All Chapters of Revenge of the Hideous Lady: Chapter 291 - Chapter 300

Sharon Lindt immediately frowned. “I don’t take things back once I’ve given them away,” she said unhappily.“Aunty, I really can’t accept them,” Xyla Quest said helplessly.“Consider them a new year gift from me,” Sharon added.Xenia was speechless.This new year gift was far too expensive.At that moment, the sales assistants were very excited.Joyfully, they carried the clothes over to the cashier and began processing the payment.People who just entered the store were all stunned by the huge commotion.Xyla tried to shake Sharon off to stop those sales assistants again, but Sharon would not let her go.Helpless, Xyla decided to give up.Realizing that Sharon would not cave in and was determined to buy her those clothes, Xyla thought it would be impolite if she continued to refuse the offer.For now, Xyla would have to accept the clothes. Next time, she would return the kind gesture by purchasing a gift of the same value. The exchange of gifts meant they could still be goo

“Cancel the contract with Faye White.” Xyla Quest dived right into business.“Why? She is a great actress and has a lot of potential. Canceling the contract with her directly would be a shame. I’ve always believed that she could become the most popular celebrity among the generation of youths born after 1995.” Georgie sounded surprised. “How could someone as arrogant as her possibly achieve that?” Xyla asked.“What’s the matter? Did she do something bad to you?” Georgie asked.“She was arrogant when she spoke to me. It happened in a shopping mall. With a personality like hers, it won’t matter if she became popular. She’s already this full of herself before she had even become famous. I can only imagine how much worse it could get once she does become famous. What if someone digs up negative things about her? I don’t care if she ends up ruining her career, but what would happen to the money we have invested in her?” Xyla said.Xyla could actually choose to bury Faye’s talent.But

At that moment, somebody opened the door.Subconsciously, Xyla Quest clenched her fists tight as goosebumps appeared all over her body.She began to throw punches in the direction of where the sound came from.Before her fist came into contact with anything, a large, warm hand grabbed hers.After that, Xyla was pressed against the wall. She could smell the fragrance of mint-scented soap.In the pitch-black room, Xyla could not see anything. Meanwhile, she felt the person’s body pressing against hers affectionately.Xyla began to relax when the scent of mint and cigarette wafted through her nostrils.“What were you trying to do? Huh?” A deep yet sensual voice could be heard.Xyla could feel his warm breath above her head. Her heart began to race as she felt something like an electric current travelling through her body.Subconsciously, she took a deep breath and pushed against his chest. “I thought you were a bad guy.”Xyla could feel a dampness over her fingers.It appeared

Stanley Quest felt extremely annoyed by the questions. Slowly, he stood up. “I’m going for a smoke outside. Enjoy your chat,” he said before nodding politely at the group of people and walking out the door.After leaning against a lamppost, he slowly lit a cigarette and took a puff at it.The warm light above his head seemed to create a layer of luminescence around him.Meanwhile, he could still hear laughter from the brightly lit living room.Now that the wind had stopped, a sky full of stars could be seen.“Cousin-in-law, do you mind sharing a cigarette?” a crisp voice asked.Stanley looked over at the girl, who was the second daughter of Emily’s uncle, whose name he had forgotten.The girl was beaming at him with bright eyes.Stanley did not answer her. Instead, he pulled a cigarette out from its box and tossed it to her. After that, he took a long puff at his cigarette before letting it out as he looked up at the stars.Stanley did not look at her again. In fact, he did no

Feeling thoroughly embarrassed, Cecelia Conner was at a loss for words. “It really was an accident…” She had no choice but to act dumb.But even if she explained herself, nobody in the house would believe her.“Look at this child of yours… Her hands are all over the place. How could you touch your cousin-in-law with your leg? Aren’t you far too careless?” Emily Quest’s aunt stood up and berated her daughter to diffuse the tension in the air.Stanley Batton ignored them and grabbed a piece of pork before placing it in Xyla Quest’s bowl.Jeremy Quest looked coldly at Cecelia. “You’re having dinner at my house. You need to respect my rules. Keep your hands to yourself.”When Jeremy said these words, Cecelia felt even more embarrassed.It felt as if Stanley and Jeremy had slapped her in front of everyone.Her cheeks felt unbearably hot.“Okay… I understand, Uncle.” Cecelia nodded.Emily’s aunt rolled her eyes at Cecelia before giving her a look, indicating that she should start ea
