“Oh, right. Give her a VIP ward. It’ll be more comfortable for her,” Xyla Quest said.“Sure… You really are nice to your subordinates…” Stephan Harris remarked.There weren’t many kind and beautiful ladies like Xyla anymore…“As I should be. It’s not easy for them to work out here. Since they work in our house, they’re part of the family too… Naturally, I need to be nice to them,” Xyla said.“How wonderful…” Stephen praised.Approximately half an hour later, the injured maid was brought out.The wound on her right eye had already been tended to.There was a thick layer of white bandage over it.She was still unconscious.There was an anti-inflammatory drip attached to the back of her hand.Xyla and Stanley Batton watched the medical staff bring her to the ward.After that, Xyla requested for two nurses to look after the maid around the clock.Only then did Xyla and Stanley leave the hospital together.When they walked out of the building, the sky was gloomy, and it was sno

Right then, Jeremy Quest and Betty Starmount were sitting together and watching the television.There was a huge plate of fruits in front of them, but neither touched any of it.When Betty saw Xyla Quest walking in, she quickly approached Xyla. “How did it go?” Betty asked worriedly.“She’s fine now. The doctor said she’ll just have to be observed and receive treatment for a while. After that, she’ll be able to recover,” Xyla said.“Her eyeball was scratched… It’s pretty bad,” Xyla added.Betty felt chills down her spine when she heard this. “Oh my god… That’s truly scary,” she said.Although she appeared terrified, she was very calm on the inside.She didn’t think this was a big deal at all.The woman was only a maid. So, what if she died?“How did she get scratched?” Jeremy also walked up to Xyla. He naturally wrapped his arm around Betty’s waist…“We don’t know what it is. There’s fur beneath her eye. I’ll go to an expert to get it verified…” Xyla said.“Okay… I’ve looked

When Xyla Quest heard the doorbell ringing, she immediately became tense.This was because of what happened to the maid earlier.When she heard the doorbell ringing, she felt a little afraid…She was afraid that somebody else might have gotten injured.Xyla immediately took a deep breath. After that, she walked over to the door and looked through the door viewer…She could see a bodyguard standing in front of the door with a serious expression on his face.Thankfully, his face was unharmed.Xyla instantly let out a long sigh. She then opened the door…“Miss Xyla, I found this while I was patrolling in the garden earlier…”The bodyguard carefully placed a large ball of white fur in Xyla’s hand…It was the size of a whole cotton ball.The fur looked exactly like the one Stephen gave her previously.The white ball of fur was very soft and fluffy. Under the lights, it shone gorgeously.Xyla couldn’t quite tell what kind of fur it was when there were only a few of them.Now th

Once everything was wrapped up, Xyla Quest walked into the bathroom and washed her hands again.Finally, she returned to the dining room.In the dining room, Stanley Batton, Jeremy Quest, and Betty Starmount were enjoying the hot pot.There were many cooked fish slices and peeled prawns on Xyla’s plate.Her dipping sauce had also been prepared.It was her favorite flavor.Xyla knew that Stanley Batton had done all this.Suddenly, she felt warmth spread in her heart.Xyla slowly sat next to Stanley. She picked up a slice of fish with her fork, dipped it in the sauce, and carefully took a bite.The fish slice tasted fresh and juicy.Flavors exploded in her mouth after she took a bite.Xyla liked it a lot.After eating the fish slice, Xyla began to speak. “A bodyguard discovered a huge ball of white animal fur outside earlier… It feels like fox fur…”“Where is it? Fox fur? How is that possible? Why would there be a fox within the compound?” Jeremy seemed shocked.Xyla shook

In the dream, Xyla Quest wore a traditional white dress as she stood in the middle of a foggy forest…The trees towered over her, and she could barely see past the dense branches…The entire world seemed dark and eerie.Xyla couldn’t even tell if it was day or night…Cold breezes caused her body to tremble.Xyla felt terrified in the dream.She had no clue why she was in a place like this.Hence, she began looking around frantically while she tried to find a way out.Right then, a golden light flashed by.A white nine-tailed fox descended from the sky. It landed right in front of her.In the next second, the nine-tailed fox opened its mouth and pounced toward her.It scratched one of her eyes out.“Ahh…”The intense pain made Xyla feel even more terrified.She didn’t even realize she had screamed out loud…The strong sense of fear instantly woke her.When Xyla opened her eyes, everything was pitch black around her.She was drenched in sweat.Her heart was also beating

“No. I shouldn’t be calling it a nine-tailed fox. It should be called a nine-tailed demon fox… Because that thing is a demon in my dream,” Xyla Quest said.Ever since Yaksha told her and Stanley Batton that they had debts from their past lives…Xyla already knew that their creditor would sooner or later show up and demand their repayment somehow.Xyla simply didn’t expect it to be this soon…For some reason, Xyla felt that the demon was omnipotent…What should she do?Xyla thought that she needed to go to Yaksha for a chat after the experts verified the fur…“Alright. Let’s not think too much for now… It might only be a dream, right?” Stanley Batton said.To be honest, Stanley agreed with what Xyla was thinking.However, before they could be certain, he didn’t want Xyla to worry too much.What if…What if it wasn’t true?Xyla took a deep breath and tried very hard to close her eyes. “Yeah, I hope so… Honey, I’m really curious what happened among the three of us in our past

With the arrival of dusk, the sun was setting, and it was no longer as hot as during the day…The cold breezes by the ocean were very soothing.It felt almost like a northern city during springtime in Atlantis.Annabeth Cates was wearing a white bikini and a short skirt. Her slim physique was fully visible…As she had been bored at home recently, she invited her yoga teacher home to help her with pregnancy yoga.For this reason, her physique was even better than before.Her back also seemed much straighter.The curves on her body looked even better.Since Annabeth was still in the early stages of pregnancy, it wasn’t obvious yet. Hence, nobody could tell she was pregnant.Annabeth was very pleased with how she looked right now.Josh Batton wore a white shirt and a pair of white pants. Although he didn’t have any makeup on, he still looked good.To avoid being recognized by others, they both wore sunglasses, caps, and masks.Right then, the beach was particularly crowded.P

When Annabeth Cates and Josh Batton walked past two ladies from Country Z, they suddenly heard them screaming…They immediately felt nervous.Had they been recognized?Annabeth felt dubious…Waist?Josh was all covered up. How could they see his waist?Annabeth discreetly looked in the direction where the sound came from…Josh did the same.They saw the two girls sitting on the ground as they looked and pointed at their phones. “Ahh… Josh is so handsome…”Josh and Annabeth were speechless.The two of them sighed in relief.They had misunderstood the situation.Those ladies were only looking at Josh’s videos or pictures.“I think Josh got married too soon. He’s still so young.”“Exactly… It’s way too early for Josh. I was so shocked when he announced it.”“Who wouldn’t be? Did you know? I was completely dumbfounded… I loved this man so deeply.”“Me too, me too. I cried the entire night. Sigh… I unfollowed him out of anger, but I couldn’t even stay away for a day. The mom
