Chapter 2041

Stanley Batton and Yaksha became teary seeing Xyla Quest breaking down.Stanley went down on one knee and carefully wiped her tears away. “Don’t be like this, Xyla. Have you forgotten that your father never liked seeing you cry?”His words reminded her of the past.When she was seven, her father brought her to experience life in the village.On the third day, she fell sick, and her fever wouldn’t subside.However, the village was inaccessible for transportation, so her father, Jeremy Quest, didn’t drive his car.Tortured by the sickness, young Xyla kept crying.Jeremy was so worried that he carried her several miles away to look for a hospital in town.Xyla vividly remembered that it was snowing heavily that night, and they had left in a hurry.Jeremy managed to put on a thick coat for Xyla, but he only wore regular, casual winter wear.The harsh northern winds, accompanied by cold snowflakes, kept blustering against their bodies. Jeremy was freezing at the time, but he was d

Chapter 2042

Xyla Quest was now an orphan.Stanley Batton cradled her face when he saw that she had stopped crying. “Honey, let’s go back, all right? Don’t be sad anymore. Tell me, what can I do for you to feel better? Hmm?”If Stanley could do anything to make her happy, he would surely do it. He would go through hell for her.However, Xyla closed her eyes helplessly without uttering a word.Right then, Yaksha, who had been silent all this while, spoke up. “You’ve been sitting for a long time, and your wound can’t handle it. Let’s head back.”Slowly opening her eyes, she gazed helplessly at him. “Can I sit here for ten more minutes? I just want to look at my father.”She would never see his face again after leaving this time.Her father’s corpse would be cremated, turning into a pile of ash.The face that made Xyla feel at peace would forever be gone from this world.Yaksha nodded helplessly, letting her have her way.Ten minutes later, he activated the teleport amulet without asking h

“She was talking before she suddenly died. The pathologist is here to investigate the cause of her death,” Zack Cassidy told them.Nobody had expected things to end that way.Sharon Lindt, Xyla Quest, and Stanley Batton all wore shocked expressions.“Let me know when you find out,” Stanley said before hanging up.“She died just like that. After hurting us so badly, it seems too easy on her,” Xyla lamented, still wishing she could shred Betty Starmount to pieces.Her shocking death wasn’t enough to appease her. She wanted to question Betty about the location of that nine-tailed demon fox, but now that plan was ruined. Perhaps, this was all pre-determined as everything happened by fate.Xyla couldn’t have her way just because she wanted it.She probably wouldn’t find the nine-tailed demon fox until it executed its plan, but she wasn't about to give up.She wanted to change her fate, not allowing anything like her father’s tragedy to happen again.It was the only time she would

Chapter 2045

Xyla Quest knew that Sharon Lindt only had her best interest at heart.People often said that the true colors of a person's in-laws would be revealed once a woman gave birth.This time, Xyla got to know the Batton family even better as the kindest people, apart from her father.They genuinely adored and pampered her.Throughout the entire month of her postpartum recovery, Sharon Lindt and Stanley Batton were the ones who constantly stayed by her side to look after her, refusing to let anyone else visit at the hospital.While Stanley attended to work during the day, Sharon was the only one in the ward, looking after two children.However, she never once complained.At times, Xyla wanted to help whenever she was too busy, but Sharon would order her to get back to bed. She made sure Xyla and her children were well taken care of.During this time, Sharon and Stanley acted like Xyla’s guardian angels, protecting her and the children daily and nightly.“To be honest, I just want t

Chapter 2046

Sharon Lindt protected Xyla Quest as if she was a fragile object.Xyla smiled. “Thank you, Mom.”While observing her family, Xyla silently swore in her heart that she would do everything she could to be good to them for the rest of her life.“Oh, can I play with my phone for a while?” Xyla asked cautiously.During this period, Sharon had strictly limited her access to her phone, believing that she could fall sick from the strain.Many times, Xyla felt like a kid again.Sharon contemplated for a few seconds. “Okay, but not too long. Five minutes is all you get.”“Okay, sure.” Xyla chuckled, willing to behave if it made her worry less.Xyla quickly turned her phone on as soon as Sharon handed it to her, opening Weibo to check on the trending headers.For someone who used to scroll through Weibo every day, being away for an entire month made Xyla feel alienated from the world for far too long.Seeing that her children made it onto the list of hot topics in Weibo, she noticed Jos

Sharon Lindt gently ruffled Xyla Quest’s hair. “Be good. Just hang in there for one more month.”“One more month,” Xyla murmured, knowing there was no point in resisting.So, she nodded helplessly.Sharon was in a much better mood when she saw how obedient she was.She knew that Xyla and Stanley Batton would be facing a lot of hurdles in the future.She didn’t know whether their family could be torn apart or if she might lose anyone in the family.Hence, she wanted to treat Xyla and Stanley in the best way she could.She wanted to cherish the moments of happiness with her family while they lasted.If she could, she wanted to give Xyla everything in the world.Xyla was now an orphan, and if the Batton family didn’t look after her, no one else would.“Waa… Waah…”Lynette Batton, who was in Wilson Batton’s arms, suddenly started crying right then.Her face turned red, and her legs kept kicking around.There was a sad look in her bright eyes.Seeing this, Wilson felt as if hi

Chapter 2048

Xyla Quest still loved both her children. Her life felt fuller with their presence, making her world feel much warmer.Out of the blue, she was reminded of her late father, affecting her mood slightly.Releasing a long sigh, she gazed at Stanley Batton and the others. “Can I go outside for a bit? I’ll be back very soon.”The Batton family had overseen and held Jeremy Quest’s funeral during Xyla’s postpartum recovery period, so she couldn't attend it despite being his daughter.It was now time for her to pay her respects to her late father ever since she left the hospital.Xyla wanted to wait until her postpartum recovery period was over before personally holding the burial service for him, but Yaksha disagreed with her decision.Doing so would affect his luck in his next life, possibly even cause him to become a wandering spirit.She asked for details, but he wouldn’t explain any further and insisted that they held the burial service on his chosen date.Yaksha also forbade her

Chapter 2049

Xyla Quest took the white chrysanthemums from Stanley Batton before kneeling to place them on the ground to pay her respects to her father, Jeremy Quest.“Dad, I’m here to see you,” she said, moving closer to the tombstone and hugging it tightly. The tombstone was akin to a metaphorical knife that stabbed into her heart, causing tears to trickle down her face without her realizing it, blurring her vision.“Dad, I’m sorry. I came late. How are you doing up there?” Xyla asked.No matter what she said in the past, her father would always reply. But now, it was no longer possible.She would never be able to hear his voice again.Right then, memories of her and her father appeared in her mind like an old film playing before her eyes.Stanley Batton's brows furrowed before kneeling to pay his respects.He then gently ruffled Xyla’s hair and glanced at Jeremy Quest’s photo on the tombstone. “Dad, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of Xyla. I won’t let her suffer a day for the rest of h

Chapter 2050

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
