Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2441

Team XS's official account didn't address any of the rumors spreading around in public.

Leon Batton went about his day as usual by going to classes with Lynette Batton.

He could hear people screaming as soon as his car stopped in front of the school, but he remained indifferent while his sister smiled sweetly.

"You seem to be in a good mood today," Leon couldn't resist stating with his brows raised when he saw how jolly she appeared.

"Not too bad. Same as usual," she answered softly.

"Why do you seem a little out of sorts today?"

The smile on her face widened. "I browsed the internet to look for basic tips on behaving like an idol. I have to smile and maintain a positive image, so I thought I should start practicing."

Her hair danced to the breeze, her eyes glistening as she smiled. It was a breathtaking sight.

"She's so pretty!"

"I'd like to be Lynette's friend. Unfortunately, I'd never get the chance!"

"Yeah, she's way too pretty. If only I look half as good as she does. I wouldn't have to be so sad!"

People around them spoke, offering compliments one after another.

Leon didn't say anything. After all, this was his sister's dream. He thought it was inappropriate to ask her too many questions about it.

They arrived at their classroom just as the bell rang.

His desk was full of pink-colored love letters and various intricate-looking snacks as usual.

After taking his seat, he cast disinterested eyes over the items not seeing the small slice of toast. For some reason, he felt a little

disappointed.

A look of disappointment briefly appeared in his eyes as he looked down, but it was gone before anyone noticed.

The first lesson was chemistry.

The chemistry teacher was a middle-aged Mediterranean man who seemed popular among the students because he gave clear and detailed explanations despite being long-winded.

Even so, Lynette and Leon weren't planning on paying attention.

After school, the two of them walked along the road in school. There were tall trees on both sides of the road that blocked the scorching sun.

"Leon, why do you seem a little distracted lately?" she asked while cocking her head sideways and blinking her eyes.

She had never seen her brother like that before.

"No, you're mistaken," he replied with a shake of his head. He didn't want his sister to know what was on his mind.

"How's that possible?" she asked

incredulously with a pout, rolling her eyes. "I grew up with you. I can tell right away if something is wrong. Hmm det me guess. It's because of

She smiled in smug satisfaction when he didn't reply, watching his face relaxing somewhat.

"Hahaha! Your silence means I was right," Lynette said triumphantly. Over the years, it was the first time she had seen her brother like that.

"All right, all right, stop making fun of me," Leon grumbled. "I didn't say you were right."
