Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 810

Rachel Wood was all that was on his mind.

She had hurt him badly. She belonged to somebody else now.

Nevertheless, Sebastian Brenand could not stop thinking about her.

Though he thought of becoming a playboy again, he was simply not interested in other women anymore. Rachel was the only one in his mind and heart. He could not forget about her no matter how hard he tried.

He even doubted himself sometimes. Perhaps he had betrayed and disappointed too many innocent girls in the past. Rachel was simply divine retribution for his misdeeds.

“But that girl is different…” Sebastian’s mother said again.

“Mom… Please… Leave me alone, okay?”

Following that statement, Sebastian hung up the phone. He opened the gallery on his phone and found Rachel’s picture.

This was the only picture of her in his gallery.

In the picture, Rachel was wearing an apron, happily painting at the art studio. She looked as gentle as a dove.

Sebastian found her attractive when she painted, so he took a picture of her. That photo had been on his phone ever since.

When he returned from Edgewater, bruised and scarred, he had the urge to delete that photo.

However, he failed to do so.

After Xyla Quest finished her work at three o’clock in the afternoon, she went to the supermarket to buy groceries under her bodyguards’ watchful eyes. Then, she went home right away.

This was the first time her master stayed over at her house. She wanted to make a delicious meal for him.

When she returned home, Stanley Batton and Ron Batton were both not at home.

After putting all the groceries in the kitchen, Xyla gave Sharon Lindt a call to invite her, Wilson Batton, and Catherine Batton to come over and have dinner together.

Sharon accepted her invitation without hesitation.

After that, Xyla texted Stanley and informed him about the family dinner tonight.
