Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2245

"I don't know how other people get through it, but I really can't take it anymore. Josh, kill me now! I can't stand it. "God, if I did anything wrong, please punish me with death. Don't torture me like this," Annabeth Cates pleaded. At this moment, she could finally understand what it felt like to go through living hell.

She was going mad. She needed release.

It was agonizingly slow as she tried her best to deliver her baby, feeling like she might die on this bed.

"Josh? If I die, please take good care of our child," she cried as she told Josh Batton.

"I can sense I really might not make it. Promise me you'll live a good life with our child after I'm gone," she stuttered with tears falling down her face.

She could feel death approaching her right then and was genuinely afraid that she might leave him soon.

She felt so happy being with Josh all this while, so much so that she was reluctant to leave him.

However, he hastily brushed his tears away to cast a stern gaze at her. "Don't say such things, silly girl. You'll be fine because I won't let anything happen to you."

Outside the delivery room, Wilson Batton, Sharon Lindt, and Xyla Quest were panicking when they heard the voices inside.

Pacing back and forth, Sharon then looked at Xyla. "Why is this happening? Didn't the doctor say it wouldn't hurt?"

"It differs between individuals. Some people are more tolerant toward medicines than others. That's why some medicines wear off much sooner. Unfortunately, Annabeth belongs to the minority," Xyla explained.

"What do we do? She's in so much pain. I wish I could bear the pain on her behalf," Sharon said.

Wilson peered nervously at the closed door with a solemn expression on his face without comments.

Meanwhile, Xyla was also feeling

Instead, she carefully held Sharon's hand. "Dad and Mom, you don't have to worry too much. I believe

Annabeth will be fine. I checked her pulse earlier, and everything seemed normal. She could deliver her baby without a problem. She just needs to bear with the pain."

"I hope so, but I still feel sorry for her. It's not easy being a woman, Xyla," her mother-in-law said.

She sighed, remaining quiet.

She was getting weaker and feeling dizzy.

The voices around her were fading into the distance as if they were coming from a tunnel. It all felt surreal. Soon, she began hearing buzzing sounds in her ear, and she instantly knew she was about to pass out.

She began replaying scenes of how pregnant women died during childbirth in television dramas.

She could already imagine how sad her husband would be after she was gone.

Thinking about this made her heart ache.

Meanwhile, Josh started to panic as he felt her condition worsening, sensing that she would soon pass out.

His mind conjured up many possible negative outcomes, making him feel as if he was on an emotional rollercoaster.
