She now believed that Wilson wanted to go to Josh Batton's concert all along, but he never made that decision because he was too prideful.
When Xyla brought it up today, Wilson immediately agreed to her request. Firstly, he probably did so because he respected her. Secondly, he might have agreed to it because he wanted to go anyway, and Xyla happened to have offered him the opportunity to do so without jeopardizing his pride.
By the tthe two of them arrived downstairs, Stanley Batton and the rest were already seated on the couch, eating fruits.
Catherine Batton was sharing news about #JayTyCP, a celebrity couple she recently beca huge fan of, with Sharon Lindt. The two of them were having a great ttalking about it.
Catherine repeatedly showed Sharon pictures of the two celebrities. They seemed completely engrossed. Meanwhile, Stanley appeared completely uninterested. He was eating fruits while he looked at his phone. The way Catherine and Sharon were worshipping the celebrity couple made them appear almost like any regular pair of mother and daughter.
Xyla had never expected her mother-in-law to be accepting of a gay couple. Logically speaking, people close to Sharon's age were all relatively more conservative when it cto things like homosexuality. "What are you two talking about?" Xyla approached them and sat in between Stanley and Sharon. Stanley quickly looked away from his phone to Xyla's face.

They're probably going crazy over a celebrity couple. Look at your mother. She's already very old but she's still going crazy over a gay couple like a young person," Wilson said.
"That shows how Mother is keeping up with the times," Xyla said.
"Indeed, she is," Wilson said as he looked at Sharon affectionately.
Xyla couldn't help but think about how being a good husband was a trait passed on from one generation to the next in the Batton family.
"Mother, most people your age don't really buy into this..." Xyla said.
"That's because they don't understand it and have a conservative mindset. Isn't this great? Xyla, aren't these two cute guys from your company? I've been voting for them recently. I have spent a lot of money.. I want to make sure they walk down the aisle together.
"I will financially support them, and I'll make sure they receive money every day. They're a real couple, aren't they, Xyla?" Sharon added.
"If you think they are, then they are," Stanley said.
Xyla knew that Stanley answered in such a way because he didn't want to crush Sharon and Catherine's hopes.
The worst thing that could happen to someone who worshipped celebrity couples was being told that the couple they rooted for were only faking it.
Hence, Xyla decided not to say anything.
"I think it must be real. We've cacross the real deal this time, Mother," Catherine said excitedly.
"Yeah. It must be so," Sharon said while repeatedly nodding before looking at Xyla.
"Oh yeah. What did you talk to your father-in-law about?" Sharon asked.
Sharon couldn't resist her own curiosity.
"To be honest, it wasn't anything major. I was just asking Father to attend Josh's concert," Xyla said truthfully. "He rejected you, didn't he?" Sharon frowned.

Wilson immediately coughed in an awkward manner.
"Are you serious? I've asked him multiple times, but he always said no. Were you actually able to succeed upon the first attempt?" Sharon seemed shocked. "I had to respect my daughter-in-law," Wilson said.
"My daughter-in-law is the best," Sharon said before holding Xyla's hand tightly.
