Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1908

“Xyla, please talk to your father. I was worried sick, but he refused to go to the hospital. ” Betty Starmount seemed genuinely worried.

Xyla Quest was quite pleased to see her being considerate, regardless of whether her concern was real or fake.

It was good that someone was around to take good care of her father.

Even if it was only on the surface, it was good enough that Betty made it seem genuine.

Xyla frowned and looked at Jeremy Quest. “Dad, you’re not getting any younger, and your health is not the same as in the past. If you don’t want to go to the hospital, you can come to me. I can help you.”

“Forget it, I refuse to eat those weird medicines. I’d rather go to the hospital,” Jeremy declared.

“In that case, let’s go to the hospital,” she agreed.

However, her father shook his head helplessly. “I don’t think that’s necessary. I know my body well enough.”

“I don’t care. You will come with me to the hospital after breakfast,” Xyla insisted with a determined and irrefutable attitude.

“It’s fine, I feel much better than I did yesterday,” Jeremy replied when he saw how serious Xyla seemed.

“Are you going or not?” she asked again.

Jeremy had no choice but to raise his hands in surrender when he saw how persistent his daughter was.

“Fine, fine. I’ll do as you say, all right?” he sighed gently.

Xyla smiled in relief upon hearing that. “That’s more like it.”

“I’ll take you there personally,” Stanley Batton said.

“It’s fine, Stan. You’re so busy with work. I’ll get Betty to take me,” Jeremy said.

“Work isn’t as important as your health,” Stanley said.

Stanley’s words instantly warmed Xyla and Jeremy’s hearts.

Seeing how speedily Xyla moved, Betty couldn’t help but step forward. “Xyla, how have you been feeling recently? You’ve been pregnant for quite some time now. Do you feel anything different?”

Xyla shook her head without hesitation. “Nothing feels different. I still feel very relaxed, almost as if I wasn’t pregnant.

“I feel much better now than when I first got pregnant. I had a lot of pregnancy symptoms back then, but there’s nothing now,” Xyla added.

“Have you gone for any periodic pregnancy checkups? It’s important that you do so. Someone told me once that her kid was born in a deformed state because she didn’t get herself periodically checked,” Betty said.

Xyla instantly laughed. “Don’t worry, I’ve been doing so all this while. Everything is normal with the baby.”

When Betty heard this, her smile instantly froze without anybody noticing.

Everything was normal.

How could everything be normal?

That didn’t make any scientific sense.
