Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 436

Twelve noon, sharp.

Noah Smith arrived at Hilton hotel’s rooftop on time.

Catherine Batton was already there.

She was wearing a furry, pink, knitted cardigan from Chanel. Her outfit was complemented with a white shirt, a short blue skirt, and a pair of white shoes.

Her blonde hair was naturally straight and her bangs reached her eyebrows. Catherine’s red beanie only made her look cuter than she already was. She stood before the rooftop fence, her back facing him.

“Still playing dumb, Noah? Well since you don’t get it I’ll spell it out for you.” Catherine was fuming with anger.

Noah nodded. “I do know this… What’s your point?”

Catherine’s anger peaked as she heard his calm response. Her voice grew deeper. “What’s your point? What do you mean what’s your point are you still playing dumb?”

This only made poor Noah even more confused. “I really don’t get what you’re trying to tell me…”
