Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2003

Hence, he was the older brother to his younger twin sister.

Stanley Batton didn’t reply, but his gaze turned even softer.

However, he couldn’t bring himself to smile.

After staying by his children’s side for half an hour, Stanley finally left the neonatal intensive care unit with his phone and retraced his steps toward Xyla Quest’s ward.

On his way back, he kept replaying the video he recorded of his children, feeling a mix of emotions.

Right then, Xyla felt even more worried in her ward, hoping that her husband would hurry back to show her how their babies looked.

For that reason, she refused to rest.

Soon, Stanley opened the door and entered her room, prompting her to perk up immediately.

“Quick, show me how they look,” she demanded eagerly.

Smiling, Stanley stepped forward to show her the video on his phone.

Seeing her children’s faces, Xyla instantly felt like she was melting on the inside.

She was excited, but her heart ached at the same time.

She was thrilled to see her children, at last, yet knowing how tiny they were with multiple tubes connected to their bodies, it made her heart feel heavy.

They shouldn’t have been in so much pain.

Xyla couldn’t resist lifting her hand and gently touching her children’s faces on the screen. “They must be in a lot of pain.”

“Yeah.”

“My poor babies,” she whispered.
