Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 783

He had the most filial son-in-law ever, and he could never find a single flaw on him.

After admiring the painting for quite some time, Jeremy Quest carefully rolled it up and placed it back into the case.

Then, he averted his gaze back to Xyla Quest. “Xyla, I wonder who in the family are you most like. You’re brilliant. There’s nothing in the world that can baffle you, is there?”

“Emily is simply incomparable with you.” Once again, Jeremy’s face darkened at the mention of his terrible daughter.

Today, Emily Quest’s behavior had disparaged the whole family. She really was a spoiled brat!

Xyla smiled bashfully. “Oh, Dad, you flatter me. I was just bored when I was having medical treatment in Country Y, so I decided to learn some new skills.”

“That’s great. I can rest reassured that you’re going to do well even if I retire. The company will definitely have greater success under your guidance.” Jeremy had utter confidence in Xyla.

“What happened?” Stanley Batton asked.

Jeremy sighed disappointedly and told Stanley the ins and outs of the selection for the theme park’s design this morning.

Stanley’s eyes widened after listening to the story, attentive and brimming with curiosity. “Grandpa taught you designing?”

Following that statement, he could not help but hold Xyla’s hand tightly and kissed the back of her hand.

A tingling sensation ran over her skin and penetrated her chest as her heart beat faster.

“What are you doing? Dad’s here…” Xyla glowered at him with embarrassment.

“Nah, it doesn’t matter. As long as you’re happy, I’m happy,” said Jeremy.

How he wished he could see this lovely couple every single day.

“How many surprises are you planning to give me? Is there anything else I don’t know about you?” Stanley asked again.

“Well, we’ll see…” Xyla’s smile gradually widened.

Stanley ran his fingers across her hair while studying her face with his doting eyes.
