The longer Sharon Lindt looked at Xyla Quest, the more sorry she felt for Xyla.This time, she swore sheโd stand up for her daughter-in-law, even if Stanley was her biological son. She would not forgive him easily.All jerks who cheated on their partners deserved to die, including Stanley Batton.โDonโt worry, Xyla. Everything he owns is under your name anyway. If you do get a divorce, you can torture him whichever way you like.โIf you wanted him to lose everything while you and your child live a happy life together, I have nothing against that decision. I believe Stanleyโs father would feel the same way,โ Sharon added confidently.Xyla let out a long, helpless sigh. โMom, can I say something?โFrom the moment Sharon walked in, sheโd been the only one speaking.Xyla couldnโt even get a word in.She had no opportunity to explain the situation despite wanting to.Sharon nodded immediately and pulled Xyla away as if she was caring for a sick patient. โOkay, Xyla. Go ahead, Iโll

Xyla Quest nodded repeatedly. โYes, if Stanley ever dares to cheat on me, I would definitely catch him along with the b*tch. I am so calm because that girl really is Stanleyโs younger sister.โSharon Lindt looked confused. โWhich sister? Catherine isnโt home. Before the rumor about Stanley started, I even chatted with Catherine on a video call, and she was still abroad at the time. His other sisters had not returned as well. Perhaps she's a distant cousin who came back without telling me? But thatโs impossible as well.โAll my nieces and nephews are fond of me. The first thing they would do upon coming home to the country would be to visit me., but not before calling to ask if I wanted any souvenir,โ Sharon said while carefully analyzing the situation.โDid Stanley tell you about her being his sister? If so, I suggest you donโt believe him so easily. Women need to be wiser and not believe everything a man says,โ she added boldly.Seeing how upset she was and hearing her words, Xyla

โMom, to be honest, you donโt have to be so skeptical,โ Xyla Quest said.However, Sharon Lindt rolled her eyes at Xyla. โItโs always better for women to be a little more careful. You might think Iโm usually very carefree, but Iโm much more cautious than you are in this regard.โYou really should be more wary. If your man cheats on you, and you donโt even know it, yet you keep giving everything you have in the relationship, donโt you think thatโs sad?โ Sharon asked.They were both women. Sharon could relate to the feeling all too well.At that moment, Xyla felt as if she was turning to mush on the inside.Sharon did care about her.Otherwise, why would she say those things about her son?Xyla chuckled. โMom, donโt worry. I know where to draw the line.โโIf thatโs the case, you wouldnโt have believed in everything he said,โ Sharon replied.โThatโs not true,โ Xyla maintained.Sharon shook her head helplessly, a look of annoyance flashing on her face. โRegardless, you shouldnโt g

At that point, Sharon Lindt felt deeply troubled and upset.Sophie Kenwick politely nodded at her and smiled before heading upstairs obediently.Still, Sharon had a dark expression on her face, her face remained unsmiling.Stanley Batton calmly walked over to his mother and wife before taking a seat across from them.โAlright, start explaining.โ Sharon wanted to see how Stanley would talk his way out of this.Right then, she was looking at him in a way that seemed as if she was a cop interrogating a suspect.The stern gaze made Stanley frown slightly.Stanley raised his brows slightly. โItโs not what you think.โSharon didnโt say a single word. She had a cold expression on her face that seemed to say, โwe'll see about that".Stanley pinched his forehead helplessly. โShe is my sister. It is not the kind of relationship you imagine. I adopted her a long time ago.โStories about past lives and reincarnations might be too far-fetched for his mother right then. Even if Stanley e

