Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 81

“Emily Quest, how could you do something like this? Don’t you think that’s too much?” Tom Sullivan asked with a frown.

“There’s something even worse,” Xyla Quest glanced at Emily coldly before pouring herself another glass of fruit juice.

“There’s another voice recording down there. Open it up,” Xyla said while she took a sip.

Emily immediately felt panicked. What else could there be? Was there proof of her asking someone to make the whole thing up? That can’t be. Please, no!

If that came out at the same time, Emily was doomed.

Emily eyed Xyla up and down nervously. She did not dare to even look at Jeremy’s face while she proceeded to open the second voice recording with trembling hands.

“I didn’t want to make anything up. Emily Quest kept asking me to do it. We are friends. Therefore, it was difficult for me to reject her. She said she would never let Imperial Prime perform well in its sales. She could not allow Xyla Quest to succeed so easily. Hence, she wanted to create a rumor so that the sold units would be refunded. The entire program would fail in Xyla’s hands.” The person who said this was Emily’s good friend, Muffy, who was also a professional hacker.

‘Oh, god. Has he been captured? Didn’t he have excellent anti-spying abilities? Why were they able to catch him so soon?’ Emily thought while her mind began to run wild after hearing the recordings.

Her hands were trembling even harder now.

No…

This should not have been how things turned out. Why was Xyla this powerful? Shouldn’t Xyla be the unlucky one today? Why was it Emily again? Emily had happily invited Tom over so that he could see Xyla being treated like a fool.

However, what had happened instead? Emily ended up kicking herself on the back! Why was God always on Xyla’s side?
