Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1549

Right then, Jeremy Quest was unable to perceive Xyla Quest’s dissatisfaction at all.

“Yeah,” Xyla said simply.

“We really are fated to be together…” Jeremy smiled and looked at Betty Starmount.

Betty nodded, but she didn’t speak.

“Xyla… Are you going to stay for lunch today? We’ve prepared something nice for lunch.” Betty really adhered to what Jeremy had said and addressed Xyla by her first name…

Suddenly, Xyla found herself unable to get used to that.

“Sure…” Xyla smiled.

“I’ll go and check on a dish in the kitchen. I have especially made it for you guys… It should be done soon.”

With that, Betty quickly stood up and walked into the kitchen.

After Betty left, Jeremy turned around and looked at her from behind.

At this moment, Jeremy’s smile widened even further. “Betty is a wonderful lady… She doesn’t have a bad temper, unlike others born after the year 2000. She really is the ideal type for a wife.

“Betty knows that you like to eat braised pork. That’s why she has specifically made it for you… She’s very good at making it. It tastes even better than that made by your aunt who passed away…” Jeremy couldn’t stop praising Betty.

“Dad… To be honest, I’m not against you finding your significant other…” Xyla said with a smile.

“Yeah, I know.” Jeremy was still smiling from ear to ear.

“But can you not be with someone like Betty who’s even younger than me?” Xyla was very straightforward. She didn’t beat around the bush.

When Jeremy heard this, he didn’t get angry. “What’s the reason?” he asked Xyla patiently instead.

“She’s too young. Why do you think she’s with you? Is it because of love?” Xyla asked.

“I know all these things…” Jeremy said.
