Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 1884

Xyla Quest might be a naive girl, but Sharon Lindt couldn't afford to be one.

Sharon had to be more skeptical for Xyla and her children's sake.

"Yeah, it's true. Why would I lie to you? Besides, do you think Xyla is that gullible?" Stanley Batton asked in return.

"Why wouldn't I? Xyla is such a naive girl, so of course, she's gullible. I'm telling you, you'd better be telling the truth. Otherwise, I'll make sure you pay for it. I will only ever accept Xyla as my daughter-in-law," Sharon warned.

"If Xyla's around, you'll be around. If she's gone, then you're dead," she added.

Stanley didn't say anything further. Instead, he silently handed his mother a leather folder.

Sharon eyed her son suspiciously. "What is this?"

"You'll replace out once you open it, won't you?"

Sharon opened the leather folder with a curious mind, replaceing a document inside.

Glancing at Stanley again, she quickly retrieved the document.

It was an adoption letter.

The document proved that he had adopted a girl by the name of Sophie Kenwick. Attached was a photo of the girl who looked like the one Sharon had met earlier.

There was even an official stamp. It didn't look like a fraud.

After seeing all this, Sharon finally stopped worrying. "Fine, I'll believe you for now."

Sometimes, Stanley genuinely wondered if he was really Sharon's biological son.

"Anyway, remember what I said and what we taught you. If you aren't good to your wife, you'll end up dead, got it? Men in the Batton family must love their wives with all their hearts. You must do everything you can to keep Xyla happy," Sharon said.

"I know," Stanley said, nodding.

Xyla held her husband's hand and

gazed

rently at Sharon. "Mom,

We'll be fine. Besides, St

has always been good to me."

"He wouldn't dare to do otherwise. Since that girl is his sister, ask her to come

Shard like to meet her

From now on, we'll be a family,"

Sharon said.

Naturally, she did not only want to meet the young girl, but she had a lot of things to say to that girl.

The girl was indeed pitiful.

Xyla chuckled. "Okay, I'll go upstairs to get her."

With that, Xyla left, prompting the older woman to regard her son with a stern gaze and began nagging again.

"Do you remember what I said?"

Stanley let out another long, helpless sigh. "Yes! But can you stop nagging now?"

He couldn't take it anymore.

"You may

I have foot like what you hear, but

now

Say it. You have a fathing

you'd better not do anything "Sharon warned.

Stanley nodded without responding.

Sharon also fell silent.

Now that she had found out the truth, she was in a good mood.

Soon, Xyla and Sophie walked down the stairs, hand in hand.

The moment Sophie came down, her eyes met with hers.
