Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 582

After they kissed for a long while, Stanley Batton held Xyla Quest’s face in his hands while rubbing her cheeks with his thumbs. “Go ahead and play your game,” he said.

Blushing, Xyla pushed him away and hopped off the desk. When she landed on the ground, her body tipped forward because she lost her balance.

Subconsciously, she hugged him to hold herself steady.

Stanley pinched Xyla’s chin softly with a playful look in his eyes. “Do you want to continue kissing me that badly? Hmm?” He asked.

Xyla immediately blushed as her heart began to pound. “Jerk. I lost my balance. That’s all.”

Stanley’s smile widened, and he kissed Xyla on her soft, smooth lips. “We’ll continue tonight. I’ve got a lot of work to do for now,” he said.

“Who wants to continue doing anything with you?” Xyla gently pushed him away before returning to the couch with an annoyed expression on her face.

Looking at her from behind, Stanley couldn’t help but chuckle a little. He then sat down at his desk.

He was still feeling the hots for Xyla on the inside.

Quickly, Xyla sat with her legs crossed before picking up the laptop. Her heart was still pounding.

To make her heartrate normal again, she decided to focus on playing another match instead.

In the evening, the sun set against the city that was gradually getting brighter with newly turned-on lights.

The large office was tinted with a warm orange hue.

Xyla was feeling tired from playing her game. After quickly ending a match, she turned off her laptop and stretched lazily.

She then turned to look at Stanley, who was sitting behind his desk.

Xyla didn’t realize it, but Stanley had put on a pair of glasses with golden frames at some point. The pair of glasses had a thin, gold chain attached to its base.

The combination of the suit and tie he wore, coupled with his exquisitely handsome looks and how he looked when he focused on his work, Stanley looked even more like a dashing gentleman.

This was the first time Xyla had seen Stanley in glasses, and he looked so good that a lot of women would probably be captivated by the sight of him.

Stanley decisively signed on a document before indicating that he was done with work by placing the documents next to him. As soon as he looked up, he turned to face Xyla.
