Chapter 2042


    X Quest was now an orphan.


    Stanley Batton cradled her face when he saw that she had stopped crying. "Honey, let''s go back, all right? Don''t be sad anymore. Tell me, what can I do for you to feel better? Hmm?"


    If Stanley could do anything to make her happy, he would surely do it.


    He would go through hell for her.


    However, X closed her eyes helplessly without uttering a word.


    Right then, Yaksha, who had been silent all this while, spoke up. "You''ve been sitting for a long time, and your wound can''t handle it. Let''s head back."


    Slowly opening her eyes, she gazed helplessly at him. "Can I sit here for ten more minutes? I just want to look at my father."


    She would never see his face again after leaving this time.


    Her father''s corpse would be cremated, turning into a pile of ash.


    The face that made X feel at peace would forever be gone from this world.


    Yaksha nodded helplessly, letting her have her way.


    Ten minutester, he activated the teleport amulet without asking her permission.


    Soon, X returned to the ward.


    At the time, Sharon Lindt was feeding milk to the twins by the cradle.


    Seeing X crying upon her return, Sharon''s heart ached painfully again.


    She continued to feed the children as she spoke. “Stan, be quick and carry X onto the bed.”


    Stanley obeyed, promptly carrying X and carefully cing her on the bed.


    X closed her eyes in silence on her pillow, blocking everything out.


    Everyone understood how she was feeling, so nobody said a word as they allowed her to process her feelings.


    Time would be able to heal everything, and in a matter of days, X should feel much better.

    Then, she turned to address Yaksha. "Will you please check on X''s wound?"


    Yaksha didn''t reply but proceeded to check on her stitches, finding it swollen but still intact.


    He was relieved to see this.


    Beep, beep, beep-


    Stanley''s phone rang right then, causing him to take it out, ncing at the screen.


    Seeing Zack Cassidy''s name, he instantly picked it up. "What is it?"


    "Betty Starmount is dead," Zack dered.


    Stanley erupted into anger when he heard that. "Dead?"


    Betty Starmount still had a wealth of secrets that awaited his discovery. How could she have died?


    Meanwhile, X immediately turned


    to look at Stanley''s face when sh


    overheard the conversation.


    Betty was dead?


    How could she have died just like that?


    Noticing her awareness, Stanley immediately turned on the loudspeaker.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.


    X couldn''t help but sneer when she heard him.


    Love?


    Was that how Betty loved someone?


    Why did she kill Jeremy Quest if she loved him?


    "How did she die?" Stanley asked.
