Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 519

Nevertheless, Emily Quest could not find anything to eat even though she had searched the whole kitchen.

Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of some perfectly untouched sunny-side-up and sandwiches in the trash can.

Pfft…

Did Bailey Ronson just throw away her breakfast?

Speechless with Bailey’s vileness, Emily stomped her foot furiously in the kitchen. However, she managed to regain her composure within a second or two and returned to Bailey’s side with a depressed face again. “Mom, I’m going to visit Mary Sullivan later. Can you go with me?”

“Go by yourself if you want to. Why should I go with you?” Bailey snarled, her attitude as cold-hearted as usual.

Emily snorted and pretended to accidentally drop her phone on her yoga mat.

As the phone landed on the yoga mat, Bailey’s face darkened instantaneously. She picked up the phone and glared at Emily, “What’s wrong with you?”

When Bailey stole a glance at the phone screen, she was frozen to the ground.

A picture of a man and its household register profile were displayed on the screen, his name was Stanley Batton.

“Who the hell is this person in the picture? Why is he so ugly? And why is his name Stanley Batton too?” Bailey looked disgusted.

Immediately, Emily retrieved her phone from Bailey’s hand as fast as she could, pretending to be nervous. “N… Nothing…”

Noticing the changes in Emily’s expression, Bailey knew that she was up to something.

She rose to her feet instantly and grasped Emily’s wrist, trying to pry the details out of her. “Tell me. What’s going on? Why do you have this picture on your phone? Why are you so nervous when I see it?”

“It’s nothing, nothing that I can think of, Mom.” Emily kept shaking her head.

Intuition told Bailey that something was wrong with her as well as the man in the picture.

Otherwise, Emily would not react this way.
