Revenge of the Hideous Lady

“Cancel the contract with Faye White.” Xyla Quest dived right into business.

“Why? She is a great actress and has a lot of potential. Canceling the contract with her directly would be a shame. I’ve always believed that she could become the most popular celebrity among the generation of youths born after 1995.” Georgie sounded surprised.

“How could someone as arrogant as her possibly achieve that?” Xyla asked.

“What’s the matter? Did she do something bad to you?” Georgie asked.

“She was arrogant when she spoke to me. It happened in a shopping mall. With a personality like hers, it won’t matter if she became popular. She’s already this full of herself before she had even become famous. I can only imagine how much worse it could get once she does become famous. What if someone digs up negative things about her? I don’t care if she ends up ruining her career, but what would happen to the money we have invested in her?” Xyla said.

Xyla could actually choose to bury Faye’s talent.

But she did not want to be so cruel because she had always known that being in the entertainment industry was not easy for anyone.

Someone with a personality like Faye was not allowed to stay in X Entertainment. Xyla did not want to waste resources on a person like her.

Being in the entertainment industry herself, Xyla had seen far too many actresses with Faye’s attitude. After becoming famous, they would come crashing down and never find their way back to success.

“When I first brought her into the company, she seemed fine. Ever since her career started, and after gaining some fame, she became a little too full of herself. I told her agent to talk to her about it long ago. I thought she would change,” Georgie said.

“She won’t change. Cancel the contract,” Xyla said as she pinched her nose bridge. After that, she got into her red Maserati and placed one hand on the steering wheel.

“Okay, I’ll do as you say,” Georgie said.

“Oh, yeah, President Xyla, I have some gossip to share with you. Would you like to hear about it? I swear it’s true.” Georgie suddenly sounded very mysterious.

“What is it?” Xyla suddenly felt a little curious.

“Tom Sullivan went to see a psychiatrist yesterday. Do you know why?” Georgie said.

“Why?” Xyla asked.

“Because the female body now repulses him. Whenever a woman gets close to him, he would feel nauseous. He can’t even stand his own mother and little sister,” Georgie said gleefully.

Xyla had not expected to hear this at all.

Why would a normal man behave in such a way?

“Is that true? Who did you hear it from?” Xyla asked.

“My friend. I have a friend who works as a psychiatrist. Tom Sullivan went to him. When my friend asked him why it had happened, Tom refused to say a word. He even paid my friend to keep it a secret,” Georgie said.

“That sure is good news.” Xyla snorted coldly.

Although she did not know why it happened to Tom, she still felt happy about it.

The only reason a normal man would find a woman’s body repulsive was if he had gone through a horrifying experience with a woman in bed. There was no other plausible explanation for it.

Xyla was curious about what kind of a woman Tom had bumped into to have caused such a thing to happen to him.

One thing Xyla was sure of was that this woman could not be Emily Quest. When Tom tried to rape her the other day, he still seemed normal.

Tom must have been addicted to cheating. He was having sex with other women even before he had divorced properly.

But Xyla was not particularly surprised by the idea.

After the call ended, Xyla returned to the shopping mall to buy a piece of jewelry with the same value as Sharon’s gifts.

After that, Xyla drove away.

Every street was decorated with red lanterns. Each store had red spring festival couplets hung in front of their doors. It felt as if the entire world was celebrating a festive season.

Xyla was reminded of the sentiments of celebrating the new year.

Last night, Stanley Batton had told her that he would be busy on new year’s day. Hence, he would not be coming home for lunch.

Since Xyla was not feeling hungry yet, she took a spin around the city.

By one o’clock in the afternoon, Xyla had returned home with some takeaway food.
