Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2122

Josh Batton, Gary Lakes, and Henry Armstrong ran into the nursery and approached Sebastian Brenand and Rachel Wood in a panic.

"My brother told me you caused a scene at your parents' house. Did you really cut off ties with them? Let me know if you need any help in the future," Josh said.

"You can also come to me if you need any help. In fact, you should come to me first," Gary spoke up.

"No, you should come to me first," Henry said.

Everyone had genuine looks of concern in their eyes.

Sebastian and Rachel felt warm in their hearts upon hearing what they said.

Gary seemed a little taken aback when he saw Rachel covered in wounds.

"How do you feel now?" he immediately asked.

He used to have a slight crush on Rachel before she ended up with Sebastian. He even thought about pursuing her when they had split up some time ago, but he put an end to his crazy thoughts out of consideration for Sebastian's feelings.

As time went on, his feelings for Rachel gradually waned but not vanished completely.

He still felt uneasy at the sight of her covered in wounds.

He couldn't stay calm when he recalled what Stanley had told him about her experiences in the mountains.

Never mind the fact that Rachel was someone he used to love, but he wouldn't be calm even if she was a stranger, either.

Rachel smiled. "Yeah, I feel much better. Don't worry about me."

"Does it still hurt?" he asked.

"It's not too bad."

It hurt a lot at first, but taking painkillers helped.

Gary finally nodded before complaining through gritted teeth. "They're inhumane."

After that, he turned to look at Sebastian. "I would never forgive them if I were you."

"Do you think I would ever forgive them?" Sebastian scoffed. "I'll have nothing to do with the Brenand family from now on. Anyway, I'm not their only son. Without me, life still goes on for them.

"As for me? I'm a grown man. My life will be fine without them. Besides, 1 have everything I need now," he added, gritting his teeth when he mentioned those things.

He didn't dare to imagine how he and Rachel managed to live through the past month during those dark days, no thanks to his parents.

Josh released a long, helpless sigh. "What your parents did was too extreme. It's inhumane."

Even Josh, who usually had a good temperament, couldn't understand his parents.

Henry took a deep breath. "Thankfully, my parents aren't this crazy. Otherwise, I'd go mad by now."

He used to think his parents were quite crazy and didn't think there were even crazier folks. However, his parents were deemed normal after hearing about Sebastian's parents.

At least, Henry's parents would only verbally attack him. They would never do anything to him physically.

In the end, they all quickly come to an agreement, usually.

If his parents did the same things Sebastian's parents did, Henry would go mad and do even crazier things than Sebastian.

Sebastian laughed bitterly. "Be grateful. Your parents are much better than mine in comparison. Look at my parents!"
