Revenge of the Hideous Lady Chapter 2067
Outside, it was a vibrant spring day, bright and cloudless.With the decent weather, Xyla Quest was also in a pleasant mood.After stretching, she quickly walked into the bathroom to brush her teeth.Knock, knock, knock.Hearing someone at the door, Xyla immediately opened it to find one of the nannies standing outside.Smiling gently, she asked, “Were the kids being a nuisance last night?”“Not at all. They were great kids, barely even cried.”“That’s great,” Xyla chuckled.“Madam, I am to inform you that food is ready.” “All right, I’ll be down right away,” she replied.The nanny nodded. “Madam, you really have a special place in the family.”Xyla couldn’t resist smiling when she heard this. “Really?”“Yes, everyone in the family revolves around you," the nanny nodded. "You come first in every aspect. I was supposed to come to get you for breakfast this morning, but Ms. Lindt said that you slept late last night and that you needed more rest."“Mr. Batton is also very go

The Battons were both engrossed with their phones.On the dining table, there were six mouth-watering dishes, including seafood broth, roasted abalones, steamed fish, steamed crabs, garlic lobsters, and a tomato omelet.Every dish looked as exquisite as if a Michelin-star chef cooked it.Xyla Quest could smell all the delectable aroma as she approached the dining table.It appeared that Sharon Lindt and Wilson Batton were waiting for her as they had yet to touch any of the dishes.As soon as Sharon saw Xyla entering the dining room, she placed her phone down and approached her, holding her hand affectionately. “Come, Darling, let’s have lunch together.”By the time Xyla sat down by her side, Wilson had his phone tucked away and began serving portions of food on her plate.“Here, have more abalones. They’re good for your health. Don’t you like lobsters? Have some fish, too. It’s your favorite.”Xyla scratched her head in embarrassment upon seeing how her father-in-law served her

Xyla Quest instantly looked up at Wilson Batton. “What is it, Dad?”“Forget it. We’ll talk after lunch,” he replied.“Come on, what is it?”Could this be related to the surprise that the nanny mentioned?Wilson shook his head. “It’s nothing that can't wait until after you've eaten.”Nodding obediently, Xyla lowered her eyes and resumed eating quietly, much to the approval and adoration of Sharon Lindt upon seeing how pliant she was.Seeing her pretty daughter-in-law like this made her want to spoil her rotten.Wilson felt the same way.In his heart, he treated Xyla as his biological daughter.Beep, beep, beep—Sharon’s phone started ringing right then. Seeing the caller as her son, Stanley Batton, she promptly answered the call.“What is it, Son?”“Is Xyla awake?” he asked.“Yes, she’s having lunch,” she answered.“How’s her appetite?” he questioned.“Fantastic.”“Okay, don’t let her eat anything that might upset her stomach. She needs to eat clean,” he reminded.“I kn

“All right,” Xyla Quest replied.“Stay home and rest in the afternoon. Don’t walk around too much, and don’t play with your phone,” Stanley Batton reminded.“Okay,” she agreed readily.“Good girl.”“What are you doing now?” she asked, already missing him although they hadn’t been apart for long.“Nothing in particular. I’m just checking how everyone’s doing in each department,” he answered.“Oh. I’m having my lunch now. Your mother’s cooking is delicious,” she declared.Stanley chuckled. “Have some more, then. How about our children? Have they been good?”Apart from his wife and parents, he now had his children to miss.Xyla broke into a grin when he mentioned their children, her gaze softening. “They’ve been amazing. They’re just as happy and adorable as they were yesterday.”“Okay, you should continue with lunch. I’ll see you tonight,” he told her.“Okay.”Stanley ended the call wearing a smile on his face.Seeing how gentle and happy Stanley seemed next to him, Zack Cas

Stanley Batton instantly answered when he saw the caller was Sebastian Brenand. “What’s up?”“Rachel Wood is missing,” Sebastian said without much preamble, sounding very worried.Stanley could even sense his desperation through the phone.Frowning deeply, he asked, “When did she go missing?”“She’s been gone since last night," Sebastian answered. "All she left behind was a letter, telling me not to look for her. I only saw the letter after my meeting, but she might have left it in the morning.“I don’t know what time exactly she left because the indoor surveillance cameras lost signal in the morning while the exterior ones also failed to capture Rachel leaving. I’ve searched for her at the airport and train stations. I’ve looked everywhere. There were no signs that Rachel left,” he added in desperation.Hearing this, Xyla Quest moved closer to Stanley’s phone with a shocked expression.“What else was in the letter? Did she tell you why?” Stanley asked.Sebastian took a deep br

Sebastian Brenand was now sporting a messy, untrimmed beard, appearing exhausted.He handed his letter over to Xyla Quest the moment he walked in. “Here, what did you want to tell me?”With that, he promptly reached for a chair, placing it next to Xyla and Stanley Batton’s bed before sinking down on it.Xyla stayed in bed and directly opened Rachel Wood’s letter, noticing a dried tear mark in the center of a red flower at the bottom right of the paper.It was indicative of how heartbroken Rachel had been as she wrote this letter.However, the mark was faint, so no one would notice it with a single glance.Frowning deeply, she peered at Sebastian. “Before Rachel left, did anything happen between the two of you? Or did Rachel show any odd behavior?”Sebastian shook his head. “No, everything was fine between us. We went shopping after leaving your place the other day, and then she asked me to take her out to a fancy place for dinner. "After dinner, she was very affectionate and g

Xyla Quest was rather fond of Rachel Wood, despite not spending much time with her before. They got along quite well when they met. Xyla hoped nothing had happened to her.“Look, Rachel was crying when she wrote this letter. I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but here’s a tear mark," Xyla said, pointing to a faint smudge on the letter. "What does this mean? It means she was reluctant to leave you and possibly forced to do so.”Sebastian Brenand immediately grabbed the letter to scrutinize it.Indeed, he managed to see the tear mark under the light.At that point, he became extremely upset as he found Xyla’s analysis made sense.His parents must have forced Rachel to leave him. That was the better scenario. In another, Rachel could be locked up somewhere or worse.The more he thought about it, the more upset he felt. His knees were so weak, he might fall at any second.Seeing his reaction, Xyla slowly got out of bed and gently touched his arm. “These are all just my guesses. Per

Xyla Quest had many people by her side, but Sebastian Brenand was all alone.She sensed that Stanley Batton would want to spend time with Sebastian since they were good friends.Stanley instantly felt warmth flowing from his heart at her words, glad that his wife could understand him.With a troubled frown, he nodded wordlessly in agreement.Right then, Sebastian also felt warmth in his heart. Forcing a smile, he looked at Xyla. “Thank you, Xyla. You’re a beautiful and kind soul.”“Don’t mention it.”Stanley left with Sebastian not long after.At first, Xyla wanted to use her hacking skills to help him shed some light on some scenarios. She could hack into his parents’ surveillance system and phones to check if they’d contacted Rachel Wood.However, Stanley had already informed Zack Cassidy to do so.It was a simple task, so Xyla didn’t need to go the extra mile.The person Zack hired would find out everything even if she didn’t do anything.Xyla sat for a while until soon e
