Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 2324

There were times when Xyla Quest honestly didn't know whether to laugh or cry about Sharon Lindt.

Sharon Lindt would always blame everything on Stanley Batton regardless of why or what happened to make Xyla feel down.

Moreover, Sharon had a knack for sounding very persuasive when hurling accusations at her sons.

It was a pretty impressive talent of hers.

Right then, Sharon had a grave expression on her face. "Why shouldn't I? You're obviously unhappy, so how could I not blame him? Besides, no matter what happens, it's always Stanley's fault whenever you're not in a good mood."

Josh Batton wore a helpless look on his face. "I feel bad for Stanley. Mom, is he even your real son?"

"Whenever he makes Xyla unhappy, I'd wish he wasn't," his mother grumbled.

Josh gently patted his brother on his shoulder. "My heart goes out to you, Bro."

"You don't have to feel sorry for him. I think of you the same way," she reminded him with a deadpanned expression.

His facial expression instantly turned gloomy at her reminder. "Hehe, I know," he said with a chuckle. "While I feel sorry for Stanley, I also feel sorry for myself. Although, some things need not be said."

"I don't see a reason to hold back. It's how things are. As my son, you must always remember what I said, got it?" she asked.

"Okay, got it," he replied.

"Yes, sure," Stanley agreed.

Xyla and Annabeth Cates gave each other helpless glances before smiling at their reactions.

They both felt sorry for their pitiful husbands.

Xyla found herself in a better mood after the entire episode with Sharon. She immediately understood why she had said those things to her sons.

She merely wanted to make her feet better by verbally attacking Stanley, and admittedly, the ploy

t belongs to ens

She began to feel even more sorry for her husband for unwittingly becoming a punching bag at her expense.

She gently patted him on his shoulder as a comforting gesture. "Hang in there, Honey."

"It's fine. I'm used to being a punching bag," he murmured.

She was rendered speechless. It turned out he had seen through the act all along.

She smiled gratefully at Sharon. "Thank you, Mom. I feel much better now."

"That's great, dear. Are you and Annabeth hungry? Would you like to eat anything?" Sharon asked.

"I'm hungry," Josh interjected. "I want lobsters. They are in season right now."

"Sounds good to me," Stanley stated.

Xyla let out an awkward chuckle. "That sounds good, actually. Let's have lobsters then."

Firstly, she could tell that the brothers wanted to eat lobsters.

Secondly, she also craved the same thing.

"Me, too," Annabeth agreed, her mouth already watering at the thought of lobsters.

She enjoyed eating lobsters, too. She hadn't had any in a long while.

Sharon thought the same. "Deal. Let's go to the best restaurant for lobsters in the neighborhood."
