Chapter 2057
"Yeah," Stanley Batton replied.
"I think she''s rted to the plum flower birthmarks on the back of our children''s hands," X Quest said.
"Yeah," he uttered.
"That''s why I think she was telling the truth. My instincts tell me the same," she added.
"Yeah." Appearing to be lost in thoughts, Stanley said very little, and seeing him this way made her a little curious.
"What is it?"
Stanley gently hugged her before holding onto the book in his hand. "I just feel that all this is getting stranger by the second."
X nodded slightly. "Yeah."
Things were getting stranger.
"She said the objects would be able to help us during a crucial moment. What did she mean by that?
"Maybe the silver hairpin contained magic or fairy essence?
"Maybe something sealed inside wille out and help us during a crucial moment?
"And what about the nk book? It doesn''t look like it contains any fairy essence. I can''t see what it''s useful for, but maybe it''s a martial art manual or a cultivation manual?
"Would powerful magic spells appear in the manual during a crucial moment so that we could learn them instantly?
"Clearly, this thing only recognizes you," X expressed.
Stanley seemed to be in deep thought as his eyes narrowed, his emotions hidden.
"Perhaps," he replied after a while.
All of a sudden, they could smell the scent of plum blossoms again, followed by the sound of the phantom voice once more. "Stop making wild guesses and go have dinner. The book belongs to Stanley, and the hairpin belongs to you, X."
Having said that, the fragrant scent disappeared again along with her voice.
"Are you a fairy?" X couldn''t resist asking curiously, but there was no response.
A plum blossom petal fell andnded on X''s hand again.
What was the meaning of this? Was this an answer to her question?
Perhaps it was her way of telling X that she was a fairy.
X held the petal and looked at Stanley with a slight frown. "It''s so strange. Anyway, Honey, let''s keep these objects with us at all times."
At that moment, the nk book in Stanley''s hand started shrinking, shocking them both.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.
Neither could understand all these strange incidents happening one after another.
Soon, the book shrank to the size of an ordinary book-shaped pendant before a piece of bail and a red string appeared.
Apart from the book shrinking and now having a bail, nothing else changed. It was still in paper form.
"Does that mean you should wear it?" X asked.
"Probably," Stanley frowned.
But before he could make a move, the pendant directly flew up to his shoulders before he felt a warm sensation throughout his body.
It was afortable feeling, but he couldn''t quite describe the sensation.
It was as if all the exhaustion and tension in his body had disappeared.
Stanley felt even more rxed than he would after a professional massage.
Furthermore, he felt much more alert.
Before they could say anything else, X''s silver hairpin also transformed into a pendant before a tinum chain appeared on it in the next second. The ne then flew up to her neck, rxing her body to make her feel like she was walking on clouds.
Her mind began to feel energetic.
X and Stanley exchanged nces, then touched their own pendants. Their palms felt warm as the heat emitted from them.
X tried to remain calm and collected despite being shocked. "My pendant feels very warm. What about yours?"
"Mine too," Stanley replied with a deep frown.
X then lifted her hand to remove her pendant for further scrutiny, but the second she touched the bail behind the pendant, she felt a jolt of electricity.
She instantly pulled away.
What was going on? Was the ne not removable?
Why couldn''t she remove it to have a look?
"What''s the matter?" Stanley instantly asked when he saw her strange reaction.
"I wanted to remove the ne to examine it, but then I was struck by a jolt of electricity. I don''t think I''m allowed to remove it. The electricity jolt was very strong. I can''t get close to the bail at all," X exined.
Stanley attempted to remove his own pendant, but he instantly felt a jolt of electricity, which caused him to pull away hastily.
"Did it happen to you, too?" she asked when she saw this.
He nodded.
"Apparently, we aren''t allowed to remove them," X said.
"Never mind, let''s keep them on," he replied.
"Okay."
"I''ll start dinner," he told her.
"All right."
After he proceeded to the kitchen, X sat on the couch as she recalled the strange things that happened earlier.
These incidents probably wouldn''t even happen in novels.
Why would the fairy help her?
Now that X had calmed down, she still couldn''t quite understand it.
The nine-tailed demon fox was a very powerful being. But if it was so powerful, why did it use Betty Starmount to poison her?
Couldn''t it have just used its magic spells to do that?
Was there some reason preventing it from poisoning X on its own?
Or was there something wrong with this demon fox?
More and more questions appeared in her mind.

After their meal, X and Stanley returned to the nursery to find all six nannies and his parents surrounding the children''s beds, gazing lovingly at them.
Sharon Lindt and Wilson Batton repeatedly pushed the wind chimes above their cradles, making the childrenugh continuously.
It was like apletely different world, full of warmth, happiness, joy, and purity.
Whenever X walked into the nursery, her heart would fill with warmth.
All the worries and fears would disappear from her mind.
Sharon immediately stepped forward when she saw X and Stanley entering with a new ne around each of their necks.
"When did you buy these nes? They look great.”
