Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 1984

"That's impressive! Georgie Clementine is so lucky."

"Why is she still working? She can afford to stay at home from now on."

"I'm very jealous. I'm also a woman, but why is she so successful?"

Georgie Clementine saw various envious remarks, so she couldn't be bothered to continue reading. Hence, she directly exited from the topic and checked out the other trending topics.

As the CEO of X Entertainment, Georgie needed to check the list of hot topics many times each day. Mainly, she needed to pay attention to gossip within the entertainment industry, particularly about the company's artistes.

Any unexpected circumstances related to them would be picked up in time to prevent further negative impact.

After browsing through and realizing nothing unusual, Georgie looked over the news briefly before closing Weibo, resting her eyes.

The next day, Henry brought her home to talk to his parents about their wedding.

His parents didn't say much but remained polite throughout the conversation.

Georgie could sense that they still didn't approve of her all that much, but she behaved politely.

Although she initially had her reservations about Henry's mother, she had already made peace with it because she didn't want Henry caught in an awkward position between them.

He always treated her well, and he offered to compromise on many things, so this was something she felt obliged to do for him.

After visiting his parents, they went to the clinic for her first prenatal check-up, replaceing everything to be normal.

On the third day, Henry went to an astrologer to decide on an auspicious date, which was set on the twelfth of the following month.

Then, on the day after, Georgie brought Henry and his parents to her family's house located in a small city in the south, Sunlight City.

They informed Georgie's parents

about their chosen wedding date

and Henry then handed a huge sum of money to them as Georgie's betrothal gift.

The Armstrongs left right after lunch, while the expectant couple decided to stay the night to spend time with her parents. They would leave the next day.

After seeing his parents off, Henry drove Georgie around the city in his red Ferrari.

Winter in Sunlight City was different from Atlantis in the north. It only rained but never snowed here.

In comparison to Atlantis, it was very wet and cold here.

Fortunately, the heater in the car made it warm enough, neither of them feeling uncomfortable.

The population was small in the city, quite the opposite of Atlantis, which was densely populated. The roads here were wide, and the traffic was sparse.

Henry felt at ease in this city, and so did Georgie. They have stayed too long in a crowded city, that it was not surprising for them to crave peace and quiet in a place like this. en.swhovels.net

His luxurious Ferrari stood out in the small city, attracting much attention as it drove past.

Some people even began taking pictures of his car.

Georgie and Henry, who were at the center of attention, didn't care at all.

Georgie began telling him about her

experience growing up in this small

city, noting that not much had

changed since she moved to

Atlantis for work.

Everything she saw here reminded her of the good times during her youth, filling her with a sense of nostalgia.
