Revenge of the Hideous Lady by Moonlight

Xyla Quest let out a long, helpless sigh as she looked at Sharon Lindt. "Mom, I've nearly become a good-for-nothing person over the years. I don't even know how to do chores anymore." Sharon laughed. "What's the point of knowing how to do such things?"

She turned around and walked to the kitchen, pausing long enough to throw a parting remark to Leon Batton and Lynette Batton. "Take your hardworking mother with you to the living room and have some fruits."

Then, she disappeared into the kitchen.

Leon Batton walked to the couch in the living room and sat down while his sister led their mother by the hand and smiled. "Come on, Mommy."

Lynette was very envious of her mother for being adored by her husband and his parents, even after being married to Stanley Batton all these years.

They treated her the same as ever, or perhaps even better now than before.

Lynette hoped she could be as happy as her mother in the future.

She wanted to be successful and have a loving relationship with her husband with a peaceful relationship with her in-laws.

Xyla helplessly followed her daughter over to the couch and sat down as Lynette began peeling some fruits for her.
