Revenge of the Hideous Lady by Moonlight

From the smell, Xyla Quest guessed that it was probably herbal chicken soup or the likes of it.

Betty Starmount helped Xyla move the stuff onto the floor before holding Xyla's hand and leading her to the pot. "I made herbal chicken soup just for you. Have a taste..." "It's great..." Betty added.

'There's something special added to it. You ought to drink more of it.' Betty thought to herself.

Xyla chuckled. "Okay... Sure."

"Ms. Quest... I mean, Xyla... It's tough being pregnant, isn't it?" Betty asked.

"Not too bad. I haven't had any symptoms lately. I've been able to eat, sleep, and drink well..." Xyla said truthfully.

When Betty heard this, she secretly clenched her fists tightly. "I see... Have you felt uncomfortable in any way? I heard that many pregnant women feel uncomfortable during this period..."

Xyla shook her head. "I did feel uncomfortable in the beginning, but it's gone away completely now. Not only that, I feel just as healthy as I was before I was pregnant. My appetite has gotten better..." Betty secretly clenched her fists tightly again when she heard this...

How was this possible?

Xyla had been having breakfast with them recently.

Every morning, Betty would add something to the bird's nest she cooked for Xyla.

Xyla consumed all of them each time.

It'd been such a long time. How could there not be any reaction?
