Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 65

The tips of Emily’s hair swept across Xyla’s face before falling back to her shoulders.

Emily then rolled her eyes coldly at her before going downstairs while humming a cheerful tune.

Xyla frowned slightly. She tidied her outfit and was about to go downstairs as well.

Just then, she got a call from the quality control department’s director, Bailey Lawson, informing her that they had arrived at Imperial Prime.

Xyla hurried downstairs and sped away in her car, heading for Imperial Prime without even having breakfast.

By the time she arrived, Imperial Prime was a mess.

Everyone was squeezing into the sales center, and the premise was packed with people, inside and out.

Some people even held up banners outside the building that read, ‘Unethical developer, refund us now!’

Xyla felt her mind explode when she saw this scene.

Noticing the quality control department’s car stopped in front of the sales center’s entrance, Xyla immediately drove over to stop beside that car before hastily getting out.

At that moment, with his subordinates in tow, Bailey quickly got out to meet Xyla.

Xyla gave him a respectful bow before extending her hand and said, “Hello Director Lawson, I’m Xyla Quest.”

“How do you do?” The man shook Xyla’s hand, politely.

“Director Lawson, during the construction of this building, your people from the quality control department have come here several times, and each time, there were no problems with the investigation results.

“Today, I hope you can help me talk to the people inside… Otherwise, I fear that things might get out of control.” Xyla spoke softly and gently, showing grace and generosity.

“Yeah, I was thinking the same. Let’s go,” said Bailey as he took the lead and entered the bustling sales center.

Upon seeing Xyla and her group, the security team immediately made way for them.

When the property owners saw Xyla, they started protesting.

“You’ve overstepped the boundary! How dare you sell us defected properties? Refund us now!”

“You unethical pieces of sh*ts! Refund! Refund!!!”

“Refund us now! Refund us now!!!”

Suddenly, someone threw an egg.

The egg smashed right onto Xyla’s forehead.

With a cracking sound, the egg cracked, and its cold contents dripped down her face and all over her body.

The strong rotten smell made Xyla’s stomach hurl.

Although it didn’t hurt, she was still frightened, and her heartbeat inadvertently sped up. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

This scene shocked everyone present as well as a flash of surprise sparked in their eyes.

Xyla said nothing but quietly took out some tissue from her pocket to quickly wipe the egg from her forehead, face, and body.

After that, she glared in the direction where the egg was thrown from.

There were too many people that she couldn’t tell who it was that threw the egg.

Thus, she turned to the security guard beside her and deliberately raised her voice. “Check the surveillance cameras and apprehend the attacker. I want to sue him.”

Among the crowd, a middle-aged man immediately went pale from fright—those around him who are about to mimic him by throwing things all shrank back.

Next, Xyla politely gestured Bailey inside and led him into the rowdy lounge of the sales center.
