Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 1999

"Take me to see our children later," Xyla Quest told him.

She needed to check on her babies, as she was worried about their condition after being prematurely born at six and a half months along.

She missed them dearly.

Stanley Batton frowned. "I'll check on them on your behalf and take some pictures for you. You've just come out of a major operation and still have a healing wound on your stomach. You shouldn't be out of bed, walking around. The wound might tear open."

Xyla nodded helplessly in agreement before telling him, "In that case, record a video for me."

"Okay. How do you feel now? Does your stomach hurt a lot?" he asked with a look of adoration and tenderness in his eyes.

Stanley once watched a video of cesarean delivery, so he knew how much it would hurt for a woman to go through something like that.

Xyla shook her head. "It's fine, I can take it. It's probably because of the anesthesia, right?"

"Yeah," he uttered before holding her hand and placing it against his face. "Xyla, thank you. I'm so glad you're fine. I wouldn't know what to do otherwise."

She instantly felt her heart growing warm when she heard his words.

She began to sniffle. "You must have been terrified, my love."

"Yeah, thank God I returned to our room in time. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare imagine the consequences."

In hindsight, Stanley felt extremely terrified when he thought of what happened back then.

If he had continued working and didn't notice the time, he couldn't imagine what would have become of Xyla and his babies.

He shivered in fear whenever the scene replayed in his mind.

Xyla felt the same when she heard this.

She didn't dare think what could have happened to her if Stanley had come to her rescue any later.

What could have happened to her babies?

"Regardless of what happened, I'm glad everything turned out fine. I thought we'd have to bid farewell to our children forever today." Xyla broke into a cold sweat when she considered everything that occurred

"All right, let's not dwell on it so much and focus on your recovery, okay?" Stanley said. "The doctor said your body is weak right now, so you should get plenty of rest. You'll have to stay in the hospital the rest of the week and recuperate at home this coming month.

"Put your work aside for now, and I'll get someone professional to take care of everything for you, okay?" he added. Xyla nodded obediently.

It was a unique situation, so naturally, she had to heed her husband's advice.

Work was important, but her health and family were equally important.

She knew that Stanley would be able to take care of everything.

"I'll call my parents to tell them that their grandchildren have been born," he said.

When Xyla heard this, she

immediately tugged on his hand et

"Let's not do that now at this hour. We should tell them tomorrow morning."

She only wanted to have her husband by her side for now.

She didn't want to make his parents worry.

"All right then," Stanley agreed. "How do you feel now? Do you feel weak? Do you want some water?"

Xyla shook her head. "I'm not thirsty. Of course, I feel weak, but that's to be expected. I'll be fine after a while."

She was more worried about her babies than herself right now.

If she had been physically able, she would've gone to see them right away.
