Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2189

"He made time to be with me because he feels that we haven't spent much time together recently.

"He set aside a lot of his important tasks at the company to do that," Xyla Quest said with a helpless expression on her face.

Although she felt helpless as she spoke, she also felt absurdly happy.

The journalist couldn't help feeling envious when she heard this. "I see. Mr. Batton is indeed well-known for how much he adores his wife. Ms. Quest, you must be very happy."

Xyla chuckled. "Yeah, I am. I have to thank God for giving me such a wonderful husband."

"You're also wonderful yourself. That's why you are blessed with a good husband," the other woman said.

"Thank you."

"From what I know, Quest Group's stock price has increased rapidly since you took over. You've even gotten involved in many industries you never had in the past. Moreover, they've achieved excellent results. "They say you're an investment genius. What do you have to say about this?" the journalist added.

"I don't think I am. I'm just better at grabbing opportunities when they come than others," Xyla said calmly.

"You're the woman I admire the most."

"Thank you," she smiled.

"I heard you've given birth to a girl and a boy. I saw their pictures from Josh Batton's Weibo account," the woman said. "They truly are adorable. Can you tell us about your experience as a mother?" Xyla felt dumbfounded at the question as HC Magazine was a financial magazine, and she was asking questions that weren't related to her profession.

Still, she decided to answer politely, "Since becoming a mother, I understand the challenges of raising children. Isn't there an expression that people understood their parents better after becoming parents themselves?"

Thoughts of her father, Jeremy Quest, came unbidden in her mind. At that moment, she felt like something had stabbed her in her heart.

And d*mn, did it hurt.

However, she chose to bury her emotions to ensure the interview went on smoothly and not waste anyone's time.

She tried to control her emotions by secretly pinching her own finger to inflict pain on herself.

"Between you and your husband, I wonder who spends more time with the kids," the woman said next.

"I guess we spend almost an equal

amount of time with them. The kids are fine without us. We just spend some time playing with them after work. Stanley's parents and the nannies at home take wonderful care of them mostly," Xyla said.

The journalist couldn't resist sighing. It was great to be rich.

Coming from a wealthy background, Xyla didn't have to worry about the day-to-day chores and could even do whatever she wanted as if she had never given birth.

"I see. Has your life with Mr. Batton changed after having children?" she asked.

"I guess I feel much happier than

before," Xyla said, pinning her with a

pointed look. "Hey, perhaps we

should focus on my career. I doubt

people would be interested in gossip

like this."

Nodding somewhat reluctantly, the woman wondered how anyone would not be interested in Xyla's private life with her husband. Other than A-list celebrities, Xyla and Stanley Batton were the most popular couple on the internet.

Everyone wished they could examine their life under a microscope.

However, since Xyla had already made a comment, she did as she suggested and began asking questions about her company. The interview lasted for an hour as they chatted the entire time.

Once it ended, Freda sent the interview crew off while Xyla returned to her own office.

Right then, Stanley was lying on the couch as he stared at his phone, his long legs stacked naturally on the back of the couch. It was a wonderful view.
