Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 261

“Oh, that’s a small issue,” Josh remarked casually.

“How is this a small issue?” Xyla frowned. “It seems like the company needs to give you a few more bodyguards. Five is clearly not enough.”

“Are you really that concerned about me?”

Josh’s lips curled into a dazzling grin. His smile had a purification effect. In an instant, the air inside the car became more refreshing.

Xyla looked solemn. “Be serious.”

“Okay, okay, okay…” Josh’s eyes were filled with affection.

The light turned green and the car moved forward steadily.

About ten minutes later, Josh’s car stopped at the entrance of Serenity, a high-class western restaurant. Josh swiftly put on black sunglasses, a black cap, and a mask before leading Xyla into the restaurant, keeping a low profile.

Once inside, the handsome restaurant manager showed them to the luxurious private room on the second floor. The interior design was reminiscent of an European palace—bedazzled and extremely luxurious.

Besides the long, huge dining table, there was also a sofa and a wine cabinet. A rose-scented candle was lit, emitting a faint fragrance, relaxing their minds.

The two individuals sat at opposite ends of the table. Once they ordered, the manager quickly left the room and closed the door.

Josh leisurely removed his protective gear before quietly looking up quietly at Xyla’s face. His eyes were clear and his lips wore a smile. His entire being was emitting the clean and pure aura of youth. Being scrutinized quietly by him made Xyla feel her body going numb.
