“Why do the dreams you have tonight sound so similar to the ones you had before? It feels like scattered parts of a television drama…” Stanley Batton said earnestly.It sounded like these stories could be pieced together.However, other minor parts of the stories seemed to be missing somewhere in between.Xyla Quest nodded repeatedly. There was an eager look in her eyes. “I didn’t expect you to think the same way… I also feel that these stories could be connected. With a few added snippets, it would be a complete drama plot…“In the beginning, I probably rescued a nine-tailed fox in my dream. This nine-tailed fox turned out to be a demon. After that, it perhaps fell in love with me because I saved its life…“To be with me, he kidnapped my husband. Moreover, he demanded I marry him. Otherwise, my husband would die…“I didn’t have a choice but to agree to what he asked. After that, there was the scene on the night of our wedding. I might have put some poison in the wine.“That, in

However, Xyla Quest had no way of knowing for sure…Xyla could only leave everything up to time.If she continued to have these dreams in the future, that would signify they weren’t just dreams… After all, up until now, nobody else had been able to watch a drama series in their dreams…In fact, this drama was even updated daily.“Yeah…” Stanley Batton replied calmly. He then gently pulled Xyla into his arms.“If those were memories from my past life, what else do you reckon ties us to the nine-tailed fox?“I’m truly curious…” Xyla had many questions about this.At the same time, she also had a lot of concerns in her heart…Xyla felt that if all those were memories from her past life, the fact that she was seeing them at this point would indeed be ordained by fate.Why did god arrange for all this to happen?Was it a representation that all the enmities in her past life were being tallied?Was the person after her debts carrying out this crazy scheme?There was no way for

Seeing that Xyla Quest was also awake, Stanley Batton immediately ignored his physical discomfort and hugged her tightly. “Did you sleep well last night?” he asked.“Yeah. What about you?” Xyla lied.Stanley lied in return. “Very well… Let’s get out of bed and get ready. Aren’t we going back to your father’s house for breakfast?”***After cleaning up, the two of them felt much more energized…Once Xyla was done putting on make-up and wearing her clothes, she went over to her father’s house next door with Stanley.When Stanley parked his car in the Quest family’s courtyard, the gardener was busy tending to the plants in the small garden within the courtyard…The two of them were greeted by a breeze that brought with it a scent of trees and plants, instantly easing the discomfort they felt.Although Xyla didn’t rest well, she looked like a white peony in full bloom thanks to skincare products and the help of her nude make-up…Xyla’s face was soft and smooth. Coupled with the wh

Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton walked into the Quest family’s dining room after washing their hands.By then, Betty Starmount and Jeremy Quest had already sat on their respective seats.When Betty saw Xyla entering, she pushed a bowl of bird’s nest with rock sugar close to Xyla’s seat. “Xyla… Have some more bird’s nests. It’s good for the babies…”Immediately after that, Betty stood up and placed a bowl of bird’s nest in front of Jeremy. “Darling, here’s yours as well… You ought to eat more of it too. That’ll boost your immune system and keep illnesses away…”Although Jeremy wasn’t keen on eating it, he could see how genuine Betty seemed. Hence, he picked up a spoon and started eating.Betty smiled satisfactorily when she saw this. After that, she placed a bowl of bird’s nest in front of Stanley too. “Stan, you should eat some too…”Stanley shook his head. “No… I don’t like bird’s nests. You guys can have it…”Betty chuckled. “I don’t like eating it either… It’s fine if you don’t

“The part that’s busted is the area beneath the basin…” The maid added.Betty Starmount instantly panicked when she heard this…When she was washing her hands this morning, the platinum pendant around her neck had accidentally come undone…After that, the translucent bead inside fell into the basin hole…Did that thing fall all the way down?What if it accidentally clung to the outer wall or was stuck somewhere? What if Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton discovered something unusual about it. What would Betty do?However, after thinking carefully, Betty felt that the odds were seemingly minute.Very quickly, Betty let out a long sigh of relief…However, just to be safe, Betty still stood up and walked over to the entrance. “I’ll have a look… I’m very good at fixing pipes…” She looked at the maid as she spoke.Betty’s father used to be a plumber…Growing up, she’d personally watched how her father fixed pipes by his side.Hence, fixing pipes happened to be something Betty knew how

Jeremy Quest immediately let out a long sigh of relief when he saw this. He looked approvingly at Betty Starmount. “Well done…” He said.Betty chuckled. “Alright. Hurry up and get outside. I really don’t need help…”After that, Betty subconsciously looked around…Once Betty made sure none of her beads were on the floor or in the cabinet, she quickly reconnected the pipe beneath the basin to the sewage pipe…Betty immediately let out a sigh of relief after she was sure nothing was wrong…Seeing that Betty did sort everything out, Xyla Quest let out a long sigh of relief too.In the next second, Betty’s gaze unintentionally landed somewhere in front of Xyla’s feet…Soon, Betty was able to see a small, translucent bead in front of Xyla’s feet…Xyla, Stanley Batton, and Jeremy Quest were completely unaware of this.Betty suddenly panicked when she saw what was before her.However, to avoid letting them see through her façade, she quickly suppressed her frantic nerves. After that,

“Isn’t this what you often keep in your pendant?” Stanley Batton looked at Betty Starmount and asked.Betty nodded. “Yes…”After that, she quickly stepped forward and grabbed the small bead before placing it in her small pendant.Her heart was beating extremely fast the entire time.Betty was genuinely worried that they might see through her façade.She felt extremely nervous. It was as if something in her would snap at any second.“This bead… It looks unique. What brand does it belong to?” Xyla casually asked as she glanced indifferently at the bead.Betty chuckled. “I bought it online. It’s a non-mainstream brand. Do you like it? I could buy it for you if you like it…”“I don’t wear these things.” Xyla shook her head.When Betty saw that Xyla and Stanley hadn’t discovered anything unusual, she secretly sighed in relief…“Oh, right. Our company will be shooting our film soon. There are some decent scripts. I’ll get Georgie to send them to you via email… You can pick one that

Josh Batton had a pure look in his eyes. He also had a friendly smile.His smile was pure, clean, gentle, and full of kindness. He seemed just like a boy-next-door kind of person.“After taking part in Chanel’s perfume exhibition in City L later, we’ll still have to rush over to City L’s television station for an interview with Colbie Keynes Talk Show…“You’ll still be very exhausted today. That’s why you should try to get some sleep on the plane later if possible…” Annabeth Cates carefully briefed Josh on his itinerary as she looked at his handsome face…“Bleurgh…” After finishing her sentence, Annabeth suddenly started retching.At this moment, she felt extremely nauseous.Josh immediately opened his eyes when he heard the noise. “What’s wrong?” he asked nervously as he looked at Annabeth.Annabeth covered her mouth and shook her head. “Urgh… I don’t know. I probably ate too much spicy food two days ago. It’s messing up my stomach… I’ve been retching frequently over the past t
