Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 511

Xyla Quest glanced coldly at the two of them. Hand in hand and without warning, Xyla and Stanley Batton strode across the room and sat beside Jeremy Quest cheerfully. “Sorry Daddy, we’re late. We got stuck in the traffic.”

Xyla was sitting next to Jeremy while Stanley was next to Tom Sullivan.

“No worries, Xyla… We have just gotten here too,” May Conner responded with a friendly smile.

Likewise, Xyla returned her a polite smile.

“Are you feeling better now?” May asked again.

“Yeah,” Xyla answered indifferently and showed no interest in continuing the conversation.

“Waiter, the food can be served now.” Jeremy Quest casually waved at the waiter who was standing right beside their table.

Though it seemed as if the waiter had just left, the dishes were prepared quickly, and their orders arrived in no time. It was a feast, indeed. There were various arrays of food on the table, ranging from seafood to all kinds of meat and vegetables. When all the eighteen dishes had been served, the big round table had barely any space left uncovered by food.

After the last dish had been placed on the table, Jeremy put the candles on Xyla’s cake and lit them up.

Everyone began to sing the birthday song in unison for Xyla.

Then, Xyla made a wish in front of the cake before she blew out the candles.

Xyla was smiling from the beginning of the birthday song. She was clearly in a good mood the whole time.

Shortly after Xyla was done cutting the cake, she sat down and joined the others to drink and enjoy the meal.

Throughout the night, Tom could not stop himself from stealing glances at Xyla.

In comparison to the gloomy and eerie creature next to him, Xyla’s smile was so much more beautiful, and so was her face.

Xyla was like the brightest star shining in the sky.

Whereas Emily Quest, who was sitting right beside him, was the stinkiest rock in the gutter.

The more Xyla glowed, the more he regretted the decision he had made.

Had he known that Xyla could become so stunning, he would never have been seduced by Emily, that stinky little rock.

Though Xyla could feel that Tom’s eyes upon her, she could not care any less about him, she was focused on the food. From time to time, she would reach over with her chopstick to help refill Jeremy’s and Stanley’s bowls, paying no attention to Tom at all.
