Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2203

Smiling warmly, Xyla Quest approached Sharon Lindt from behind to hug her. "Good morning, Mom. It smells wonderful in here. Did you actually bake bread?"

"Yes. You mentioned that you like freshly baked bread, so I baked some for you. You can have a few during breakfast later and bring a few more with you to the office. You can eat them when you're hungry," Sharon told her.

She instantly felt warm in her heart hearing that. Although Sharon wasn't her birth mother, it felt like she was.

Perhaps her own mother wouldn't even treat her as well as she did.

"All right, Mom. You're so good to me, just like a birth mother would treat her own daughter."

Frankly, she had never lacked anything since she was a child except for one thing... a mother's love.

Her birth mother died when she was still a child, so she never got to experience motherly love.

She was able to experience that with Sharon.

Her life was complete now that a missing piece of her childhood had been filled.

"Silly child. I am your mother," Sharon chuckled. "Well, I'm your mother-in-law, but it's the same thing."

She nodded. "Yeah, you're even closer to me than my biological mother."

The older woman seemed pleased to hear this. "All right, you shouldn't be in here. Go outside and play with your kids."

"I'd rather not. I want to help you out in the kitchen. I don't feel right sitting around all day. I ought to help out in some way, or I'll lose the ability to look after myself," Xyla told her.

"You wouldn't want others to say that your daughter-in-law is lazy and doesn't do anything, would you?" she added.

Sharon shrugged nonchalantly at this. "I don't care what other people say. My daughter-in-law can be lazy or hard-working, and that's fine because you haven't taken anything from those people.

"If anyone says those things about you, I'll willingly tell them that I insisted. It has nothing to do with those people anyway," she added.

Xyla felt even warmer in her heart then. She would never trade Sharon for anything in the world.

"Mom, I'll take good care of you and Dad when you get old," she vowed.

"Yes, I believe you would," Sharon nodded. "But you won't have to do anything for us. After all, we can hire helpers. I don't want you to work too hard taking care of us."

"No, I want to look after you both," she insisted. It was her only way of repaying their love and care.

Sharon was extremely pleased and found herself growing even more fond of her son's wife for her gratefulness.

She loved Xyla so much that she wanted to give her the entire world.

"All right, let's not talk about these things. It's something that will happen only in the distant future Right now, my dear, you should go out and spend time with my grandchildren," she ordered firmly.

"Let me help you with the salad," Xyla offered, attempting to help out again.

She genuinely felt regretful for making Sharon so exhausted every day.

"It's fine. You don't know how to do it right," Sharon objected. "I do."

"No, you don't," Sharon stated plainly, rendering her speechless.

"In that case, let me help you clean the cutler, then," she suggested.

"No, you don't know how to do that either," Sharon said.

"But I do."

"You these

Sharon insisted again,

"Fine. Oh, right. Has Stanley already gone out?"
