Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 403

Inside, there was an intricate jade bracelet that looked like it was of the highest quality.

May Conner smiled. “Thank you, Xyla… Thank you, Stan.”

Right then, Tony Sullivan walked in with Mary Sullivan and Bailey Ronson…

Mary was the most eye-catching of the three, wearing a little red evening gown with a high ponytail. There was a proud look in her eyes.

The moment Mary saw Xyla Quest, her gaze went cold.

The family made their way directly to May.

The two adults from the Sullivan family began exchanging pleasantries with May and Jeremy Quest while they offered best wishes for May’s birthday.

Xyla’s attention was entirely focused on the butterfly-shaped diamond pendant around Mary’s neck. She didn’t have any expression on her face.

Mary, who remained silent the entire time, shifted her attention to Xyla.

When Mary saw the necklace around Xyla’s neck, she immediately snorted coldly. “Xyla… Isn’t that Blue Romance around your neck?”

“What’s the matter?” Xyla asked.

Mary snorted coldly. “I remember this necklace. There’s only one in the world, right? The vice president’s wife bought it off the auction a few days ago. How did you manage to get another one just like it? She can’t possibly have given it to you. It costs millions of dollars. How could she just give it away?” Mary intentionally raised her voice.

She was doing it on purpose because she wanted everyone to know that Xyla was wearing a counterfeit necklace. Mary wanted to embarrass Xyla.

“How would you know if she gave it to me?” Xyla asked.

When the women around them heard what was said, they couldn’t help but shift their attention to Xyla’s neck and began whispering among themselves. There were sarcastic smiles on their faces.
