Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 968

The truth would be revealed one day.

Those who were on the dark side would have to pay for their misdeeds.

What went around came around. It was only a matter of time.

Jeremy Quest nodded in agreement. “You definitely will.”

Jeremy could not take it anymore. It all happened so suddenly.

He was heartbroken enough to find out that her daughter committed suicide, whereas his wife died of a cerebral hemorrhage.

Never in his life had he imagined that they were murdered.

Who the hell was this ‘master’?

Jeremy’s utter bewilderment was reflected in his eyes.

He was appalled when he recalled everything that had happened on Xyla Quest before.

He was so close to losing his favorite and most outstanding daughter.

“Xyla, I’m so grateful that you’re alive and well. I thank god for taking care of you. I really am scared when I think about it.” Jeremy patted Xyla’s hands, mixed feelings churning inside of him.

Xyla was touched hearing that.

She slid her fingers between Jeremy’s and forced a smile. “To be honest, I’m scared too. I was once so close to death, wasn’t I?”

There was a big boss behind May Conner and Emily Quest. This was totally out of her expectation.

She did not have the slightest idea who the big boss was. Neither did she know how long he had been controlling May and Emily to hurt her.

She thought that her life would be peaceful again after sending May and Emily to jail.

Later, Xyla wrapped her arms around Jeremy’s elbow and walked him to the funeral home.

***

Around ten o’clock at night, Jeremy dismissed the people inside the parlor.

Stanley Batton brought some people with him to switch the bodies an hour later.

May’s and Emily’s bodies were then transferred to the funeral home’s freezer.

The fake bodies were placed into their coffins.

Their mission was completed in a blink of an eye.

After switching the bodies, Xyla, Jeremy, and Stanley settled down at the parlor and acted as though nothing had happened.
