Chapter 831


    X 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…”


    X 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.


    Nheless, 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…


    X 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, X quickly put on her earphone and tapped the audio clip attached to the email.


    “Be nice to X. You know that her blood is what you need the most. Your life is bound to X.” 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


    epted her in the first ce.” 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


    comined.


    The harsh truth pierced through X’s ears as though it was a sharp de, smashing her head as


    though it was a thousand-pound boulder.


    The conversation ended.


    X 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.


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    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.


    X 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, X felt like her heart was being shed 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 X’s eyes when she passed by her.


    The corner of her lips subconsciously curved upward into an evil smirk. ‘Poor X, you must’ve


    listened to the recording, right?’ she thought.


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


    She knew X very well.


    If X 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 X was, the more excited Emily felt.
