Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 2349



Chapter 2349



Suddenly, the lights went out in the elevator, plunging Stanley Batton and Xyla Quest into darkness.

It was pitch black.

She instantly tightened her arms around her husband's neck, feeling nervous.

"Oh no, I think there's a power disruption, but it shouldn't affect the elevators. The backup generator should automatically run in the event of a blackout," she said in confusion.

"Don't be nervous. I'll try calling someone to check on it now," Stanley told her as he put her down slowly.

At that moment, the elevator suddenly plunged downwards, making them panic.

She grabbed for Stanley blindly and held on tightly while he hastily pressed against the wall behind him to find balance.

The elevator continued its rapid descent into further darkness.

An eerie feeling made the air feel stale.

Xyla felt goosebumps erupting all over her body. "What's going on? The elevator is out of control. Honey, what do we do? Are we going to die here?"

If the elevator kept descending at this rate, they would die with certainty.

"What on earth should we do?" she shrieked in fear.

"Don't panic and stand next to me. Do what I do. Press your hands against the walls, and use it to protect your spine," Stanley instructed calmly. "Then bend your knees and brace for impact. It will reduce the severity of your injuries," he added, sounding much more grounded than Xyla's anxious tone.

She moved to stand beside him and did as instructed by pressing her back to the wall while keeping her knees bent.

They clasped each other's hands tightly in the darkness.

They had no idea what would happen next. Would the elevator drop to the last floor and shatter all their bones? Or would it stop somewhere in the middle by some miracle?

They could only silently pray for it to stop.

Thoughts of their children and his parents came to mind, people they still needed to look after.

There were too many people in this world they would miss.

They couldn't just leave like that.

"Honey, I'm right here by your side, okay? Don't be afraid." His soothing voice reached her ears in the dark. "No matter what happens, we'll get through it together."

The elevator seemed to have sped up as he spoke. They were still falling.

At this rate, it couldn't possibly stop in the middle.

Xyla turned to look in his direction, her eyes searching for a glimpse of him in the darkness. "I'm so lucky to have met you in this lifetime, Honey. Thank you for giving me such a wonderful life.

"Truthfully, I have no regrets even if I die right now because I have everything I ever wanted. I just can't let our children go," she said in despair.

There were many things she wanted to say at that moment. She was afraid she might never get the chance if she didn't.

"If we die, your parents or Josh and the others will be able to take care of the kids, won't they? What do you think?

"Honey, I love you so much. I honestly do," she added.

Stanley held her hand tightly to reassure her "Don't think the worst, okay? We might turn out just fine. something bad happens, then it is simply our fate. We'll be together even in death. I only feel bad for our children."

As soon as he had finished speaking, the elevator began to vibrate violently.

The entire world seemed to be shaking.

She subconsciously grabbed hold of his hand and maintained her posture.

The condition had worsened in the last few seconds, making them feel nervous and suffocated.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Soon, the vibration ended as abruptly as it had appeared, but the elevator was still falling downward, picking up speed.

There was nothing normal about the entire situation.
