Dragon Group had also expanded rapidly to become an unsurpassable international company. Its business grew so significantly that it involved nearly every industry under the sun.In addition to that, the business obtained commendable results in every single industry involved.Dragon Group and Quest Group were not only the top two companies in the world, but they surpassed other companies by a wide margin, maintaining a considerable gap between them and the third-ranked organization below them. Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton were hailed as the golden couple.Time had passed in a blink of an eye. Their children were now aged three and old enough to attend kindergarten.One night before bedtime, Xyla was in the middle of her nightly skincare routine while watching her husband recite ancient poems to their children on the floor. “I signed them up for Phaeton Kindergarten,” she told him.Stanley nodded without hesitation. “Okay, that's good.”Phaeton Kindergarten was considered the to
But now, Lynette Batton and Leon Batton were already old enough for kindergarten.“Time does fly,” Xyla Quest sighed.Stanley Batton tilted his head while gazing tenderly at his wife and kids. “Yeah, it does.”“You two have to be good at kindergarten, okay?” she told them as she gently ruffled their hair. “Don’t say too much about our family, especially not who your parents are, understood?“It's for your safety,” she added.The twins instantly nodded. They were clever and obedient despite their tender age. They would act as their mother had instructed.Fortunately, they had never rebelled against her and always took anything she said to heart.Their obedience made her heart melt once again. “You’re such good kids.”Stanley looked at them tenderly. “Daddy and Mommy are only doing this for your good. You’ll understand once you are older.”Lynette blinked. “I understand it's for our protection. We’ll do whatever you tell us to, Daddy and Mommy, knowing you only have our best i
Every time Lynette Batton made an unreasonable request, Leon Batton would be annoyed and cold to her.But then, he would give in instantly whenever she made a sad face because he adored his little sister way too much.“Keep an eye on your little sister, Leon. She can only have three mouthfuls,” Xyla Quest told her son.That was the limit she had set because Lynette’s stomach was relatively weaker.Leon nodded before addressing his sister. “Let’s go. Come with me.”His tone sounded firm and irrefutable, prompting Lynette to follow behind him to the door. “When you’re done with dessert, bring your sister upstairs with you and get ready for bed, all right?”“Got it,” he answered without turning his head and led Lynette away.Their nannies left one after another as the kids grew up, so Xyla had hired four new nannies.Apart from taking care of the children’s food and daily activities, they were also responsible for cooking and cleaning the house.Xyla and Stanley had gotten much
After Lynette Batton fell asleep, Leon Baton carefully placed her head on her pillow. Then, he picked up another one for himself and settled down next to his sister.It was peaceful and quiet outside the window.The warm summer night had a sky full of stars accompanied by the sound of singing cicadas. Fireflies danced in clusters now and then. It was a wonderful sight to behold.The twins slept soundly in their warm and luxurious room.Everything seemed so serene.Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton checked in on them later that evening and witnessed this scene.They couldn’t help but smile in contentment as they sat by their bed to watch them for a while.They felt blessed to have such amazing kids who seldom caused trouble or worried them needlessly.***Leon and Lynette were accepted into the prestigious Phaeton Kindergarten soon after Xyla signed them up.The children also had brand-new identities as a cover story to protect their privacy. Their parents were supposed to be th
Leon Batton, especially, took great care of his little sister, Lynette Batton.He practically acted like a protective father in the classroom and didn't let anything happen to her.Lynette was the kind of person who could cry easily, but his presence there ensured that she was on her best behavior the entire time. Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton knew that their son gave her a sense of security.They jumped up happily when the kids entered the house and walked toward them eagerly.They had missed them, especially today, even though Xyla and Stanley were frequently away at work during the day,Perhaps, it was because of their first day at kindergarten.At the door, Xyla and Stanley picked up Lynette and Leon respectively, making them smile.They looked very adorable in their very first set of uniforms.Their uniforms looked good. Leon wore a white shirt with a black tie and vest, while Lynette had on a white shirt with a black tie and skirt. She also wore a fitting vest with whit
If Lynette Batton was too young to understand, then was Leon Batton old enough, considering they were both twins?He was born only slightly earlier than his little sister.Xyla Quest chuckled with a helpless gaze at her son. “You’re speaking as if you’re much older.”“I may not be a lot older, I’m still her older brother. I have to be the mature one,” Leon replied.Stanley Batton nodded before looking at his daughter. “From now on, you mustn’t let anyone kiss you other than Daddy, Mommy, Leon, our close friends, and relatives, understood?“Especially not boys,” he hastily added with a stern expression.Lynette didn’t understand why her father said that, but she still nodded obediently.“Okay, I’ll remember that,” she agreed before tugging at her brother's hand. “Leon, don’t be angry. I understand now.”“Silly girl. You need to learn how to protect yourself sometimes,” he advised her. His words made him sound even more mature, not like that was surprising to his parents. She
Xyla Quest had no regrets other than not being able to repay her parents for bringing her up.She enjoyed days like these though she'd found herself wishing that her parents were around to be a part of her happy life.She instantly hugged Stanley Batton as she began to feel emotional at the thought.“Honey, I have a sudden craving for the steamed egg and shrimp dish you've cooked before,” she told him.“Okay, I’ll cook that dish for you right away,” he replied instantly before heading into the kitchen.Xyla settled down on the couch and began munching on snacks that her husband had bought for the kids.However, neither Lynette Batton nor Leon Batton was fond of them, so she ended up the one who ate them the most often.***Time went by so quickly that it stopped for no one.In the blink of an eye, Lynette and Leon were now six.They seemed much more mature than before and even more obedient.The children were growing well.Likewise, Xyla and Stanley’s companies also continu
Meanwhile, Lynette Batton kept her head down as she wept in the office of Phaeton Kindergarten’s principal.Leon Batton stood in front of her protectively while a group of adults surrounded them. The principal, three teachers, both parents of the boy in question, and the royal family's bodyguards were in the office.There were glaring at the twins with cold, harsh looks.Meanwhile, the arrogant boy with whom they had a conflict sat on a nearby chair as he glowered at Leon defiantly.Soon, their nanny, Shanice, walked in and hastily pulled the twins behind her in a protective stance.“Hey kids, aren’t you going to apologize? Do you want to be kicked out?" the boy's father sneered menacingly before issuing more threats.“Mark my words. If you don’t apologize, not only will I see to it that you're both kicked out, but your parents will also be in big trouble.“I won’t let anyone in your family off the hook,” he yelled as he pointed his forefinger at them.Leon returned his angry
