Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1452

“Why?” A look of curiosity appeared in Stanley Batton’s eyes.

“Your family has been so nice to me. I feel that it’s only right for the children to take after your family’s surname…” Xyla Quest said seriously.

“To be honest, we don’t care about these things…” Stanley said.

“But I do…” Xyla said.

With that, Xyla looked at Stanley earnestly. “Stanley, will you listen to me? Otherwise, I’m going to ignore you…”

The Batton family had been so nice to her. It’d be unjustifiable for her children not to take after the Batton family’s surname.

Seeing how Xyla had become serious, Stanley helplessly nodded. “Alright… Alright… As you wish…”

Xyla’s facial expression immediately became gentle. “That’s more like it…”

Stanley affectionately ruffled her hair. “Do you feel better now? Is there anything bugging you?”

“I’m fine…” Xyla shook her head.

“That’s great…” Stanley said.

Right then, Wilson Batton walked out of the kitchen.

Wilson was wearing a white apron. There were still beads of sweat on his hands.

While wiping his hands gently on the apron to get rid of the sweat, Wilson walked over to Xyla and Stanley. “What are you two talking about?”

“We’re talking about whose surname the children will take,” Stanley said.

When Wilson heard this, he instantly smiled kindly. “What kind of question is this? Does it even make a difference?”

“No… I want the children to have Batton as their surname…” Xyla said.

Wilson chuckled. “Anything goes… Even if their surname is Quest, I won’t mind. Regardless of whose surname they take after, they’re still my grandson and granddaughter…”

With that, Wilson sat next to Xyla. “Your mother and Catherine are busy cooking in the kitchen. There’s not much I can help with. So I’ll just chat with you guys.”

Xyla nodded and searched for a topic to talk about. “Dad, would you prefer two boys or two girls?”
