The caller was Zack Cassidy.Stanley Batton immediately picked up the call.A large meeting room filled with top executives on the top floor of Dragon Group’s office building was completely silent on the other side of the call. Zack stood by the empty main seat as he spoke softly to Stanley on the phone. “Mr. Batton, the top executives are all here. When will the meeting start?”Stanley frowned and glanced at his expensive watch. “Cancel today’s meeting.”“But…” Zack's voice trailed off.Didn’t they need to discuss and decide on something important during the meeting today?“My wife needs me,” Stanley said before hanging up directly.His voice thundered clearly over the phone in the silent meeting room.The people closer to Zack were able to hear what Stanley said.Suddenly, everyone in the meeting room erupted into discussions.Recently, Stanley had missed countless meetings because of his wife's health.People change.In the past, Stanley always took his time at work se

When the call ended, Stanley Batton walked over to Xyla Quest and held her hand.She turned around to gaze at him quizzically. “Did something come up in the office?”“No, nothing,” he replied.“I heard the word ‘meeting’. Do you have a meeting?” Xyla questioned further.Whenever her husband hosted a meeting, it involved something significant.“Yeah, but it’s not important,” he insisted.She knew he was lying. “You should go. You’ve already put off a lot of work because of me recently. If this goes on, your staff might start to gossip.”Xyla had no idea that people were already talking about it.Every employee in Dragon Group knew how much Stanley worried about his wife. He practically followed Xyla everywhere for twenty-four hours a day.“It’s fine, I can continue working tomorrow.”“Don’t worry about me. I am all right,” she insisted, knowing very well why Stanley had canceled his meeting again.He was concerned that she wouldn’t have anyone to talk to when she was in a bad

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

Since Xyla Quest and Sharon Lindt had mutually agreed, there wasn’t much Stanley Batton or Wilson Batton could say.In the Batton family, the wives were in charge. Any man who wasn’t good to his wife would be doomed.The best way to be good to one’s wife was to keep her happy.As long as Xyla and Sharon were happy, Stanley and Wilson would be fine with anything.Besides, Stanley didn’t mind having his parents around, and Wilson was also reluctant to leave his grandchildren.“Come here, let me hold Leon,” Wilson smiled before lifting Leon Batton carefully into his arms.As soon as their eyes met, Leon began smiling sweetly again, making Wilson wish he could give him the entire world.He had no idea how such adorable children could exist in the world.They were practically angels.Not only were they smart and beautiful, but they were also adorable.Now that he held Leon in his arms, he wanted his turn with Lynette Batton.He couldn’t get enough of the twins.“Xyla, let’s exch

Stanley Batton pinched his forehead helplessly before walking up to Xyla Quest. “Are you hungry?” he asked softly.Xyla was in a much better mood after playing with her child. She nodded as she was beginning to feel hungry.“Oh, look at me. I’d forgotten that I already prepared dinner," Sharon Lindt exclaimed when she heard them. "You should hurry down to the kitchen and eat your dinner. Stan, heat the food up for Xyla, will you? She should eat something warm now.”“Okay, got it,” Stanley answered obediently.“Also, Xyla shouldn't be touching cold water or there could be issues later,” she added.“All right, I know.”The nannies were observing their exchange speechlessly, exchanging glances every so often.They were able to establish each family member's ranking from the short time they’d spent with the Batton family.Xyla and Sharon came first, followed by the two children, and then Wilson and Stanley came lastIt was a strange family.These women had worked for many rich

The weather had changed drastically outside, turning everything dark around Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton.They couldn’t even see their own hands.Xyla subconsciously wrapped her arms around Stanley’s neck.Why was this strange phenomenon taking place? Was the nine-tailed demon fox here?Stanley tightened his hold on his wife, not daring to let go as he frowned while peering around cautiously.And then everything brightened up again, causing them to squint.Right then, Xyla noticed a book and a silver hairpin on the final step of the staircase not far away from where they stood.The silver hairpin had a simple yet elegant design with a red gemstone engraved on its edge.Xyla was stunned.Meanwhile, a look of surprise also appeared across Stanley’s face as he promptly carried Xyla down the stairs before setting her down carefully.He then picked up the silver hairpin and book.The book was the classic kind of book they frequently saw in period dramas with a dark blue cover.

In the next second, both Stanley Batton and Xyla Quest heard a woman’s voice.“Keep these objects with you. They will be useful at a critical moment.”Her voice was unusually delicate and pleasant to hear.It didn’t sound like an ordinary human’s voice.Although they could hear her, they couldn’t see the woman as their eyes darted around, looking for the disembodied voice.Then, the couple exchanged glances when they found nothing except a light floral scent in the house.There was an aroma of wintersweet flowers and even hints of snow when Xyla inhaled deeply.Did an elf or a fairy come to their aid? Or was this the nine-tailed demon fox’s disguise?Xyla’s instincts were telling her that it was the former.“Don’t overthink it. I’m not the nine-tailed demon fox. Keep those objects.” The woman’s voice still sounded gentle.Xyla’s eyes filled with wonder again.It was impressive that the woman knew what she was thinking.She only denied being the nine-tailed demon fox, but sh

“Yeah,” Stanley Batton replied.“I think she's related to the plum flower birthmarks on the back of our children’s hands,” Xyla Quest said.“Yeah,” he uttered.“That’s why I think she was telling the truth. My instincts tell me the same,” she added.“Yeah.” Appearing to be lost in thoughts, Stanley said very little, and seeing him this way made her a little curious.“What is it?”Stanley gently hugged her before holding onto the book in his hand. “I just feel that all this is getting stranger by the second.”Xyla nodded slightly. “Yeah.”Things were getting stranger.“She said the objects would be able to help us during a crucial moment. What did she mean by that?“Maybe the silver hairpin contained magic or fairy essence?“Maybe something sealed inside will come out and help us during a crucial moment?“And what about the blank book? It doesn’t look like it contains any fairy essence. I can’t see what it’s useful for, but maybe it's a martial art manual or a cultivation ma
