Stanley Batton drove his own black Bugatti Veyron and sent Xyla Quest to the Quest family’s house next door.When the two of them walked through the door, Betty Starmount was standing by the dining room as she gave instructions to the maids. “Be careful… Those are Xyla’s favorite dishes. Don’t spill anything… Those are also Xyla’s favorites… Remember to cover them up after placing them on the dining table. They won’t be nice after getting cold…”Jeremy Quest sat silently on the couch as he drank his tea and lovingly observed Betty as she prepared frantically for his daughter…Xyla found this scene somewhat harmonious…When Betty saw Xyla walking in, she immediately approached Xyla. “Xyla… Stan, you’re here… You’re just in time for breakfast… Get your hands washed, and let’s eat breakfast together…”Xyla nodded. After that, she looked at Jeremy, who was far away. “Dad, we’re here… We’ll wash our hands first.”Jeremy and Stanley nodded at each other. After that, Jeremy smiled at Xy

“Honey, is the bird’s nest I made delicious?” Betty Starmount immediately held Jeremy Quest’s hand seductively and asked after seeing that Jeremy had emptied the bowl of bird’s nest.Jeremy slowly put down the empty bowl in his hand. “Yeah, it’s delicious… But I’m getting sick of eating the same thing that you make for me every day…”When Betty heard this, her tone became even softer. “Honey, this stuff is good for your health… You have to eat it even if you’re sick of it…”“I don’t feel it’s been that good for me at all. Ever since I started eating bird’s nest every single day, I haven’t been able to sleep well…” Jeremy said.“How could it be caused by bird’s nest? Bird’s nest helps calm you down…” Betty said.With that, Betty smiled at Jeremy. “Honey, can we take bird’s nest properly?”Jeremy slowly shifted his gaze to Betty’s face and looked into her eyes.The moment their eyes met, Jeremy suddenly felt strong dizziness…Immediately after that, he felt an urge to do as Betty

“It’s all going well… I’ll soon be able to inflict the worst kind of pain imaginable unto Xyla before killing her, just like you told me to…” Betty Starmount said.“Betty, don’t play tricks on me. Don’t forget what you’ve pledged to me,” the man warned coldly.When Betty heard this, she immediately nodded respectfully. “Yes, I understand…” She said with a nervous look on her face.The man sneered without saying anything. Instead, he retrieved a cylindrical glass tube from his pocket that was full of tiny, transparent beads before tossing it onto the bed. “Make sure Jeremy and Xyla’s doses aren’t cut off…”“Yes… Master, I have a question. I can’t quite understand something,” Betty said.“Speak…”“You clearly told me in the beginning that I should find a way to kill Xyla directly. Why did you change your mind after that? Why did you replace the drug with something that takes longer…? Also, why must you make Xyla suffer in the worst ways imaginable before she dies?“Isn’t it much e

You can come whenever you want…” Yaksha replied.“In that case, I’ll come over in three days in the afternoon. Does that work for you?” Xyla asked.Yaksha wouldn’t contact her if there weren’t something important.Hence, Xyla knew that this was probably a critical matter…“Deal…” Yaksha immediately hung up after that.After working until five o’clock in the afternoon, Xyla quickly walked into her private bathroom. She took a quick bath and washed her face…After that, Xyla changed into a white blouse that she kept in the office…She matched it with a long, pink tuxedo coat on the outside…Underneath the coat, she wore a pair of short, black pants.
