Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 821

“Get up. I can go there and sit if you do…” Tom Sullivan said.

“Carry me there…” Emily Quest said.

Tom frowned helplessly before carrying Emily over to the chair and sat her down.

After that, he sat down on the other side of the table.

For Tom, a day like this was complete torture.

Sometimes, he wished he could kill Emily for being the b*tch she was.

Next door, Xyla Quest and the others were still having a good time, and they were talking and laughing all the way…

Ron Batton carefully placed a piece of plum-braised pork rib on Xyla’s plate. “Don’t you like plum-braised pork ribs? Have a little more,” he said.

Xyla leaned gently against Stanley Batton as she smiled at Ron. “Thank you, Grandpa…” She said.

“Oh, right. There’s something I need to talk to you about, Stan…” Ron looked at Stanley and said with a serious look on his face.

“What is it?” Stanley held onto Xyla’s shoulder with one hand. His fingertip rubbed against her skin very gently.

“I asked your father to amend his will,” Ron said.

“Amend his will?” A look of surprise appeared in Stanley’s eyes.

“Yeah. It’s been changed such that… If you ever do Xyla wrong, everything you were supposed to inherit from your father after he passes away, including the company and some properties, will all belong to Xyla…” Ron said as he ate.

Xyla was shocked to hear this.

She never thought the Batton family would do something like this for her, and she felt deeply touched at this moment.

“Okay… I’m fine with that,” Stanley said as he continued to hold Xyla. He didn’t show any expression in his eyes.

“Grandpa… You didn’t have to do this. I believe my husband will always be good to me,” Xyla said.

The garden’s floor was layered with colorful rocks of various shapes, and there were exotic-looking rocks and lush plants everywhere.

All the various types of rare flowers and odd plants made the garden seem very lively.

Walking into the garden made Xyla feel as if she had entered a palace drama series.

Xyla walked around the garden. When she saw a swing, she sat on it and gently swayed herself back and forth while playing with her phone…

After Ron finished discussing business with Stanley, he let out a long, serious sigh. Ron then waved at Stanley. “Come and sit over here,” he said.

Stanley got up and sat next to Ron.

Without saying anything, Ron silently checked Stanley’s pulse.

In the walkway, Emily had just finished talking on the phone. She was about to return to her room when she saw Ron checking Stanley’s pulse through the gap in the door.
