Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 295

Xyla Quest sat at the coffee table and unpacked the takeaway food. However, she was in no mood to eat.

She suddenly felt a little lonely in this large house.

Since when did she start feeling this way?

Xyla had lost her appetite and did not even feel like cooking when she was alone.

In the past, Xyla was always able to cook on her own. There were lots of ingredients at home. While she bought some in preparation for the new year, her father sent the rest to her.

Was it because Xyla and Stanley Batton had always been eating together recently? Was that why it had become a habit to her?

Xyla was unable to figure it out, and she could not be bothered to. She picked up her chopsticks and began to eat the food she bought.

After Xyla finished eating, Chanel and LV employees sent the clothes Sharon Lindt had bought for Xyla to her house.

These items took up space on the coffee table, the couch, and the area around the coffee table.

When Xyla looked at these items, she felt a little annoyed.

It would take a lot of work to sort these things out and place them in her closet.

After letting out a long sigh, Xyla pressed her hand against her forehead and began moving one bag after another up the stairs.

Since there were no helpers in the house, Xyla had to do it all on her own.

By the time she was doing, it was already dusk.

Exhausted, Xyla did not feel like moving. She lay down on the bed and panted. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

This was the first time in her life she wanted to cry from sorting clothes out.

Although Xyla wanted to sleep right there and then, she recalled a dinner plan back at her parents’ home. After lying down for a while, she forced herself to get up and to take a bath before changing into her new clothes.

Xyla now wore a red knitted skirt from Chanel, black boots, and a white fur coat.

After that, she sat in front of the dressing table and carefully put on maple-shade make-up.

Her already distinctive facial features looked even better with the carefully selected make-up.

During the current season, the sunset was unusually early. By six o’clock, it was already dark outside.

When Xyla saw the time, she took her phone out to call Stanley. She wanted to remind him to come home earlier for dinner at her parents’ home.

Her father had explicitly mentioned that Stanley must return home.

Just as she unlocked her phone, it switched off because the battery was flat.

After that, all the lights in the villa went out.

Xyla could not see anything in the dark.

The complete darkness and silence made Xyla feel afraid. Carefully, she stood up and fumbled in the dark to look around for a torchlight.

However, she could not find it.

At that moment, Xyla could hear someone walking outside her room.

Due to the complete darkness, Xyla felt extremely afraid when she heard the sound.

Her scalp prickled as she subconsciously became alert.

What was going on? Could a criminal have broken into the villa? Did someone turn off the main electrical switch?

Xyla immediately held her breath as she tried to suppress her fear. Slowly and quietly, she made her way to the dear with her body close to the wall. She was prepared to fight at any moment.
