Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2424

The family had a wonderful dinner together.

After dinner, they stayed to watch the television with Sharon Lindt and Wilson Batton for a while before returning home.

***

The next day, Lynette Batton and Leon Batton attended school, as usual.

Upon arriving at their classroom, they were troubled to find that their desks and drawers were full of gifts and love letters again.

Leon briefly scanned the items on his desk, but he didn’t see the toast with a heart shape he’d always seen day after day since his first year in high school.

He had gotten used to receiving a fresh toast every day, even though he had never eaten it.

Its unexplained absence made him feel like something was out of place.

He rechecked his drawer to find there was nothing inside.

At that moment, he felt disconcerted, like something was not right.

Wearing a deep frown, Leon calmed himself down and took out his phone to take a quick scroll through Weibo.

“Hahaha! You idiot, you’re soaked.”

“Exactly. Look at how disgusting you are.”

“Everyone, come and see. It’s the idiot from our class.”

Several girls were still mocking her with their shrill and annoying voices, making Leon frown in annoyance.

Soon, Lynette also noticed what was happening.

Fuming, she turned around to look at him. “Leon, we can’t let them bully that girl like that. It’s too much!

“I remember her," she told him softly. "She’s the one who was asking you to accompany her on the piano yesterday, right?

“I heard she’s got quite the sob story. Her parents had just passed away, so her family business was taken over by her uncle and aunt.

“She’s been studying here with some of the savings her parents left behind,” Lynette added, watching her brother's cold expression intensify further as he listened.

Leon leaped to his feet and walked to the door. “What are you doing?” he exclaimed as his eyes glanced at the boys and girls surrounding the girl.
