Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 957

About half an hour later, Jeremy Quest trembled as he stood up. He walked directly to Xyla Quest. “Please go home and pack up your aunt and Emily’s belongings. We’ll bury those things with the two of them tomorrow,” he said.

After saying that, Jeremy looked at Stanley Batton. “Stan, please stay here and look after the guests.”

“Okay,” Xyla replied. After that, Xyla walked out of the parlor with Stanley. She then left the funeral home with a group of bodyguards waiting outside.

Back at the Quest family’s place, Xyla led the servants into Emily’s room to sort out her personal belongings.

They first took the jewelry on Emily’s dresser and put them into a leather case.

After that, they went into Emily’s closet to continue sorting stuff out. They placed all of Emily’s clothes, some accessories, and her shoes into the leather case.

“What is this? Ms. Xyla, come and have a look, quickly…” A female servant suddenly called out.

Xyla happened to be holding a few items of clothing and was about to put them in the leather box. She immediately looked over.

All she could see was a female servant pointing at a wall.

There were Post-it notes of various colors on the wall, and Xyla’s pictures occupied half of the wall.

The most terrifying thing was that her eyes were gouged out in each of her photos, and the corners of her mouth were painted with blood.

It all seemed so frightful that it was almost as if one had seen a ghost.

On a typical day, that wall was covered by clothes. Hence, an outsider wouldn’t be able to see those things on the wall.

Xyla was a little shocked by what she saw.

She never would’ve thought that Emily would hide such things in her closet.

Xyla quickly walked over to the wall to take a closer look at the things on it.

Xyla was confused by the sight of these words.

She couldn’t figure out which era this writing was from.

“Ahh…”

Right then, one of the female servants yelped.

Xyla immediately looked over only to find that the servant was sitting down on the ground, holding her right wrist. The servant seemed to be in pain, and her face was pale…

“What happened to you?” Xyla asked.

The servant panted as she pointed at a drawer below the jewelry cabinet with a frightened look on her face. “I was jabbed by the needle that flew out of this box… It hurts so much… I feel as if all the veins in my body are burning…

“It feels like acid is flowing through my body instead of blood. Ms. Xyla, I’m in so much pain… Ahh…” The servant uttered.
