Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 483

As Stanley Batton sang, Xyla Quest listened and enjoyed every moment of it.

Amidst his singing, Xyla soon heard a car arriving outside the house.

She immediately felt joyful and ran over to open the door with her phone in hand.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Stanley getting out of his black Honda.

He was wearing a white shirt and black pants, and there was a black coat draped around his arm.

The simple combination of clothes made him appear like a noble, diving being that had descended from above.

He took big strides toward her. Suddenly, he stopped singing.

Very soon, Stanley was in front of Xyla, smiling faintly. "I'm home."

"Hmm." Xyla nodded gently.

"Were you afraid?" he asked.

Xyla shook her head.

She was never afraid of the dark. With him accompanying her on the phone, she didn't feel afraid at all.

Without saying anything, Stanley placed his coat over her body. "I'm going to check out what's wrong." After that, Stanley turned on the torchlight on his phone and walked over to the circuit box. Xyla followed close behind.

"There's something wrong with one of the cables. Go and sit over there while I fix it," he said.

"I'll get you the toolbox," Xyla said.

"Let me do it. Sit over there, alright?" Stanley said before walking over to the coffee table and retrieving a toolbox under it. He then returned to Xyla. "Go and sit down." "Let me hold the torchlight for you," Xyla said.

"It's okay. Go and rest," he said.

After that, he turned her around and said softly next to her ear, "Hurry up. Don't neglect your body, alright?"

When Xyla felt his warm breath flowing from the back of her ear down her neck, she couldn't help but blush.

The room was so dark that Stanley couldn't sense it.

Xyla subconsciously nodded before taking a deep breath and walking over to the couch.

After sitting down, she still felt a buzzing sensation in her heart.

Meanwhile, Stanley was able to fix the problem very quickly.

The sudden brightness made Xyla squint for a moment.

After getting used to the brightness, she turned around and looked at Stanley kneeling on the ground as he kept the tools back in the toolbox. "Five Batton, thank you..." 'Thank you for singing to me, and thank you for fixing the electricity.' Xyla thought.

Stanley carried the toolbox and placed it back under the coffee table before sitting down next to Xyla. "It's my job."

When their eyes met, Xyla felt her heart beating wildly again.

"You... Sing very well," Xyla complimented.

She still felt enamored by his singing.

"Is that so?"

"Yeah. Did you take lessons for it?" Xyla asked curiously.

"No," he said.

"In that case, you are naturally gifted." Xyla couldn't resist giving him the thumbs up.

"Are you hungry?" Stanley asked.

If he hadn't brought it up, Xyla wouldn't have felt it at all. As soon as he did, she realized she was, indeed, feeling a little hungry. She immediately nodded and looked at the clock. "I feel like eating ramen. Let's order out. Do you want some?"

"I'll make it for you," Stanley said.

"I mean the kind of ramen that's freshly-handmade... " Xyla seemed a little shocked.

"Yeah."

"Are you sure you can do it?" Xyla asked.

"Don't you know that by now?"
