When her world suddenly plunged into darkness, Xyla Quest instantly became fearful and wary of the nine-tailed demon fox.

She subconsciously took a deep breath, peering around her hurriedly when she heard footsteps.

Her heart racing, she carefully climbed out of bed, listening closely as those footsteps hurried.

The door swung open, and then Sharon Lindt walked in with a glowing pearl bracelet, making the room bright again.

Each pearl on the bracelet glowed brightly with a green light, illuminating the large room.

Xyla finally relaxed. She was pleasantly surprised to replace her mother-in-law coming in, bringing a pretty bracelet with her.

Sharon then approached her and directly looped the bracelet around her wrist.

She had fair skin, so the moment she put on the bracelet, her wrist shone brightly.

"Is this a luminous pearl bracelet?" she wondered in astonishment.

Each pearl looked green and full-bodied. She couldn't replace a single flaw in them.

Sharon nodded with a smile. "Yeah. Wilson and I bought this luminous pearl bracelet from an auction abroad."

Luminous pearls were worth a lot of money by themselves, but once they were made into a bracelet, the pearls were worth even more.

Something that looked so beautiful would have cost a fortune, she knew.

Xyla nodded. "I do! Why are you suddenly giving me this?"

"My friend gave her daughter-in-law a bracelet like this. I felt that my daughter-in-law should have it, too,"

Sharon answered with a chuckle.

each pearl even more clearly.

Each one was rare and exquisite.

These pearls were near impossible to acquire even with a lot of money.

Xyla seemed embarrassed to receive such an extravagant gift. "Mom, didn't I tell you not to buy me anything?"

"I wanted to," Sharon chuckled. "All right, stop nagging. Just accept it, okay?"

Xyla beamed. "Thank you, Mom."

Sharon was smiling, too. "You're welcome. I would do anything as long as you're happy."

"I'm very happy," the younger woman replied.

Still smiling, Sharon gently ruffled her hair. "Xyla, the more time I spend with Leon and Lynette, the more I feel grateful to you. Without you, I wouldn't have two such adorable grandchildren."
