Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 1896

Gary Lakes smiled. "All right, good girl. Go on up."

Sophie Kenwick smiled and waved at him before making her way into the building with light footsteps.

"Sophie, wait for a second," he called out.

She stopped in her tracks and turned around, still smiling as her eyes glistened brightly.

They seemed enough to light up the entire sky during winter.

"You like Josh, don't you? I have two tickets to his concert taking place at the end of the month. Do you want them?" Gary asked her.

"Sure, thank you, Gary," she replied, nodding as she walked back toward him.

"I just recalled that the tickets aren't in the car. Why don't I personally send them over to you when I have the time? Let's add each other on WeChat and keep in touch," he suggested. Sophie nodded without any hesitation, showing her account's QR code to him on her phone.

Gary scanned it and added her as his friend.

Once done, Sophie locked her phone and glanced at him. "All right, I'm heading up. Thanks again, Gary."

"You're welcome."

She then walked into the building in high spirits.

Gary stood where he was, watching her leave before he got into his car.

However, instead of driving away immediately, he took out a cigarette and started smoking, a contemplative look evident in his eyes.

Afterward, he drove away in the dark interior of his car, his face illuminated by the exterior lights, making him seem exclusive.

The cool, luxurious-looking car attracted a lot of attention on the road.

"Well, something happened on my way back," the younger girl said.

Xyla sobered when she heard this, a look of curiosity flashing in her eyes.

"What happened? Did somebody bully you?" she asked right away.

Sophie nodded instantly.

Xyla frowned. "Who was it? Tell me, and I'll return the favor."

"I've already dealt with it, but somebody else helped out," she replied vaguely.

Xyla seemed curious. "Who helped you?"

"It was Gary," Sophie smiled.

"Gary? Which Gary?"

Suddenly, Xyla thought of one. "Could it be Gary Lakes?"

Sophie nodded. "Yes."
