Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 268

“I have a pair of scissors in my room. If this doesn’t work, let’s use it,” said Xyla.

She could not stand being stuck so closely to Stanley. If this continued, she was afraid that her heart might stop beating.

“Alright. Come with me, slowly,” said Stanley while he led her into the room.

Xyla pointed at the nightstand. “The scissors are in the drawer of my nightstand.”

Without saying a word, Stanley slowly led her to the bed and the two of them sat down together. Carefully, he reached out to the drawer to get the scissors. As soon as he moved, Xyla yelped in pain.

“Wait a second. It hurts…” she said.

Still staying silent, Stanley pressed her head naturally against his chest while he reached for the scissors. In this affectionate pose, a multitude of feelings were growing at a rapid rate. Xyla began to feel an itch in her heart. There was also a numbing sensation.

Soon, Stanley was able to grab the scissors. He carefully cut off that strand of hair before putting the scissors down and gently pushing Xyla away.

“It’s done,” he said.

Xyla sighed in relief before nudging away a little further, trying to put as much distance between them as possible. Meanwhile, she had no idea that she was sitting on a corner of his robe and the string attached to it.

Still feeling pain on her scalp, Xyla gently rubbed her head. However, she did not dare look Stanley in the eyes right then. Instead, she turned to look at the nighttime scenery outside the window.

“Thank you,” she said.

“Does your scalp hurt?” Stanley asked gently.

“Yes,” she replied with a nod.

“Let me see.”

“It’s okay…”

But before she could finish her sentence, Stanley forcefully tilted her head to one side and examined her scalp. Due to the constant tugging, that part of her scalp had turned slightly red.

“It’s turned a little red, but it’s fine. I’ll rub it for you,” he said while frowning a little and gently rubbing her head.

It felt as if his fingers contained an endless amount of electricity. Wherever he touched her, Xyla felt a tingling sensation. She even forgot to breathe. The most exciting moments usually happened unintentionally.

“It’s okay. I can do it myself…”

“Don’t move.”

“It’s getting late. Go to bed,” Xyla said decisively before quickly pushing his hand away.

She was completely unaware that she was sitting on the string attached to his robe. After all of Xyla’s tugging throughout the ordeal, the knot keeping the robe together had now loosened.

“Rub it yourself then,” said Stanley.

“Alright…” replied Xyla.

As Stanley stood up, the string attached to his robe was pulled away, because Xyla was still sitting on it, and also because he stood up too quickly. It immediately loosened even more.

“Goodnight,” said Stanley, turning around to look at Xyla. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Since the string coming loose and him turning around happened at the same time, Stanley was not able to react in time. In the next instant, his robe fell wide open and his naked body was fully displayed…

When the two had sex before, it had happened at night when it was very dark. Xyla had not been able to see his body clearly then. Now, the lights in the room were very bright. She could see everything.

Xyla immediately covered her eyes. “Five Batton, what are you doing? Why aren’t you wearing anything?”

Stanley was equally stunned by what had suddenly happened, but he was able to calm down very quickly. A faint smile appeared on his face. After glancing briefly at her, Stanley slowly picked up the string on the ground and tied it around his waist.

“Aren’t I wearing clothes?” he asked.

“I meant, why didn’t you wear anything on the inside?”

“I just took a shower and had forgotten about it.”

By then, he had already finished tying the string around his waist.

“I’m done,” he said.

Xyla slowly opened her eyes. When she noticed that his clothes were properly worn, she let out a long sigh. What happened a moment ago truly was awkward. Now, she did not even have the courage to stay in the same space as him.

“It’s not like you haven’t seen it before. Why are you embarrassed?” Stanley teased. His facial expression had not changed.

“Shameless. Get out,” said Xyla with a slight frown.

She quickly turned her head around. Her face was turning red again.
