Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 848

“Therefore, the reason our paths crossed isn’t as simple as fate…

“You know what happened next, including my feelings and all. I’ve told you before. I’m telling you all this because I want you to know that I really do love you. Xyla, we’re together because I love you. It has nothing to do with your blood.

“If I were after your blood, how could I not hold back from touching you for two whole years after we got married? I’m with you because I love you. There’s no other reason.”

Stanley Batton kept explaining. He tried his best to express his innermost feelings to Xyla Quest.

Xyla felt at ease after discovering the truth behind their relationship.

As she recalled her heedlessness, fury, and anguish when she first heard the recording, she could not help but laugh at herself.

She could only blame herself for being overwhelmed by resentment. It was a moment of reckless impetuousness that caused her to lose her rationality.

“Fine… I trust you, hubby.” Xyla nodded lightly. She then looked at Stanley worriedly. “Your anemia… Can it be cured?”

Stanley smiled bitterly. “No. I can only go for a blood transfusion when my anemia is playing me up. Do you remember the needle marks on my arm? They’re left behind every time I go for a blood transfusion. In fact, the guy who called me that night wasn’t a doctor but my blood donor.”

“Do you have to go for a blood transfusion so many times when you have anemia?” Xyla asked.

“In the past, once was enough. However, my need for blood has worsened for the past two years,” Stanley lamented.

“Take my blood if you need it in the future,” Xyla said sincerely.

Her truthfulness warmed his heart. “Nah, we’ll talk about that another time. That man alone can satisfy my need for the time being.”

Xyla’s heart ached as she looked at Stanley. “I’ll find a way to cure your disease. You can’t just live like this.”

If his need for blood became increasingly greater, as he said, two people simply might not be able to satisfy his need in the future.

If his condition progressed to that point and they could not find the third person to supply him the blood, he might die.
