Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 1552

At the same time, the kitchen and maids also gradually walked into the kitchen with the prepared dishes.

The entire large, round dining table was full of all sorts of delicious dishes.

Ten minutes later, Xyla Quest, Stanley Batton, Jeremy Quest, and Betty Starmount went to wash their hands together. After that, they entered the dining room one after another. Jeremy sat on the main seat while Betty sat on his left. Meanwhile, Xyla sat on Jeremy's right.

Stanley then sat next to Xyla on the other side.

"Xyla, Stan, have a taste of Betty's dish." Then, Jeremy gave Xyla and Stanley a piece of braised pork each with a smile on his face.

The braised pork Betty made had a bright, red tone. It smelled very fragrant.

There were even quail eggs added to the dish. Each of the quail eggs was soaked in the rich broth, making it appear even more irresistible.

"Thank you." Xyla smiled a little. After that, she placed the braised pork in her mouth.

The braised pork tasted delicious. It melted right away in Xyla's mouth. Although it had bits of fats, it didn't taste oily.

Xyla immediately raised her thumb. "Yeah, it tastes good..."

Betty immediately smiled satisfactorily when she saw this. After that, she placed another piece of braised pork on Xyla's plate. "If it tastes good, have some more, boss... No, I mean... Xyla." "Thank you," Xyla replied politely.

Although Xyla had her biases toward Betty, she still had to keep up appearances because her father liked Betty and the things he said.

At least, Xyla couldn't ruin the mood and make her father unhappy. Jeremy didn't ask about the conversation between Xyla and Betty. However, he could approximately guess what it sounded like. Jeremy was overjoyed by how well the two seemed to get along. There was a look of joy in his eyes that couldn't be concealed.

After the meal, Xyla held Jeremy's hand and walked with him in the small garden behind the house.

At the end of autumn, cool breezes abound. The air was peasant too.

Some of the leaves on trees had already turned yellow. When a breeze blew over, some leaves gradually took flight and eventually fell to the ground.

At first glance, the leaves looked like butterflies that came to life.

On the path full of white cobblestones, golden leaves of Ginkgo trees were all over the ground.

A large patch of golden leaves already covered the entire surface of the ground. It looked as beautiful as a dream...

Right then, the entire world seemed as beautiful as film footage that had been filtered with a warm tone.

A single leaf fell on Xyla's shoulder. She carefully flicked it away before looking at Jeremy. "I told Betty what I needed to say...

"I told her that I accept you two being together. I also told her... If she dares to do anything to hurt you, I won't let her off the hook," Xyla said softly.

Jeremy immediately smiled affectionately when he heard this. "Thank you, Xyla..."

Xyla smiled. "As long as you're happy. That's all I want for you..."

"I'm very happy now..." Jeremy said.

Xyla's smile gradually widened.

A ray of light shone upon Xyla's fair, smooth skin. It made her expression appear unusually gentle.

Beep, beep, beep-
