Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 999

All of them were dressed up in exquisite suits and gowns.

There were towers of pastry, champagne, and wine at each corner of the hall.

What was more striking was the white nineteen-layer cake in the middle of the banquet hall. Each layer of the cake was decorated with beautiful white swans. The enormous cake was incredibly magnificent.

The party was just like the king's feast described in the fairy tales.

It took Xyla Quest quite some time to find Wilson Batton and Sharon Lindt among the crowd.

Josh Batton was standing right behind them. They were busy toasting and chatting with the guests.

Josh and Wilson were much quieter compared to Sharon Lindt, who had been talking non-stop.

Sharon told Xyla before that Josh would be the host for the party tonight.

Maybe time stopped when Xyla and Stanley entered the hall. Everyone was frozen to their spots, their lips parted, and their eyes fixed upon them.

They subconsciously moved sideways and formed a path for the pair.

The path led the two straight to the stage decorated with flowers.

Xyla was already used to events like this.

She calmly walked to the stage with Stanley Batton and came to a halt in front of the podium.

After that, Stanley gave a long speech about Dragon Group’s history, its development over the past seventy years, and his vision for the future.

He did not prepare any script for the speech today. Nevertheless, he remained as calm as ever. He had not stuttered even once, and all the terms he used were formal and professional.

His impressive leadership skills were evident to everyone.

After the long opening speech, Stanley and Xyla rose their glass of wine high in the air and cheered with the crowd.

Subsequently, Josh, the host of the day, went on the stage and joined the two. He was wearing a set of white suits, looking neat and gentlemanly.

The two brothers provided a startling contrast as they stood together. One of them was cold and apathetic, while the other was warm and friendly.
