Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 2413

Right then, their tables were full of love letters.

It made for a troubling sight as they exchanged glances, wondering what to do with them.

Leon Batton wanted to throw everything away, but he remembered what Lynette Batton said earlier and decided against it.

Before they could speak, their classmates had gathered around their seats to shower them with compliments.

“Lynette, you have such great hair. You could be a model in a shampoo commercial.”

"Your tie looks very neat, Leon. It looks even better than the other guys' in the class.”

The siblings were used to such compliments and didn’t take them seriously.

At the same time, students from other classes had also assembled outside their classroom entrance, hoping to have a closer look at them.

Nobody would dare claim to be more attractive than Leon and Lynette in this school. They even seemed well-liked by everyone there.

Right then, there was a lot of commotion outside the classroom.

The bell rang, indicating that a lesson was about to begin.

A pretty mathematics teacher walked in with a stack of exam papers and teaching material.

Her students fell silent as soon as they saw her in front, scattering back to their seats before she could even speak.

Although she was attractive, she didn’t seem intimidating at all.

However, she was like a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Her presence in the classroom managed to disperse the relentless crowd surrounding Leon and Lynette, bringing peace again as the air felt less suffocating.

The mathematics teacher checked on Leon briefly about his physical condition before the lesson began.

They didn't bother to pay attention since they were already familiar with the lesson, so they ducked their heads to play with their phones discreetly.

The teacher was vigilant enough to notice.

With a deep frown, she addressed them. “Lynette, Leon, what are you two doing? Put your phones away, or I’ll confiscate them.”

Hearing her, they tucked their phones away before giving her their undivided attention.

Leon displayed his usual cool demeanor while his sister appeared apologetic.

“I know you’re both smart, but you should understand the value of lifelong learning,” the teacher spoke up with a frown.

“We understand. There won’t be a next time,” Lynette assured her.

Leon kept quiet as he looked down and flipped through his book.

“You say that every time, but don’t think you know everything,” the teacher said. “Knowledge is as vast as the ocean. There are many things yet to be learned.

“You must always remain humble, understood?”

Lynette quickly nodded, but her brother didn’t respond and continued to read his book.

The teacher had gotten used to his antics by now, so she ignored him.

“All right, class. I’m going to write down a question. Let’s see who can answer it.”

With that, she promptly wrote down a mathematics question on the whiteboard.

Suddenly, all her students seemed confused.

It was something they had yet to learn.

Only the brother-sister duo seemed calm.

She glanced at them briefly before looking at the other students. “Who would like to give it a try?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Everybody shook their heads.

Then, she looked directly at Lynette and Leon. “Why don’t you two try to answer? If it's incorrect, you’ll have to pay attention in class from now on.”

Leon raised his brows slightly and returned her gaze. “What if I answer it correctly?”

“That’s impossible.” the teacher said.

“What if I do?” he asked again.
