Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 99

Stanley Batton had given Xyla Quest the perfect answer yet again.

“Tell me the truth. Have you really not such prior knowledge?” Xyla seemed very doubtful.

“Yes,” Stanley answered.

“You are way too smart. Although I think of myself as a genius, I am far slower than you when it comes to learning,” Xyla said.

“I’m alright,” Stanley said calmly as usual. The look in his eyes had not changed at all.

“Stop being so modest. You’re not just alright. You are amazing,” Xyla could not resist giving him the thumbs up.

“Oh,” Stanley said.

“It’s getting late. We’ll stop here for today. Tomorrow… Oh, no. It’s already past twelve. Therefore, it’s a new day. Can we continue tonight?” Xyla asked.

“Sure,” Stanley said before standing up slowly and picking up his black windbreaker coat.

He covered her body with the coat and even fastened one of the buttons.

“What are you doing?” Xyla asked.

“It’s snowing outside. It’ll be cold,” Stanley said before walking out of the room.

When Xyla looked at Stanley from behind, she felt a warmth in her heart.

Once she turned around, she noticed that it was snowing heavily outside.

Just as the door was about to shut behind Stanley, Xyla ran after him and caught up with him.

“I don’t need it. My car is right outside anyway,” Xyla said.

“Stop being so fearless. Your body is affected by a chill right now,” Stanley said as he continued to walk down the stairs with his head lowered.

Every man and woman who walked past them would gasp at their good looks.

“Do you want to freeze to death out there in these clothes?” Xyla asked.

“I have a car too. If you don’t stop spewing nonsense, our agreement will be cancelled,” Stanley said determinedly.

Xyla was speechless for a second. She then ran after him and turned to look at his cold expression.

“I’m the creditor. Shouldn’t I be in charge here?” Xyla asked.
