Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 931

“I came to send Georgie to work. At noon, after we ate together, she sprained her right ankle. She has just received treatment in the hospital. At first, I wanted to send her home to rest, but being the workaholic she is, she refused… I had no choice but to take her here,” Henry Armstrong said.

When Xyla Quest heard this, her heart instantly tightened. “Was it very serious?” she asked.

Henry shook his head. “It’s not exactly serious. It’s just a minor sprain.”

“In that case, I’ll go up and check on her…” Xyla said.

“Okay, go ahead… Take good care of her. I’ll take my leave now,” Henry said.

After that, Henry waved his hand at Xyla cheerfully and walked away with a lazy stride.

Once Henry had left, Xyla took her private elevator and quickly arrived at the CEO’s office.

Xyla politely knocked on the door before pushing the door to enter.

At that moment, Georgie Clementine was sitting at her large desk, carefully reading through some documents.

When Georgie saw that Xyla was here, she immediately smiled. “Xyla… Didn’t you say that you will meet me at my place in the evening?”

Xyla quickly stepped forward and kneeled directly at Georgie’s feet, carefully examining her ankle.

Right then, Georgie’s ankle was still swollen. Even the back of her foot was still red.

Seeing this made Xyla’s heart hurt.

“You’re in no condition to work. Why are you here? Shouldn’t you be resting at home?” Xyla stood up and looked at Georgie helplessly.

Georgie laughed. “I have so much work left. How could I rest just because I want to?”

“You can leave this stuff to your subordinates… Or you could even come to me,” Xyla said.

“What's the big deal? It’s just an ankle injury, not a brain injury. Come on. I’m not that weak,” Georgie said.

“The light blue suit that Morty wore when he appeared in the hot topics was picked out by Jay himself at the mall… Based on Jay’s personality, don’t you think it’s… Rather unusual for him to purposely buy clothes for Morty?” Xyla said.

Georgie immediately nodded when she heard this. “Yes… Indeed, it’s quite unusual. To be honest, now that I think about their interactions carefully, Jay does treat Morty differently even when they’re not on-screen…

“Jay really likes to tease Morty, and he would make Morty chase after him and beat him. That kind of behavior is like… Back in school, guys would treat the girls they liked like that.

“Weren’t there boys like this when we were in school? They like you, but they don’t know how to express it. Instead, they would intentionally mess with you to get your attention,” Georgie articulated each word carefully.

“Yeah.” Xyla nodded again.

“What are you going to do about it?” Georgie asked.

Beep, beep, beep—

Right at that moment, Xyla’s phone started to ring…
