Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 2458



Leon Batton didn't reply and continued eating silently. His cheeks were slightly red.

Xyla Quest couldn't help but chuckle when she saw that.

"Girls should also learn to protect themselves. Don't let anyone touch you inappropriately until you meet someone you'd marry,” she advised, addressing Lte Batton this time.

Her daughter merely nodded.

Meanwhile, Hannah Roland went to work at the mart right after school ended. However, she seemed distracted as she replenished stock on the racks.

"What's taking so long to place those items?" her manager questioned behind her.

She shook herself from her reverie at the sound of his voice and hastily straightened up to apologize. "I'm sorry, I was a little preoccupied earlier. It won't happen again."

“It's fine, forget it. Just hurry up and finish placing those items."

Fortunately, her boss was a forgiving person. He waved his hand and let her off the hook.

"Thank you, Boss," Hannah said gratefully.

Her boss seemed to be in a better mood then. She sighed in relief after he turned around and left.

'Hannah, oh, Hannah. Stop obsessing over what happened today!' she thought to herself.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

She shook her head and gathered her thoughts before quickly placing the rest of the goods on the racks.

It was already nine in the evening when she finished her shift.

Exhausted, she returned to her humble rented abode, collapsing onto her bed with a big sigh.

Her attention stopped momentarily at a small slice of toast on the table nearby. She got lost in thought again, wondering if she should continue sending the toast tomorrow?

After some consideration, she stood up to retrieve a piece of paper, and started writing a letter to Leon.

She poured out everything that happened during physical education class and then placed the letter into an envelope.

She was about to keep it in a box under the table when she suddenly realized it was gone.

'What happened to the box?'

That box contained all the letters she had ever written for Leon. It was her most prized possession.

With that thought in mind, she

couldn't find it anywhere.

'Where could it be?'

Hannah still couldn't find it after several attempts. There was nothing else to do except give up.

Soon, she felt tired and went to lay down.

The break of dawn soon arrived. Sunlight streamed in through the balcony, filling the room gradually.

Leon's curled eyelashes fluttered

slightly upon waking, his handsome features illuminated by a ray of light.

He looked so angelic then.

He dragged himself from the bed to brush his teeth and freshen up for the day. Lte was already halfway through breakfast when he arrived downstairs. "Leon, come and have some breakfast," she said, beckoning for him to join her. She looked so adorable with a piece of toast still in her mouth as she spoke. "Okay."

Leon joined his sister at the dining 、 table and sat down. He picked up a glass of water and took a sip,

ignoring the piece of toast in front of him.

"Why aren't you eating?" she asked out of curiosity.

"I'll eat at school later," he answered.

"I thought you hated the cafeteria food at school." Lte seemed confused as she scratched her head.

"I've recently started liking it," he shrugged.

"Ahh, you like the specially-made toast from your special someone, don't you?" she teased.
