Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2294

"Yes, Ms. Quest is very open-minded. Normally, other parents wouldn't think this way."

"Yes, Leon and Lynette are so lucky to have you as their mother."

"That's stating the obvious. Only lucky people are born into the Batton family. Isn't that so?"

"Exactly. The twins are already lucky for a start."

Xyla Quest chuckled when she heard their comments. "There's no need to exaggerate."

The rest of them laughed. "We aren't. We are only speaking our minds."

Xyla chuckled without replying to them and began to talk to Lynette Batton and Leon Batton while repeatedly kissing and hugging them. It felt so satisfying to be able to sit with them.

After staying in the nursery for a long while, she eventually went downstairs to have her lunch.

As soon as she finished her meal, Xyla returned to the nursery to spend more time with her children before reluctantly leaving the house. Although she was eager to spend time at home with them, she couldn't do that because many things needed her attention out there.

She had to be somewhat like a female warrior who could handle anything, hence she was destined to give up a lot of time with her children.

Elsewhere, Rachel Wood and Sebastian Brenand were having lunch together, eating dishes he had cooked personally.

Those dishes included a beef stew, sour-and-spicy potato strips, steamed fish, and dumplings.

Every single dish looked appetizing.

Sebastian kept researching various recipes to make sure Rachel was eating right these days.

He was as good as a trained chef now that she no longer wanted to eat out because his cooking suited her taste perfectly.

She only wanted to eat his home-cooked meals at home.

For some unknown reason, she was partial to the sour dishes made by Sebastian and would have a healthy appetite because she liked it so

much.

She was practically eating three times as much as she had before.

He felt satisfied by how much she seemed to enjoy his food.

Beep, beep, beep-

His phone started ringing right then, the sudden sound disrupting the peace in the room.

When Sebastian saw that it was from an unknown number, he immediately picked it up. "Hello?" "Come back right away, you b*stard! Your father is in the hospital."

That voice belonged to his mother, prompting him to hang up instantly the

much time had passed.

Not only that, but his hatred toward them had grown so much he could never bring himself to forgive them.

He didn't even know how to face them.

He didn't expect he'd ever go home again, even if his father had been admitted to the hospital.
