Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2001

“Okay. Honey, get in touch with Yaksha and your grandfather tomorrow,” Xyla Quest told her husband, thinking of those two who were more knowledgeable. They could provide some insight into this.

“Yeah, I was thinking of doing just that,” Stanley Batton said.

Knock, knock, knock—

A nurse pushed the door open before standing hesitantly next to it. “Mr. Batton? Ms. Quest? You may see your children now.”

As soon as Xyla heard this, her thoughts were instantly interrupted, feeling joyful as she grabbed Stanley's hands tightly.

“Honey, don’t worry about me now. Go and check on our babies.”

Compared to his wife, he appeared much calmer.

He nodded slightly before looking at the nurse. “Stay here and look after Xyla, please.”

Out of urgency, Xyla started nagging again. “Don’t mind me. Hurry up and check on our children.”

Stanley smiled and gently caressed her cheek. “I’ll check on them, but I won’t neglect you, either. There has to be a difference in terms of priority.”

Xyla instantly felt moved. “In that case, let our children be your priority over me.”

“It should be the other way round,” he countered with a grin before standing up to walk out of her ward.

As he was about to walk past the nurse, he came to a halt and looked at her. “Make sure to take good care of my wife, or you would be in trouble.”

With that, Stanley walked away.

Once he had left, Xyla felt her heart melting again.
