Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2052

The cradles were identical, both white and had wind chimes of pink, blue, and various other colors above them.

At that moment, the twins were staring at their parents, their pure gazes seemingly capable of melting everything in sight.

As soon as Xyla Quest saw her children, she instantly found herself relaxing significantly.

They were like a drug to her.

No matter how much pain she felt, they'd instantly make her feel better.

The moment their eyes met, the children smiled at her, instantly melting her heart.

'My children are so adorable. I have to stay by their side and watch them grow.'

From then on, Xyla vowed to keep her emotions in check. She'd start working out and keep herself physically healthy.

It was the only way she could deal with the hurdles that awaited her and remain healthy so that she could be with her children for a long, long time.

Inhaling deeply, Xyla slowly picked up Leon Batton, noting how soft he felt to the touch.

She was so careful with him because she wasn't used to handling children from lack of opportunity.

She refrained from moving around too much in fear of injuring his bones.

The child in her arms seemed so fragile, so she needed to be very careful.

Seeing her awkwardness, Stanley instantly reached out and carefully supported Leon's head before helping his wife to reposition the baby comfortably. Once Xyla felt steady, she carefully pressed her forehead against Leon's, prompting his soft little hands to reach up and touch her face.

He held onto Xyla's face with both hands gently, his tender touch almost moving her to tears.

She wished this moment could last forever.

She had known all along that a child could bring a lot of joy to a family. They would make a mother stronger and gentler.

However, she didn't think it would feel this intense.

A childless woman would never experience this indescribable feeling.

Leon had a fragrant, milky scent that wafted through Xyla's nostrils. It had a very pleasant aroma.

"Leon is adorable," she couldn't resist saying, her gaze gentling and seemingly capable of melting all the coldness in the world.

"Aa... Gu... Aa... Oh..." Leon beamed. It was almost as if he could understand what Xyla was saying. His tender lips opened and closed while he uttered vowels and consonants. It was so precious to see. Everyone around him including his mother couldn't help but laugh.

"Waa... Waah..."

Right then, Lynette Batton started crying loudly, her fair face turning red. She seemed to be upset about being neglected.

Xyla carefully handed Leon over to Stanley before quickly walking over to Lynette's cradle to pick her up with a smile on her face. She then slowly paced back and forth. "Hey, hey. Are you jealous? Hmm? Here, let me hold you for a while."

"Aa... Gu... Aa... Yah..." Lynette cried instantly when she heard this, peering up at Xyla with her slightly reddened eyes before beginning to smile.

It was as if she could also understand what her mother said.

Xyla thought this was very mysterious. Her children seemed to be more advanced than she imagined.

Nearby, Sharon seemed to be mesmerized at the sigh of them.

She quickly stepped forward and caressed Lynette's plump cheeks. "Looks like Lynette does understand what her mother says. She's adorable. "You're the most adorable girl in the world, Lynette," Sharon gushed.

"Waa... Ahh... Gu..." Lynette mumbled at her in return, which made Sharon turn into goo even more.

She wished she could spend the rest of her life with her grandchildren, never parted from them.

Wilson Batton also moved forward and affectionately caressed Lynette's face.

"Mom, since the nannies are here, you and Dad should go back and get some rest, Xyla suggested as she continued, to hold Lynette. "You've been working hard all this while and being away from Dad for so long. You two should spend some time

together. Go on a roma meti

dinner

date or something."

Sharon instantly shook her head in refusal. "No, I don't want to leave. I want to stay here and watch over the kids."

Then, she appeared to be considering something before she spoke up. "Xyla, I've changed my mind. Can I stay here with you? Wilson and I will both stay here to watch over the kids.

"Don't worry, we won't get involved

with matters between you and Stanley We'll try to stay out of your lives as much as possible," she said

before raising three of her fingers as

if she was swearing an oath.

At first, she had intended to go home to be with Wilson after Xyla's postpartum recovery period. She was supposed to leave the children to the nannies.

However, as the bond between her and her grandchildren grew, she realized now she couldn't bring herself to leave.

Sharon wanted to always be by their side.

Xyla felt her heart give a warm twinge. "Sure."

For Xyla, she had previously encouraged Sharon to return home

after her postpartum recovery period. It wasn't because she didn't

want to live with Sharon, but simply because she didn't want her working too hard.

After all, based on Sharon's nature, she wouldn't be able to stop laboring if she stayed with Xyla.

She'd keep herself occupied tending to Lynette and Leon.

However, since Sharon insisted on staying, Xyla was fine with that as long as she was happy.

Xyla didn't mind living with her in-laws as she already thought of them as dearly as her biological parents.

She wasn't worried about any conflicts arising just because they lived together.

"You must promise me that you won't drive yourself to exhaustion if you stay here. Don't keep yourself occupied with the children all day long. All right?" she asked.

Sharon nodded in agreement. She may have agreed, but it was easier said than done.

She would always want to be with the children as they were her favorite grandchildren in the family. Sharon felt an unusual attachment to them because they'd been by her side ever since they were born. When Xyla heard Sharon's reply, she immediately nodded in relief.
