Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2465

The family had a great time together as the birthday party was well organized this year.

Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton returned home with Lynette Batton and Leon Batton after the party ended.

By then, the sky was already pitch dark.

Stanley and Xyla returned to their room first.

He reached out to pull his wife into his arms as soon as they walked in, pressing his chin against her head. Her familiar fragrant scent made him feel a lot more at ease.

The next day, Lynette and Leon were having breakfast together.

"Is Mommy awake yet?" she murmured when she hadn't seen Xyla for a while.

"She's probably awake but too busy to come down," Leon replied impatiently. "Are you done eating? If you are, let's head to school."

"All right, I'm almost done. Why weren't you this eager to go to school previously?" his sister complained while rolling her eyes at him. "Umm, it's almost time. We're going to be late," he said with an awkward expression.

"We usually get to school just in time, though. Besides, why would someone like you even worry about being late?" she argued. "Why wouldn't I be worried about that?"

"In my opinion, you're looking forward to the toast from a certain someone," she directly pointed out.

"No," he retorted without hesitation. He would never admit to that.

"Liar," she countered before picking up her school bag to leave.

Leon followed suit but paused to drain his coffee while mumbling to himself. "Is it that obvious?"

He seemed troubled but started to drive after pondering for a while.

Upon arrival at school, they heard some commotion from outside as they parked the car before getting out together.

They stood in the hallway where

female students from each class popped their heads out to admire their good looks. Their mere presence set the entire academic building abuzz.

Leon wore his usual calm expression while Lynette waved continuously at her peers.

"Lynette seems like such a nice person. She smiled at me earlier!"

"Yeah, she smiled at me, too! Oh my gosh! That is why I came to this school!"

The students caused even more uproar when they saw her pleasant smile.

Finally, the siblings arrived at Class y had eyes for the slice

A.

Sidst all the love letters and

on his table.

He smiled and stopped feeling anxious after seeing the toast.

"Ahh! Did I imagine it? Leon smiled! That is so magical!"

"You didn't imagine it because I saw it, too! I think he looks even more handsome when he smiles!"

"Oh my god! I'm going to pass out! Quick, hold my hand!"

The female students in Class A were talking loudly among themselves.

"Looks like you're a little more popular than me, Leon," Lynette told

her

tone.

He chuckled without a reply.

He picked up all the love letters and gifts on his table before tossing them into the trash can.
