Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) -
Chapter 2285
At night, Xyla Quest, Stanley Batton, Josh Batton, Annabeth Cates, Rachel Wood, and Sebastian Brenand gathered at the Armstrong family's house to visit Georgie Clementine and the latest addition to the family.
Henry Armstrong's mother had prepared a feast for everyone, which they enjoyed immensely.
After dinner, everyone moved to the living room, where two tables had been set up for poker.
Xyla passed on poker in favor of heading up to the nursery, where she found Georgie observing while a few nannies fed bottled milk to Landon Armstrong.
The entire room had a light milky scent, one that instantly melted Xyla's heart whenever she smelled it.
Georgie was on her bed but quickly moved aside to pat the space next to her. "Here, have a seat."
Xyla smiled and sat down. "Are you bored during postpartum recovery?"
She instantly nodded in relief as if she'd finally met someone who understood her. "How could it not be boring? I'm practically dying of boredom over here.
"I hope the rest of the time is over soon so that I can get back to the office and work.
"You have no idea how much I miss the office. I worry the company can't cope without me and that you can't handle everything by yourself.
"To be honest, I should get back to my normal routine after a month, but Henry's parents won't allow it," she grumbled with a heavy sigh.
"I have to listen to them, don't I? After all, it is for my own good. I shouldn't upset my in-laws over something minor like this," she added.
Xyla nodded in understanding and smiled. "Yeah, stay at home and rest. Postpartum recovery is crucial for women.
"And, as for the company, I can deal with everything on my own even without you around. Don't worry."
She nodded helplessly. "What can
do even if I can't stop worrying? km practically under house arrest, tam not allowed to read anything or even worry."
Georgie felt both sad and happy at the same time as she spoke.
"Good in-laws are like that," Xyla chuckled. "Honestly, I never thought you guys would get along one day."
She always thought their animosity would never dissipate. At best, they would treat each other respectfully but at arm's length.
It would be chaotic if they never got along.
The sudden change in her in-laws' attitude was surprising.
Georgie laughed after hearing this. "Exactly. I didn't expect this would happen either. We are pretty good now, and I'm honestly grateful for everything they have done for me. I will surely repay their kindness in the future."
"Yeah, I'm glad to see that you're happy, Georgie."
Xyla felt happiest when people around her were happy. There was a feeling of satisfaction knowing that.
Georgie chuckled. "I'm glad to see you happy. too."
Xyla's smile gradually widened.
"Is the company doing well recently? Is there anything I can do? You have to deal with everything in X
Entertainment and Quest Group net`
There must be countless issues to handle. I'll bet you must be feeling suffocated."
Georgie felt very sorry for her friend then and could only hope for time to pass by swiftly so that she could return to the company to help her out.