Xyla Quest might be a naive girl, but Sharon Lindt couldnโt afford to be one.Sharon had to be more skeptical for Xyla and her childrenโs sake.โYeah, itโs true. Why would I lie to you? Besides, do you think Xyla is that gullible?โ Stanley Batton asked in return.โWhy wouldnโt I? Xyla is such a naive girl, so of course, sheโs gullible. Iโm telling you, youโd better be telling the truth. Otherwise, Iโll make sure you pay for it. I will only ever accept Xyla as my daughter-in-law,โ Sharon warned.โIf Xylaโs around, youโll be around. If she's gone, then youโre dead,โ she added.Stanley didnโt say anything further. Instead, he silently handed his mother a leather folder.Sharon eyed her son suspiciously. โWhat is this?โโYouโll find out once you open it, wonโt you?โSharon opened the leather folder with a curious mind, finding 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 gir

The moment their eyes met, Sophie Kenwick immediately beamed at Sharon Lindt.Sharon had to admit that the girl was really pretty. Although she wasnโt as good-looking as Xyla Quest, she was still pretty by any standards.It was rare for her to see a girl who was not completely overshadowed next to Xyla.Sophieโs beauty and her sad past made her heart soften even more.On the surface, however, she still looked stern.Sharon nodded slightly at Sophie before pointing at the seat next to her. โCome here.โSophie nervously grabbed Xylaโs hand and subconsciously glanced at her.Xyla had briefly explained to Sophie all about who Sharon was and why she came here.The younger girl had no idea what Sharon was thinking, except that she didn't like her much.Xyla smiled. โDonโt be afraid. My mother-in-law is a very nice person.โSophie nodded before taking a seat nervously next to Sharon.โNice to meet you...umm,โ Sophie said hesitantly.โSince youโre Stanleyโs adopted sister, you are

โIโm so glad to see youโre so good to Xyla. Youโre a wonderful mother-in-law. She is very fortunate to have you, and so is my brother.โWith your character, the family would avoid conflicts significantly.โ Sophie Kenwick offered her thoughts and compliments without holding back.She was saying all these things from the bottom of her heart.Seeing how serious the girl seemed, Sharon Lindt no longer felt worried.At the same time, her facial expression also began to soften. She was now able to relax.Sharon reached out to hold Sophieโs hand. โAs long as you donโt get any wrong ideas about your brother, weโll be good friends. No, I mean, mother and daughter.โSophie chuckled. โDonโt worry, I wonโt.โStanley Batton was her biological brother. How could she have feelings for him? She would never be such a beast.โOkay, have you eaten?โ Sharon asked.โNot yet.โโIn that case, Iโll start cooking. Do you like sweet-and-sour pork ribs?โ Sharon inquired.Sophie nodded.โThatโs great!

She was used to being cared for, being adored, being protected, and being appreciated.She felt just like a princess.Xyla didnโt have to do any chores around the house.Stanley Batton gently kissed her on the forehead before heading into the kitchen.

Over time, Leonโs feelings for Hannah grew deeper, stronger, and more intense.He had grown used to having her with him all the time.Thus, he hoped she would stay by his side for the rest of his life.Upon hearing his words, Hannahโs mind went blank.What did her dream guy just say?Was she dreaming?Hannah quickly pinched her palm at the thought in an attempt to discern between dream and reality.Her palm hurt.

Immediately after, the men in black pulled out guns from their pockets, which they aimed at Raymondโs head.Raymond panicked instantly, going pale.He subconsciously retreated a step back. โWho are you? Donโt you know what youโre doing is illegal?โLeon sneered. โYou donโt deserve to know my name. In this city, I am the law.โLeonโs domineering words made him seem even more imposing.At this moment, Hannah felt as if he was a guardian angel sent from Heaven to protect her.Something about him seemed oddly sacred and heavenly.โMr. Batton, do I shoot him in the head?โ One of the men dressed in black asked.โMr. Batton? Are you Stanley Battonโs son?!โ Fear was beginning to spread through Raymond. For one to have Batton as his surname and act this arrogantly in Atlantis, he could be none other than a member of the renowned Batton family.โHow dare you address our president by name?!โ Another man in black leveled Raymond with a chilling glare.Suffice to say, Raymond was terrif
