Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1910

“Remember this, you are an emotionless tool.”

“If you obey me, you live. If you don’t, you die.”

The voice kept repeating the lines.

Betty Starmount could only hear the voice but not see the person it belonged to.

She closed her eyes and nodded slowly. “I understand. I won’t spare Xyla Quest.”

“I-I also won’t spare Jer-Jere-Jeremy Quest!”

She began to stammer when she mentioned his name, taking nearly half a minute to utter the two words.

After that, Betty clenched her fists tightly and looked at the mirror in front of her. However, the words written in red had disappeared by then.

Everything had returned to normal.

She quickly used a face towel to wipe away her sweat.

Knock, knock, knock—

Someone was knocking on the bathroom door, and then she heard Xyla’s voice. “Hey, are you alright?”

Opening the bathroom door, Betty looked at Xyla. “I’m fine.”

Right then, she saw Jeremy standing with a worried expression behind Xyla. As soon as he saw her, he immediately stepped inside. “How are you feeling? Are you alright, Betty?

“You can tell me if you don’t feel well. I’ll take you to the hospital right away,” he told her.

Betty nodded. “Yeah, I’m fine. Don’t worry, I am feeling better already.”

“Really?” Xyla asked curiously.

“Yeah, it always hurts a little. Don’t worry,” Betty replied.

When Xyla heard this, she extended her hand to her.

“What are you doing?” Betty had a confused look in her eyes.
