Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1424

“Sure…” Xyla Quest agreed decisively.

“What about me?” Josh Batton asked gently.

“Everyone gets something,” Xyla said.

Josh smiled a little. He didn’t say anything further…

Stanley Batton also smiled slightly.

“Josh, Stan and Xyla got Dad a watch, and I got Dad a necktie. What did you get him?” Catherine Batton looked at Josh and asked.

Josh slowly retrieved a dark red ring box from his pocket and handed it over to Wilson Batton. “I personally designed this jade ring for you, but I didn’t make it myself… It can’t be compared to Xyla’s gift…”

When Wilson heard this, he immediately opened the box and looked at the content…

There was a simple white, thick, jade ring inside. It had carvings of a dragon on it. Yet, amidst the low-key design were hints of luxury.

Wilson liked it a lot…

“Hmm, not bad…” Wilson said.

“I’m glad you like it… I’ve prepared a piano piece. I’ll play it for you later,” Josh added.

“Oh, sure…” Wilson had a look of approval in his eyes.

“I think a piano piece isn’t enough, is it? I think you need a singer… I’ll sing…” Catherine said.

“Do you even know what I’m playing?” Josh asked.

“Sigh. Just play the birthday song…” Catherine said.

“Fine… As you wish.” Josh’s eyes were filled with affection. After he finished speaking, he gently ruffled Catherine’s hair.

Right then, a few of Josh’s young female fans quickly surrounded him—

“Josh, can we take a picture together?”

“I want a picture too… I want your autograph too…”

“You will…” Xyla gently ruffled Catherine’s hair and said.

From Xyla’s perspective, Catherine was a good-looking, energetic, and adorable girl. Anyone would want to shower her with affection for the rest of their lives…

Catherine nodded. “I hope so. However, some things are hard to predict. For example, I read on the internet today that a girl from a wealthy family suffered from domestic violence after being married into another wealthy family…

“I feel a little terrified of men now…” Catherine said.

“If anyone dares to treat you like that, I’ll kill him.” Stanley’s eyes filled with murderous intent when he said this.

Catherine instantly felt a warm sensation spread in her heart upon hearing this…

She believed that her brother would really do what he said.

“I’m so glad I have a brother like you… If I get bullied, you’ll always have my back…” Catherine said.

“I’ll help you too…” Xyla said softly as she gently ruffled Catherine’s hair once again.
