Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 187

“…Yes,” Stanley Batton answered.

“Are you moving in together? Is it because your relationship has developed to this state, or is it all an act for her family?” Henry Armstrong asked.

“The latter,” Stanley said.

“Tsk… My excitement was all a waste,” Sebastian Brenand said straightforwardly.

“Did you develop feelings for our sister-in-law on that night? Have you really fallen for her? Henry asked.

“You like to gossip,” Stanley looked blankly at Sebastian before standing up and walking away.

“No… Why is this person walking away before answering the question properly?” Henry looked helpless.

“Isn’t this normal?” Gary Lakes chuckled.

“Do you guys think he has fallen in love?” Henry asked before nonchalantly spinning a beer bottle on the table.

After a second, the beer bottle began spinning quickly on the spot.

“I don’t know if he loves her or not, but I’m sure he has some positive feelings for her. If that were not the case, why would a man like him, who has never allowed himself anywhere near women, do these things?” Sebastian said confidently while crossing one leg over the other.

“I bet what the two of them are doing wouldn’t even appear in movie scripts. Clearly, they are a married couple. However, our sister-in-law doesn’t even know who he is, and ended up asking her

real husband to pretend to be her husband.” Henry could not resist teasing before he started laughing out loudly.

“I can never understand why our sister-in-law doesn’t recognize her husband even after having slept with him. Although it’s true that they both did not show up to collect their marriage certificate, and had not seen each other after collecting it, wouldn’t there be a picture of them on the marriage certificate?” Sebastian asked.

“I’ve thought about this question. Either Stanley’s picture isn’t in the marriage certificate, or our sister-in-law has forgotten how he looked after seeing the picture. Didn’t Stanley say so himself? Stanley’s grandfather was afraid they would get a divorce. Hence, he kept the marriage certificate away from them,” Henry said.

“I feel that the picture wasn’t even there,” Gary said.

“Our sister-in-law doesn’t seem like a forgetful person. I guess there really wasn’t a picture,” Sebastian added. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

“Come to think of it. There’s something else that I find strange. I asked Stanley before if he found out why the water in his room had drugs in it. He said that he was able to find out. However, when I asked him who did it, he didn’t tell me,” Henry said.

“Beep, beep, beep—”

Right then, Henry’s phone began to vibrate. His in-game wife, Cute Bunny, had sent him a voice message on Heroes Assemble.

Henry immediately tapped play before placing his phone close to his ear.

“Hmm… Darling, when are you coming online? Someone bullied me. Sobs.” A sweet girly voice could be heard. Henry felt very much aroused.

Voices like that were considered every man’s kryptonite.

Although Henry did not put it on loudspeaker, he had not lowered the volume of his phone. Coupled with the fact that the room was very quiet, and both Sebastian and Gary were close to Henry, the two men could also hear the voice from the phone.

After exchanging glances, the men ignored Henry.

“Use my account and get back at him.” Henry quickly replied with a text message.

“Hmm… Can I really do that, darling? My husband is the best! Shall I do your daily quests for you too after that?” Cute Bunny replied.

“Okay, muacks!” Henry wrote.

As soon as Henry finished typing, Sebastian inched closer to him.

“Is online dating very sweet? Be careful; your other half might be faking the voice. How do you know that pretty lady you saw before is the woman herself?” Sebastian asked.

Henry could not be bothered to answer Sebastian as he chucked his phone into his pocket.

Right then, the door to the room was opened. A young man appeared with a few young ladies behind him, all of whom had long and fair legs.

The young man was the manager of Unconscious Bar’s KTV, Hank Canary.

“Young masters, these are our newest female recruits for the KTV. They are all young women. I was wondering if you would be interested?” Hank asked.
