Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1844

Xyla Quest eyed Sebastian Brenand in curiosity. “Okay, sure. What is it?”

He pointed at Sophie Kenwick, who was entertaining herself with an iPad. “Can I have her?”

Xyla instantly frowned when she heard this. “Old habits die hard, huh? It hasn’t even been that long, has it?”

She genuinely thought that Sebastian had changed his ways, no longer his same old self.

As a woman, she thought that Rachel Wood deserved better.

Sebastian immediately sobered up when he heard this. “Of course not. I meant to ask if you could let me sign that girl as an artiste at my company. I think she has a lot of potential.”

A beautiful lady like Sophie Kenwick would certainly receive a lot of attention in the entertainment industry.

He could already see her bright future ahead.

Xyla heaved a sigh of relief at his words. “All right, I thought you’ve had a change of heart.”

“How’s that possible? I love Rachel with all my heart. That will never change, not until death do us part,” Sebastian declared, looking and sounding equally serious.

Xyla figured that he would soon swear an oath on his life.

“Fine, I believe you," she told him. "However, I can’t let you have Sophie.”

“Are you going to groom her on your own? Why are you making her your bodyguard if that’s the case?” he asked.

“I’m not going to groom her. She will just be my bodyguard,” she said firmly.

“Xyla, that is a huge waste of talent! Do you know how much profit this girl could bring you?” Sebastian asked, bewildered.

“If she enters the entertainment industry, she would get a lot of fans just with her looks. No, you can’t let talent like that go to waste. If you won’t groom her, then give her to me,” he insisted.

Sebastian felt very confused about her decision.

However, Xyla shook her head. “No.”
