If a pregnant woman stayed out, away from her home, her family wouldn't even get to see her. How could that work?

Her family needed to see her at least twice each day.

"Dad, don't worry about this. Relax..." Stanley Batton looked at Wilson Batton and said calmly.

"How can I relax?" Wilson argued. He rolled his eyes at Stanley. "I'm telling you. If anything happens to the two babies and my daughter-in-law, I'll honestly kill you for agreeing to let Xyla stay outside on her own..."

"Stanley, isn't your heart way too big? You really are too relaxed about this..." Sharon Lindt also started complaining.

"Listen to me... I have my plans..." Stanley insisted.

After hearing what Stanley said, Sharon and Wilson kept quiet.

After sending Catherine Batton off in the afternoon, Stanley went home with Xyla. Once Xyla finished packing up her luggage, Stanley sent her over to Team XS's base.

Upon arriving at the base, Xyla began training with everyone nervously...

With the finals getting closer, the entire team was in a nervous fit.

Even the lady in charge of their meals felt equally nervous.

In fact, the team's management staff even spoke carefully in the base for fear of disrupting the team members.

To avoid making everyone worried about herself, Xyla didn't tell everyone that she was pregnant.

When she wanted to rest, she'd say that she was tired.

Time passed unusually quickly when one was busy.

Without realizing it, it was already time for dinner...

Up to ten thousand houses were brightly lit outside the base.

At one glance, the entire city was lit up with gorgeous lights.

Within the base, the entire villa was also lit up.

The whole world seemed as bright as day.

Outside, an autumn breeze sent leaves swirling and falling to the ground, making it feel even more like autumn.

Although it was very cold outside, it felt extremely comfortable inside the base because of the heater that was permanently switched on.

When they arrived at the dining room on the top floor, the team's management staff and coaches were all there...

The cooking lady was setting up the table. Due to Xyla's request for a healthy and nutritious meal, she prepared a table full of delicious dishes.

There were all sorts of exotic delicacies.

The cooking lady's culinary skill was very advanced. Hence, all the dishes were comparable to those prepared in five-star hotels.

After Xyla sat down, the others also gradually sat down.

As everyone had gotten to know Xyla, they didn't behave too formally. After sitting down, everyone started enjoying the delicious food.

Recently, Xyla completely stopped retching.

She had a healthy appetite now.

Every piece of meat she ate made her feel extremely happy.

When Xyla saw how exhausted her team members next to her looked, she felt awful for them...

"Make sure you all get proper rest. Look at you. Everyone looks terrible..." Xyla said as she ate some braised pork.

Alex chuckled. His recently dyed black hair was split in a three-to-seven ratio that glistened brightly under the light. "The most important match is coming up. Whether we fail or succeed depends on this. For now, we can't afford to rest. As much as we can, we'll try not to rest... There'll be plenty of time for us to rest after winning the title of champion..." He said.

The young man was glowing confidently. It was as if the champion's trophy was within an arm's reach.

The others also agreed with him...

After that, the team members started eating faster.
