Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 4

When Emily Quest’s hand moved downward, Xyla Quest quickly grabbed Emily’s hand and stared right into her eyes. “I don’t know what you are talking about.”

When Emily caught sight of Xyla’s eyes, she shivered.-

Emily felt that Xyla had changed.

Although Xyla’s physical appearance was the same as before, she felt somewhat more heartless.

“Xyla Quest, stop denying it. You are only pretending to be calm today. In actual fact, you are extremely hurt that I got engaged to the man you love the most.

“You’re just jealous that Brother Sullivan and I are in love with each other. That’s why you’re doing all this to destroy my life.”

Xyla could not help but laugh coldly.

What a joke. Was she jealous? Did an a**hole like Tom Sullivan even deserve her?

“What are you laughing at? Do my words ring true? Is that why you are speechless?” Emily asked.

“Emily Quest, you are the only one who could be happy about being married to a trashy person. You think everyone in the world would be jealous of you.” Xyla felt that Emily was an absolute joke.

Right then, Tom Sullivan happened to have walked out of the door and overheard Xyla’s words. He immediately felt hurt.

‘Trashy person?’

Did Xyla not use to worship him like an idol? She would talk about getting married to him all day and wanting to give him many children.

“Keep pretending. I wonder who has always dreamt about being married to Brother Sullivan,” Emily countered.

“Like you said, it was in the past,” Xyla said.

“You… I don’t care what you say. I am certain you are the one who did this! If it’s not out of jealousy, it’s out of hate!”

“Show me the proof then,” Xyla said calmly.

“I don’t need proof. I’ll kill you right now, you evil woman.” Emily reached out toward Xyla ’s neck.

In an agile movement, Xyla managed to dodge the attack. As a result, Emily slipped and fell to the ground.

“That’s enough!” Tom called out before hurrying over to Emily to help her up. However, his eyes never left Xyla’s body.

The look in his eyes made Emily feel even more jealous. “Brother Sullivan, Xyla Quest is bullying me.”

“Xyla Quest, we once loved each other after all. Must you force me into a dead end? Can’t we talk about this?” Tom seemed unhappy.

“Tom Sullivan, did you hear about it or see it with your own eyes? If you don’t have proof, keep your mouth shut. Even if I was the one who did it, what right do you have to question me about it?” Xyla felt disgusted that she used to love a man like this.

As soon as Xyla finished her sentence, she lifted her gown a little and walked away.

Feeling insulted, Tom could not find the words to express himself. Whatever Xyla said was irrefutable.

“Why are you still standing there? Get someone to catch her and beat her up. It must be her who did it!” Emily exclaimed.

“That’s enough! Do you have proof? Can you grow some brains?” Tom was already mad and could find no other way to vent his emotions. As such, Emily naturally became his punching bag.

Although Emily had wanted to insult him in return, she stomped her feet and remained quiet.

As soon as Xyla entered the elevator, she received a call from Georgie Clementine. “President Xyla, haven’t you always wanted to sign Josh Batton onto our label? I just received news that he won’t be renewing his contract with his existing company. Hence, I have invited him for a meeting at eight o’clock tonight in the Southern Misty Lake Room of Dreamland Hotel.”

“Got it.”
