Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1637

Although Annabeth Cates knew that she would soon meet Josh Batton’s parents, she didn’t think it would happen this suddenly and this soon.

She still felt nervous.

Would Josh’s mother, Sharon Lindt, like her?

Would it unfold like how it does in idol dramas?

For example, would Sharon bribe her with a lot of money to leave Josh?

Annabeth hoped not.

The fact that Sharon bought clothes for Annabeth should mean that she didn’t dislike Annabeth.

Right then, Annabeth suddenly had a lot of questions on her mind.

She unintentionally became tense.

When Josh saw her like this, he naturally knew what she was thinking.

Josh naturally embraced her. “Alright, don’t worry. My mother won’t eat you. She knows you’re pregnant, and she couldn’t be happier about it…”

“Really?” Annabeth was pleasantly surprised.

“Yeah… Haven’t I told you about my mother? She’s a child at heart. She’s very approachable, and she doesn’t care who her children marry,” Josh said.

“No, I should say that she doesn’t care about who marries whom except for my brother, Stanley…” Josh added.

“Stanley?” Annabeth asked.

“Yeah. But my brother’s condition is unique… In the past, he had a grave health issue that had something to do with his blood. Coincidentally, his blood type is unique and rare. There aren’t many people in the world who share the same blood type…

“For his illness, he needed a regular blood transfusion. Back then, my grandfather went through a lot of trouble to find a blood donor to provide him with a constant blood supply. Finally, however, just to be safe, my grandfather felt that we needed someone else as a backup option…

“That’s why they found my sister-in-law, Xyla Quest. After that, they forced the two of them to get married. That’s how they kept my sister-in-law by my brother’s side…” Josh explained carefully.
