Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 2412

Leon Batton frowned at that. “Can’t we just throw them into the rubbish bin in the school?”

Lynette Batton quickly shook her head. “How could we do that? You should know how much thought everyone put into those love letters. We can’t just throw them away in school.

“Love at this age is in its purest form. Even if we don’t wish to respond, we shouldn’t trample over it,” she added.

Her brother nodded along as he thought she had a point.

“Don’t you agree?” she asked.

“Yeah, you’re right.” Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Then, he ruffled her hair affectionately, making her recall their close relationship when they were kids.

“You used to adore me when we were younger, even though you acted cool in front of me most of the time,” she reminisced.

“Back then, you never showed how you really felt. Now, you are still affectionate with me like you used to be. Only, you no longer act cool. You’re an absolute sweetheart now,” she went on.

Leon smirked. “People change.”

She shrugged before nodding. “Yeah. The only thing is that you still treat others as indifferent as ever. Do you know what people say about you?”

Leon kept one hand on the steering wheel as he rubbed his chin with the other before glancing at his sister. “What do they say?”

“They call you the God of Ice. That means they think you’re cold as ice, get it?” she informed him bluntly.

“Yeah.”

“Be nicer to other people. What if you meet a girl you like but end up scaring her off because she happens to be shy?” she asked.

“I’m not worried," he said. "She won’t run away so easily if it's true love.”

“I think she might.”

“Whatever then,” he replied casually.

Lynette gave up then.

While they spoke, Leon maneuvered the car into a drifting motion and brought it to a halt. He then walked over to the other side to open the door for her like a true gentleman.

Lynette stepped out to stand next to her brother. The sight of the siblings with their good looks and endearing difference in height instantly attracted a lot of attention.

Everyone in the school became excited again, but these two paid no heed as they exchanged glances as usual before heading inside the school building.

The two of them were both top students in Class A.

With the finals approaching, all students were studying hard, so it was utterly silent in the classroom.

However, as soon as Leon and Lynette walked in, everyone seemed to come alive.

A crowd surrounded them, with the boys trying to strike up a conversation with Lynette while the girls did the same to Leon.

The girls were most concerned about his absence from school for the past few days.

He got so annoyed that he developed a headache, so he directly pulled his sister by her arm and led her to their seats.

Leon sank down into the chair in front while she sat behind him.
