Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2407

Xyla Quest gave Leon Batton a high-five to celebrate their victory.

She then smiled and saluted him. “You were great!”

“Of course,” he smiled smugly before asking, “Another round?”

She was even more eager to play now.

She quickly formed a team and invited her son to join her.

Just like that, the two quickly became addicted to the game.

The feeling of finding an equally capable teammate compelled them to play until half-past ten in the evening.

To avoid distractions, they even silenced their phones.

Stanley Batton noticed their absence at home and started calling to look for them, but neither answered.

They had completely lost track of time.

After winning another match at eleven o’clock, Xyla finally shifted her gaze to the time in the bottom right corner of the computer screen.

She was shocked that they had been at it for hours and hadn't realized it had gotten so late.

“We should stop. Look at the time,” she gazed at Leon in alarm. As she spoke, her stomach began to growl.

They even forgot to have dinner because they were preoccupied with games.

She needed to self-reflect, she realized.

How could she do that as a mother?

To play games with her son all day, not going home despite the late hour, and forgetting to eat.

She could only blame the fact that she hadn’t had time to indulge in games lately that this happened.

Leon was equally shocked when he discovered the time.
