“That means I love you,” Stanley Batton declared, wearing a wary expression on his face. He had changed the topic hastily.“I was joking," Xyla Quest laughed. "Look at how nervous you are.”“How can I not be nervous when your emotions are involved?”She couldn’t resist resting her head against his shoulder. “Okay, I have to get back to work. Do whatever you want, all right?”“I’ve been spending so much time here with you, so shouldn’t you reward me? Hmm?” he asked.She took one look at his perfect face and smiled. “What do you have in mind, huh?”Turning fully to look at her, Stanley pressed his nose against hers. “What do you think?”His tone had a seductive effect on Xyla, instantly making her heart pound rapidly.She pressed a tender kiss on his lips before quickly standing up, hastening her footsteps away to avoid his wandering hands again. “Is that sufficient? I’m going back to work.”Stanley touched his lips while he gazed at her from behind. After that, he checked on We

“It’s fine," Xyla Quest insisted. "I can walk on my own. I’m not that helpless.”However, Stanley Batton ignored her and proceeded to carry her into the elevator to get to the first floor.At that hour, the lobby was busy as some of the employees working overtime were also rushing to leave.Everyone instantly focused their gazes on the couple as they stepped out, making Xyla feel a little embarrassed with so many pairs of eyes on her. Suddenly, these people all felt envious of them both.“Hello, Ms. Quest.”“Hello, Mr. Batton.”Employees began to greet them as they passed, prompting her to nod awkwardly while Stanley kept a neutral expression on his face.“Put me down. Many people are watching,” she muttered, struggling to set herself free.She felt even more mortified when she noticed people taking pictures of them.However, it didn’t seem like her husband intended to put her down. Instead, he continued to walk outside.“Listen to me,” she began to protest again.“Be a go

When Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton arrived home, all they could hear was the sound of children laughing, their voices mellow and pleasant.Suddenly, all the exhaustion felt by them faded away as their hearts melted at that moment. After quickly changing their shoes, they walked into the living room to see the twins kicking their feet and laughing joyfully on the playmat.Meanwhile, Wilson Batton, Sharon Lindt, and the nannies kept them entertained with various toys and playful expressions.The children also seemed to be playing along, judging by their beaming smiles and the pure looks in their eyes. Their parents subconsciously began smiling at the sight.“Xyla, you’re home,” Sharon stated while looking at her daughter-in-law.Wilson instantly looked up when he heard this, his attention on her as well. “Did you have a long day at work?”They both seemed to only address their questions to Xyla as she held Stanley’s hand before stepping onto the playmat. “Hmm, it wasn’t too ba

Xyla Quest immediately turned her attention to Sharon Lindt and Wilson Batton. “To be honest, Stanley doesn’t have it easy either.”She wished they could be more concerned about Stanley Batton too.“Isn’t it only right for men to work hard? Otherwise, who would take care of the family? How else would we have such a wonderful daughter-in-law?” Sharon asked.“That’s right. I agree,” Wilson spoke up.She didn’t know how to respond to that.“Honey, you should drink the chicken soup while it's warm. I’ll get my own,” Stanley urged.After that, he handed Lynette Batton over to his father before heading into the kitchen.Right then, his mother picked up the bowl of chicken soup and began carefully feeding Xyla as if she was taking care of a baby.Xyla felt uneasy about it as her parents-in-law already had to take care of the children, and cook for the family.She didn’t want to have things done for her all the time.Setting Lynette down, she reached for the bowl of chicken soup inst

Right then, Leon Batton started laughing as he looked at Xyla Quest, warming her heart.She held him gently in her arms and smiled. “Leon, what are you laughing at? Hmm?”He continued to laugh while looking at her.He was beaming.Seeing Leon smile like this put Xyla in a great mood.A child’s smile was the purest thing in the world. It could put anyone at ease.No matter what Xyla encountered out there, she’d feel better whenever she came home to Leon and Lynette Batton.Soon, Stanley Batton finished doing the dishes and came back to sit down next to his wife, picking up his daughter carefully.“Mr. Batton, do you have a favorite between your daughter or your son?” one of the nannies asked.“I love both of them equally,” he answered without hesitation at the question. “My children are the most wonderful gifts Xyla has ever given me.”He really didn’t prefer either of his children more than the other.He loved them equally and fairly.In his world, men and women were equals
