Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 219

When Xyla led Lana and Josh out of the venue after the crowd, the snow had started falling outside.

The entire world was blanketed in white.

As her legs were bare, it felt like knives were carving onto her flesh when the cold breeze blew.

In an instant, there were goosebumps on her fair white legs.

However, she remained unfazed as she continued forward.

Snowflakes fell onto their heads like tender swan feathers, barely melting away.

Josh was the first to stop. He looked at Xyla gently and smiled, asking, “Are you really not coming to supper with us?”

Xyla shook her head and rubbed her hands together. “I’m really not going. I have to return to the office.”

Josh added, “Do you want me to send you ladies back?”

Xyla replied, “No need… We drove here.”

The photographer spoke up due to the cold, “Brother Josh, it’s too cold. Let’s get back into the car.”

Josh glanced at him before waving at Xyla. “I’ll be taking my leave then…”

He swiftly took off his suit jacket and stuffed it into Xyla’s hands. “Hurry back into the car. If you’re still cold, cover yourself with my jacket. I’m leaving.”

The jacket was still warm from his body’s warmth. As it fell into her ice-cold hands, Xyla immediately felt her hands warming up.

The faint scent of Jo Malone’s Oud & Bergamot cologne invaded her nose, soothing her senses.
