Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1892

Gary Lakes briefly perused Sophie Kenwick up and down.

He then chuckled. “Hmm, she is not my girlfriend.”

“But she said she’d get her boyfriend to teach me a lesson. Wasn’t she talking about you?” Sophie asked.

He smiled. There was a look in his eyes that was difficult to read. “She’s the only one who thinks so.”

She winked knowingly. “Oh? Does that mean it’s all in her head?”

Gary studied her thoughtfully for a few seconds. “Sometimes, sleeping together doesn’t mean two people become a couple.”

Sophie nodded slowly before scratching her head. “In the words of people in your era, does it mean that although everyone wants everlasting love, we all live in a time when even sleeping together doesn’t mean love can last for a long time?”

Gary’s smile gradually widened after hearing what she said.

“Yeah, that’s what it means. But what do you mean by people in our era? Are you from an ancient past?” He grinned from ear to ear.

Sophie started to nod but then worried that he might be afraid or think she was a lunatic, so she hastily shook her head instead.

The way she nodded and shook her head was silly and adorable at the same time.

Gary smiled once again. “What kind of reaction was that?”

Sophie also imitated him and thought deeply for a few seconds. “Hmm, it’s a normal one.”

“You’re quite interesting. I had no idea Stanley adopted an adorable girl like you,” he told her.

Although Gary and Stanley were close friends, he had only heard about his adopted sister over the news.

Sophie chuckled.

At that moment, the woman next to them was petrified.

‘Brother?’
