Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2489

"I heard from Hannah's classmates that she had quit school...Hannah didn't come to school for a very long time so they all became curious. But her teacher didn't say much. "Finally, one of her classmates couldn't resist asking out of curiosity today.

"It turned out that Hannah had quit school. That's not all. Hannah's teacher even said she didn't just quit school.

"Hannah's not even going to continue studying in other high schools," Lynette explained.

"I was worried you'd feel bad previously. That's why I've been hesitating to tell you.

"But now that I've thought about it, I realize I should tell you," Lynette added.

After hearing this, Leon felt empty.

It was as if something that had been with him all along suddenly disappeared.

Not only did Hannah quit school, but she even stopped going to other schools altogether. Why did she do that?

"What happened to her?" Leon asked.

"Hmm... I heard her father fell severely ill. They ran out of money to provide him with treatment.

"Now, both Hannah and her brother are getting ready to start working..." Lynette said.

Leon furrowed his brows intensely upon hearing this, feeling guilty. She was going through such terrible things, but he had no idea.

"I understand..." Leon said calmly.

"Leon, I think we should help her. I feel sorry for her... Besides, you have feelings for her anyway. Why don't we support her studies financially?

"Our parents are supporting children

from poor families to go to school anyway. Helping another person doesn't make any difference Hang on Don't you have money now?

"You can financially support her too. You can help Hannah return," Lynette said.

Beep, beep, beep-

Before Lynette could finish talking, Leon's phone started ringing.

When Leon saw that the call was from Xyla, he immediately picked up.

"Leon, what's the name of the kid you asked me to sponsor a few days ago?" Xyla asked. "Let's talk about it later," Leon replied with his brows still furrowed. He then hung up.

Lynette's eyes lit up when she heard what was said. "I see. You've already made up your mind to support her financially, haven't you?" Lynette couldn't resist asking.

Leon frowned deeply again. "She's already in such a difficult position and she still wants to study here... If I don't financially support her, she's going to continue suffering, isn't she?"

With Hannah not being around these days, Leon always felt a little sad.

He realized he cared about Hannah far more than he thought. No, he loved this girl deeply.

To be honest, Leon had no idea when he started developing feelings for her. Feelings were hard to explain.

Leon figured that it probably began when he first read those letters from Hannah.

It wasn't that Leon never thought about the possibility of Hannah never coming to school again. In fact, he thought that they might never see each other again.

The more he thought about it, the more he found it hard to accept, and the more his heart ached...

Leon already began to feel remorseful. He regretted not reaching out to Hannah when he still could.
