Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 1912

Jeremy Quest's heart clenched at the sight of Betty Starmount's sad demeanor.

He gently held her hand. "What's the matter? It's only a cold, why do you seem so troubled?"

Betty forced a smile on her face. "It's nothing, I just feel awful seeing you sick like this."

Jeremy felt deeply touched by her words.

"Betty, I consider myself very lucky. Despite my age, I still met someone beautiful like you who would take care of me and worry about me. "Someone was selling a limited-edition purse on Amazon, so I bought one for you and also for Xyla," Jeremy said.

Her heart swelled with warmth, her eyes turning red.

"Thank you."

"None of that," he chuckled, "we are a couple."

Betty tried her best to smile. "Nobody else in the world could be as good to me as you."

"I'll try to live a few years longer to be with you. Even if I die, I'll make sure you live comfortably for the rest of your life. Don't worry," he said.

Her eyes filled with tears again. "Thank you."

"Didn't you hear when I said there is no need to thank me? It's only right that I treat you well as you have sacrificed your youth for me. How could I not take care of you?" Jeremy asked. Betty instantly took a deep breath. "What if you replace out that I've done something terrible to you? Would you kill me?"

"I don't believe you would, and you never will," he answered.

After saying that, Jeremy held her hand. "I am suddenly craving for the steamed dumplings from across the hospital, but they don't deliver. Would you be able to buy me some?" Betty instantly nodded before turning around to leave.

When she was gone, he closed his eyes and frowned, a myriad of emotions evident on his face.

Meanwhile, he subconsciously clenched his fists tightly.

Xylacially handed over ancient tomb to the governmePet

some

treasures found in.

after sorting through them

Meanwhile, the country's national treasury kept the rest.

At the same time, news coming from an anonymous source broke on Weibo and went viral.

According to the source, they

claimed that Xyla Quest had discovered an ancient tomb in Blue Mountain City worth up to a trillion dollars.

To excavate the treasures, Xyla even brought in military men.

All of a sudden, nearly all the netizens on Weibo went crazy.

'#Xyla Quest's ancient tomb#'.

'#Blue Mountain City's trillion-dollar ancient tomb#'.

'#Xyla Quest's antiques#'.

These topics made it onto the top three spots on Weibo's list of hot topics, each with the word 'explosive' behind it. Netizens began discussing the topics heatedly-

"Did she use the country's resources to excavate treasures? Isn't that way too much even for Xyla?"

"Is this what it feels like to have special rights? I didn't know anyone could use the country's resources like this."

"This person only said Xyla found

the ancient tomb and employed military men, but nobody mentioned whether she offered the country any

sation. Does this mean it

was all for free?"

"Why is Xyla able to get the military to help her with excavating the ancient tomb? Does she think she is the president?" "Did Xyla misunderstand the role of those military men who are supposed to fight in wars, not as her free labor!"

"That is way too low. Why can't Xyla hire ordinary people to help? How could she ask those military men to help her?"
