Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 576

Bailey Ronson panted angrily while smashing her fists against the car seat several times. She gritted her teeth. “Emily, as I promised you earlier, I’ll let you hold the position of Tom Sullivan’s wife as long as you can help the Sullivan family survive through this crisis. With my support, your position will never be under threat.”

Emily Quest nodded obediently. “Don’t worry. I can do this. Just drop me off at any hotel. We’ll go with the original plan.”

“Good.” Bailey nodded.

“You understand, right? We can’t mess up this time. As long as you succeed, not only will your status in the Sullivan family be raised, but Tom will also change his impression of you,” Bailey continued to tempt her.

“I know.” Emily nodded once more.

After Emily and Bailey left the Quest family’s house, the living room returned to its original, peaceful state.

Noticing the gloomy expression etched on Jeremy Quest’s face, May Conner did not dare to make a sound anymore. She got up from the couch and went back to the kitchen quietly.

At noon, Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton stayed back to have lunch with Jeremy. Afterward, the pair strolled around the courtyard hand-in-hand.

Reluctant to part with her husband, Xyla held Stanley’s hand tightly as she stared deep at the vibrant, colorful courtyard blooming with all kinds of flowers. “What are you doing this afternoon?”

“I’m going back to my office to work. What about you?”

“Well, I have nothing to do today. I think I’ll go shopping later. Time to relax,” said Xyla.

“Why don’t you come with me? I’ll go shopping with you when I’m done,” Stanley offered.

“Are you sure? I’ll interrupt your work if I keep going to your office…”

“No. It’s fine.”

As he spoke, he urged Xyla ahead to his black Bentley Arnage with a gentle nudge. “Leave your car here. I’ll drive.”

Without waiting for her answer, Stanley pulled open the passenger seat’s door and pushed her into his car.

Xyla did not refuse either. She put on her seatbelt right away.

Stanley stroked her hair and whispered lovingly, “Good girl.”
