Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 741

He took another puff on his cigarette and gritted his teeth at the night skies. “Rachel… Where the hell are you… I miss you so much!”

Buzz buzz buzz…

Right at that moment, his phone vibrated again.

Seeing Jean Hanson’s name on the screen, he sprang from the couch and answered the call right away. “Jean, is there any update about Rachel?”

“Master Sebastian, I just found out that Miss Rachel has gone back to her hometown, Edgewater.”

“Address. Give me her address now!”

“I’ll send it to you on WeChat.”

***

Sebastian Brenand received the address from Jean within a second or two.

Without hesitation, he took his private plane and flew to Edgewater.

It was four o’clock in the morning when he arrived at her hometown.

As soon as the plane landed, he rented a car at the airport and sped right to Rachel Wood’s house like a brat losing his mind.

Rachel’s house was located in an ordinary neighborhood in the district.

There was no one guarding the neighborhood. People could just walk in and out of the neighborhood freely.

The lights in most of the apartments were switched off at this hour.

There were only a few houses that had their lights on.

Sebastian drove into the neighborhood, anxiously roaming through the streets. Finally, he managed to find the building where Rachel and her family were staying.

Though it was late, and he was exhausted, Sebastian could not contain his excitement when he saw that building. His sleepiness was all gone.

He looked up at the sixth floor. Rachel must be somewhere there.

There was a room in that building with the light on.

That warm yellow light was wonderfully soothing.

At that moment, Sebastian felt like he was rescued. Lost in the ocean with no lights, he was a lost boy enveloped by total darkness. He finally found a glint of light in his life, comforting his empty heart.

All the anxiety, frustration, and uneasiness that overwhelmed him had all vanished now.
