Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1564

The call was from an unknown number…

When Rachel Wood saw this, she immediately picked up the call curiously. “Hello…”

“Is this Miss Rachel Wood? I’m the person-in-charge you met in the afternoon at the police station…”

“Yes…” Rachel said.

“We’re now in front of your building, but the door to the building is locked. There wasn’t any response when we pressed on your house’s number… Could I trouble you to come down and open the door for us?” The person’s tone sounded very polite.

When Rachel heard this, she instantly stood up and put on her white knitted sweater that she hung on a chair. “Okay, sure. I’ll be right down…” She said while preparing to head out.

With that, Rachel hung up the phone.

Sebastian Brenand quickly stood up when he saw this. He pressed Rachel back down to her seat. “Continue eating. I’ll get the door… It’s very exhausting for you to run up and down…”

There wasn’t a lift in their building. So they’d need to take the stairs whenever they wanted to walk up or down. Indeed, it was pretty exhausting…

Before Rachel could speak, Sebastian already walked out the door.

Meanwhile, Rachel quietly picked up her dining utensils and continued to eat.

Seeing how diligent Sebastian appeared, Rachel’s parents started smiling gladly.

Rachel’s mother slowly placed a piece of braised pork rib in front of Rachel. “Rachel, you’ve found a keeper. This kid is rich, hard-working, and he’s even nice to you… He really is one-of-a-kind…”

Rachel felt extremely happy after hearing how her mother praised Sebastian.

“Hmm… That’s right,” Rachel said as she carefully nibbled on the pork rib.

“Yes… Rachel, you must appreciate this wonderful man you met. Make sure you grab onto him tightly. This is perhaps the only opportunity you get to meet a good man like him… If you don’t keep him, you’ll never find another one like him,” Rachel’s father added earnestly.

Now, the only thing Rachel’s father hoped for was for his daughter to marry Sebastian and stay together forever.

As an experienced man, he could tell how wonderful Sebastian was.
