Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1891

Her boyfriend was Gary Lakes, a man with powerful connections in Atlantis.

She could afford to be arrogant without the need to be afraid of anyone. There weren’t many people who would mess with her in Atlantis right now.

Sophie Kenwick, however, didn’t show any fear at all. “Who do you think you are?”

“Okay, I hope you won’t regret what you said and beg on your knees later,” the woman said.

“Right back at you,” Sophie replied.

The woman glared at her before walking over to Gary, who was taking a nap. She leaned forward carefully and peered at him. "Honey, there's someone here threatening me. Are you going to help me?”

Hearing her voice, Gary opened his eyes slowly. “What happened?”

“That lady was looking for trouble out of nowhere. She even hit me. Look, she slapped me,” the woman accused.

Gary glanced at her. “Who was it?”

The woman pointed at Sophie, who was behind her. “That's her.”

He looked toward the direction she pointed through the rearview mirror and saw Sophie.

In an instant, his facial expression turned hostile.

The woman was pleased with his reaction, knowing that her ploy of playing victim worked.

The girl was going to pay for her actions soon enough.

‘Hehe, this b*tch better start praying. Idiot,’ the woman thought.

Her boyfriend was surely going to teach her a lesson.

Sophie nodded with a look of confusion on her face. “Yeah, who are you?”

She found his reaction extremely odd, like it wasn't supposed to happen that way, logically speaking.

Meanwhile, the woman next to him felt even more confused.

What was going on? Why was Gary so friendly to Sophie? Did they know each other?

He extended his hand politely to Sophie. “I’m Gary Lakes, and I’m a good friend to your brother. We grew up together.”

When Sophie heard this, she immediately used her divine powers to discover more about his identity.

As her knowledge of him grew, she nodded. “Oh, then it's nice to meet you.

“What’s up with your girlfriend?” she asked unhappily.
