Revenge of the Hideous Lady by Moonlight

From Jeremy Quest's perspective, Xyla Quest could understand how lonely it'd be after a person had retired.

This was especially the case when his daughter couldn't be by his side all the time.

Although Jeremy described everything through rose-colored glasses, it was difficult to predict things in the future.

Jeremy might think this way, but Betty Starmount might not...

"I promise I won't spend too much of our family's money on her. Also, I promise that you're the one I love the most no matter what...

"Also, I know what you're worried about. Don't worry. I promise I won't get her pregnant. I won't allow her to put a claim on our assets by having children...

"There will be a fixed quota on how much I give her. I won't give her endlessly. Moreover, I won't end up having a child who'd fight against you for my inheritance after I die..." Jeremy intentionally lowered his voice and spoke with a determined look on his face.

"I didn't object because of this... I don't really care that much about our family's inheritance. What I'm worried about is that you'll sink deeper and deeper. Then, if you accidentally fall into her trap, you'll be sad and depressed...

"Compared to your money, I'm more worried about you..." Xyla added.
