Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 820

After feeling another sharp pain in his wrist, Henry Armstrong hissed. He then carefully moved his wrist a little.

This was the first time he met a woman who was this difficult to pursue.

After a long while, the pain in his wrist finally faded.

He immediately opened WeChat and sent Georgie Clementine a message. "I won't give up. I'm serious about it this time," he said.

However, when his message was sent out, Henry was stunned.

There was a striking red exclamation mark at the end of his message.

The notification below explained that his message didn't successfully reach the recipient.

This meant Georgie had blocked him...

Henry let out a long, helpless sigh. "She's really cruel..." He murmured to himself.

On the busy road, Georgie's white Lamborghini overtook the cars around it.

She was driving with one hand while her other hand was lazily pressed against her chin as her elbow rested on the car's window frame. With her car window completely rolled down, breezes with the scent of roses blew against her, making her hair sway softly in the air. Georgie was in a bad mood tonight...

She had gone to meet her in-game husband, full of hope. In the end, she found out the guy was actually Henry, the womanizer. The Cloud Piercer she imagined had always been a gentle, clean, and prince-like man.

Since it was her first time dating online, she thought she would have a perfect, happy ending. She didn't expect things to end like this. Georgie liked the kind of person Henry portrayed in the game. He was gentle, responsible, and very devoted to her.

However, all she liked was the person he portrayed in the game.

Georgie didn't like Henry in real life at all because he was too much of a womanizer. He wasn't someone she could handle.

She had no interest in a man like him.

Meanwhile, in a high-class clubhouse called Ink.

Xyla Quest, Stanley Batton, and Ron Batton were sitting around a large, round rosewood table in a luxurious Country Z-inspired room while they enjoyed delicious delicacies. The whole time, Stanley wouldn't stop putting food on Xyla and Ron's plates...

Xyla, on the other hand, kept telling jokes to make Ron laugh.

It was a very heart-warming and peaceful scene.

When Emily Quest walked past the room, she coincidentally witnessed this through the thinly veiled door.

The joyful look and smile on Xyla's face made Emily feel extremely annoyed and jealous.

After glaring at Xyla briefly, she hastened her footsteps into the room next door.

Inside, Tom Sullivan was sitting on a rosewood couch with a cold expression on his face.

When he saw Emily walking in, he started speaking in a disgusted tone, "Why did you ask me to come here?"

"Must I have a reason to ask you out? We're a married couple. Shouldn't we occasionally go on dates?" Emily walked up to Tom and sat on his thigh. She then circled her arms around his neck. Tom felt disgusted by her touch.

Frowning coldly, he tried to push her away.

However, Emily held onto him tightly around his neck like glue. "Tom... I hope you can be a little nicer to me, even if it means you must act... Don't forget what's in my hands..."

Tom immediately stopped pushing her away. His face turned dark. "Emily, you really are shameless..." He said.

Emily felt hurt by his words, but she kept a smile on her face. "Honey, let's go... We'll sit over there and order our food later..." She said.
