Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 961

“Honey… Please come back to the Quest family’s house. I discovered very strange things,” Xyla Quest said.

“Hmm, okay…” Stanley Batton answered without hesitation.

There were people walking past him all the time, but none of them shone brighter than him.

After making the call, Xyla turned to look at a few servants who were doing house chores. “Come here…” She said.

The servants quickly walked over to Xyla. They bowed their heads respectfully while waiting for instructions from Xyla.

“You must all keep what happened at home today a secret. Nobody will say a word…” Xyla instructed earnestly.

Someone very powerful might be hiding behind all this. There might also be a huge, shocking scheme.

If what happened was known to outsiders, and this person found out, it might easily cause panic…

After all, Xyla was out in the open, but that person was still hidden in the dark.

“Yes!” the servants all answered simultaneously.

“If I discover anyone spreading the news out, I will make her pay for it,” Xyla warned.

This was a crucial matter. Xyla couldn’t afford the slightest mistake.

The servants all took in a deep breath at the same time. “Yes!” they replied simultaneously yet again.

“Alright, you can all leave now. Without my permission, nobody can come to the living room,” Xyla added.

The servants quickly dispersed…

After they had all left, Xyla directly opened a box and retrieved a bottle of white, transparent liquid.

She then put on a pair of single-use gloves before opening the bottle. Holding it close to the tip of her nose, Xyla began carefully sniffing at it.

This liquid had a slightly sour scent to it, and it smelled almost like vinegar.

She suddenly recalled what her master had told her before.

***

After approximately an hour, Stanley walked through the door.

As soon as he entered, he walked directly over to Xyla and sat next to her. “What is it?”

Xyla frowned slightly and told Stanley about everything she saw earlier.

After hearing all this, Stanley’s facial expression turned somber as well. There was a murderous look in his eyes. “This means that there’s someone behind all this. Everything Emily and May did might have been related to this person…”

Ding-dong. Ding-dong.

Right then, the doorbell started to ring.

Xyla instantly stood up. “It must be Grandpa… I’ll get it right away…”

With that, she quickly walked to the door.
