Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1771

The only explanation was that the nine-tailed fox was the one messing with Xyla Quest…

Xyla immediately tried to switch on her phone.

However, it didn’t work.

Xyla became even more panicked. She walked over to the nightstand and picked up the landline.

She was even more shocked when she put the receiver against her ear.

She couldn’t hear any sound from the receiver.

Moreover, the phone didn’t seem to respond at all.

It was like a toy phone that had run out of battery.

The phone was fine yesterday…

What else could it have been if not the nine-tailed fox’s doing?

It was trapping Xyla here and stopping her from leaving. In fact, it wouldn’t even let her contact anyone else. Was it going to punish her right there and then?

Xyla felt even more scared when she thought about it.

Regardless of how calm she appeared on the outside, she was still afraid of dying.

Her survival instincts kicked in, and she began thinking quickly on her feet.

After glancing at the window, she decided to escape through it.

As the thought occurred to her, she hastily walked over to the window and tried to open it.

While she tried to open the window, she shouted at the security guards clearing snow in the courtyard. “Help…”

She repeatedly hit the glass window as she cried for help.

However, there seemed to be some sort of barrier between her and the outside.

Regardless of how loud she screamed, people outside couldn’t hear her at all.

Some of the bodyguards would unintentionally look her way, but none seemed to have seen her.
