Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) -
Chapter 1847
Stanley Batton felt increasingly confused from the depths of his heart.
He immediately looked up toward Sophie Kenwick while she cheerfully skipped away.
She seemed so familiar from behind, as well.
As he gazed at her, an unfamiliar scene appeared before his eyes.
He was in a traditional-looking room, where a girl wearing a red silk robe was playing a string instrument with her back to him.
The tune she played was the tune Sophie was humming along just then.
The unfamiliar scene disappeared as suddenly as it appeared, not giving him enough time to verify that the girl was Sophie.
What was going on?
Was he hallucinating, or was this part of his forgotten memories?
Was that girl in the vision Sophie?
If she was, what was the nature of their relationship?
When Xyla Quest saw her husband's distraction, she immediately grasped his hand. "Darling, what's wrong with you? What happened?" she asked softly.
Why did he act so strangely after the young girl showed up?
She had never seen Stanley act this way before.
Stanley suddenly recovered himself as he stopped feeling the intense pain in his heart.
Taking a deep breath, he frowned as he peered at Xyla. "I just feel... I feel like I know Sophie."
"What do you mean?" Xyla seemed shocked.
Stanley told her all about how he felt, confusing her as she could not believe any of it.
"Does that mean Sophie is related to me and even you in our past lives? How were we related? It must have been a deep connection, and it's why you would tear up when you see her in this lifetime," Xyla analyzed carefully.
Countless questions popped up in her mind, making her feel even more curious about everything that happened in the past. Stanley frowned deeply. "Yeah, perhaps."
He wore a grave expression on his face with a contemplative look in his eyes.
"Do you think you might be one of Sophie's family members? Perhaps her father or her brother, or even her lover?" Xyla asked.
Though, Xyla didn't recall Sophie mentioning any lover in her past.
"I don't know." Stanley was still "I just replace her to be
like my heart truly aches for
too," he added. Contenet
Although he wasn't sure how they were
re he felt confident that
they knew each other, or this inten reaction wouldn't happen.
"Anyway, you must have known each other," Xyla said.
"Yeah. Besides, she must be someone who can tug at my heartstrings," he said.
Xyla nodded again in agreement.
"Be nice to her," Stanley told his wife.
If Sophie could tug at his heartstrings, she must have been part of his family in their past lives at the very least.
He wanted to treat her well.
"Yes, I know." Before he had even said so, Xyla had already decided to take care of her.
Sophie had already lost her father and had a painful past. This world needed to treat her kindly and compassionately. "What if she was your lover in your past lives? Would you feel awful if you recalled everything?" Xyla asked jokingly.
