Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 948

Though they tried to keep their voices down, Xyla Quest could still clearly hear their malicious comments.

Every word pierced her eardrums like a blade.

Nevertheless, she remained as calm as ever.

She could understand their reactions to her abrupt arrival.

They must have encountered many ridiculous girls trying to sneak into their office and hit on their president. ‘I’m the young mistress’ was the common lie they used.

They had seen too much, so they were susceptible to girls like her.

Xyla inadvertently met the security guards’ eyes while stretching her neck. The four of them formed a barrier against her intrusion, their eyes burning with fury as they glared at her.

Xyla raised her brows indifferently before lowering her head and continuing playing with her phone.

About two minutes later—

Stanley Batton marched out of the elevator with Zack Cassidy.

They headed straight to the main entrance once they stepped out of the elevator.

Stanley was wearing a white dress shirt with a pair of black trousers.

He did not wear any tie today. Instead, the first two buttons near the collar were unfastened, vaguely showing his sexy collarbone.

His sleeves were rolled up to his elbow, making him look extraordinarily elegant and neat.

His long legs were eye-catching, and his perfect body proportion was enviable.

Xyla cracked into a bright smile the moment she caught sight of Stanley. Lovesickness had been torturing her all these days. Nonetheless, all the agony melted away when she finally met the man she had been longing for.

Coldness swarmed over the main entrance with Stanley’s arrival.

All the female employees, who were having fun laughing at Xyla, shuddered at his powerful and menacing aura.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Did this woman just call Stanley?

“Good evening, President Batton!” The employees nodded respectfully while greeting Stanley in unison.

Upon hearing that, the four security guards immediately turned around to face Stanley. They subconsciously opened a path for Stanley and then shouted courteously, “Good evening, President!”
