Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 547

Why did Xyla Quest say that he was Dr. Batton's grandson?

Bailey Ronson immediately put on a surprised face and looked at Stanley Batton. "What? Are you not Dr. Batton's grandson? Who are you then? Why do you share the same name as Dr. Batton's grandson?" Subsequently, she turned to face Xyla. "Xyla, didn't you say that your husband is the grandson of Dr. Batton? Mr. Henry says that his grandson is very ugly, not at all a face like Stan's.

"Mr. Henry, please take a look at Stan carefully again. Are you sure he's not Dr. Batton's grandson?" As Bailey spoke, she pointed at Stanley once more.

Nevertheless, Stanley's eyes were as calm as usual, totally unaffected by her accusation. Without saying a word, he casually placed his hand at the base of the wine glass, sliding the glass back and forth. The red wine in the glass swayed back and forth as the glass moved, its dazzling luster shining brightly under the light.

He looked very much like a king standing at the peak of the mountain, devising strategies to defeat his enemies. There was a strong aura surrounding him.

Xyla was as calm as Stanley. She was so disgusted at Bailey that there were no other emotions within her.

"I do know this young lady. She's Dr. Batton's granddaughter-in-law..." Henry pointed at Xyla.

Upon hearing that, Bailey pretended to be dumbfounded by the plot twist again. "Ahh... What? So, what you're saying is that Xyla is Dr. Batton's granddaughter-in-law, but the man standing beside her is not Dr Batton's grandson?"

Henry nodded in response. "You're right..."

When Jeremy Quest heard Bailey's question, he finally understood what this was all about.

Was Emily Quest's previous speculation correct? That Xyla did not tell her family about her marriage because she found a husband who would embarrass her, so she was too afraid to tell the truth?

As for the Stanley Batton standing in front of him right now, was he just a stand-in for Xyla to protect her reputation?

Likewise, the onlookers surrounding them were getting more and more confused about the situation. Questions were swimming inside their hearts, and their eyes were all overflowed with shock.

Tom Sullivan had stopped dead in his tracks too. He could not take his eyes off Stanley's face.

Looking at the mess in front of them, Emily Quest and May Conner exchanged looks of glee, and the smiles on their faces grew increasingly wider.

The two of them knew that Xyla was truly dead this time!

Though Jeremy Quest clearly knew that Xyla had brought great humiliation to his family, he continued to smile at Henry as there were too many people looking at them. "Mr. Henry, you're really humorous. Let's not talk about that anymore. Please have a seat. I would love to talk about doing charity with you..."

Then, Jeremy beckoned to a waiter and ordered, "Bring a chair and put it next to me."

The waiter returned to them with a chair in his hands in no time. Without hesitation, Jeremy pulled Henry to his side and sat down together with him.

"Allow me to take a wild guess. Well, Xyla, you're not ashamed of your actual husband, who is Dr. Batton's hideous grandson, are you? Did you randomly replace a handsome man to pretend to be your husband to maintain your reputation?

"I'm sorry for my bold guess but Xyla... Tell me if I'm right. The man standing beside you is not even Stanley Batton, is he?" Bailey continued to make a fuss of the matter, deliberately raising her voice. "That's too bold, isn't it? How did the Quest family give birth to such a daughter?"

"Exactly... I think Ms. Ronson is right. What else can it be?"

"If I'm President Quest, I'll definitely give Xyla a slap on the spot right now."

The onlookers around them were starting to attack Xyla.

Everyone's attention was gathered on the conflict between the Quest family. None of them was interested in the performances on stage.

Hearing the crowd's discussion, the corner of Bailey's lips gradually curved upward into a smug smirk.

"Xyla... Explain yourself. Is that the truth?" Bailey added.
