Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2251

Everyone kept talking one after another.

Annabeth Cates nearly forgot all about her pain from delivering.

“All right, Annabeth. You’ve been holding the baby for too long now," Sharon Lindt said. "Give her to me. Also, you shouldn’t be sitting up for so long. It puts some strain on your waist.”

With that, she promptly took Candice Batton from the mother before shooting a glance at Josh Batton. “What are you looking at? Help your wife lie down.”

Hearing her order, Josh obediently helped Annabeth lie down.

Seeing how anxious they seemed, she began to feel like a full-grown baby.

“Mom, aren’t you exaggerating a little? Lots of new mothers can move about right after delivering their babies. Most foreigners do so,” she voiced out helplessly.

“You silly child," Sharon said with a shake of her head. "We’re different from foreigners. Our ancestors have been practicing this for thousands of years. Nothing can go wrong if you follow their teachings.

“Anyway, you have to heed my advice, do you understand? Apart from reducing unnecessary movements during your postpartum recovery, you are also not allowed to play with your phone, or go out when it's windy, understood?” she continued to nag.

Annabeth listened while nodding, deciding to follow her instructions.

“Xyla, I won’t be going to your house for now. I’ll look after Annabeth while she goes through postpartum recovery. We’ll talk about the children’s affairs after that,” Sharon added.

Xyla nodded, agreeing with her decision.

“Josh can look after me. Besides, my parents said they are coming over to look after me, too,” Annabeth spoke up, hoping that her parents-in-law would remain at Xyla’s place to look after Lynette Batton and Leon Batton.

After all, Xyla had two children, while she only had one. It was easier to look after one child.
