Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1703

Regardless of how many people were around Xyla Quest, she remained elegant…

Something about the calmness in her eyes made it apparent she was used to major scenes like this.

After finishing what she wanted to say, Xyla handed the microphone over to Bobby Cates…

Bobby grabbed the microphone and looked cautiously at the reporters. “Our family is delighted about this wedding… Annabeth is lucky to marry into the Batton family. So we’re all happy for her.”

After that, Bobby frantically passed the microphone back to Stanley.

“Xyla… We just found out that your ex, Tom Sullivan, had been sentenced to five years in prison for taking drugs and offering them to others. He’s currently in a rehab center in Atlantis for his treatment. However, once his treatment is done, he’ll be sent to prison. Do you have anything to say to this?” a female reporter asked Xyla…

However, Xyla smiled slightly and looked at her. “I have nothing to say. Everyone needs to be responsible for their actions. Once a mistake is made, one will have to pay for it…”

Xyla was straightforward with her answer.

In fact, there wasn’t any emotion on her face.

It was almost as if Tom was a stranger who simply crossed her path at one point.

At the same time, in a tiny room at a rehab center in Atlantis, Tom, whose head was shaved, curled up in pain in the corner. He hyperventilated as he watched Xyla’s interview on the television.

With his withdrawal symptoms kicking in, he felt extremely awful.

It felt as if ants were biting him from within his bones.

He ached and itched.

The intense discomfort made his entire body tremble.

The torture of abstaining from drugs had made him thin as a stick.

Due to poor sleeping habits and a lack of appetite, Tom’s face was drained of color…

There were dark shadows beneath his eyes.

What about Tom?

He was so downtrodden that he could only watch Xyla through the screen in prison…

The woman who thought of him as the world had completely forgotten about him. She was now in another man’s arms, getting better by the day.

As time went on, and with Tom spending many sleepless nights in this place alone, he had thought about a lot of things.

The best girl he’d met in his life was Xyla…

But he had lost her.

Tom thought that perhaps this was karma.

He had learned from his mistakes now.

However, it was too late.
