Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1963

At this moment, Xyla Quest’s motherly instincts had been activated.

Her gaze softened as she lovingly rubbed her lower belly. She imagined her adorable baby doing flips in her stomach while she ate.

She was able to visualize her baby growing each day in her stomach, as well as her loving husband and father by her side.

Xyla felt like she was the luckiest girl in the world.

After dinner at the Quest family’s house, Xyla and Stanley Batton strolled out of the house, holding each other’s hand.

It was cloudy outside, and snow the size of goose feathers fell from the sky.

The large snowflakes glistened brightly under the lights.

The courtyard was covered in a white blanket, looking clean and picturesque.

“Honey, why don't we take a leisurely walk home right now? We can leave the car behind and then send someone over to get it tomorrow,” Xyla suggested.

“Okay.” Stanley would never turn down any of her requests.

He removed his black coat and then draped it over Xyla’s white coat. “It’s freezing outside. If we’re going to walk, you need to stay warm,”

Stanley was left only with a dark blue woolen turtleneck sweater, looking elegant with its soft fabric.

Xyla felt chilly just by looking at him.

She was about to return his coat when he reached out to wrap it tightly around her. “Be good, Darling, you’re pregnant.”

“But you’ll be cold,” she argued.

The scent of his cologne still lingered on his coat. It was a mildly scented cologne from Tom Ford’s Oud Wood collection. It smelled particularly earthy, exclusive, and befitting a winter day like this.

It was one of her favorite colognes.

“I’m not cold. Let’s go.”
