Revenge of the Hideous Lady by Moonlight

“Alright, if there’s no thing much, hurry on back to the company. I’ll give that president’s assistant a call,” said Jeremy.
“Yeah, call me if anything happens,” said Xyla as she got up.
Jeremy nodded, and Xyla left the room. Based on the current situation, it seemed like the Dragon Group was really planning to
do charity by helping them. The possibility of this being true and not a scam was high. At this thought, she suddenly felt like she
was on cloud nine. Hopefully, this could all proceed as desired. But even if it didn’t, she wasn’t afraid, because she had the
money they needed.
From the money she earned from X Entertainment, she had saved part of it and even invested some. Due to her good sense,
her investments had been returned by a hundred folds. Since X Entertainment’s establishment until now, her accumulated wealth
was just around eight billion.

Back at the Quest Group, Xyla shut everything out as she immersed herself in work. This continued on until six in the evening.
Looking up, she realized that the skies outside had gradually darkened as the city lit up in bright, colored lights.
Pushing her swivel chair back, she lazily leaned against the backrest as she massaged her nose bridge, trying to relax. Taking
out her phone, she saw that Georgie had called her three times. As her phone was on silent mode, she hadn’t heard it ring at all.
Hence, she simply called Georgie back.
Very soon, Georgie’s voice flowed from the other end, “What’s wrong? I called so many times but you weren’t answering. If you
kept ignoring me, I would have called the police.” Her voice sounded relaxed, and there were hints of joy in it.
“I was busy with work.. ” replied Xyla.
“Yeah. It’s nothing much, but I wanted to tell you that Mary Sullivan might be detained for a month because of this incident,” said
Georgie, chuckling.
“Very nice.” Xyla laughed as well, feeling great.
“That idiot got her just deserts. And the leader of that Josh Batton’s Wives group, Coffee Bean, called me earlier to apologize
again. That girl was scared out of her wits, afraid that I was going to send her to jail. It’s the same for Mary’s hacker friend, Paris
Piglet.”

“What did you tell them?” Xyla asked.
“What else can I say? I just asked if we’ve ever promised them anything. Say, you don’t know howl got them to compromise so
quickly back then, do you? I’ll tell you, I...”
“Even if you didn’t tell me, I can guess. You must have threatened and bribed them. First, you laid out the evidence to scare
them, and then you offered money to tempt them,” said Xyla with a laugh.
Georgie chuckled again. “Yeah, that’s right. That’s how I did it.”
“How much did you spend? I’ll write it off for you.”
“No need. It’s just a mere hundred thousand. I’m paying it.” Georgie’s tone sounded joyful.
The smile on Xyla’s lips deepened. “I’ll transfer you the money later. I ’ m happy with just your regards.”
“No. Why are you being so courteous with me?”
“It’s money that you shouldn’t be forking out, so you don’t have to pay even a single cent. We’re besties, so let’s keep things
clean between us,” Xyla added.
As the girls talked, Josh called
