Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 2461



Leon Batton nodded before heading into the fitting room to change into the midnight blue tuxedo.

Xyla Quest and Lte Batton were sitting on the couch when he walked out. They seemed pleasantly surprised by his look and smiled in satisfaction.

"Woah! You look like a completely different person!" Lte gasped out as her eyes widened.This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

"Looks like I've got good taste," Xyla declared proudly.

"Yes, Mommy. You do have good taste in clothes. I would have to learn from you," Lte complimented her mother.

Xyla studied her son, thinking that he looked even more distinguished after changing into formal attire. He exuded a more grounded vibe, giving him an impressive presence compared to his usual school uniform.

With money, clothes could change a person's entire appearance and impression.

"Don't bother trying the other outfits. We'll go with this one," Xyla said to the sales assistant with a thoughtful expression.

The day of Wilson Batton's birthday party arrived in the blink of an eye.

The party was held at Peace Mansion, the most exclusive and colonial-inspired property owned by the Batton family.

Located in the center of Atlantis, it was uniquely designed to have a peaceful ambiance with very low noise pollution.

It ticked all the creative boxes for designers who developed living quarters based on the concept of peace amidst the chaos. Such a place allowed homeowners to find a bubble of peace in the bustling city.

On this day, Xyla and Stanley Batton brought their teenagers to Peace Mansion much earlier than the expected arrival time.

The family of four wore traditional outfits, exuding extraordinary charm and class.

One might believe they were tycoons from the distant past from a fleeting glance.

"Mommy and Daddy, why don't you both go ahead and meet with Grandpa first? Leon and I want to practice elsewhere first," Lte said as she walked with her parents.

She wouldn't allow for any mistake to occur during their perfect surprise for their beloved grandfather.

"All right. I look forward to your performance," Xyla said encouragingly.

"Don't worry. Leon and I are well prepared this time. You'll all be pleasantly surprised," she replied confidently.

Leon nodded in agreement.

"Okay, we'll see you later," their

mother said, starting to walk further along when Lte suddenly reached out to stop her before she could take more than a few steps.

“Oh, right. Mommy, there's something I need your help with."

"Hmm? What is it?" Xyla seemed a little confused.

"We might need your help. If Grandpa and Grandma ask about us, tell them we're busy with something and can't be part of the celebration this time," she told her mother.

"Why should I say that?" A puzzled frown appeared on her mother's face.

"I want to create a mental gap. They'll certainly be disappointed if they thought we couldn't make it to the party. Then, the surprise would be twofold when they suddenly see us performing!"

Xyla chuckled at that. "What a creative idea. You're one smart cookie," she praised.

"Hehe, of course!" Lte immediately giggled.

“In that case, we'll look forward to your performance," Xyla said.

After saying goodbye to their parents, Lte pulled her brother along down another path and passed through an ancient-looking passageway. The siblings soon arrived at a small garden.
