Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 831

Xyla Quest immediately stopped by a deserted corner and leaned against the wall while opening the email.

The email consisted of a short paragraph and an audio clip.

The paragraph stated, "Have you ever wondered why the Batton family would set you up with Stanley Batton? Aren't you curious why the Batton family is so nice to you? Click on the audio clip, and you'll know the answer..."

Xyla was too stunned to move.

In fact, she had never really understood why the Batton family insisted on her marriage with Stanley.

She had always been curious about why her master insisted she got a marriage certificate with Stanley.

Nonetheless, she failed to figure out the main reason back then, and she had slowly forgotten about it as time slipped by.

Now that she pondered about it, everything seemed fishy indeed...

Xyla recalled the day her master gave her a blood test. He did make a very peculiar request immediately after he obtained the blood test result. He said that she had to marry Stanley if she wanted to cure her disease.

Lured by curiosity, Xyla quickly put on her earphone and tapped the audio clip attached to the email.

"Be nice to Xyla. You know that her blood is what you need the most. Your life is bound to Xyla." It was Ron Batton's voice.

"Speaking of which, she's fortunate indeed. If it weren't for her blood, our family wouldn't even have accepted her in the first place." Stanley was the one speaking this time.

"Oh, that's for sure. Look at her. Do you think I'll treat her this well if it weren't for her blood? You could've found a woman who's able to match our family's standard," Ron hissed.

"Of course. She's utterly unattractive. Too bad she has a rare blood type like mine. It can't be helped. Ugh, it's really annoying to face a woman I don't even love every single day," Stanley complained. The harsh truth pierced through Xyla's ears as though it was a sharp blade, smashing her head as though it was a thousand-pound boulder.

The conversation ended.

Xyla felt like her brain was going to explode at any second. She could recognize their voices. There was no mistake...

She was a hundred percent certain that it was their voices.

Their conversation blew her mind and ripped her heart apart.

The sad truth had just dragged her down from heaven, sending her to the bottomless hell.

Stanley had decided to marry her and spoil her like a princess simply because he needed her blood.

He was kind, understanding, and clingy, not because he loved her.

It was all driven by his need for her blood. It was all because her blood could save his life.

Xyla finally knew how Stanley felt about her. He was annoyed by her.

He pretended to be nice to her because what flowed within her was what he needed the most right now.

At that moment, Xyla felt like her heart was being slashed by a knife mercilessly, leaving a deep and bloody cut. The pain was beyond words. The buzzing in her brain disconcerted and confounded her.

She could not think straight...

Emily Quest instantly noticed the grief in Xyla's eyes when she passed by her.

The corner of her lips subconsciously curved upward into an evil smirk. 'Poor Xyla, you must've listened to the recording, right?' she thought.

As she thought about that, the smile on her face widened.

She knew Xyla very well.

If Xyla found out that the Batton family was nice to her simply because they needed her blood, she would definitely be in despair.

When the time came, she would divorce Stanley.

After the divorce, her light would fade, and she would fall from grace!

The more distressed Xyla was, the more excited Emily felt.
