Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 449

Immediately after he ended his sentence, Jeremy Quest continued. “Worry not, Xyla. I’ll deal with him for you.”

Xyla simply laughed gently. “Don’t be hasty, dad. The woman in the picture is his blood-related sister.”

“What?!” Jeremy was stunned for a moment.

“Yes, she’s been studying overseas all this time. Don’t be angry with him anymore, I’m doing very well with my husband,” Xyla explained in a serious but calm voice.

“That’s… That’s great to hear…” Jeremy sighed in relief as he slowly calmed down.

After she was done explaining, Xyla continued to talk with Jeremy for a while. Nearing the end, the smile on her face faded and she began to furrow her brows again.

Once the call ended, Jeremy immediately went to the washroom.

Emily Quest could barely hold her excitement and whispered in May Conner’s ear, “Mary Sullivan’s definitely done a good job this time!”

May snorted, pleased with the situation. “Let’s see whether that brat can still be as arrogant as she usually is after this.”

Emily didn’t reply, but she cupped her hands over her mouth as she secretly smiled.

A flushing sound was heard and the mother and daughter immediately ceased their whispering. Emily quickly put on her usual depressed facade.

After washing his hands, Jeremy walked out of the washroom.

May Conner pretended to be worried and stood up. She slowly walked toward Jeremy before asking, “Darling? Is Xyla going to be okay?”

Emily could barely hold her anticipation for his answer but she continued to look toward the floor, still pretending to be depressed.
