Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 779

Matt Leopold immediately nodded. “Erm… What about our lunch?”

Xyla Quest nodded in response. “Yeah, sure. Let’s grab a bite after this. It’s on me.”

A ripple of excitement spread across Matt and the rest when they heard her answer.

After all, Lily was a legendary existence in the architectural field. She was gifted, yet mysterious and secretive…

She had countless admirers, but no one had ever seen her. She had never accepted any interviews, either.

Despite the admirers’ daunting eagerness, seeing Lily in real life was nothing but a mere fantasy.

However, a prodigious opportunity had now come to the few of them. They couldn’t contain their exhilaration at this point.

“Xyla, since you’re so capable, I think I should hand over the company’s design department to you from now on. In addition to the sales department, I hope that you can do your best in leading the design team, too,” Jeremy Quest said while patting Xyla’s shoulder, his eyes brimming with acknowledgment.

Upon hearing that, raw anger shot through Emily Quest.

Emily glared at Xyla in exasperation before lowering her head and heading to the staircase, intending to leave the stage.

Noticing her sister was running away, Xyla immediately called out to her, “Wait a minute, Emily…”

Emily stopped in her tracks and turned to look at her with irritation. “What do you want?”

“May I know where you get your blueprint from?” Xyla asked.

At the mention of that stolen blueprint, Emily’s heart threatened to escape from her throat. She started to glance around the hall, absent-mindedly. “What are you trying to say? I drew it, of course! Do you have a problem with that?”
