Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2000

“Oh, how much do our children weigh at birth?” Xyla Quest asked.

She wanted to know a little more about her children’s condition.

Stanley Batton answered truthfully. “Our son currently weighs 1.32 pounds while our daughter weighs 1.31 pounds.”

Xyla’s heart ached when she heard how tiny they were.

They should have been absorbing nutrients inside her body and growing steadily, but they came into this world far too soon.

Weighing so little, they must have been tiny in size.

When Xyla thought of this, she couldn’t help but recall the images of premature babies she had seen before.

Those babies were all tiny, their skin tender and pinkish.

To keep them alive, they had to stay in a womb-like thermal box, connected to numerous tubes that provided them with fluids of sustenance.

Her heart ached at the thought.

Until now, she still couldn’t understand why her babies had to come so soon.

She had been so careful all this time during her pregnancy.

When she checked her pulse in the shower, everything was still normal.

What had gone wrong?

Did somebody do something to her?

“Did the doctor say why the babies came so early?” Xyla wondered out loud.

Stanley frowned slightly. “I asked the Director who had saved you, and he said you might have received external stimuli.

“She said there was nothing in your blood that was harmful to the babies. Hence, something external must have prompted the premature delivery,” he added thoughtfully.
