Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 1444

When Stanley Batton saw this happening, he instantly panicked...

Just before Xyla Quest hit the ground, Stanley grabbed her at lightning speed. Then, he smoothly caught her in his arms. Although Stanley was usually unshakeable even in the face of adversity, he was now thoroughly unsettled.

"Xyla... Wake up. What happened to you?" Stanley called out, distressed, as he carried Xyla.

However, Xyla didn't react at all.

Stanley immediately ignored everything else and dashed to the backdoor, passing through the crowd with Xyla in his arms...

At this moment, he didn't care about his image or anything else.

He ran like the wind. The concern and panic on his face could no longer be concealed...

When the staff in charge of backdoor security and the bodyguards Stanley brought saw this, they quickly moved forward...

After that, one of the bodyguards immediately opened the helicopter's cabin door for Stanley.

Stanley quickly placed Xyla on the co-pilot's seat. He used the safety belt to fix her body in place so that she wouldn't fall.

Right after that, Stanley quickly got into the helicopter before starting it up. Then, he brought the helicopter into the air and flew toward the municipal hospital.

When the other bodyguards saw this, they quickly got into their respective helicopters.

A few of the leading members immediately contacted other bodyguards who weren't at the scene. These other bodyguards were asked to gather and catch up with Stanley's helicopter. The pilot's cabin was lit up. It was bright as day.

Under the bright light, Xyla's face appeared unusually pale. There wasn't any shade of color on her face.

Stanley's mind became completely chaotic right then. He felt very distraught.

A few minutes later, Xyla was wheeled into the municipal hospital's emergency room.

Stanley interlaced his fingers tightly with his head down as he sat on a long bench outside the emergency room. His heart was beating extremely fast.

He was the kind of person who would remain calm when there was a landslide in front of him.

In the past, Stanley used to think that nothing in the world could make him panic.

However, ever since he met Xyla, he realized that it wasn't the case...

Regardless of how strong one was and how immune one was to all sorts of poison and ammunition, one would still have weaknesses. Meanwhile, Xyla was undoubtedly his weakness.

As long as there was any slight problem with Xyla, Stanley would panic like a three-year-old child.

All his posh demeanor and rationality would fade away completely.

Soon, the one thousand bodyguards Stanley had brought with him previously gathered around him.

These bodyguards knew that Stanley wasn't in a good mood. Hence, they didn't dare to make a sound or say a word.

They lined up in two rows along the long walkway with their heads respectfully lowered.

The atmosphere felt extremely tense.

It was almost pin-drop silence.

Approximately five minutes later, the emergency room's door was opened.

The deputy director, Stephen Harris, walked out and slowly removed his white medical mask.

"How did it go?" Stanley's heart suddenly lifted a little.

Stephen chuckled. He walked up to Stanley. "Congratulations..."

"Congratulations?" Stanley looked confused.

"Your wife, Ms. Xyla, is pregnant..." Stephen said.

At that moment, Stanley felt even more dumbfounded. His mind went blank...

The emotions in the bottom of his heart went from their lowest point to the highest peak instantly.

Within a short period, Stanley went from being utterly depressed to being insanely overjoyed. He couldn't quite process it.
