Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2141

“Yeah, I’m tired of repeating myself. I’m sure you feel the same way. I’ve bought a lot of ingredients you like, so I’ll be cooking your favorite dishes tonight,” Sharon Lindt said.

“It’s fine. Mom, you and Dad must be tired from looking after the children. Let Josh do it,” Annabeth Cates urged.

She knew very well how tired Sharon and Wilson Batton must’ve been lately.

She didn’t want the two of them to do anything more for her.

But her mother-in-law shook her head instantly. “I honestly don’t feel tired at all. The nannies are always around, so all I do is play with the children.

“Besides, I won’t neglect you even if I’m tired. I’ve got to be fair,” she added.

Annabeth chuckled. “I’ve never thought you were unfair, Mom. Besides, I’m not calculative about these things.”

“That’s what you think, but it’s up to me what I want to do. I don’t want you to be unhappy in our family at all, do you understand?” Sharon asked.

Annabeth nodded. “Okay, I get it. Thank you, Mom. However, let Josh sort out dinner tonight so you can stay here and chat with me.”

“Stop nagging or I’ll get upset,” Sharon voiced half-jokingly.

Annabeth immediately kept quiet and smiled.

“I’ll rest for a while before I head into the kitchen. By the way, have you felt any discomfort lately?” Sharon asked.

“I’ve been very well these days. The chills and exhaustion I experienced in the early stages are all gone. I feel perfectly healthy. It’s like I’m not even pregnant,” Annabeth answered truthfully.

“Okay, that’s good to hear. Keep looking after yourself,” the elder woman said in satisfaction.

“What about you and Dad? Have you two been all right?”

“We’re still the same. We’re very well, so don’t worry about us,” Wilson answered.
