Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2147

Speaking of the devil! Annabeth Cates’ mother was calling.

Peggy Howards was only calling to chat with her daughter without any particular reason except to express how much she missed her.

As they chatted, Annabeth realized she hadn’t been home for a long time, so she promised her mother that she would go home to see her parents with Josh Batton next week.

Peggy agreed with her decision.

After chatting for a long while, they finally hung up, prompting Sharon Lindt to ask, “Are you going home next week?”

Annabeth nodded.

Hearing that, Sharon immediately issued instructions to her son. “Josh, arrange for a private flight for the visit, okay?”

Josh immediately nodded. “Of course.”

“Let me know when you two are departing. I will prepare some gifts for Annabeth’s parents,” Sharon said thoughtfully.

Annabeth immediately shook her head when she heard this. “It’s fine. I’ll bring something for my parents.”

“Those are from you," Sharon pointed out seriously. "I'll have my own gifts for them. You have to bring them home so that your parents know I have them on my mind.”

“They’d know even if you didn’t give them anything,” Annabeth countered.

She wasn’t the only one who felt grateful to the Batton family because even her parents felt the same way.

“I've already decided. Josh, let me know when the time comes,” Sharon insisted.

Josh nodded again.

“Josh, bring some good food for them no matter how expensive. Also, spend more time with them when you’re there, okay?” Wilson Batton added.
