Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 813

As the saying went, many hands make light work. The Batton family made a table full of food in a blink of an eye. There were about eighteen dishes.

When all the food was served, Wilson Batton and Ron Batton arrived at the doorstep. The big family had a whale of a time at dinner.

After the meal, Wilson, Josh Batton, and Stanley Batton gathered around the coffee table to play chess.

Ron watched them from the side.

On the other hand, Xyla Quest, Sharon Lindt, and Catherine Batton played Honor of Kings excitedly.

When all the family members met, their happiness knew no bounds.

Xyla’s performance in the game was as impressive as usual.

Sharon and Catherine could not stop praising her.

Under Xyla's guidance, the three of them only took thirteen minutes to win the game.

Sharon’s eyes brimmed with admiration and adoration when she saw the word ‘victory’ across her phone screen. “You’re awesome, Xyla! How did you dodge the attacks so smoothly? If I had half of your talents, I could’ve broken my losing streak long ago.”

Catherine gave Xyla a thumbs up. “Exactly, Sister-in-law. Is there anything that you can’t do? You’re good at everything. You’re my role model!”

Xyla scratched her head bashfully. “Nah, you guys are exaggerating. In fact, movement in games can be improved through practice.”

“Talent matters too. Not everyone can do it as easily as you do.” Sharon disagreed with her.

“Sigh… We’re all human, aren’t we? Why is my sister-in-law so talented while I’m not?” Catherine complained.

Xyla giggled. She put her left hand around Sharon’s shoulder, then her right hand around Catherine’s. “Stop it. Don’t embarrass me. Speaking of which, Catherine, you’re leaving tomorrow, right?”

Catherine nodded helplessly. “Yeah. I’ve been away from school for too long. They’re mad. I’ll be kicked out of school if I don’t go back now.”

Sharon rolled her eyes at Catherine. “Don’t you dare to come back without my permission next time. You’re only allowed to come back on school holidays.”

Catherine nodded.

Sharon’s serious expression faded away in the very next second. She pulled Catherine into her arms and gently ran her fingers through her hair. “Darling, please take good care of yourself there, alright?”

Catherine nodded once more.
