Revenge of the Hideous Lady by Moonlight

Stanley Batton calmly caressed Xyla Quest's face. "It's okay. I'll be fine once I get used to it."

"What can you do if you don't get used to it?" Sharon Lindt asked.

He was speechless.

Seeing that he couldn't retort, Sharon held Xyla's hand and spoke to her. "Xyla, you just delivered not too long ago. Even though you're done with postpartum recovery, I still think you shouldn't tire yourself out. "From now on, you shouldn't get out of bed so early and try to leave work earlier, too. You don't have to do all those things yourself. Leave all that to Stanley.

"Besides, he is a man, and men seem to have more energy than women anyway," she added.

Xyla couldn't resist laughing when she heard this.

She genuinely felt that Sharon treated her more like her biological daughter than her actual son.

Stanley didn't seem to oppose the idea, though. He nodded in agreement, gently wrapping one arm around her shoulders. "This, I can agree with."

"Did you hear that? Your husband agrees," his mother sounded triumphant.

Xyla shook her head. "No way. I've observed the required postpartum recovery period and am feeling fine. It's better that I deal with work myself."
