Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1342

Stanley Batton and Xyla Quest’s phones’ screen showed the same contents.

There were still all sorts of news reports about the helicopter bombing incident at Riverdale Market—

“Currently, investigations are underway on the terrorist attack at Riverdale Market.”

“During the Riverdale Market’s terrorist attack, fifty people suffered from serious injuries, ten people suffered from minor injuries, and eighty people died…”

Every number that came into sight made Xyla’s heart ache intensely.

Suddenly, Xyla’s hands started shaking uncontrollably.

When Stanley saw this, he carefully pulled Xyla into his arms.

It was as if he was protecting a fragile clay doll.

“Xyla… Don’t be like this. I’m begging you…” Stanley pleaded humbly. His eyes were filled with a gentle and sad look.

“Honey, I feel truly awful…” Xyla’s voice was already extremely hoarse.

“I know, but all of this isn’t your fault…” Stanley said.

By now, Xyla felt that she didn’t even have the energy to speak. Hence, she didn’t speak anymore.

She knew that the root cause of this incident was principally the murderer.

However, it still happened because of her after all. She didn’t feel that it had nothing to do with her.

That was why she still couldn’t stop hating herself.

Those people were dragged into this by her…

Ding-dong, ding-dong—

Right then, the doorbell started ringing.

The sudden noise interrupted the extremely tense atmosphere in the living room. It also interrupted their conversation.

Stanley carefully pulled Xyla away. He then slowly walked over to the door where the doorbell monitor was located and had a glance…

“These external wounds are quite serious…” Georgie added.

“This is nothing compared to what those people went through,” Xyla said and laughed bitterly. “Why are you here?” she asked.

“I saw the news. When I saw that you were injured and was brought to the municipal hospital, I quickly went to the hospital. In the end, the hospital staff told me that you had already returned home. After that, I rushed over…” Georgie said.

Georgie was still panting when she spoke. She had a concerned look in her eyes.

Xyla immediately felt a warmth in her heart when she heard this. “Georgie… I’m sorry for making you worry.”

“What an idiot! What are you saying?” Georgie said.

Xyla smiled bitterly. She didn’t say anything further. Instead, she closed her eyes again.

“Georgie… Please tell her not to be sad anymore…” Stanley said with a troubled expression on his face.

“Are you sad because you witnessed people getting hurt and dying?” Georgie asked.
