Revenge of the Hideous Lady by Moonlight

Xyla Quest kept her body still and tried not to move. Any slight movement might result in her body touching Stanley Batton. The light scent of cigarettes mixed with mint smelled unbelievably good.

“Take it,” Xyla said before quickly shoving the phone into Stanley’s hand. She did not dare to look him in the eye at all.

The crystal lights that glowed brightly above Xyla’s head made her demure expression seem even more striking. Without realizing it, Xyla had accidentally moved in such a way that a strand of hair on her forehead lightly scraped against Stanley’s distinctive lips. It felt as if the tingling sensation was traveling to his heart.

Slowly, Xyla pressed her body tightly against the wall as she slid downward and eventually escaped from an open gap below his arm.

With a single hand, Stanley unlocked his phone. When he saw that the money had been accepted, he raised his brows slightly to look at Xyla’s slightly pinkish face.

“You really won’t stop until you get what you want,” he said.

“For sure,” Xyla said softly before quickly sitting on the bed. She then fished for her phone in her pocket before shifting her attention to Instagram.

All this while, Xyla could feel her face buming. The light redness continued to spread to her ears.

“This is the first time I’ve seen someone going all out to return money,” Stanley said as he slowly returned to his seat.
