Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2427

Leon Batton frowned slightly. “Perhaps.”

He was no stranger to being pursued by numerous girls since primary school, yet none of them were as determined as this girl.

He couldn’t help but recall the scene where the girl was surrounded and taunted by bullies.

Her teary eyes and pitiful facial expression kept appearing in his mind.

Ring, ring, ring—

The bell rang, signalling the end of one lesson just as their English teacher entered the classroom.

Everyone fell silent.

Even Leon’s thoughts were interrupted as he watched the teacher approach the podium.

Their English lesson proceeded as usual.

The morning flew by very quickly, and soon, it was time for lunch.

Conversations swirled around as students wondered what to eat.

Meanwhile, Lynette Batton also couldn't decide as she stood next to Leon’s table. “What are we having for lunch?”

“What would you like to eat?” he countered.

She considered for a few seconds. “Why don’t we go to the street food area in the city center for some stir-fried noodles?”

Their mother, Xyla Quest, didn’t particularly spoil them rotten despite them growing up in the Batton family.

They lived their lives much like common folks, and ate anything and everything that normal people ate.

They weren’t picky eaters like other children from wealthy families.

Growing up, Xyla frequently brought them to places with street food in the city center.
