Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
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.

While looking at them, Xyla made up her mind.

If someone did poison her, she wanted that person dead.

She would have been fine if the culprit only intended to hurt her, but she couldn't forgive them for hurting her children. Stanley frowned as he thought along the same lines. "If someone poisoned you, I won't let that person off the hook."

He gritted his teeth as he spoke, his entire body emanating a menacing aura.

Xyla didn't reply. Instead, she replayed the video of her children over and over.

The longer she watched it, the more her heart ached.

After twenty minutes, Stanley

grabbed his phone and put it away. "All right, stop watching it. The doctor said you shouldn't be using any mobile devices during this period. Otherwise, your vision might deteriorate in the future," he warned.

She knew he was only doing this for her own good, so she nodded obediently.

"Close your eyes and rest for a while," he said. "It'll be morning soon, and my parents will be here to see our children."

Xyla closed her eyes, but she didn't feel sleepy at all.

As a mother, she wished she could bear all the pain on behalf of her children, knowing how small, weak, and helpless they were.

They shouldn't be going through all this pain.

Mean Stanley sat silently by Ph He turned off the volume on

her bed

his phone and sneakilyon

the video of his children.

He felt the same way she did about them.

Xyla finally fell asleep at around six o'clock in the morning.

Two hours later, Stanley, who hadn't slept at all, called the Batton and the Quest

the phone,

announcing the birth of his children.
