Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1995

Stanley Batton took the elevator to the floor where Xyla Quest’s VIP emergency unit was located.

At that moment, Stephen Harris was the only person sitting outside the emergency unit.

Seeing Stanley, Stephen immediately stood up to approach him. “She’s already receiving emergency treatment inside. Don’t worry, our doctors are the best in the country. I’m sure they’ll be able to save her.

“The Director is there, too, and he’s an expert in this field.”

Stanley frowned deeply, nodding to acknowledge his words, but he didn’t reply.

He sat down on a bench, his spine stiff with tension, considering how frantic he was still feeling.

He had no idea what kind of torture his wife was going through inside the emergency unit.

He also didn’t know if she would be fine like what Stephen said.

All he could think about now was the image of finding Xyla lying in a pool of blood and her face drained of color.

That scene was now permanently etched onto his mind, leaving him feeling vulnerable.

Stephen let out a long, helpless sigh and sat down next to Stanley as he gently patted his shoulder. “Don’t be like this, Stanley. She’ll be fine.”

“What’s the worst that could happen in a situation like this?” Stanley asked.

“I’m sure nothing bad will happen,” Stephen insisted.

“Tell me.” He was losing his patience.

At this moment, Stanley, who used to be cool-headed, was seemingly losing his mind.

He didn’t look like his old self anymore.

Stephen took a deep breath. “Three lives might be lost,” he said truthfully.

Stanley’s frown deepened.
