted her head and offered Marione a smile, “You know me the best, Marione.” Howard lifted the glass and
said, “Alright, alright. Our food is getting cold. Let’s eat while we talk.”
The rest of the people lifted their glasses and offered each other a toast. The dinner lasted for two hours. Everyone
had drunk some wine, and they had a lot of fun together.
Xyla was able to hold her liquor, but when she reached her limit, she would get lightheaded. She tripped herself
when she was walking toward the entrance, and Howard hurriedly went forward to support her. “You’re not drunk,
are you?” She waved her hand and said, “Yeah, don’t worry. I’m still sober.”
Howard grabbed her shoulder. “Let me send you back.”
Before Xyla could say anything, another hand pulled her away from Howard’s hand out of nowhere. She stumbled a

few steps back and fell into the incoming man’s arms. “She doesn’t need you to send her back.
Xyla was momentarily stunned before she lifted her head to look at the man behind her. She became sober and
exclaimed, “It’s you!?”
Yorrick did not say anything in return. He just ordered his bodyguard to get his car.
Howard looked at him and asked, “May I ask about the relationship between you and Xyla, Mr. Hathaway?” Yorrick
let out a smile and grabbed her into his arms. “What do you think?” When Xyla struggled to free herself from his
embrace, he pressed her head harder toward his chest and brought her away.
They went into the elevator, and it took Xyla a lot of strength to push him away. She stumbled a few steps and
rammed toward the wall. “Are you insane?”
Yorrick pressed the button, and the elevator started going down. He looked at the woman, who reeked of booze,
but he did not say anything.
Xyla was struck by a dizzy spell and squatted down. When the door of the elevator was opened, Yorrick went
forward and pulled her up from the floor.

The bodyguard was already waiting in the car. He shoved her into the backseat, and Xyla suddenly sat up straight.
She combed through her hair with her fingers and said,” Are you trying to kill me, Yorrick?” “I hope I can do that as
well.” He closed the door and ordered the bodyguard to start the car.
The bodyguard gazed at him through the rear mirror and asked, “Mr. Hathaway, are we sending Ms. Mayweather
back to her house or-”
“What makes you think that I need you to send me back?” Xyla interrupted. She tried to open the door but could
not. She pounced toward the bodyguard, grabbed his collar, and shouted, “Open the door!”
Fortunately, the bodyguard hadn’t started the car yet. He looked at Xyla helplessly and said, “Ms. Mayweather,
you’re drunk.”
I’m not drunk! Open the door now! Otherwise, I’ll call the cops and say you’re abducting me!”
Seeing that Xyla was about to tear the bodyguard’s shirt apart, Yorrick pulled her back, and she fell into his arms.

He went stiff for a moment. When she realized she had sat on something, she sprang up and sat on the
side.
She gazed down but swiftly averted her gaze. Yorrick caught her gaze and said blatantly, “Have you never eaten
any fish that you rear, Ms. Mayweather?”
Xyla let out a burp. She reeked of booze so thick that the fragrance in the car couldn’t cover it.
“Why should I eat the fish that I rear? Can’t I rear them for fun? I have a lot of money, and I can rear however
many I want. Not only that, but I’m also going to rear ducks!” The bodyguard stifled a smile while Yorrick placed his
hand on his forehead and chuckled. “Do you think you’re opening a farm? Do you have the money to take care of
so many animals?”
Xyla went closer and stared at him intently. “You’re looking down on me?”
She grabbed the collar of his shirt weakly and shouted, “You b*stard!”
Yorrick’s eardrum nearly exploded from her shout. He pointed at Xyla’s nose and said, “Let go.” “Never!” Xyla
exerted more strength on her hands, pulling one of the buttons on his collar out and exposing his skin to the air.
The bodyguard looked at her through the rear mirror and sucked in air sharply. Initially, he had been under the
impression that Xyla was a reserved woman. He did not expect her to be so wild, and it seemed to him that their
next destination would be the hotel.
